Kao, red light therapy does not use ultraviolet (UV) marama. Ka whakamahia te whakamaarama rama whero visible red light (te tikanga a tawhio noa 630–660 nanometers) me etahi wa maramara-a-ira (tata ki te 800–850 nanometer), Ko enei e rua kei te taha taha o te tuāwhiorangi marama mai i te ultraviolet.
He aha te rereketanga i waenga i te rama whero me te rama UV?
- Ultraviolet (UV) marama has much shorter wavelengths (100–400 nanometers) and is known for causing sunburn, te koroheketanga o te kiri, and increasing skin cancer risk with excessive exposure.
- Marama whero me te tata-infrared have longer wavelengths, which penetrate the skin more gently and stimulate cell energy production without causing DNA damage.
