SUMMARY

 What does this help to improve?  The potential for using red light therapy as a way to rejuvenate the skin has led to a large number of studies.   As the review in the journal Seminars in Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery notes, red light therapy helps rejuvenate the skin by increasing collagen production in the skin, which gives the skin its elasticity, increasing fibroblast production, which helps produce collagen and other tissue fibers,  increasing circulation between blood and tissue cells,  protecting cells from damage,  increasing mRNA in the cells, which helps stimulate the cell, improving facial texture,  reducing fine lines and reducing wrinkle severity.

 

A clinical trial in the journal Photomedicine and Laser Surgery explored light treatment for some basic skin issues in a small group of 136 people. The researchers found that these light therapies could rejuvenate the skin, improve the complexion and improve the feeling of the skin.
