This protein makes up a large portion of connective tissue and aids in the skin’s recovery after injury. Thus, red light has the potential to reverse some of the signs of photo aging in the skin.
The most frequently used blue LED light is to treat acne. This may be accomplished by inhibiting sebaceous gland activity, thereby producing less oil that can clog hair follicles, resulting in acne.
