A beginner-friendly guide to red light therapy — how it works, what it helps with, and what to expect.

Red light therapy uses "low-energy red light wavelengths, typically between 600 and 700 nanometers, to stimulate the mitochondria in your cells." The treatment avoids heat and UV radiation.

The therapy addresses "wrinkles, scars, hyperpigmentation, and promoting collagen production" plus "joint pain, muscle strains, tendon injuries, and neuropathy." It accelerates healing and reduces inflammation.
Device Types
