그만큼 best wavelength for red light therapy (RLT) depends on your goal, but the most effective ranges are:
- 빨간불: 630–660 nm → ideal for skin surface treatments, 콜라겐 생산, 노화 방지, and pigmentation.
- 근적외선 (근적외선) 빛: 810–850 nm → penetrates deeper tissues, supporting muscle recovery, joint health, 염증 감소, 그리고 통증 완화.
Many professional devices combine both red and NIR wavelengths for full-body or targeted therapy.
Why Wavelength Matters
Red light therapy works by delivering photons to cells, stimulating 미토콘드리아 to produce ATP (세포 에너지).
- Different wavelengths penetrate different depths:
- 빨간불 (630–660 nm): ~5–10 mm deep → surface skin, dermis, and collagen layers.
- 근적외선 (810–850 nm): ~30–50 mm deep → muscles, 관절, 힘줄, and ligaments.
Choosing the correct wavelength ensures that the light reaches the tissues you want to treat.
Recommended Wavelengths by Goal
| Goal | Best Wavelength | 왜 |
|---|---|---|
| 노화 방지 & 피부 회춘 | 630–660 nm | 콜라겐을 자극합니다 & elastin in dermis |
| Scar & hyperpigmentation | 630–660 nm | Promotes skin repair & balances melanin |
| 근육 회복 & 관절통 | 810–850 nm | Penetrates deep tissue for healing & circulation |
| 염증 & 상처 치유 | 630–850 nm (combined) | Targets both surface and deep layers |
| 모발 성장 | 630–680 nm | Stimulates follicles at skin surface |
Most high-quality RLT devices combine 빨간색 + 근적외선 for broader benefits.
Usage Tips for Optimal Results
- 거리: Keep 6–12 inches from the skin for consistent coverage.
- 지속: 10세션 당 20 분, depending on body area.
- 빈도: 3–5 times per week for best results.
- Device Choice: Look for clinical-grade devices with 660 nm red + 850 nm NIR LEDs — this combination covers most therapeutic needs.
Important Considerations
- Too low intensity or wrong wavelength → limited or no results.
- 과잉 노출 is generally safe but unnecessary; stick to recommended session times.
- Combination therapy often works best — e.g., skin treatments with 660 nm and deeper joint treatments with 850 nm.
Bottom Line
The “best wavelength” depends on your treatment goal:
- 630–660 nm red light → skin, 노화 방지, pigmentation
- 810–850 nm near-infrared → deep tissue, 통증 완화, 근육 회복
Devices combining both wavelengths, 좋다 MERICAN 적색 광선 치료 시스템, deliver the most versatile and effective treatment for full-body wellness.
