What Is Light Therapy?

Red light therapy and blue light therapy are two types of light therapy that can be used to improve the appearance and health of the skin.

Red light therapy is often used to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin texture and tone, and promote collagen production. It works by penetrating the skin and stimulating the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the energy source for cells. This increase energy can help to repair damages cells and promote the growth of new, healthy cells.

Blue light therapy, on the other hand, is often used to treat acne and other skin conditions. It works by killing the bacteria that cause acne, reducing inflammation, and promoting healing. Blue light therapy is often used in combination with red light therapy to provide a comprehensive treatment for the skin.
