Red Light Therapy for Anti-Aging: What you need to know
Color therapy, also called LED treatment or chromotherapy, is one of the best ways to treat and fix health problems. Medical scientists say that the main ideas behind it came from ancient Egypt. The Egyptians used highly colored jewels that they dipped into cups filled with drinks of the same color and then gave to patients to help them feel better.
Today, light therapy, counseling, art therapy, and beauty makeup all use the healing effects of different colors.
Some facts
LED therapy is a way to take care of your face using light waves of different lengths. NASA first made it to test how plants grow on shuttle trips. Later, they found that it could also help heal wounds. Some estheticians use LED treatments today to support the skin of older people to grow back. The red light slows down the aging process.
Unlike lasers, LED treatments are painless, non-invasive, and do not require a recovery period. In addition, they can even affect mood: for example, studies have shown that LED treatment is effective for seasonal affective disorder, or “winter depression,” caused by a lack of sunlight.
Biologists have found that cells reproduce 150-200% faster under the influence of red LEDs. The light increases the amount of energy inside the cells (in the form of adenosine triphosphate, or ATP), speeding up the recovery process.
For those who want to stop and reduce the signs of aging, red and orange LEDs are the best options.
Effectiveness and indications for LED therapy
Color therapy works because the skin and the body, as a whole, can naturally receive light of a specific range and change their energy states when exposed to them. Consequently, LED therapy can help with a wide range of problems (by correcting them or making them less prominent).
- Skin that is dull, saggy, and getting older
- Age-related spots
- Acne
- Problems with the sweat and oil glands
- Inflammation, redness, peeling, allergic responses, and itching are all signs of skin problems
- Couperose
- Pathologies of the skin (according to symptoms)
- Wounds that don't heal well
- Skin and soft tissue accidents, sores, and scars from the past
- Care after harsh treatments and plastic surgery
- Physically active substances to be given through the skin, etc.
The average length of a session with a device by the Lumia is between 20 and 40 minutes at most. For a good result, follow the recommended instructions that should be adjusted to a client's needs.
The problem usually needs 6–12 LED therapy sessions, which are done once every 2–3 days.
How safe it is and what it does
LED treatment is generally safe. The process does not hurt or burn and does not cause strong side effects.
Sometimes, some side effects arise, but they last only a short time. Some of them are the following:
- inflammation
- rashes
- the skin is abnormally red
LED therapy is proven to be a safe way to treat acne, eczema, aging skin, facial cuts, and other skin problems.
