What wavelength is best for skin? 🔬Well, studies use both red and NIR light! ✔️

But note the nuance below:

1️⃣ Facial skin doesn’t need a lot of light. A low irradiance of around 20-30W/cm2 is ideal! Place your LUMEBOX 5-6 inches away on a stand for that.

2️⃣ Heat can exacerbate certain skin conditions, e.g., Melasma. Try to make sure your skin doesn’t heat up if you use red light therapy (mask or any other devices). Since NIR generally heats more than red, test with red mode at a low irradiance first!
(P.S. It’s always best to check with your derm if your skin reacts to heat.)

3️⃣ More is not always better for skin. LUMEBOX 5-6 inches away, for 6 minutes is generally enough for most people, but you can increase the time if you feel your skin benefits from longer.

4️⃣ Unlike a face mask (which generally has low irradiance), you can use a powerful device like LUMEBOX for joints or muscles too!

5️⃣ It depends on what you’re targeting. Red light is gentler and ideal for surface concerns like breakouts. For deeper concerns (e.g. skin texture), studies often use red + NIR because NIR may pe*****te a few mm deeper than red alone (to the collagen-supporting layers).
