How It Works

How does red light therapy work?

When delivered within the optimal wavelengths and energy levels, red and near infrared light protect your body’s cells from nitric oxide damage, which can otherwise stop the cell’s production of ATP when you’re stressed or ill. Red light photons allow your cells to continue utilizing oxygen effectively by minimizing the absorption of nitric oxide. Only red light therapy can reach all the way into a cell’s mitochondria to stimulate healing and regeneration to help improve your appearance, performance, and overall well-being.

HARNESS THE POWER OF R+ | NIR+

Our patent-pending R+|NIR+ spectrum, exclusive to all PlatinumLED BIOMAX lights, achieves a perfected blend of 5 different wavelengths of light that offers therapeutic benefits for a wide array of applications and deeper penetration for maximum results. Extensive scientific studies confirm that this helps create the most advanced and powerful LED therapy light ever designed.

480NM WAVELENGTH

Blue Light therapy is one area of light therapy that is quickly gaining recognition for some of its amazing benefits especially when used in conjunction with red and NIR light therapy.

REPAIR SUN DAMAGE AND HELP TREAT PRECANCEROUS LESIONS

Blue light used with a photosensitizing agent has been found effective in treating actinic keratoses or precancerous lesions caused by sun damage. Treating an individual actinic keratosis lesion can prevent skin cancer. This effective treatment only targets diseased cells with minimal effect on surrounding tissue.

MILD TO MODERATE ACNE

Blue light treatment has come to the forefront in skincare as an effective treatment of mild to moderate acne. Propionibacterium acnes, the acne-causing bacteria, emits a photosensitizer which makes the bacteria exceptionally sensitive to light and vulnerable to damage by specific wavelengths.

ANTI-AGING AND SKIN WOUNDS

Good circulation is vital for skin health and skin wound healing. Blue light stimulates the release of nitric oxide (NO), a vasodilator which increases circulation to deliver oxygen, immune cells, and nutrients to the treatment area. Along with the antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties of blue light, this effect can result in faster wound healing and better skin health.

810NM WAVELENGTH

With an ability to extend through the skull into the brain, the 810nm wavelength offers a unique array of neurological benefits. Many forward-thinking scientists are of the belief that light therapy for brain disorders will become a prominent medical treatment in the near future. Expect to reap the following benefits from the 810nm wavelength:

Improved healing and recovery:

A study of soccer players showed that the 810nm wavelength applied before activity enhanced muscular performance and post-exercise recovery.

Accelerated wound healing:

810nm wavelengths have been shown to help expedite wound healing, helping the tissue to granulate more rapidly.

Improved recovery from stroke in certain patients:

One study conducted among stroke patients showed that wavelengths of 810nm provided neuroprotective benefits and improved recovery among sufferers of moderate to severe strokes. Five days after the stroke, there was significant improvement among those who had been treated with the 810nm light therapy, compared to those who hadn’t. Ninety days post-stroke, 70% of the treated patients had a successful outcome, compared with only 51% of the control group.

Improved recovery from traumatic brain injury:

810nm has been proven in animal models to be particularly effective in fostering recovery from traumatic brain injuries, and reducing long-term neurological damage.

Improvement in psychiatric disorders:

Prescription drugs for psychiatric conditions have long been recognized as having a limited ability to assist individuals suffering from psychiatric conditions. What’s more, pharmacotherapeutic medication often carries a host of unwanted side effects, while near-infrared light therapy doesn’t. 810nm wavelengths applied to the forehead have been shown to assist patients suffering from major depression and anxiety.

Hair growth:

Studies have shown the 810nm wavelength can encourage significant hair growth in patients with androgenetic alopecia.

830NM WAVELENGTH

The 830nm wavelength is not as readily absorbed by the body, therefore it is able to penetrate deeper through skin and tissue and into the bone. A greater quantity of photons are delivered into the tissue with the 830nm wavelength. The incorporation of the 830nm wavelength into the BIOMAX delivers the following advantages:

Accelerated healing and reduced infection:

Like the 810nm wavelength, 830nm accelerates healing in wounds of different severity and helps to ward off infection.

Improved aesthetic outcomes following plastic surgery:

Swift exposure to 830nm wavelengths after aesthetic surgery hastens recovery, reduces downtime and enhances the results of surgery by reducing swelling, infection, bruising and pain, therefore leading to greater patient satisfaction.

Increased “feel-good” endorphins:

830nm wavelengths increases the release of endorphins. Endorphins are peptides which promote feelings of wellness.

Improved bone repair and growth:

An animal study demonstrated that 830nm light therapy improved bone repair by stimulating new bone growth.

Improvement in psychiatric disorders:

Faster return-to-play after injury:

The ability to return-to-play as swiftly as possible after injury or trauma is a key concern for any amateur or professional athlete. 830nm LED light therapy has been proven to significantly and safely reduce the wait time before injured athletes can return to play.

WHY PLATINUMLED THERAPY LIGHTS ARE SUPERIOR

The energy output of PlatinumLED Therapy lights is maximized, ensuring you get a clinical-grade red light therapy treatment. PlatinumLED was the first LED red light therapy company to bring the concept of power measurement to the table.

Our lights emit more irradiance (the output of an LED therapy light) than any other LED therapy light currently on the market. Only PlatinumLED Therapy Lights can promise deeper red light and near infrared light penetration than any other light is capable of achieving.

In addition to superior output strength, only PlatinumLED offer a highly advanced, patent-pending R+|NIR+ multi-wave spectrum comprised of five independent and highly studied bands of light.

What does all this give you? RESULTS - that only PlatinumLED can deliver.
