According to the World Association of Anti-Aging and Rejuvenation, WAAR, laser therapy is the result of electromagnetic energy interacting chemically and biologically with tissue, causing “photobiomodulation.”
Laser therapies are medical treatments that use focused light … Unlike most light sources, light from a laser is tuned to specific wavelengths. Lasers in medicine can be used in medical diagnosis, treatments or therapies. They focus on Photobiomodulation also known as low-level laser therapy
What is Low-level laser therapy?
By using lasers or LEDs, this type of laser therapy is useful for improving tissue regeneration, reduce pain and inflammation.
Indeed, the application of a therapeutic dose of light to impaired or dysfunctional tissue leads to a cellular response mediated by mitochondrial mechanisms that reduce pain and speed healing.
Indeed, the application of a therapeutic dose of light to impaired or dysfunctional tissue leads to a cellular response mediated by mitochondrial mechanisms that reduce pain and speed healing.
It is a nonthermal process involving photochemical events at various biological scales.
When the light arrived on tissues and cells it stimulates Cytochrome C which is a vital component of the electron transport chain that drives cellular metabolism. It follows increased production of molecules that that facilitates energy transfer within the cell. Laser stimulation also increased nitric oxide and reactive oxygen species. The latter affects inflammatory response and they increase cells proliferation whereas nitric oxide improves microcirculation in the damaged tissue, delivering oxygen, vital sugars and proteins.
Description of treatment
Approximately, treatments last between 10 minutes and 20 minutes and should be done between 2 or 5 times a week (maintenance therapy proceeds at a frequency that depends on the illness being treated and the severity of illness).
During the treatment, a light source is placed near or in contact with the skin, allowing the light energy (photons) to penetrate tissue where it interacts with chromophores.
The biochemical process previously described will take place and will accelerate wound healing and tissue regeneration, increase circulation, reduce inflammation and help restore normal cellular function.
In some words, laser therapy can:
- Regenerate the cells
- Hydrate the cells
- Help product penetration into the dermis
- Healing
- Multiply the energy
Laser therapy and anti-aging potential
As a method used in both aesthetics and medicine, photobiomodulation promises to solve all kinds of physical and brain problems.
Skin
Photobiomodulation acts directly on the cells of your body and face for a stunning anti-aging effect!But beyond this, this light therapy can also repair damaged tissue, soften dermal diseases, treat acne and remove scars.
It is a real fountain of youth for who decides to expose himself in his salon, clinics or institutes.
In 2004, Mac Daniel & Weiss conducted a scientific study on a sample of 93 people and achieved striking results. They have just demonstrated the action of light therapy on wrinkles, pigment spots and elasticity of the skin, 92% of the sample tested twice a week achieves more than satisfactory results!
Brain
Indeed, photobiomodulation can regenerate the brain because it is based on the regeneration of the cells. This method of exposure to pulsed light shows a clear improvement in the recovery of brain damage. It also seems logical that if photobiomodulation allows cellular oxygenation, it awakens dormant cells and gives them the breathing they need to rebuild.
Photobiomodulation is becoming a tool used to mitigate the side-effects of cancer therapy (radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy). One of the most debilitating of these side effects is oral mucositis that can not only be extremely painful but can also prevent patients from taking normal nourishment.
Pain
Different studies have shown that low-level laser therapy can reduce pain in chronic joint disorders and arthrosis.
Performance
Because this method also enhances the oxygenation of the blood, athletes will find a valuable ally to increase their performance and help recovery after exercise in addition to the anti-aging effects.
It is incredible but yes: light can heal!
World Association of Anti-Aging and Rejuvenation
Since the discovery of this therapy in 1967, photobiomodulation has made major progress in obtaining recognition from authorities in medical schools, scholarly journals, the popular press and the media!
