Weber laser therapy
Weber laser therapy is based on the transmission of a light beam into the blood or tissues with controlled intensity. The photons are absorbed by mitochondria in the cells, which convert nutrients and oxygen into energy.
How it works
Light rays have different colors, blue, green, red and each stimulates certain cellular processes. Blue light decreases inflammation in the body, has antibacterial, antiviral and antitumor effects. Green light increases oxygen supply, cellular energy levels. And the red light stimulates motility, cytokine production, oxygenation.
Therapy can be administered intravenously and intra-articularly.
Benefits
At the cellular level, studies show that:
- An increase in ATP levels of more than 30% is obtained. ATP is the main energy source for most cell functions.
- It increases the ability of cells to fight infection and accelerates the healing process. It produces reactive oxygen species, which contain oxygen molecules that play a positive role in cell repair and healing.
- It releases nitric oxide, a potent vasodilator, which has a role in improving blood circulation, decreasing inflammation and increasing oxygenation and the number of immune system cells within the tissues.
Dermatologically, according to clinical studies, Weber laser treatment:
- Stimulates, heals and restores the skin.
- Reduces inflammation, increases cell viability.
- In hyperpigmented lesions, it may reduce pigmentation.
- It has application in: skin rejuvenation, acne, photoprotection, viral lesions, depigmentation, hypertrophic or keloid scars, burns, psoriasis.
Contraindications
As with other treatments, Weber laser therapy is not recommended during pregnancy, breastfeeding, cancer, lupus.
