How Long Does It Take Before You See Results With Red Light Therapy?

Patience is the key to success.

Red light therapy is not a miracle cure that produces instant results. Unlike the instant gratification we are used to, this therapy requires consistency and dedication . Most people see improvement within 4-6 weeks , while others may take up to six months . Compare it with strength training or dieting: your body needs time to recover, strengthen and improve.

Don't be discouraged by a slow start. The benefits certainly come with consistent use. Thousands of people experience the benefits of red light therapy every day, ranging from pain relief to skin rejuvenation and improved sleep.

Tips for consistency:

    • Keep a log of your sessions, including date, duration, area covered, and your experiences. Take before and after photos to monitor your progress. Because you see yourself in the mirror every day, it is difficult to notice change.
    • Set realistic goals for daily use. Start with 5-10 minutes per day and gradually increase the duration or frequency.
    • Focus on your journey to better well-being. Think about what you want to achieve with red light therapy and visualize your success.

How long does a red light therapy session last?

The optimal treatment duration depends on:

  • Goal of treatment: pain relief (10-15 min), skin rejuvenation (5-10 min), etc.
  • Power of the device: higher intensity = shorter duration.
  • Distance from body: closer = more intense = shorter duration.
