A escolha entre terapia de luz azul (BLT) e terapia de luz vermelha (Rlt) depende de seus objetivos específicos, pois abordam questões diferentes. Aqui está uma comparação direta para ajudá-lo a decidir:
Terapia de luz azul (415-450nm) Melhor para:
√ Tratamento de acne – Mata P. Bactérias Acnes (Aprovado pela FDA para acne leve a moderada).
√ Controle de pele oleosa – Temporarily reduces sebum production.
√ Psoriasis/Eczema Support – Calms inflammation when combined with red light.
Limitations:
× No anti-aging benefits (does not stimulate collagen).
× May dry out skin (not ideal for sensitive or dry skin types).
× Only superficial (penetrates 1-2mm).
Melhor para: Teens/adults with acne, oily skin or scalp conditions.
Terapia com luz vermelha (630-660nm, 850nm nir) Melhor para:
√ Anti-Aging – Increases collagen & elastina (reduz as rugas, melhora a firmeza da pele).
√ Wound Healing – Speeds recovery from scars, burns or post-surgery treatments.
√ Pain & Inflamação – relieves joint and muscle pain (artrite, tendinite).
√Hair Growth – FDA approved for androgenetic alopecia (E.G.. iRestore).
Limitations:
× Doesn’t kill acne bacteria (use blue light for active breakouts).
× Slower results (requires consistency: 8-12 weeks for collagen benefits).
Melhor para: Aging skin, chronic pain, hair loss or general recovery.
Acne √√ ○ (redness) Blue wins Wrinkles ×√√ Red wins Pain relief × √√ Red wins Hair growth × √√ Red wins Oily skin √ × Blue wins When to use both together for acne + ageing skin:
Luz azul (10 min) → kills bacteria.
Luz vermelha (10 min after) → reduces redness + increases collagen.
Healing after the procedure:
For maximum benefit: Choose based on your primary concern or invest in a dual wavelength device.
Blue prevents infection → Red speeds up recovery (E.G.. after microneedling): Omnilux Clear, CurrentBody LED Mask (combo wavelengths).Science-Backed VerdictBlue light is better for acne and oily skin.Red light is better for anti-aging, pain relief and healing.Combined = best for acne scars + prevention (estudos mostram 77% improvement vs. 50% with blue alone).
