Technical Guide: Understanding LED Wavelengths in Red Light Therapy

Understanding wavelengths is crucial when choosing a red light therapy device. This guide explains the science behind different wavelengths.

Visible Red Light (630-700nm)

These wavelengths are visible to the human eye and primarily affect the skin surface:

• 630nm: Excellent for skin rejuvenation
• 635nm: Promotes collagen production
• 660nm: Deep tissue penetration, muscle recovery

Near-Infrared (NIR) Light (700-1100nm)

These wavelengths are invisible to the human eye but penetrate deeper:

• 810nm: Deep tissue and bone healing
• 830nm: Enhanced wound healing
• 850nm: Pain relief, reducing inflammation

Multi-Wavelength Devices

The most effective devices combine multiple wavelengths to target different depths and conditions. Our X-Series panels feature 5-wavelength technology for comprehensive therapy.
