What to Look For Across Studies

01
☼

Treatment Dose

How much light was delivered, and over what treatment duration?

02
▦

Treatment Frequency

How often was treatment used, and over how many weeks or sessions?

03
◎

Application Area

Where was light applied, and were any protective measures used?

04
◇

Reported Safety

What adverse events, discomfort or tolerability outcomes were reported?

Using Research in Real-World Settings

Research protocols are developed for specific devices, wavelengths, doses and treatment schedules. Practical use should follow the instructions and safety guidance provided for the specific device being used.

Understanding the Evidence

PBM safety studies may use different devices, wavelengths, doses, treatment areas and participant groups. Findings from one study or protocol should not automatically be assumed to apply to every red light device or use case.

Research Note:

Reported safety and tolerability can vary depending on wavelength, irradiance, dose, treatment duration, application area, device design and participant characteristics.
