If you want to get the most out of your aesthetic treatments and feel better while you heal, our red light therapy in Valparaiso is the perfect complement to your routine. This noninvasive treatment uses specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light to penetrate the skin, stimulating cellular energy production, calming inflammation, and accelerating the body’s natural healing process. It’s the ideal add-on to elevate the results of your favorite services. Use red light therapy to support:
Red light therapy offers a wide range of benefits, both on its own and as a powerful add-on to your other services.
Red light therapy energizes your cells at the mitochondrial level, accelerating the body's natural repair process so you bounce back faster from microneedling, laser, and other aesthetic treatments.
By stimulating collagen production and improving circulation, red light therapy amplifies the rejuvenating effects of your other services, helping you get more out of every appointment.
The soothing wavelengths of red and near-infrared light help reduce post-treatment redness, swelling, and irritation, leaving your skin more comfortable as it heals.
Our online treatment planning tool provides personalized recommendations based on your goals.
Red light therapy requires very little preparation. Please arrive with clean skin (no makeup, lotions, or sunscreen on the treated area) so the light can penetrate effectively. If you are using red light therapy as an add-on to another service, your provider will fold it into your appointment seamlessly.
Avoid applying photosensitizing products, such as retinols, immediately before your session.
There is no downtime with red light therapy. You can return to your normal activities right away. If you have received red light therapy alongside another treatment such as microneedling or a laser service, follow the aftercare instructions provided for that primary treatment.
Hydrate well, apply a gentle moisturizer, and use SPF when heading outdoors.
Red light therapy delivers specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light into the skin and underlying tissue. These wavelengths are absorbed by the mitochondria in your cells, boosting energy production and supporting the body’s natural repair processes. The result is reduced inflammation, faster healing, increased collagen production, and an overall improvement in skin tone and texture.
At Icon Aesthetics, red light therapy is more than a standalone service. We integrate it strategically with your other treatments, such as Morpheus8 microneedling, laser resurfacing, IPL, facials, and our functional wellness services, to help you heal faster and get even better results from each appointment. Our team is trained to recommend the right combination of services for your goals.
Yes. Red light therapy is an excellent add-on to most of our facial rejuvenation and functional treatments. Patients commonly pair it with microneedling, laser, IPL, facials, and chemical peels to speed tissue healing and enhance results. It can also be used in conjunction with several of our functional treatments to support recovery.
Just ask your provider whether red light therapy is a good fit for your appointment.
Red light therapy is generally well-tolerated, but patients who are pregnant, take photosensitizing medications, or have certain medical conditions, such as active skin cancer in the treatment area or a history of light-sensitive disorders, should consult with their doctor before treatment.
Red light therapy is one of the most gentle treatments we offer. Most clients experience no side effects at all. Some may notice mild, temporary warmth or slight redness in the treated area, which typically resolves within a short time. Consult with your provider if you experience unexpected, persistent, or worsening symptoms.
The number of sessions depends on your goals. When used as an add-on for healing and enhanced results, a single session paired with each of your aesthetic treatments may be all you need. For standalone skin and wellness benefits, we typically recommend a series of sessions, with the exact number tailored to your individual treatment plan.
