लाल प्रकाश चिकित्सा (आरएलटी) typically works within the visible red and near-infrared (निर) spectrum of light, measured in नैनोमीटर (एनएम).
These wavelengths penetrate the skin at different depths and trigger various biological effects.
1️⃣ Red Light Range: 620-700 एनएम
- Common therapeutic wavelengths: 630 एनएम और 660 एनएम
- Penetration depth: तक 5-10 मिमी (reaches skin and shallow tissues)
- के लिए सर्वोत्तम:
- Skin rejuvenation
- Collagen stimulation
- Reducing fine lines and wrinkles
- Healing superficial wounds or scars
- Reducing inflammation on the skin’s surface
🔬 Why it works:
At this range, light is absorbed by cytochrome c oxidase in your cells’ mitochondria, boosting एटीपी (ऊर्जा) उत्पादन and accelerating cell repair.
2️⃣ Near-Infrared (निर) Range: 800–900 nm
- Common therapeutic wavelengths: 810 एनएम, 830 एनएम, 850 एनएम, 880 एनएम
- Penetration depth: तक 30–40 mm (reaches muscles, जोड़, and even bones)
- के लिए सर्वोत्तम:
- Muscle recovery and performance
- Joint and deep tissue pain relief
- Nerve regeneration
- Improving circulation and reducing inflammation
🔬 Why it works:
NIR light penetrates deeper, improving blood flow and tissue oxygenation, supporting healing from the inside out.
3️⃣ Combined Red + NIR Therapy (Dual Spectrum)
Many advanced systems (पसंद MERICAN red light beds) use a combination of 660 एनएम + 850 एनएम LEDs — the most studied and clinically effective pair.
✅ 660 एनएम (लाल): boosts skin health and surface healing
✅ 850 एनएम (निकटवर्ती): targets deeper tissues and muscles
एक साथ, they provide comprehensive whole-body benefits, from skin rejuvenation to muscle recovery and inflammation reduction.
4️⃣ Summary Table
| वेवलेंथ (एनएम) | Type of Light | Penetration Depth | प्राथमिक लाभ |
|---|---|---|---|
| 630 एनएम | लाल | उथला | Skin healing, pigmentation repair |
| 660 एनएम | लाल | Medium | Collagen boost, बुढ़ापा विरोधी |
| 810 एनएम | निकट-अवरक्त | गहरा | Nerve regeneration, प्रसार |
| 830 एनएम | निकट-अवरक्त | गहरा | दर्द निवारक, सूजन |
| 850 एनएम | निकट-अवरक्त | Very Deep | मांसपेशी वसूली, tissue repair |
✅ In Short
The best wavelengths for red light therapy are 660 एनएम और 850 एनएम, often used together for maximum skin and body benefits.
