Low-level laser (light) therapy (LLLT) in the skin: stimulation, healing, regeneration

Low-level light therapy (LLLT) is a rapidly developing technology used to promote healing, reduce pain and inflammation, and restore tissue function.

The skin, as the most light-exposed organ, exhibits an exceptionally good response to red and near-infrared spectrum. Photons are absorbed by mitochondrial chromophores, triggering a cascade of cellular reactions – from the activation of electron transport, through the production of ATP and nitric oxide, to the improvement of microcirculation and activation of repair pathways.

LLLT can activate stem cells, accelerate the healing of burns, scars, and UV damage, and preventively protect the skin from degenerative changes.

In inflammatory conditions such as acne or psoriasis, light therapy exhibits a significant calming effect. In pigment disorders like vitiligo, it supports the proliferation of melanocytes and suppresses autoimmune processes.

Thanks to its non-invasiveness and minimal side effects, LLLT is becoming a promising tool in modern dermatology and regenerative medicine.
