Terapi cahaya merah terkenal dengan manfaat penyembuhan kulit dan anti-penuaan—tetapi ada yang bertanya: Bolehkah terapi lampu merah menyebabkan hiperpigmentasi?
Jawapan Ringkas: Unlikely
Red light therapy does not typically cause hyperpigmentation.
Sebenarnya, ia sebenarnya boleh membantu mengurangkan jenis pigmentasi tertentu yang disebabkan oleh keradangan atau kerosakan kulit.
Why It’s Considered Safe
- Red light uses low-level, cahaya bukan UV, which doesn’t stimulate melanin the way sunlight (UV) does.
- It works by boosting cell repair and circulation, not by increasing pigment production.
- Studies show it may help improve skin tone, mengurangkan kemerahan, and promote even pigmentation.
Bila Perlu Berhati-hati
Although rare, people with very sensitive or heat-reactive skin sepatutnya:
- Mulakan dengan short sessions (5–10 minit).
- Avoid using it with photosensitive products like strong acids or retinol.
- Sentiasa wear sunscreen if using red light as part of a daily skincare routine.
Can Red Light Help Hyperpigmentation?
ya! Some users report improvement in kesan selepas jerawat, kerosakan matahari, and uneven tone over time. Namun begitu, results may vary depending on skin type and condition.
Fikiran Akhir
Red light therapy is generally safe and does not cause hyperpigmentation. It may even help reduce it when used correctly. If you have existing pigmentation issues, talk to a dermatologist for the best treatment plan.
