Red Light Therapy Enhances Youthful Looking Skin
One of the most common uses of red light therapy is in cosmetics. People are interested in red light therapy for its ability to boost collagen production. Collagen is most known to assist with skins elasticity, but it's also great to help heal tissues and wounds. When the skin is exposed to specific wavelengths of red light, it can penetrate the skin and reach the deeper layers where collagen is produced. This exposure can stimulate fibroblasts, the cells responsible for collagen synthesis, leading to increased production of new collagen fibers. This means its great for fine lines and wrinkles!
Red light therapy can be used for other cosmetic benefits, such as:
Hair growth
Reduce acne
Erase wrinkles and fine lines
