Red Light Therapy on the way out - Yellow LED for 2010
The use of Red Light Therapy continues to baffle specialists in the rosacea field. Angiogenesis, increased blood flow for hours post treatment, swelling, fibroplasia, mitochondrial activation which triggers papule formation, VEGF synthesis, Nitric Oxide synthesis (potent dilators), activation of White Blood Cells, free radical production. Theory and anecdotal reports are in agreement. Red light therapy should be discarded.
Yellow Light Therapy is the better treatment for Rosacea.
LED Yellow light is used in the the cosmetic treatment of burns (such as sunburns) to reduce the appearance of redness, swelling as well as other inflammation conditions such as rosacea and eczema. Yellow light therapy also provides general cosmetic facial rejuvenation by assisting with the reduction of the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. LED photo modulation at this frequency has been used alone for skin rejuvenation in several studies. Use LED Yellow light for rosacea redness, flushing and swelling.
