Dermatologists and aestheticians love it. The green-smoothies-and-self-care crowd love it. The Silicon Valley biohackers are raving about it from the rooftops. Red-light therapy, in all its myriad, high-tech forms, is easily the dominant wellness trend of the last year or so – and if you’re wondering what the fuss is about, we don’t blame you. For those who aren’t up on red-light or are baffled by the Darth Vader-like masks appearing on their social feeds, it’s worth a quick explainer. True to its name, red-light therapy harnesses varying wavelengths of red light (including infrared and near-infrared) to stimulate the skin cells. Benefits are said to include collagen stimulation, wrinkle reduction and the reduction of pigmentation, scarring and redness, and you’ll find it’s pretty much a fixture in every top aesthetic clinic.
