Fluorescent light energy increases energy available for cell healing

Photobiomodulation (PBM) is a low-level form of light therapy that uses non-ionizing forms of light sources in the visible and near infrared spectrum.

How Photobiomodulation Works

phovia-lamp-icon
Positively influences electron transfer and proton transportation
cat dog horse
Increases mitochondrial ATP production
phovia-energy-icon
Increases the amount of energy available for the cell to heal1

Photobiomodulation was shown to stimulate
secretion of several growth factors including:1

  • Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)
  • Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF)
  • Fibroblast Growth Factors (FGFs)
  • Transforming Growth Factor Beta (TGF-β)
  • Collagen production

Light penetration into the skin is variable. For example, red light penetrates deeper than blue light. Skin also consists of a range of chromophores, which have scattering and absorption coefficients, which are highly wavelength dependent. This video shows how Phovia targets multiple layers simultaneously.
