For some reason none here seem to have discussed this easy to use and nice to use lamp. Along with this red light therapy has thousands of studies to back up its health claims. This is in sharp contrast to your average Looksmax.org advice.

This post is going to be divided into three sections, first I am going to talk about why red light is logicaly going to help you when looking at anthropology and how humans are supposed to live, secondly im showing a plethora of studies on red light, last im going to talk about some tips to get you started on using red light terapy.
Red light
Logic behind red light therapy
"Good looks = health"
We all know these kinds of copers, muhhh just workout, eat broccoli, chicken and rice, shower and brush your teeth. This will make you healthy and women are basically atructed to signs of heaulth so this will be all you need, also be nice, muhhh. This is cope of course, eating healthy and having healthy habits aren't gonna change the weak ass bones in your face. On top of that working out under blue lights and eating broccoli and rice aren't good for your health but this is something for a next post).
But actually becoming healthier is going to improve your looks if you do things that are actually making you healthier(Like eating an ancesterally and light correct diet, having a good light environment, and for example doing red light therapy). This sound woo woo but wait for further threads.
Red light will especially help with big looksmins like acne.
So why dont people need to buy this extra red light lamp? Well because we don't go outside enough and if we go outside we don't go early enough in the day, the ideal would be at sunset. In the past people would wake up earlier and be outside more so they would not need this lamp. On top of that this lamp releases a therapeutic dose of red light and is stronger then the sun. A good red light lamp is has the followng advantages over normal sunlight.
How does it work?
The exact mechanisms of photobiomodulation are not completely understood, but the effects have been clinically studied1. "Studies seem to show that light acts on the mitochondria of cells, which leads to increased production of different factors that increase the proteins and factors that allow cells to communicate," Ilyas explains.
By allowing the cells to communicate, red light therapy essentially helps your skin work more effectively. "This may help stimulate collagen production and other factors that help with skin remodeling," Illyas says.
The activation of these mitochondria also appears to stimulate the production of growth factors and reduce oxidative stress in the skin—both things that can improve the health of the skin2, according to board-certified dermatologist Apple Bodemer, M.D. She goes onto explain that these also have anti-inflammatory benefits3.
And one of the easiest ways to explain how red light (RLT) and other low-level light therapies work is to compare it to other traditional skin care devices like lasers and intense pulsed light (IPL).
"Lasers traditionally work by causing controlled damage in the skin in an attempt to trigger an inflammatory reaction," she notes. This can result in positive changes such as wrinkle reduction, improved hyperpigmentation, or reduced redness, Ilyas says.
"Red light therapies and other LLLTs are different in that they are atraumatic to the skin," she says. Meaning that instead of creating microtraumas that trigger healing, they start to positively impact the skin right away. Pretty cool, right?
The best part? "The effects are seen without the discomfort, healing time, and possible reactive swelling that are seen with traditional laser and IPL platforms," she notes. Translation: You're tending to the skin on a cellular level without a bunch of negative side effects—more on that in a bit.
How long red light therapy takes to yield the results you're after will differ greatly depending on how consistently you receive red light therapy, the tools used, and of course, the results you're after. But you should be seeing more dramatic results after a few weeks to a month.
Study's that back up red light
I could put thousands of studies here to back up the science of red light therapy but here are just the most important ones.
Balding: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8577899/
conclussion:
The effect of 650-nm red light on ex vivo hair follicles and the transcriptome set which implicates the role of red light in promoting hair growth and reversing of miniaturization process of AGA were identified.
Acne: https://www.jaad.org/article/S0190-9622(19)31360-X/abstract
conclussion: Significant improvements in both lesional and nonlesional acne were also observed with the light treatment. Subjects also reported significant improvements (P < .05) in their acne and skin appearance parameters
Autism: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9680350/
conclussion: This treatment has been shown in a range of pathological conditions-to improve the key changes that characterise autism, including the functional connectivity and survival patterns of neurones, the patterns of gliosis and inflammation and the composition of the microbiome. We highlight the idea that photobiomodulation may form an ideal treatment option for autism, one that is certainly worthy of further investigation.
Weightloss: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26220050/
conclussion: red light therapy enhances the physical exercise effects in obese women undergoing weight loss treatment promoting significant changes in inflexibility metabolic profile.
collagen: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3926176/
conclussion: RLT and ELT are large-area and full-body treatment modalities for skin rejuvenation and improvements in skin feeling and skin complexion. The application of RLT and ELT provides a safe, non-ablative, non-thermal, atraumatic photobiomodulation treatment of skin tissue with high patient satisfaction rates. RLT and ELT can extend the spectrum of anti-aging treatment options available to patients looking for mild and pleasant light-only skin rejuvenation.
Advice for red light therapy use
So it is really important that you buy the right red lamp. You do not want a lamp the flickers or emits too much emf, you also want a lamp that has high irradiance. I personally bought the firewave pro which cost like $350 dollars. Might be too much money for you fajeeds in India but the rest of us westerncells can probably afford it and I definetely think a good red light lamp is worth the money.
Also for safety reasons, read the instructions on how to use the lamp. tldr: start at a distance of 2 feet (60 cm) and do not try it for longer then 5 minutes on the first attempt. On top of that you should wear red light blocking glasses.
tldr: red light reduces inflammation, Why do we need to buy an expensive lamp for this? Because all you lazy fucks dont touch some trass and go outside. On top if this it can make you more NT by reducing autism.

- Can be used any time, including night time.
- Can be used indoors, in privacy.
- Healthy spectrum of light
- Intensity can be varied
- No harmful UV light
- Potentially improves energy production
- Reduces pain significantly
- Does not lead to a sun tan

How does it work?
Red light works via a phenomenon called photobiomodulation. "This is where different components of our cells are activated or respond to different wavelengths of light," board-certified dermatologist Erum Ilyas, M.D., MBE, FAAD, tells mbg.The exact mechanisms of photobiomodulation are not completely understood, but the effects have been clinically studied1. "Studies seem to show that light acts on the mitochondria of cells, which leads to increased production of different factors that increase the proteins and factors that allow cells to communicate," Ilyas explains.

How long does it take to work?
"A brighter and more radiant complexion is achieved after just one session. But completing multiple sessions will yield greater results over time," master esthetician Sarah Akram once told mbg.How long red light therapy takes to yield the results you're after will differ greatly depending on how consistently you receive red light therapy, the tools used, and of course, the results you're after. But you should be seeing more dramatic results after a few weeks to a month.
