Red Light Therapy For Acne
and Inflammation in Reno

Discover the power of Red Light Therapy (RLT) at Aesthetics MedSpa in Reno, where we specialize in harnessing light energy to rejuvenate skin, alleviate pain, and enhance body wellness. Our state-of-the-art RLT uses specific beneficial wavelengths (620-750 nm) to penetrate deep into tissues, stimulating collagen and elastin production for youthful skin and improved blood circulation for overall health benefits.

The Healing Power of Red Light

RLT, a form of low-level laser therapy, is scientifically proven to promote skin health by increasing collagen density, reducing inflammation, and aiding in the management of acne and chronic skin conditions. It’s a drug-free, non-invasive therapy that delivers a multitude of benefits, including pain relief from conditions like joint pain and myofascial pain.

RLT leverages photobiomodulation to activate mitochondrial function, boosting cellular energy and aiding in healing at a cellular level. This process differs from other light-based treatments by using light energy that’s beneficial and safe for the skin, without the risks associated with UV rays.

Benefits of Red Light Therapy for Skin

At Aesthetics MedSpa, we are proud to introduce the transformative benefits of RLT for your skin’s health and radiance. This innovative treatment harnesses the power of specific wavelengths of light to penetrate deep into the skin, offering a myriad of benefits:

• Inflammation Reduction: RLT is renowned for its ability to significantly reduce inflammation, aiding in soothing skin conditions and easing pain.
• Acne Clearance: This non-invasive approach supports the skin’s natural healing process, minimizing the appearance of acne without harsh chemicals or drugs.
• Collagen Enhancement: As a powerful stimulator of collagen production, RLT works to fortify the skin’s structural integrity, promoting enhanced skin elasticity and reducing the signs of aging.
• Scarring and Redness Alleviation: RLT is effective in minimizing the appearance of scars, including those resulting from acne. It helps in repairing and rejuvenating skin tissues, reducing redness, and improving overall skin tone.

The Process of Red Light Therapy at Aesthetics MedSpa

Embarking on RLT at Aesthetics MedSpa promises an innovative and science-backed journey towards improved skin health. Here’s what you can expect:

• Consultation: Your RLT experience begins with a personalized consultation, assessing your skin conditions and determining the optimal light therapy strategy for your needs.
• Preparation: Prior to your session, we recommend a clean and clear skin surface. This may mean removing makeup or lotions that could reflect the light.
• The Session: Low-wavelength red light will penetrate deep into skin tissue, energizing cells, and stimulating the production of collagen and elastin.
• Frequency and Duration: For conditions like acne and inflammation, studies suggest that consistent sessions—often two to three times a week for one to several months—are most effective.
• Post-Session Care: After the treatment, no significant downtime is needed. We advise a gentle skincare routine and ample hydration to support the healing process. The light may continue to work hours after the session, promoting blood circulation and cellular repair.
• Ongoing Care: Repetition is key. While some benefits like a radiant glow or pain relief can be noticed immediately, long-term rewards such as improved skin tone, reduced appearance of cellulite, and healing of wounds require a series of sessions.

Combining RLT with Other Treatments

Combining RLT with other treatments can offer a synergistic approach to skincare and wellness, enhancing the benefits for individuals seeking not only aesthetic improvements but also relief from various conditions.

• Skin Rejuvenation: RLT boosts collagen and works well with peels and microdermabrasion for youthful and smooth skin.
• Acne Treatment: RLT’s anti-inflammatory effects complement topical acne treatments, potentially reducing medication need.
• Pain and Recovery: For joint and muscle pain, RLT alongside compression therapy can enhance healing and pain relief.
• Body Contouring: RLT may improve outcomes of fat reduction and cellulite treatments by increasing collagen and elastin.
• Bone Healing: RLT can support bone repair processes, beneficial when combined with conventional bone healing therapies.
• Anti-Aging: Used with skin tightening treatments, RLT can help achieve firmer and smoother skin.

Expert consultations at our medical spa can tailor these combinations for individual wellness and aesthetic goals, leveraging RLT’s ability to improve blood flow, enhance cellular function, and support tissue repair.
