LED PHOTO-BIO-STIMULATION THERAPY

The basis for the LED therapy is absorption of light by mitochondria resulting in biostimulation of various processes in the tissues. LED has been shown to have healing properties and is be used as an add-on after laser procedures, as a stand alone anti-aging treatment or an adjuvant therapy for acne, rosacea, pigmentation, scars and stretchmarks, skin inflammation, hypopigmentation including vitiligo as well as dandruff and hair loss.  LED  antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and pain relieving properties. It speeds up wound healing and resolution of swelling and bruises.

Light is measured in wavelength and is expressed in nanometers (nm).  Different wavelengths have different chromophores and can have various effects on tissue.  Wavelengths are referred to using associated colors such as: blue (400-470 nm), green (470-550 nm), red ( 630-700 nm) and NIR ( 700-1200 nm). The longer the wavelength the deeper penetration into the tissus.  The various cell and tissue types in the body have unique light absorption characteristics, each absorbing light at different wavelengths.  Red penetrates deeper whilst blue acts more superficially
