What is Low Level Light Therapy?

LLLT, also known as photobiomodulation, offers groundbreaking technology that harnesses the power of low-level light in order to stimulate cellular activity and promote healing. This cutting-edge procedure offers a variety of medical solutions from pain management and wound healing to cosmetic dermatological rehabilitation. LLLT offers the ability to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and accelerate tissue repair. Medical grade LLLT is a non-invasive and safe treatment that offers the highest energy levels on the market that will ensure potent and efficacious treatments. The process will stimulate your meibomian glands to secrete oils that keep your eyes moist.
