Introduction
Ungleichmäßiger Hautton, dunkle Flecken, and hyperpigmentation are among the most common skin concerns caused by Sonnenaussetzung, Altern, Akne, or hormonal changes. While creams and chemical peels are often used to treat them, many people now seek gentle, non-invasive treatments — like Rotlichttherapie (RLT) — to restore clear and balanced skin.
Also, can red light therapy really help with pigmentation? Let’s look at the science behind this light-based skin treatment.
How Red Light Therapy Works for Skin Pigmentation
Rotlichttherapie verwendet specific wavelengths of red (around 630–660 nm) Und Leinesblattlicht (810–850 nm) that penetrate deep into the skin. Unlike laser or IPL (intense pulsed light), RLT doesn’t burn or peel the skin — it works by stimulating your body’s natural healing processes.
Here’s how it benefits pigmentation issues:
- 🌿 Regulates melanin production: Helps balance the activity of melanocytes (the cells that produce pigment), reducing dark spots and discoloration.
- 💡 Boosts collagen and cell turnover: Encourages new skin cells to replace damaged, pigmented ones.
- 💧 Improves microcirculation: Enhances nutrient and oxygen delivery to the skin for a brighter, healthier tone.
- 🔥 Reduziert Entzündungen: Helps fade post-acne or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
The result? Smoother, clearer, and more even-looking skin — achieved naturally, without harsh chemicals.
Scientific Evidence Supporting Red Light Therapy for Pigmentation
Clinical research supports red light therapy’s role in improving skin texture and tone:
- 📚 A study in Dermatologic Surgery found that red LED light improved skin tone and reduced pigmentation after several weeks of use.
- 🧬 Another study in Photomedicine and Laser Surgery showed that red light helped reduce melanin formation and promote balanced skin color.
- 🌟 Red light therapy is widely used in dermatology clinics and aesthetic centers as part of combination treatments for Melasma, sunspots, and post-acne marks.
While it may not completely erase deep pigmentation, consistent use can visibly fade discoloration and improve overall skin brightness.
How to Use Red Light Therapy for Pigmentation
- Sitzungszeit: 10–20 minutes per area
- Frequenz: 3–5 sessions per week for 6–8 weeks, then 1–2 times weekly for maintenance
- Device type: Red light facial panels, Handheld -Geräte, or full-body red light beds like MERICAN’s professional series
