The LMNT Red Light Therapy Treatment
Not every solution to skin concerns requires serums, chemicals, needles, or big loud devices. Sometimes all you need to enhance and improve your skin is a little light. Your Cosmetic Office in Encinitas, California, offers Red Light therapy to
patients seeking to correct concerns related to aging, acne, scarring, healing, and texture. Double board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Mario Yco and his team employ the use of red light therapy to restore firm skin and correct a multitude of other issues.
What is LMNT Red Light?
Red light therapy is a non-invasive therapeutic technique that utilizes specific wavelengths of red light to stimulate cellular activity and promote healing within the body. The red light, that is emitted by a handheld device, penetrates the skin’s surface and is absorbed by the mitochondria, the powerhouse of the cell. This interaction triggers a cascade of cellular events, including enhancing cellular function, improving blood circulation, and reducing inflammation. Red light therapy has shown promise in a variety of applications, from promoting wound healing and reducing pain to stimulating collagen production for skin rejuvenation. Its non-thermal and non-invasive nature makes it a safe and versatile therapeutic modality with potential benefits across a range of medical and cosmetic applications.

Who Is a Candidate for Red Light Therapy?
Ideal candidates for red light therapy include individuals seeking to improve the appearance of the following concerns:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Stubborn Acne
- Appearance of scars
- Lost collagen
Red Light therapy is also a great way to promote and accelerate healing in the body. Dr. Yco may suggest red light therapy after you have had a cosmetical surgical, or non-surgical, procedure performed in order to optimize your recovery.
Red Light Procedure
Red light therapy with LMNT involves placing a handheld device directly on the skin of the treatment site while the red light and micro pulses get to work rejuvenating and energizing the skin. The best part about LMNT red light therapy is that there is no recovery or downtime required. In fact, it can help to make your recovery from other procedures easier and quicker. Treatments take anywhere from 5-10 minutes.
Post-Op Care
There is no recovery associated with red light therapy. Because you will need more than one session, you must work with Dr. Yco to develop a treatment plan.
