HOW DOES RED LIGHT THERAPY WORK?
RED LIGHT REBUILDS CELLULAR WALLS.
Photobiomodulation is directly pro-metabolic as it induces an increase in ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) production from the mitochondria which is better understood as an increase in energy. Our mitochondria require light to function properly. Red light therapy supplements environmental light with concentrated doses of red light, which is the specific spectrum the mitochondria use to produce ATP (energy).
During a treatment, a light source is applied near or on your skin, allowing the photons to penetrate your skin tissue. A chain of complex physiological reactions occur, particularly in damaged tissues, and the process of cell repair is activated and accelerated. The sessions last for 10-12 minutes and it is recommended multiple times per week for several weeks to see the full benefits of the treatment.

THE BEAUTY ANGEL USES RED LIGHT AND VIBRA SHAPE FOR A TOTAL SKIN AND BODY REJUVENATION SYSTEM.
The Beauty Angel combines red light rays and the optional vibra shape platform for a full body makeover. Originally developed for the European Space Agency to condition and train the muscles of astronauts during their missions, the same advanced vibration platform technology is used in the Beauty Angel. This leading-edge device utilizes higher and more effective frequencies than other vibration platforms, yet the motion is smoother and more gentle on the joints. The results easily surpass anything else in the industry. You can enjoy light movement as well as endurance.
Clients have a selection of four programs. The vibration program runs for 10 minutes in each program setting, but the intensity and duration can be set individually. User-friendly voice guide technology walks the customer through the available options and informs the user of changes in intensity throughout the session.
VIBRASHAPE PLATFORM
PROGRAM ONE
Feel Great (low intensity)
This program improves flexibility, loosens and relaxes muscles with gentle movements at low-impact vibration frequency.
VIBRASHAPE PLATFORM
PROGRAM TWO
New You (medium intensity)
Designed for beginners and ideal for those starting a fitness regimen, this program utilizes medium frequency vibration and massage technology to gradually improve muscle tone appearance with controlled, alternating movements.
VIBRASHAPE PLATFORM
PROGRAM THREE
Cross-Training (high intensity)
Using intense vibration combined with high frequency interval training, this balanced program strengthens muscles with powerful movements. It‘s excellent for sports and exercise enthusiasts.
VIBRASHAPE PLATFORM
PROGRAM FOUR
Multi-Level (mixed intensity)
A mixed frequency cycle targets specific muscle groups in the legs, abs, arms and glutes to help tone and tighten muscles. T his program provides an energizing workout.
“BETTER THAN BOTOX” BECAUSE RED LIGHT BOOSTS COLLAGEN AND PROTECTS ELASTIN.
Collagen and elastin are the proteins responsible for giving your skin the structure and elasticity found in younger skin. The body produces less collagen and elastin with age, leading to fine lines, wrinkles, and papery skin. By increasing the functioning of the mitochondria to optimize ATP production and cellular energy, red light therapy allows skin cells to protect existing collagen and elastin, and to increase collagen production, thereby reversing the effects of aging.
The light rays can increase collagen production and strengthen elastic using non-invasive technology. Procedures such as dermal fillers, botox, and dermabrasion are more effective, but many have significant drawbacks: they’re often invasive, sometimes painful, and expensive. Not to mention botox and filler can substantially change the shape of your features and face.
On the other hand, red light therapy, is affordable, completely safe, painless, and—most importantly—effective. Further, the additional health benefits experienced to the rest of the body are an added bonus!
IMPROVE FERTILITY with RED LIGHT only at the YALETOWN location.
Red light therapy is prescribed by fertility specialists to improve cellular energy and improve the chances of conceiving. With the popular mindset that declining egg quality and ageing is an irreversible process, clients often are left with little hope. Because there are few options to improve fertility red light is becoming a popular choice for those struggling to conceive.
Recent studies in Japan and clinical results in Denmark have delivered very promising results in this direction:
-
Danish and Norwegian research showed that light therapy had a pregnancy rate of 66% success for women who had had at least 4 years of failure with other assisted reproductive technology methods.
-
In a study out of Japan by Dr. Kazunori Nakamura, data revealed a doubling in the day 5 blastocyst rate for those who had the combination of acupuncture and near-infrared light therapy leading up to and during their IVF cycle.

