Photo Light Therapy Explained


Light therapy (also referred to as phototherapy or photolight therapy) is an emerging science that is allowing scientists, doctors and skin care professionals to achieve dramatic results in skin care.

Phototherapy is one of the fastest growing technologies in advanced skin care. While the science has many names including Light Therapy, IPL, LED Treatment, and photodynamic treatment, each of these disciplines focuses on harnessing the healing power of light.


Phototherapy is based on the science of isolating specific wavelengths of light within the light spectrum for a variety of treatments and applications. Blue and red light therapies have been proven to be a safe and effective treatment for acne and aging. Other light wave lengths can be used to relieve pain, treat mood disorders, regenerate or remove hair.
