Is red light therapy worth it?

Yes, for most people who use it consistently. Red light therapy (photobiomodulation) uses red and near-infrared light to help your skin cells produce more energy. Research on photobiomodulation suggests this can improve the look of tone, texture and firmness over a few weeks. Because results depend on regular sessions, an unlimited membership is far better value than paying $27 to $150 per visit elsewhere.

The science, simply

What is red light therapy, and how does it work?

Red light therapy, known scientifically as photobiomodulation, uses specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light. When that light reaches the mitochondria inside your skin cells, it helps them produce more energy (ATP). Research on photobiomodulation suggests that extra energy can support collagen production, calm inflammation and speed the skin's natural repair. It is not UV light, so it will not tan your skin or cause UV damage.

Red light · 630–660nm

Absorbed at the surface of the skin to support tone, texture and the look of fine lines.

Near-infrared · 810–850nm

Penetrates deeper into the dermis to support collagen density, firmness and recovery.

Cellular energy (ATP)

Light absorbed by the mitochondria boosts cellular energy, the engine behind healthy-looking skin.

Not UV, no tan

Red light therapy does not use UV, so it will not darken or damage your skin.

Getting results

How often should you do red light therapy?

For visible results, most people do 3 to 5 sessions a week to start, then settle into a maintenance routine. Skin changes build gradually over about 4 to 12 weeks, and studies suggest the benefits can last for months. Because consistency is what drives results, unlimited access matters more than any single session, which is exactly what your membership gives you.

Is red light therapy safe? Is it the same as UV tanning?
No, it is not UV. Red light therapy does not tan the skin or cause UV damage. It uses red and near-infrared wavelengths and is widely considered safe for regular use; a 2023 research review found no link to serious adverse events.
How often should I do red light therapy?
Most guests aim for 3 to 5 sessions a week to start, with visible changes over roughly 4 to 12 weeks. With the Red Light Therapy or Titanium membership you can come as often as you like.
What are the benefits of red light therapy?

Is this better than the red light booth at my gym?
Ours is LED, not fluorescent, which delivers a more consistent dosage to the skin for more tangible results than the booths at many gyms. You also get full-body Rejuv beds and targeted POLY devices, not a single shared booth.
