Cutaneous effects of photobiomodulation with 1072 nm light.
Archives of Dermatological Research 2022 December 11
Photobiomodulation, also known as low-level light therapy, has gained popularity in treating a variety of dermatologic and non-dermatologic conditions. The near-infrared (NIR) portion ranging from 700 to 1440 nm has a broad spectrum but most current research focuses on relatively shorter wavelengths. To date, clinical research regarding the application of 1072 NIR is limited to treatments for infections and photorejuvenation treatment in females. However, 1072 NIR light therapy may benefit male patients. This theoretical application is based on the biological properties of this subgroup having increased cutaneous density and thickness and the physical properties of 1072 NIR allowing it to penetrate increased depth. 1072 NIR can reach more cells throughout the epidermis and dermis compared to other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum traditionally used in phototherapy to provide unique and targeted benefits. 1072 NIR light-emitting diodes are commercially available and therefore hold tremendous potential to become accessible, affordable treatment options. Given the increased demand and market size for aesthetics for men that remains untapped, there is opportunity for future research to elucidate the potential for this wavelength as a safe and effective treatment.
