Red light therapy

Emerging evidence

Red light therapy (photobiomodulation) exposes skin or tissue to specific wavelengths of red or near-infrared light. It has reasonable evidence for some skin uses and more preliminary evidence for others.

Updated 28 June 2026

What red light therapy involves

Also called photobiomodulation, red light therapy uses specific wavelengths of red or near-infrared light, applied via panels or devices, proposed to influence cellular energy and tissue repair.

What to consider when choosing a clinic

Evidence is reasonably supportive for certain dermatologic uses (such as skin appearance and some wound or hair applications) and more preliminary for broader 'recovery' or 'longevity' claims; dose, wavelength and device quality matter. Treat sweeping claims cautiously and ask about the specific protocol and the indication you're interested in.

Frequently asked questions

What is red light therapy?
Exposure to specific wavelengths of red or near-infrared light (photobiomodulation), applied via panels or devices, proposed to support cellular energy and tissue repair.
Does red light therapy work?
There is reasonable evidence for some skin and hair applications and more preliminary evidence for general recovery or longevity claims. Results depend on dose, wavelength and consistency.
How much does it cost?
Costs vary by clinic and whether you buy sessions or a home device. Ask the provider about protocols and pricing.
What should I expect?
Short, repeated sessions exposing the target area to light. It is generally low-risk; eye protection and correct dosing matter.
Where can I get red light therapy?
Browse the verified clinics listed on this page, then contact a provider directly.
What does the "Emerging evidence" rating mean for Red light therapy?
We rate Red light therapy "Emerging": there is a plausible biological mechanism and early or limited human data, but not yet robust long-term trials with hard outcomes — promising, but not proven. Our ratings are a simplified mapping of recognised evidence-grading systems such as GRADE and the Oxford CEBM levels of evidence. How we rate evidence
