WHAT IS RED LIGHT THERAPY?

Definition:

It’s the application of specific wavelengths of light ---- tissue to obtain therapeutic benefits.


Originally developed by NASA for astronauts who could become injured or ill on long-term space missions, light emitting diode (or LED) therapy is used today as a safe and natural method of treatment for a variety of skin and pain conditions including acne, wrinkles, aging skin, chronic pain, and wound healing.


How it works:

Think of it as photosynthesis for our animals… Light is absorbed by our cells and increases ATP. Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) is an energy-carrying molecule found in the cells of all living things. ATP captures energy obtained from the light and releases it to fuel other cellular processes. It creates a cascade of metabolic events resulting in biochemical & cellular changes and promotes cell renewal and repair.


Light Spectrum:

Different wavelengths reach different cell types at different tissue depths. The Revive PRO IR Laydown uses three different lights with LED technology: Red 630 and 660 nm, and Near Infrared 850 nm. In addition, full body red light is achieved through low pressure light technology and emits between 630 and 680 nm. Working simultaneously to manage a variety of skin and musculoskeletal conditions, the perfect combination of these three light spectrums ensures that light-absorbing molecules will respond to the different wavelengths of light energy, resulting in a targeted increase in cellular activity at different tissue depths

Four Requirements For Efficacy:

Over a century of expertise in light-emitting technologies has led us to produce perfectly sized and balanced equipment, delivering the right amount of energy and light to the skin for the best results. There are four keys to a successful light therapy treatment: Specific wavelengths, treatment time and frequency, energy delivered, and proximity to the skin.

FAQs

WHAT IS RED LIGHT TECHNOLOGY? Red Light Technology is an application of red light to the entire body for recovery and rejuvenation. The benefits of red light were originally discovered by NASA to help astronauts effectively recover and recharge their bodies in space. Red Light is defined on the visible light spectrum in wavelength measuring from 630-680 nanometers, which is the precise wavelength used in the Red-Light Technology series by Revive.


IS RED LIGHT SUITABLE FOR ANYONE? The Red Light treatment is suitable for all skin types. People with low blood pressure or who are pregnant, suffer from epilepsy or increased light sensitivity, or are on medication that causes increased light sensitivity (e.g. antibiotics or St. John’s Wort) should, however, refrain from the treatment and consult with their physician. For the first treatment a lower dose is recommended, to test for any adverse reaction.


WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF RED-LIGHT TECHNOLOGY? Revive l Reduce Fine Lines & Wrinkles Recover l Proven Relief for Aches & Pains Rejuvenate l Improves Skin Tone & Texture


HOW LONG IS EACH TREATMENT/SESSION? The treatment should last between 10-20 minutes on average. The best results are obtained from 20 minute session. We recommend a break of 48 hours between treatments.


DO I NEED TO PROTECT MY EYES? Because of the bright light you should keep your eyes closed during the treatment. Wearing eyewear or sunglasses helps to make the process more comfortable.


CAN I HAVE A RED-LIGHT SESSION AFTER OR DURING A PERMANENT HAIR REMOVAL TREATMENT?

Permanent hair removal (laser, JPL) is carried out using a substantial input of light energy in the form of strong light beams. This irritates the skin and causes a change in its light tolerance. For safety reasons, for at least 48 hours before and at least 48 hours after light-based hair removal you should not be exposed to any red-light treatment.
