What is Light Therapy?

Light Therapy, also called photobiomodulation, uses specific wavelengths of light to interact with the body at a cellular level.

Red Light was first explored by NASA in the 1990s to support wound healing in space; it has since been the subject of hundreds of clinical studies for its wide-ranging effects on skin and tissue health.

Today, FDA-cleared devices use medical-grade LEDs to deliver these wavelengths safely and effectively.

Why Light Therapy Works

Your body responds to certain wavelengths of light by converting them into usable energy.

That energy helps cells do what they already do—like renewing, repairing, and restoring themselves—by supporting natural biological processes.

That’s why Light Therapy is trusted by dermatologists, athletes, and estheticians alike.

The Light Spectrum, Explained

Light comes in different wavelengths, each appearing as a different color. These wavelengths penetrate the skin at varying depths, triggering different biological responses depending on how far they reach.

BENEATH THE SURFACE

How Red & Near-Infrared Light Boost Collagen

Collagen naturally declines with age, causing fine lines and sagging.

Red and near-infrared light penetrate the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin.

New collagen strengthens the skin’s structure from within.

Skin appears firmer, smoother, and more plump over time.

Solawave devices are completely safe for at-home use – lab-tested, dermatologist-approved, and non-invasive.
No pain, no irritation, just gentle light doing its job.

Regular red bulbs don’t deliver the specific wavelengths your skin needs.

They might set the mood – but they won’t do much for your skin.

With consistent use – at least 3 times a week – some users see visible changes in as little as 4 weeks. Most studies show more significant results around the 8-week mark.

Light therapy works with your skin’s natural renewal cycle, so showing up regularly makes all the difference.

No. Our devices are designed with eye safety in mind. If you’re sensitive to light, you can wear protective eyewear for added comfort.

Everyone’s skin is different. It’s recommended to do a simple patch test before use to confirm your skin isn’t sensitive to light therapy.
