What is photobiomodulation?
Step1.
Cell survival
| We will be in illness if the cells in our body do not produce bioenergy that cells can use for survival. |
Cells in our body cannot produce bioenergy if cells are under stress or not healthy. |
| Cells will die eventually if cells cannot produce bioenergy. |
Step2.
Red and NIR light
| It has been known that red and NIR light can penetrate deep into the body and be absorbed by the cells under stress or not healthy, then, the cells can resume producing bioenergy, survive and stay healthy, which will lead our body to be healty again. |
Red and NIR light help biological systems such as human modulated in a beneficial way. This is called Photo-Bio-Modulation (PBM). |
Red and NIR LED PBM is considered benificial, safe and non-invasive. |

The primary target for PBM process is the Cytochrome C Oxidase (CCO), an enzyme which is found in the inner membrane of the cell mitochondria when light is irradiated on the cells. CCO is a vital component of the electron transport chain that drives cellular metabolism called “cell respiration.”
As light is absorbed by CCO, it stimulates the electron transport chain to increase the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) within the mitochondria. When tissue is damaged, the production of ATP in the cell is impaired which slows down the metabolism of the cell as a protective mechanism. PBM helps restore the oxidative process which helps restore normal cellular function.
In addition to ATP, red and NIR light stimulation also helps dissociate nitric oxide from CCO and modulates reactive oxygen species (ROS). Nitric oxide is a powerful vasodilator and an important cellular signaling molecule involved in many physiological processes. ROS have been shown to affect many important physiological signaling pathways including the inflammatory response. Together, increased NO and improved ROS levels provide an environment for faster signaling, resulting in the reduction of inflammation.
What are the benefits of Red and NIR LED PBM?
Electromagnetic wave starts with safe waves such as radio, microwave, infrared leading to visible light spectrum.
Hazardous waves such as x-rays and gamma rays are located at the other end.
The human eye can see wavelengths that range from 400 - 700 nanometers (don’t worry, we’ll explain). The human body can feel parts of the electromagnetic spectrum that cannot be seen, such as far infrared light as heat!
The Science of Photo-bio-modulation (PBM)
For ideal health, all humans require regular exposure to light! A great example is Vitamin D which comes from sunlight. The sun’s rays include the more commonly known ultraviolet light (UV), but more than half of its output is infrared. When it comes to visible light, violet colored light contains the highest energy and red colored light the lowest energy from the visible light.
As mentioned above, this spectrum classifies each form of energy by nanometers and its effect on the human physique. Nanometers are a unit of length equivalent to a billionth of a meter, and they are used to measure the wavelength of light. Since we’re comparing red light to NIR light, it’s important to note their order on the spectrum.
The wavelength of NIR light is longer than the wavelength of red light, which allows NIR light to penetrate more deeply into the body. Thus, NIR light provides some similar, but somewhat different benefits than red light. The science behind these concepts has been around for centuries. Both benefits from red and NIR light have become available as the quality Red and NIR LED PBM devices from Benilight are introduced.
Red light and NIR light from LEDs are both natural, drug / chemical free, non-invasive, effortless, safe, and users have reported no adverse short or long term side effects. While both therapies are beneficial, the type you should choose depends on the outcome you desire. If you want to treat skin conditions on the surface, Red light LED session is focused and effective. If there is toxicity in the body or stronger metabolic effects are desired, an NIR session may be the better choice. An NIR session is a more holistic solution to wellness because it can provide skin rejuvenating benefits (like those of Red Light LED), but it can also help you burn calories, release toxins, increase blood flow, ease pain and put you in a state of utter relaxation. Therefore, Red and NIR combined LED PBM will be one the best choices of all kinds of PBM.
