LED at home light therapy
I am very interested about the LED at home light therapy systems that are available in the market. I have been doing research on this technology for a while but haven’t found much information to be totally convinced. I was wondering if you could give your opinion on these products. Whether they are worth spending $300 or not and are they really effective in increasing skin’s natural collagen production? One of the items that I have been looking at is LED Technologies, LLC’s DPL system. The company got FDA approval recently for using the system as a tool for temporary relief for pain and increase blood circulation. Your suggestion will be highly valuable to me.
LED technology came from NASA from the space program. We use it in the office to boost healing and specifically collagen production. The professional strength machines have a subtle but real effect. The at-home machines, because they are of such low power, have a very small effect and there is no assurance that the machine you buy will have a meaningfully visible effect on your skin.
