Looking for a gentle way to refresh your skin and support a healthier-looking complexion? Red Light Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to support your skin’s natural cellular processes.
At Barris Laser & Skincare in Boulder, LED Red Light Therapy may help improve the appearance of fine lines, uneven texture, and mild redness over time. It’s a comfortable treatment that requires little to no downtime and can be enjoyed on its own or as a complement to other skincare services.
Whether you’re maintaining your skin or giving it a little extra attention, Red Light Therapy is a relaxing addition to your skincare routine.
Red Light Therapy uses specific wavelengths of red light to stimulate cellular activity in the skin, a process known as photobiomodulation.
This light may help support collagen production and the skin’s natural repair processes, gradually improving the appearance of fine lines, redness, and uneven texture.
Unlike laser resurfacing or chemical peels, Red Light Therapy doesn’t intentionally remove or exfoliate the skin’s surface.
Red Light Therapy may offer several skin benefits, including:
- Softening the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- Improving the look of mild redness
- Supporting a smoother, more refreshed complexion
- Helping improve uneven skin texture
- Complementing other professional skincare treatments
Results vary depending on your skin, the equipment used, and your treatment schedule. Improvements are generally subtle and develop gradually.
Red Light Therapy is generally considered a low-risk, non-invasive treatment when used appropriately.
Unlike tanning beds, red light devices don’t rely on ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Most clients experience little discomfort, although temporary redness, irritation, or sensitivity can occur.
Certain medical conditions, light-sensitive skin disorders, and medications that increase sensitivity to light may make treatment inappropriate. We’ll review any relevant concerns and follow the device’s recommended safety precautions, including eye protection when required.
Most clients find Red Light Therapy comfortable and relaxing. You may notice a gentle warmth during treatment, but it shouldn’t be painful.
There’s typically no recovery time required, making it an easy addition to your skincare routine.
Red Light Therapy generally works best with repeated treatments rather than a single appointment.
The number and frequency of sessions depend on your skin concerns, treatment goals, and the equipment being used.
Some clients enjoy Red Light Therapy as part of an ongoing skincare routine, while others combine it with professional facials or other treatments. Our team can help recommend a schedule that’s appropriate for you.
You can generally return to your normal skincare and makeup routine after Red Light Therapy.
For the treatment itself, we may recommend starting with clean skin so makeup, sunscreen, and other products don’t interfere with the light reaching your skin.
Your provider will explain how to prepare for your appointment.
Yes! Red Light Therapy is often used as a complementary treatment alongside professional skincare services.
At Barris, it may be incorporated into certain facials or recommended alongside other treatments, depending on your skin’s needs.
For example, our AquaFacial includes Red Light Therapy as part of its multi-step treatment.
Not every combination is appropriate immediately before or after another procedure. Our team will recommend the best timing for your skin and treatment plan.
