The main use of LED output narrow 415 nanometers of blue light and 633 nanometers of red light, all the energy to act on the target target Propionibacterium acnes, the application of photodynamic principle, so that the photosensitizer O Lin within Propionibacterium acnes is activated by 415 nanometers of blue light or 633 nanometers of red light, resulting in a phototoxic environment, converted into phototoxic mono-tertaxane quickly kill Propionibacterium acnes, the skin acne cleared. .
2.Is it better to shine red light or blue light first?
Red light is generally better than blue light when the inflammatory period is heavy, as the anti-inflammatory ability of red light is better than blue light, while blue light is better during the recovery period, as blue light has the effect of promoting tissue repair and is more suitable for the recovery period.
