Episode 4: Fillers

Photobiomodulation (LED or LLLT) utilizes light to trigger biological changes.  It primarily involves red (633 nm) and near infrared light (830 nm) for wound healing and tissue repair by promoting cellular growth and regeneration which accelerates the healing process. 

It also helps reduce inflammation and pain in muscular injuries.
Neuroprotective effects are also being studied to enhance cognitive effects and help protect from neural inflammation seen in a variety of disease states of the brain.

PBM is non-invasive, non-thermal and now at home devices are available.
