Biophoton Light Therapy Treatments

To get the most benefits and results from a Biophoton Light Therapy treatment, it's important to understand what the different colors (or wavelengths) can achieve and how they achieve this. The wavelengths used in PHOTON TORCH™ are all within the visible spectrum of light. At one end of the visible light spectrum you have violet light. At the other end of the visible spectrum you have red light. Outside of the visible spectrum is the invisible spectrum consisting at one end, Ultraviolet light (UVA, UVB) and at the other end, Infrared light. (There are MORE wavelengths in the invisible spectrum but these are outside the scope of Biophoton Light Therapy and thus NOT mentioned here.)
NOTE: There are some colors shown in the chart below, which are NOT available for the PHOTON TORCH™.

Basically, wavelengths penetrate the skin at different depths. Of the visible spectrum, Violet light has the lowest penetration rate, whilst Red light has the deepest penetration rate. It's important to know that light wavelengths absorbed at different penetration depths can treat a range of conditions MORE effectively than just a single wavelength penetrating at a single depth.

So, what is each color (or MORE correctly, wavelength) good for treating? We've put a table together below so that you can see what color is helpful for treating what conditions and this will help you to understand how a polychromatic Biophoton Light Therapy treatment can be of greater benefit than just a monochromatic treatment.
LED COLOR NANOMETERS APPLICATIONS
VIOLET 405nm

- Antibacterial
- Psoriasis
- Dermatitis
- Vitiligo
- Acne, oily skin

BLUE 465nm

- Antibacterial
- Attacks current Acne outbreaks
- Soothes sebaceous glands
- Helps alleviate Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D.)

GREEN 530nm

- Calms red or inflamed skin
- Broken red capillaries
- Rosacea
- Fading pigmentation and age spots
- Lessens erythema following treatments and procedures

YELLOW/
AMBER		 590nm
(green & red combined)

- Tightens and tones skin
- Attacks acne on a deeper level which help to prevent future acne outbreaks
- Reducing photoaging, pigmentation and age spots
- Reduce fine lines and wrinkles

RED 660nm

- Collagen stimulation and production
- Increased circulation and cell repair
- Wound healing
- Scar reduction
- Reduce inflammation of sebaceous glands
- Reduce fine lines and wrinkles
- Skin rejuvenation

INFRARED
(invisible to the eye)		 850nm

- Deeper penetration than red light
- Increased wound healing
- Increased scar reduction
- Muscle healing
- Stimulate fibroblasts and collagen production
- Increased circulation

As you can see from the table above, a polychromatic program targeting acne would use a Blue light and a Red light. The Blue light kills the p.acne bacteria, whilst the Red light treats sebaceous gland inflammation and gently rejuvenates the skin. Essentially, this treatment benefits acne sufferers by treating the before and after effects of acne within the one program. A following treatment of Yellow light would help to reduce future outbreaks of acne that have NOT yet reached the surface of the skin.

Since Biophoton Light Therapy is about stimulation of cellular activity, you will see the effects from the treatments over a course of treatments and even after the course of treatments is completed, you will still feel and see the benefits continuing well after.

Biophoton Light Therapy, much like microdermabrasion is NOT a harsh treatment, so there is NO down time for you. Treatments can be completed at any time and you can return to your daily routines at the end of your treatments. Skin may become MORE sensitive to sunlight and this is mostly due to cellular stimulation and activation on a DEEPER level. You are advised to wear NATURAL sunscreen products following their treatments to avoid sunburn.
