FAQs About LLLT
About InfinityPro LLLT
The Infinity Pro System is a Low-Level Light Therapy that has Blue, Red, Pink, Yellow, Green, and Infrared Light on the same device. Each color of light available corresponds to a specific wavelength. And because different wavelengths can target specific cellular responses at different depths, the InfinityPro system can treat a variety of skin and vascular conditions making it a comprehensive treatment solution.
Is low-level light therapy safe?
Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT), or photo biomodulation uses specific light wavelengths to stimulate cellular activity and promote healing. Specially designed LED lights emit various wavelengths, each offering unique benefits. LLLT is considered a safe, non-invasive procedure with minimal risk of side effects. Additionally, there is no downtime or recovery required, allowing patients to resume their normal activities immediately .
How should I prepare for my appointment?
Make sure your face is clean, dry, and free of any products. Stop using tanning products, photosensitive medications, or exfoliating creams 1-2 weeks before treatment. After treatment, avoid sun or use sunscreen for two weeks.
What can I expect during a LLLT session?
You will be comfortably seated, and the LLLT device will be set up over the treatment area with protective eyewear provided. The device will be applied at a consistent distance and angle for uniform light exposure. Sessions typically last from a few minutes to half an hour, with the frequency and total number of sessions depending on the condition being treated.
How is LLLT therapy different from other dry eye treatments?
Unlike traditional treatments that offer temporary relief, our InfinityPro LLLT addresses the root cause of dry eye by stimulating the blood vessels and glands, restoring natural oil production. This non invasive therapy treats Meibomian Gland Dysfunction, reduces inflammation, and provides significant symptom relief. It is also effective against bacterial infections like Blepharitis, styes, and hordeolum, broadening its therapeutic scope.
Can LLLT be combined with other treatments for dry eye?
LLLT is an excellent complement to other dry eye treatments, such as Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), artificial tears, prescription medications, and lifestyle modifications. It can enhance the effectiveness of these treatments and provide synergistic benefits, leading to improved outcomes.