DISCOVER RED LIGHT TO RELIEVE PAIN RELIEF, SKIN BREAKOUTS AND BOOST ENERGY.
People see benefits using red light therapy for treating many types of pain, from head to toe including chronic, joint, neck, osteoarthritis, and more. Because it provides targeted pain relief, it’s incredibly versatile for various conditions.
There is significant evidence that shows using red light therapy on a cold sore not only shortens its life span but also reduces cold sores in the future. Because of this, red light therapy is one of the top recommended treatments for cold sores.
A study involving twenty female athletes exposed them to 30 minutes of red light therapy for 14 continuous days. The subjects experienced increased melatonin levels, better sleep, and even better playing performance.
IMPROVE THE EFFICIENCY OF YOUR RED LIGHT SESSION.
After and during a session your skin is more absorbent so the efficacy of products are higher. This gives us a tremendous advantage to get more benefits out of a potent skin care product.
As red light has grown in both in studies and in popularity we see more and more skin care products entering the market to be used to increase your results.
For our experience there seems to be two types of products. Firstly, there are intensifiers that boost collagen production and deliver unbelievable skin care to strengthen and soften the skin. Our most popular products in this category are Endless Vacation and Hot! Hybrid which are both made by Australian Gold. There are products both smell phenomenal and deliver on their promise to transform your skin.
Secondly, there are product lines that filter out the harmful HEV blue rays that are produced as a by product of the red light. Filtering out the blue rays allows the user to get more benefit of the red light during their session. The RestoRED product line (pictured below) is the only line we know that filters out blue light and boosts collagen and elastin production. Further, they use certified organic aloe as a base for most of their products and a convenient prep spray for easy application.
The right product for you depends on your purpose for using red light therapy. Be sure to share with us your goals so we can recommend the best product for you.
WHO IS RED LIGHT BEST FOR?
Anyone who is unhappy with the vitamin supplements they are taking or want to target stubborn skin concerns that even expensive treatments can’t solve.
HOW SOON DO I SEE RESULTS?
You will see an energetic flush to the skin each time you use the Beauty Angel. To see a texture change in the skin use the Beauty Angel 2 – 3 times weekly for one month.
For changes in hair, nails, fine lines, wrinkles and fading of dark spots use the Beauty Angel 2 – 3 times weekly for 3 months. Following 3 months you can reduce to maintenance sessions 1 – 2 times weekly.

DO I NEED EYE PROTECTION?
Yes. However red light therapy will not harm your eyes. Eye protection is for comfort and sun glasses can be used.
WHAT TIME OF DAY SHOULD YOU USE RED LIGHT THERAPY?
It’s whatever works best for you. While using red light therapy you may prefer to use it in the morning or evening depending on what benefits you are experiencing. Some people like to enjoy the benefits of how they feel after a session to make their day better, so they will enjoy using it the morning. Others enjoy a relaxed feeling after a session so they choose to use it in the evening.
DOES RED LIGHT TREAT ACNE AND SUN SPOTS?
Yes! Red light therapy (RLT) is a treatment that uses low wavelength red light to reportedly improve your skin’s appearance, such as reducing wrinkles, scars, redness and acne.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU USE RED LIGHT THERAPY FOR SLEEP?
For sleep benefits, people should incorporate light therapy into their daily routine. You often notice these results immediately.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU USE RED LIGHT FOR SKIN OUT BREAKS?
For skin conditions like cold sores, canker sores, and genital sores, it’s best to use light therapy treatments when you first feel a tingle and suspect that an outbreak is emerging. Then, use light therapy every day while you’re experiencing symptoms.
CAN I COMBINE RED LIGHT WITH UV TANNING?
Yes. In fact, combining red light with UV Tanning is recommended. Red light therapy increases the absorption and efficacy of cosmetic products. This means when you apply your tanning lotion to tan after a red light session the tanning lotion will work even better!
Another reason we UV tan after red light is because we want our skin to be free of any debris or products not specifically made for red light, otherwise your skin won’t be able to absorb the light rays.
CAN I COMBINE RED LIGHT WITH FULL SPECTRUM INFRARED SAUNA?
Absolutely. The benefits between infrared sauna and red light therapy are complimentary. Although the infrared sauna has benefits to the skin, the infrared rays penetrate the skin much deeper and allow your body to expel toxins through sweating. Red light therapy is primarily focused more on skin conditions.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NEAR INFRARED AND RED LIGHT?
The term “red light therapy” often includes wavelengths in both the visible spectrum of light: red, from 630–660 nanometers (nm); and the invisible infrared spectrum (810–850nm), which is considered near-infrared.
IF I USE NEAR - INFRARED THERAPY IS THERE ANY ADDED BENEFIT TO USING RED LIGHT?
It is generally accepted that a combination of red light therapy and near infrared light is the best for anti-aging. We know that near infrared light penetrates more deeply than red light and can increase blood circulation, which can help to improve health.
BEFORE AND AFTER
3 month program
3 – 4 times weekly
HOW MANY SESSIONS DO I NEED FOR "BETTER THAN BOTOX?"
Results are cumulative. Due to the nature of rebuilding cellular walls and stimulating collagen production expect to see short term results within one month (using the Beauty Angel 2 – 3 times per week) and long term results after 3 months.
Short term results (1 months)
- Refines the pores and improves the complexion
- Increases the skins moisture and oxygen levels
- Stimulates the collagen and elastin production and vitalises the skin
- Improves the absorption and effect of cosmetic products
Long term results (3 months)
- Replenished elastin in cells and skin
- Reduces swelling and dark rings around the eyes
- Substantial reduction wrinkles in facial and neckline areas
- Detoxifies the skin and encourages cell regeneration
- Fills the connecting tissues with collagen and elastin – for visibly firmer skin on the entire body
HOW LONG WILL YOUR RESULTS LAST?
The results are not permanent. As your skin cells turn over, you may lose some collagen and start to see signs of aging again. We suggest 1 – 2 sessions per week for maintenance.
