Tan Zone Introduces Collagen Red Light Therapy

Rejuvenating Red Light Collagen Therapy

Skin rejuvenation is no longer a myth, but a matter of having the right knowledge combined with the right application device. Light therapy anti-aging skincare with UV-free collagen fluorescent lamps are the new affordable and rejuvenating alternative to invasive techniques, such as plastic surgery or laser treatments.

Research studies, many experts and dermatologists indicate that red light therapy (or phototherapy) tightens skin and improves skin’s elasticity by using visible light in the 633nm region, which also stimulates our body’s photobiostimulation. This process has a great impact on our connective tissue, the network of our body, which consists primarily of collagen, water and non-collagen proteins. The wavelength activates and speeds up the production of collagen and elastin – two vital skin ingredients responsible for achieving an anti-wrinkle effect.
The advantages of anti-aging light therapy with collagen lamps are simple:

  • No harmful side effects
  • Free of discomfort
  • No damage to the skin
  • No pain
  • No downtime
And while skin firming products, lasers, and surgery enhance mostly facial skin or other targeted areas, collagen lamps make it easy to give your entire body’s ageing skin a youthful look.
