Red Light
Increase blood and lymph circulation
Increase collagen synthesis
Stimulate release of ATP
Energy source for: DNA replication, Cell metabolic rate, Cell oxygenation and respiration
NASA and US Navy found this light to improve healing by 50% and fibroblast activity by 155% Fibroblast cells are responsible for collagen and elastic production.
Near Infra Red Light
Non thermal, although invisible, near infrared penetrates deeper than red light, which supports healing deeper in the skin reaching muscle tissue and soft tissue.
Decrease risk of Post Inflammatory Pigmentation, therefore better for darker skin types.
Increase cell metabolism, protein synthesis (including collagen) and cellular detoxification since cells have enhanced function.
Reduces inflammation and pain (good for rosacea, post surgery etc)
Triggers growth and regeneration in the cells
Lower ATP production, although higher reduction of ROS
Blue Light
76 – 80 % improvement in acne
10% better results than using Benzyl Peroxide
Damages and kills bacteria
Slows sebaceous activity
