Abstract. Five decades after the first documented use of a laser for wound healing, research in light therapy has yet to elucidate the underlying biochemical pathways causing its effects. The aim of this review is to summarize the current research into the biochemical mechanisms of light therapy in order to better direct future studies.
Low-level light therapy (LLLT) or PBM consists of the application of light with the purpose of promoting tissue repair, decreasing inflammation, and producing analgesia, usually using a low-power light source (laser or LED) .
19 kwi 2024 · At the heart of light therapy lies a deep understanding of the intricate interplay between light and skin biology. Dermatologists wield this knowledge to address a spectrum of skin diseases that will be further developed later.
Light is a powerful environmental factor influ-encing diverse brain functions. Clinical evidence supports the beneficial efect of light therapy on several diseases, including depression, cognitive dysfunction, chronic pain, and sleep disorders. However, the precise mechanisms underlying the efects of light therapy are still not well understood.
