Does infrared light therapy tighten skin?

Infrared light penetrates more than red light and can better reach the dermis where fibroblasts (collagen and elastin producing cells) and collagen structures are found. High-power LED phototherapy in the near infrared wavelength boosts mitochondrial function via the stimulation of cytochrome C oxidase enzyme. Improved mitochondrial function means better fibroblast function and increased collagen and elastin synthesis, meaning firmer skin. No other procedure is known to have this effect on mitochondrial function - only red light at around 630nm and infrared light at around 830nm. However, this effect is subtle and appears gradually and slowly, so infrared…

Laser and red/infrared LED light therapy vs radiofrequency and cavitation for skin tightening and cellulite

Laser and red/infrared LED light therapy vs radiofrequency and cavitation for skin tightening and cellulite

Which is better for body skin tightening and cellulite: laser or radio frequency? Absolutely NOT laser. Laser is way too superficial and also pointless for skin tightening or cellulite. There are two types of lasers: strong, ablative, lasers aim to burn the surface of the skin to stimulate new epidermal growth. Cellulite, however, is found at the deepest layer of the skin (hypodermis), not the most superficial (epidermis), so ablative lasers do not work for cellulite at all…
