Red Light Therapy (RLT) is a trending topic, even featured recently in Vogue! Sphagnum De-Lux explores the benefits of RLT and how our collection can support skin hydration post-treatment.
Understanding Red Light Therapy (RLT)
RLT is a non-invasive, safe treatment that uses low-level red or near-infrared (NIR) light to stimulate cellular activity, unlike harmful UV light. It works by energizing the mitochondria in cells—the "powerhouses"—to boost repair, energy, and overall function.
How RLT Works
-
Cellular Energy: The light is absorbed by mitochondria, increasing energy production and promoting better cell function and repair.
-
Wavelengths: Red light (630-700nm) treats surface issues, while NIR light penetrates deeper to reach muscles and joints.
Common Uses & Benefits
RLT is utilized for a range of cosmetic and therapeutic benefits:

What to Expect
