Lightwave therapy or "LED therapy" utilizes red and infrared light to promote positive changes at the level of the skin improving the local circulation, building collagen and elastin while stimulating the hypothalamus to produce more melatonin during the night.

The systemic results of exposing the body to the red light are a better circadian rhythm, deeper sleep, better mood, decreased inflammation and depression.

The effect of red light therapy on the skin is mediated by the ability of red/ infrared light to stimulate the production of ATP which is an enzyme involved in the production of energy at the cellular level of the body.

The increase in the production of ATP translates to an improved level of collagen and elastin in the skin with better superficial circulation of blood, oxygen and nutrients.
