LED Red Light Therapy
LED red light treatment has a wide range of applications, from alleviating chronic pain to reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes to clearing up stubborn acne. Low-level light therapy is a flexible and safe treatment option that may favorably affect your body at the cellular level once you learn how it works.
Before delving into the advantages of LED red light therapy, it's crucial to have a handle on how it really works. Comparing it to mammalian photosynthesis is the most accurate analogy. The mitochondria and cell membranes take in photons from the light source. An increase in adenosine triphosphate synthesis results in a chain reaction of metabolic processes that has a positive effect on biochemical and cellular processes.

Anti-Aging Benefits
We're all on the lookout for anti-gravity gadgets and anti-aging treatments. There is no shortage of anti-aging treatments promising to tighten, firm, or fill in those fine lines and wrinkles, whether it be the under-eye wrinkles that make us seem constantly exhausted, the deep laugh lines around the mouth, or the drooping skin on our necks.
LED red light treatment is a fantastic non-pharmaceutical solution for reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes. Improving collagen and elastin production is a great first line of defense in the struggle against aging. Collagen and elastin, the two most prevalent proteins in connective tissue, are both produced by fibroblast cells. Benefits of LED red light treatment include boosting fibroblast growth. Collagen fibers are produced by cells called fibroblasts, and their quantity and quality are directly related to the health of the fibroblasts present in the skin.
The Celluma SERIES of LED light treatment equipment use scientifically-proven red and near-infrared wavelengths to fight aging. Clinical studies have shown that exposing your skin to these particular wavelengths of light energy activates the fibroblast cells, hence increasing your body's natural capacity to produce collagen and elastin.

Pain Benefits
As many as 23.5 million persons in the United States have chronic pain, defined as pain that has persisted for three months or more, according to the National Institutes of Health. LED red light treatment may help alleviate pain, whether it's chronic or recent. Clinical studies have shown that infrared and, in particular, near-infrared light radiation may penetrate deep into the dermal layer of the skin, where muscle and joint pain is most intense, to provide much-needed relief to those who suffer from inflammation and damage.
LED red light treatment has been shown to be therapeutic across a variety of medical uses, with evidence indicating that it may penetrate deep into the skin to improve cellular health. LED red light treatment is helpful since it's a more all-natural approach to healing. Celluma red light treatment takes a distinct approach to pain management by targeting the source of the discomfort, improving tissue regeneration and performance so that your body can function at its best.

Acne Benefits
Acne isn't limited to adolescents. About three-quarters of the population between the ages of 11 and 30 in the United States will suffer from acne at some point in their life.
Acne develops when pores or hair follicles get clogged with dead skin cells and sebum, an oil generated by the body. With continued plugging of the skin's surface oil glands, P. acne bacteria are able to infect the skin and cause inflammation, redness, and swelling while sebum production continues to pile up below.
And if acne is a problem you've had to deal with, you're familiar with the many treatments that doctors and dermatologists offer. Sometimes the "remedies" offered by the internet might even be harmful. Acne patients who undergo LED red light treatment see improvements because the therapy eliminates acne-causing germs deep inside the skin. Acne may be treated using blue LED light therapy, which uses light of a particular, scientifically-proven wavelength to produce a naturally occurring action in human tissue and eliminate the bacteria responsible for acne. Celluma devices have an advantage over those that only produce blue light since they also emit red light. Red LED light helps reduce inflammation associated with acne lesions and improves tone, texture, and clarity from the inside out, while blue light is busy destroying the acne-causing bacteria.
LED red light treatment has several uses, including those listed above, as well as anti-aging, pain reduction, and improved skin clarity. And the advantages will last long after the first therapy has ended. However, you shouldn't just take our word for it. Look at the evidence for yourself in this facelift study by Lee and colleagues. 1 LED red light treatment may deliver a wide range of health advantages in only a few minutes every day, and it is safe, drug-free, and has no negative side effects.

LED Light Therapy for Female Fertility
To boost ATP (cellular energy generation), decrease inflammation, and enhance the quality of the uterine lining, a non-invasive therapeutic option is LED near-infrared light therapy for female fertility.
The aging process and subsequent decline in egg quality have long been considered inevitable by Western reproductive medicine.
In Denmark and Japan, however, pioneering research using LED / near-infrared light treatment is indicating that it may be feasible to enhance egg quality, slow down the aging process, and greatly boost fertility in both women and men.
In particular, near-infrared light treatment has been proven to significantly increase the success rate of conception by boosting the quality of both eggs and sperm. We believe these studies have tremendous implications for women and men who are having difficulty conceiving, especially those with advanced maternal age, low sperm or egg quality, or endometriosis and polycystic ovary syndrome.

How LED Therapy Benefits Female Fertility
There is a huge energy expenditure in producing eggs. A great deal of vitality is needed during early embryonic division and implantation. Damage to mitochondria occurs beyond age 35. About 90% of eggs are abnormal by the time a woman reaches age 40. mitochondria, the cells' energy producers, produce far less adenosine triphosphate (ATP) as age increases. Because of this, the embryonic growth and implantation rates suffer.
LED treatment affects cells at the mitochondrial level. The mitochondria will respond to the light treatment by producing more ATP (= energy for the cells). This is great news, since it means the cell is better able to perform the three things a fertilized egg has to do: multiply, migrate, and adhere. In addition, the enhanced energy level in the cells will boost circulation, alleviate muscular tension, and decrease inflammation. All of these things help improve the odds of a successful pregnancy in women, the quality of their eggs, and the responsiveness of their uterine lining.

Female Fertility Results
Clinical data from Denmark and recent research in Japan have shown extremely encouraging results in this area.
Women who had tried and failed to conceive for at least 4 years with existing assisted reproductive technology procedures had a 66% success rate with light therapy, according to studies conducted in Denmark and Norway.
Data from a Japanese research study conducted by Dr. Kazunori Nakamura showed that combining acupuncture with near-infrared light treatment before to and during an IVF cycle doubled the blastocyst rate.
