FAQ
On Red Light Therapy
Your red light session will depend on how close you are to the unit. If you are within 6" of the red light, we recommend a 15-20 minute session per treatment area. If you are 12"+ from the red light, we recommend a 20-30 minute session per treatment area. You can't really overdo it, but sessions longer than noted above may not bring you additional benefits.
Unlike most competitors' lights that have a fixed angle lens, Clearlight's exclusive Variable Optic Lenses provide maximum skin coverage and the most benefits in the shortest time.
No, special eye protection is not necessary. Clearlight Red Light Therapy can be used without eye protection, and standard sunglasses provide adequate protection. We include optional goggles with our products for added comfort during the adjustment period.
There are no known side effects to red light therapy when used as directed.
