Your skin is responsible for so many important functions - one of which is to provide a physical barrier, preventing unwanted substances from entering our body. It also provides a chemical barrier against infection.
When the skin is damaged, it needs energy to repair itself. If there's not enough energy, healing can be slow, and there's a higher risk of scarring or bacterial infection.
GETTING SURGERY OR OTHER INVASIVE TREATMENT?
LED PHOTOTHERAPY CAN HELP RECOVERY!
Each of your body's cells contain mitochondria, and these mitochondria produce a cellular energy called Adenosine Triphosphate (or ATP for short).
Your body uses ATP to help heal the skin after injury.
HOW YOUR SKIN GETS IT'S ENERGY
Using red light (at 633 nanometers) and near infrared light (at 830 nanometers) has been shown to increase ATP production.
Boosting ATP production before surgery (or other invasive procedure) means that the cells are fuelled with a ready supply of energy, to help boost the healing process afterwards.
BOOSTING ATP PRODUCTION
At LED By Light, we can help pre-treat the skin on the head, neck, arms, hands, legs, knees, ankles and feet. We recommend a course of 4 treatments over 2 weeks (2 treatments a week) before the surgery or invasive procedure.
For after the procedure, we recommend discussing the use of HYPO21, a skin healing spray available here at LED By Light, with whoever is performing the procedure.
