What Is Red Light Therapy?
Red Light Therapy (RLT), also known as photobiomodulation (PBM), is a form of light treatment that delivers red wavelengths of light to the skin and deeper tissues.
When delivered at specific wavelengths—most notably 635nm—this light energy is absorbed by the mitochondria, the “powerhouses” of your cells.
This stimulates ATP production, enhancing cellular repair, regeneration, and performance across multiple systems in the body.
Our Medwave™ device are 3-5x more powerful than conventional red light contouring.
It also utilises 585 LED focal lenses to deliver more powerful photonic energy than typical red light contouring — this more narrowed, focused design.
The Power of 635nm Narrow Light Wavelengths
635nm red light is a highly specific wavelength in the visible red spectrum that's been shown to:
Activate mitochondrial function and ATP production
Stimulate collagen and elastin synthesis in the skin
Trigger lipolysis (the breakdown of stored fat) in adipose tissue
Increase blood flow and oxygenation
Promote anti-inflammatory effects and reduce oxidative stress
MedWave™ technology uses narrowband light, which focuses the light emission for maximum therapeutic absorption—without damaging surrounding tissues.

Is Red Light Therapy Backed by Research?
Yes. Red light therapy has been extensively studied for decades in both clinical and research settings.
Thousands of peer-reviewed studies have demonstrated its effectiveness across a wide range of conditions, including:
Skin health: Improved texture, tone, elasticity, and reduction in fine lines
Fat loss: Reduction in circumference and cellulite via mitochondrial fat release
Wound healing: Accelerated tissue repair and inflammation reduction
Pain relief: Support for arthritis, muscle recovery, and joint inflammation
Metabolic support: Improved energy, hormonal regulation, and mitochondrial performance
How Long Has It Been Used?
Red light therapy has been used in clinical settings since the 1960s, originally explored in Eastern Europe and further developed by NASA in the 1980s to promote healing in zero gravity.
Since then, it has been widely adopted in:
✔ Medical clinics
✔ Sports and rehab centres
✔ Dermatology and aesthetic practices
✔ Chiropractic and wellness facilities
✔ Elite athletic programs and physiotherapy practices
