EXACTLY HOW & WHY RED LIGHT THERAPY MAKES SKIN LOOK YOUNGER
/1. Increases circulation and the formation of new capillaries. This brings an immediate healthy glow to the skin, and paves the way for you to maintain a more youthful and healthier appearance, as new capillaries mean more oxygen and nutrients to each skin cell every day.
2. Increases lymph system activity. This reduces swelling and puffiness. These results would also be noticed after the first and each subsequent treatment. Again, this paves the way for less puffiness in the future as the lymph system is actually made more efficient over time, resulting in healthier skin overall.
3. Stimulates the production of collagen and fibroblasts. Collagen is what is responsible for the elasticity, firmness, and fullness of your skin. The increased production of collagen and fibroblasts is what will smooth out your fine lines and wrinkles, smooth the texture of the skin, and reduce pore size over time. Collagen cells grow slowly, so be patient, and expect to see “before and after” results at about three months of consistent treatment.
4. Causes the release of ATP, or raw cellular energy. This provides energy to the cells to make the most of the additional blood, oxygen, nutrients, detoxification, growth, and repair already initiated by your red light therapy treatments.
The cells and tissue in the dermis layer of skin will convert light energy into ATP (adenosine triphosphates), which is the fuel for the cell. The fibroblast cells in the dermis layer have the job of producing collagen (which give the skin fullness or that plumped look) and elastin (which gives the skin it’s flexibility, it’s ability to spring back).
Red Light Therapy gives the cells the fuel, and the fibroblast cells start to produce collagen and elastin as if we were young again.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM RED LIGHT THERAPY?
Red light therapy is not an instant solution, however many people have seen some effects from the very first session. It will take several treatments normally over a few weeks to see full results. However you can expect to see considerable improvement over the course of treatment with:
Smoother skin tone
Reduction of large pores
Reduction of age spots
Reduction of wrinkles
Reduction of crow’s feet
Reduction of fore head and under eye wrinkles
Repair of sun damage
Fading of scars and stretch marks
Return of a healthy glow
