How Red Light Therapy Supports Collagen Production

Writer: Sue JaycockSue Jaycock

Photizo Red Light Therapy supports collagen production through a process called photobiomodulation (PBM), where specific wavelengths of light, particularly in the red and near-infrared spectrum, penetrate the skin to stimulate cellular activity.

Here's how it works:


  1. Cell Stimulation: The red light stimulates the mitochondria in your skin cells, which are responsible for producing energy. This increased cellular energy helps to enhance the function of fibroblasts, the cells that produce collagen.

  2. Collagen Synthesis: As fibroblasts are activated, they begin to produce more collagen, a protein that gives the skin its structure and elasticity. Collagen production naturally decreases as we age, which leads to wrinkles and sagging skin. Red light therapy helps counteract this by boosting collagen levels.

  3. Skin Repair and Regeneration: Red light therapy not only encourages collagen production but also improves circulation, which enhances the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the skin. This helps with overall skin regeneration and can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

  4. Improved Skin Texture: By stimulating collagen production, Photizo Red Light Therapy helps to improve skin texture, making it smoother and more youthful-looking.

It’s a non-invasive and natural way to support your skin's collagen levels, making it a popular treatment for improving skin appearance and reducing signs of aging.
