This guide has been folded into our fuller, regularly updated coverage: Red Light Therapy UK 2026: Does the Skincare Trend Actually Work?.

Everything covered here – how red and near-infrared light work on skin, what the trials found, which wavelengths and irradiance figures to look for in a device, who should check with a GP first, and how long it takes to see results – now lives in that guide, alongside an FAQ. Please head over for the current version.
