The first indications that infrared light could help <strong>heal skin wounds<\/strong> came from NASA research in the 1960s. The use of red and infrared light is known as <strong>&#8216;red light therapy&#8217;.<\/strong>&nbsp;<sup><mark class=\"has-inline-color has-orange-color\" style=\"background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);\">[1]<\/mark><\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, photobiomodulation is used for <strong>athlete recovery<\/strong> because red and infrared light stimulates proliferation (growth) and differentiation (development) of stem cells. These are<strong> essential<\/strong> in restoring damaged tissues.&nbsp;<sup><mark class=\"has-inline-color has-orange-color\" style=\"background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);\">[2]<\/mark><\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Infrared and red light also stimulates <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/hydrolyzed-collagen-runcollg-gymbeam.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\"><strong>collagen<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;<strong>synthesis<\/strong> and has been shown in studies to improve <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/hair-nails-and-skin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">skin health<\/a>. Adequate collagen production, which declines with age, is essential for slowing wrinkle formation and skin elasticity.

However, irradiating the muscles with infrared light is certainly <strong>no substitute<\/strong> for a <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/what-is-a-healthy-diet-and-how-to-learn-to-eat-healthy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">quality diet<\/a>, a well-constructed <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/how-to-design-a-quality-workout-plan-tips-trainings-most-common-mistakes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">workout<\/a> and plenty of <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/8-ways-to-recover-quickly-after-training\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">rest<\/a>. However, as an <strong>adjunct<\/strong> to a healthy lifestyle, photobiomodulation has the potential to improve recovery and therefore physical performance itself.&nbsp;<sup><mark class=\"has-inline-color has-orange-color\" style=\"background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);\">[4]<\/mark><\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Collagen_sunbeds_also_potentially_emit_UV\"><\/span>Collagen sunbeds also potentially emit UV<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>However, manufacturers of sunbeds that are marketed as &#8220;collagen&#8221; think more about the customer than the science, so red and infrared light is often combined with <strong>UV light<\/strong> to preserve the tanning effect as well. <strong>It is very easy to advertise something that has the potential to stimulate collagen production and tan at the same time.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The truth remains that even a mix of different wavelengths of light will not <strong>prevent potential UV damage<\/strong> to the skin. As a result, one may assume that the positive effects of photobiomodulation will be <strong>minimised<\/strong> due to UV damage. It is therefore necessary to find out in advance whether the sunbed has a UV source or whether it emits only red and infrared light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1124\" height=\"843\" src=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.sk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/iStock-2166576464-1124x843.jpg\" alt=\"Collagen sunbeds also emit UV radiation\" class=\"wp-image-644493\" title=\"Collagen sunbeds also emit UV radiation\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/iStock-2166576464-1124x843.jpg 1124w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/iStock-2166576464-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/iStock-2166576464.jpg 1183w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1124px) 100vw, 1124px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>According to recent studies, <strong>red and infrared light<\/strong> alone has the potential to <strong>regenerate tissues in the body.<\/strong> From skin rejuvenation to regeneration in the case of high intensity exercise, photobiomodulation has some purpose.

Despite promising advertisements about how red light helps with almost everything, it&#8217;s still important to consider health as a whole. Even ageing skin is affected by exercise, diet, <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/why-is-stress-dangerous-and-how-to-reduce-it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">stress<\/a> and <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/how-to-improve-sleep-and-how-it-affects-health-and-muscle-growth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">sleep<\/a>.
