What is photobiomodulation?
Photobiomodulation is the use of red and near-infrared light directed at the skin. Red light is visible; near-infrared light is outside the visible spectrum. A light-panel session is different from an infrared sauna, which is designed to heat the body.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to be an existing patient?
No. You can schedule a standalone red light session without a new-patient consultation. Please tell us about any health concerns or light-sensitive medications before your session.
How long is a session, and what does it cost?
CVWI sessions are 20 minutes. The price is $40 on its own, $250 for ten prepaid sessions ($25 each), or $20 as an add-on to another service. Ask the front desk to include red light when arranging your appointment.
What should I wear?
Wear clothing that allows access to the area receiving light. PlatinumLED recommends exposing bare skin so clothing does not obstruct the light.
Will the light feel hot?
You may feel warmth. The panels deliver light rather than the sustained heating used in a sauna. Let us know if you feel uncomfortable.
What about eye protection?
Avoid looking directly at the LEDs. Follow the eye-protection instructions provided for your session, and mention any eye condition beforehand.
How often should I come?
PlatinumLED suggests regular use, often three to five times weekly, starting conservatively. The appropriate frequency depends on your goals and tolerance; this is not a promise of results.
Who should check with a clinician first?
Ask your clinician before use if you take light-sensitizing medication, have a photosensitivity disorder, are pregnant, have a concerning skin lesion or active cancer in the treatment area, or have an eye condition. Mention any implanted medical device and any history of seizures, especially before pulsed light. This is not an exhaustive screening list.
Is a longer exposure better?
More light is not necessarily better. Exposure depends on the device, distance and area; a 20-minute appointment is not a recommendation to use every device for 20 minutes per area.
These general FAQs draw on the PlatinumLED Help Center and its guidance on precautions. Session prices and availability are specific to CVWI.
