Red Light Therapy* (RLT) alone, though it is recommended with other treatments, offers significant benefits for improving skin appearance and cellular function.
When used following microneedling, Red Light Therapy enhances treatment effects by promoting faster healing, increasing collagen production, and optimizing the skin’s rejuvenation process.
Benefits of Red Light Therapy
Skin Appearance Improvement: RLT is known to treat wrinkles, redness, acne, scars, and other signs of aging, enhancing the skin’s appearance .
Cellular Stimulation: It acts on mitochondria within cells, boosting their energy. This increases the cells’ efficiency in repairing skin, promoting new cell growth, and enhancing skin rejuvenation. RLT stimulates collagen production, increases fibroblast production (which makes collagen), improves blood circulation to the tissue, and reduces cell inflammation.
Benefits of Red Light Therapy Following Microneedling:
- Enhanced Collagen Production: After microneedling, RLT can further stimulate collagen and elastin production, crucial for firm and healthy skin. This helps reduce signs of aging like wrinkles and lines.
- Accelerated Healing: Post-microneedling, the skin may experience redness and inflammation. RLT aids in quicker healing and reducing inflammation, as well as decreasing discomfort and potential side effects by boosting blood flow and aiding muscle relaxation.
- Serotonin Production: RLT stimulates serotonin production, promoting happiness, health, and quality sleep, which further slows the signs of aging and wrinkles.
- Supports Rejuvenation Process: RLT, especially with red and near-infrared wavelengths, enhances the rejuvenation process of the skin post-microneedling by stimulating collagen production and improving overall skin health. Red wavelengths aid in tissue repair, while near-infrared wavelengths promote cellular regeneration and reduce inflammation.
- Optimizing Cellular Response: Chromophores in the skin absorb the light, leading to changes in cell proliferation, inflammation, and collagen production. This includes increased ATP production, modulation of reactive oxidative species, increased collagen, enhanced microcirculation, and blood flow. RLT activates factors that increase collagen type I and reduce matrix metalloproteinase, supporting increased collagenesis.
