Post-operative wounds <\/strong>can be slow to heal, with swelling, redness, and oozing<\/strong> often reported for some time after surgery<\/strong>. While following a strict wound cleaning regime and finishing any prescribed antibiotics is essential, often some extra help is needed to speed up the healing process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Light therapy<\/strong> has shown several benefits when used for surgical wounds:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The wound area receives more oxygen and nutrients to help with the natural wound healing process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Light therapy promotes lymph system activity<\/strong> \u2013 this helps with detoxification of the wound<\/strong> without overtaxing the lymph system and prevents lymphoedema. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Light rays clean up dead cells: boosted blood circulation<\/strong> helps with cleaning up dead or damaged cells, including dead bacteria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It promotes collagen production<\/strong> \u2013 as proven in many studies, red light waves stimulates collagen and elastin production in the final wound healing phases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It helps release ATP<\/strong> (raw cellular energy) which gives energy to the damaged cells<\/strong> in the wound so they can heal better and faster (study<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
