How Light Therapy Works
Think of it as a battery charger for compromised cells . . .
Light source emits photons
Photons are absorbed in the mitochondria and cell membranes
Causing an elevation of ATP synthesis
Increased ATP causes a cascade of metabolic events resulting in biochemical & cellular changes…


Cells Affected by LED Therapy
Fibroblast Cells:Â (red, a little IR). Produces collagen and elastin fibers in connective tissue.
Keratinocytes:Â (both red and IR equally). Provides structural strength to the skin, hair and nails. Responsible for skin clarity, tone and texture.
Mast Cells:Â (red, near IR). Essential for inflammatory reactions.
Neutrophil Cells:Â (leukocytes): (little red, mostly IR). Are the first line of defense in the inflammatory process. Adequate numbers are important to protect the body from infection.
Macrophage Cells:Â (leukocytes): (red and IR). Play a vital role in activating specific immune responses.
P. acnes bacteria:Â (blue) causes bacteria to destroy itself.
