How does LED light help aging skin?

Visible red LED light penetrates to a depth of about 8-10 mm, and because of the skin's high blood and water content, red light is readily absorbed and can deliver enough energy to stimulate a response from the body to heal itself. Red light is beneficial in treating problems close to the surface such as wounds, cuts, scars, trigger and acupuncture points, and infections.

LED photons are absorbed in the skin and underlying tissue to trigger biological responses and beneficial changes. Although the exact mechanism of action is still being studied, it is known that this light increases oxygen and blood flow, which facilitates wound healing.

The application of LED light is a non-invasive therapy that activates skin cells with low-level, non-thermal light energy. LED therapy converts light to energy within the skin cells—similar to the process of photosynthesis in plants. It stimulates the cytochromes (a protein that responds to color) prompting the skin’s fibroblasts to produce collagen and elastin proteins.

This therapy is one of the only non-invasive tools available today that can reverse the visible signs of skin aging. LED is recommended to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, enlarged pores, crow's feet, irregular skin tone, and other signs of skin aging.

VISIBLE red light penetrates to a depth of about 8-10 mm, and is beneficial in treating problems close to the surface such as wounds, cuts, scars, trigger and acupuncture points, and is particularly effective in treating infections.

The RED light is absorbed by the skin and used as a source of energy to stimulate fibroblast cell activity in the skin, which increases the production of collagen and Elastin—the proteins responsible for your skin's tone and elasticity.
