Looking for a red light therapy near me that delivers visible anti-aging benefits without harsh treatments or downtime? At Catara Med Spa in Algonquin, we offer FDA-approved Red LED Light Therapy that supports collagen production and renews your skin from within gently and effectively.
Red LED Light Therapy
The primary cause of sagging skin and wrinkles is the loss of collagen and elastin production as you age. Collagen and elastin are proteins in your skin that provide structure—giving it a firm, youthful appearance.
Red LED Light Therapy uses therapeutic wavelengths of 650 nm to penetrate the skin and promote healing at the cellular level—stimulating collagen, reducing redness and inflammation, and providing healing properties. Red LED light is an effective way to support your skin by managing aging, reducing sensitivity and recovery from treatments.
Red light therapy in Algonquin at CATARA Medical Spa is a favorite add-on to any treatment. It is a non-invasive approach to skin rejuvenation with no downtime.
