Is Red Light Therapy Safe?

Red Light Therapy is Safe!

Red light therapy is widely considered to be:

  • Natural
  • Safe
  • Well-tolerated

Side Effects

Unlike salon tanning beds, red light therapy does not use harmful ultraviolet (UV) light that can damage the skin and cause cells to mutate. Because of this, there is typically no risk of side effects from undergoing RLT. However, a novice practitioner or someone who overuses the treatment may cause tissue and cell damage. That’s why Avanti Body offers free consultation to discuss individual needs and proper protocol. Is red light therapy safe? Yes, but but our capacity is required to advise you how and when to do it.

This 2014 study concluded that “the non-invasive nature and almost complete absence of side-effects encourages further testing in dermatology.” 

Precautions 

If you are taking medications please consult your doctor before adding red light to your health and wellness regimen.
