Photobiomodulation Skin Repair
LED Red Light Therapy
Healing should not require hurting your skin first. LED Red Light Therapy uses specific wavelengths of red (630-660nm) and near-infrared (810-850nm) light to stimulate cellular repair, reduce inflammation, and promote collagen production — with no needles, no heat damage, and no downtime.

How It Works
See Beyond Beauty LED Red Light Therapy: How Photobiomodulation Works
LED Red Light Therapy is a non-invasive photobiomodulation treatment that delivers red (630-660nm) and near-infrared (810-850nm) wavelengths to stimulate cytochrome c oxidase activity in mitochondria, increasing adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production to accelerate collagen synthesis, reduce inflammation, and support tissue repair without thermal damage.
See Beyond Beauty uses medical-grade LED panels that emit red light at 630 to 660nm and near-infrared light at 810 to 850nm. These wavelengths penetrate the skin at different depths to target distinct cellular processes.
Red light wavelengths reach the dermis, where they stimulate fibroblast activity. Fibroblasts produce collagen and elastin. More fibroblast activity means more structural proteins and firmer, more resilient skin.
Near-infrared wavelengths penetrate deeper, reaching muscles and connective tissue. These wavelengths reduce inflammation, accelerate wound healing, and support tissue repair beyond what red light alone achieves.
The mechanism is chromophore absorption — light energy is absorbed by cytochrome c oxidase, a photosensitive enzyme in the mitochondria. That enzyme boosts mitochondrial ATP production, which means more adenosine triphosphate for cellular energy. More ATP fuels repair, renewal, and collagen synthesis.
Low-level light therapy (LLLT) is the clinical term for this approach. Unlike ablative lasers that damage tissue to trigger healing, LED therapy delivers energy without any thermal injury.
Treatment applications: Collagen stimulation, inflammation reduction, post-procedure healing acceleration, acne reduction, redness calming, skin rejuvenation
Your Treatment
What to Expect
See Beyond Beauty's LED sessions are simple, comfortable, and effective.
Protocol Assessment
Dr. Joon Lee's team determines the optimal approach — standalone session, post-treatment add-on, or part of a multi-step facial. Wavelength selection and session duration are customized to your goals.
Preparation
The treatment area is cleansed. Eye protection is provided. You recline comfortably while the LED panel is positioned at the correct distance from your skin.
Photobiomodulation Exposure
The LED panel delivers red and near-infrared light for 15 to 30 minutes. You feel gentle warmth but no discomfort. Many patients find the session deeply relaxing.
Post-Session
No recovery is needed. Your skin may appear slightly flushed with a healthy glow. You can apply skincare products, makeup, and resume all activities immediately.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Is LED Red Light Therapy the same as a tanning bed or UV light?
No. LED therapy uses wavelengths of 630 to 850nm. These wavelengths contain no ultraviolet radiation. There is no risk of UV damage, sunburn, or increased skin cancer risk. LED photobiomodulation heals and repairs, while UV exposure damages.
How many sessions do I need to see results?
Most patients notice reduced redness and calmer skin after 3 to 5 sessions. Collagen-building benefits develop over 8 to 12 weeks of consistent treatment. As a post-procedure add-on, benefits are immediate — faster healing and less inflammation after [microneedling](/services/microneedling/) or laser sessions.
Can LED Red Light Therapy treat acne?
Red and near-infrared wavelengths reduce the inflammation that drives acne breakouts and accelerate healing of active lesions. LED therapy works best as part of a comprehensive acne management plan. Dr. Joon Lee's team recommends the optimal protocol during consultation.
Is there any risk or side effect?
LED Red Light Therapy has an excellent safety profile with no known serious side effects at therapeutic doses. The treatment is non-ablative and non-thermal. It is safe for all skin types, including sensitive and reactive skin.
Can I use LED therapy after other treatments?
Yes — that is one of its strongest applications. See Beyond Beauty frequently applies LED Red Light Therapy immediately after microneedling, the [Biostimulatory Lifting Facial](/services/biostimulatory-lifting-facial/), [PicoSure](/services/picosure/), and other procedures to reduce post-procedure inflammation and accelerate the wound healing response.
