Red Light Therapy FAQs

  • What is Red Light Therapy?

    Red Light Therapy (RLT) is a treatment that uses low-level wavelengths of red light to penetrate the skin, promoting healing, reducing inflammation, and stimulating collagen production. It’s commonly used to improve skin health, reduce wrinkles, and treat various skin conditions.

  • How does the Illuminate Red LED device work?

    The Illuminate Red LED device emits red light at specific wavelengths (660 nanometers), which penetrate the skin’s surface to target the cells beneath. The Illuminate is built to stimulate different cells in the body. They absorb light wavelengths, creating a build-up of energy that improves skin healing, boost new cell growth, and enhances the rejuvenation of the skin. The light activates the mitochondria in the body’s cells, accelerating ATP production and therefore boosts cellular recovery and restoration. This stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, reduces inflammation, and accelerates the healing process.

    The device uses 1800 LEDs to deliver 6,000 joules of energy in just five minutes, ensuring quick and effective treatments safely.
