Light That Loves You Back

There's something about the way light can make you feel. The warmth against your skin. The quiet that settles in when the room is dim and everything slows down for a few minutes. At Sculpt Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery in Fairfax, VA, red light therapy brings that calm to your skin, body, and whole sense of self.

This isn’t a laser or a peel. It’s soft, restorative light. The kind that works with you, not on you. Sometimes called low-level light therapy, this treatment uses gentle red and near-infrared light to improve skin health, encourage hair growth, and calm inflammation from the inside out. No pain. No downtime. Just balance.

In McLean, we offer facial red light therapy—focused, delicate, and perfect for skin rejuvenation and collagen production. In Fairfax, our full-body Red Light Therapy Mat wraps you in light from head to toe, easing soreness, restoring circulation, and giving your body space to recharge.

It’s more than self-care. It’s repair. Photodynamic therapy that soothes as much as it improves.

What Red Light Therapy Does

Red light therapy works on the smallest level: inside your cells. Soft energy from LED light and low-power laser therapy reaches beneath the skin's surface, sparking new collagen, increasing blood flow, and helping your body create the energy it needs to heal.

It’s simple science, delivered beautifully. Over time, the changes feel unmistakable: smoother texture, softer lines, a glow that looks more like health than highlight. Even hair follicles respond, producing thicker, stronger strands.

Red Light Therapy Benefits

It feels gentle. Almost meditative. You close your eyes and feel the warmth settle in, like sun through glass. That light moves deeper, telling your cells to wake up and get to work.

The beauty of red light therapy isn’t just what it does for your skin—it’s what it gives back to your body.

Patients notice:

  • Softer fine lines and smoother texture
  • Brighter, more even skin tone
  • Healthier collagen production and firmness
  • Thicker, stronger hair growth
  • Relief from chronic pain or inflammation
  • Calm, rested energy afterward

No heat. No irritation. Just light that teaches your skin to heal itself again.

What Areas Can Be Treated

In McLean, red light therapy is an elegant facial treatment for anyone craving luminosity without downtime. It pairs beautifully with chemical peels, facials, or dermal fillers, helping the skin recover and stay radiant.

In Fairfax, our Red Light Therapy Mat offers something deeper. It treats the entire body by encouraging blood flow, easing stiffness, supporting tissue repair, and improving recovery after body sculpting or workouts through cell growth. It’s as much about balance as beauty.

Red Light Therapy Candidates

Most people are great candidates for red light therapy. It’s noninvasive, generally safe, and gentle enough for all skin types. If you’re dealing with aging skin, inflammation, or even hair loss, it can help.

We’ll always talk through your health conditions and skincare history first, especially if you have light sensitivity or a history of skin cancer, to make sure it’s the right fit.

What Can Be Addressed by Red Light Therapy

Red light therapy has become a quiet hero in both wellness and aesthetics. Backed by clinical trials and published studies, including research from the Cleveland Clinic, it’s been shown to improve:

  • Fine lines and early aging skin
  • Hair thinning and scalp health conditions
  • Inflammation and redness
  • Wound healing, tissue repair, and even chronic pain
  • Muscle recovery and post-workout soreness

For many, red light is also a self-care ritual. You'll leave feeling refreshed after having a few moments of peace in the chaos of our busy world.

Consultation and Preparation

Your red light therapy consultation will be easy. We’ll talk about your skin, your health, and how light therapy might fit into your lifestyle. You’ll leave with a treatment plan that is realistic and personal.

There’s no prep. Just come with clean skin and a few quiet minutes to yourself.

Your Red Light Therapy Treatment

In McLean, you’ll recline while a soft red light therapy mask or LED light device glows above your face. It feels warm, not too hot. Most people say it’s their favorite part of the week.

In Fairfax, you’ll rest on our full-body Red Light Mat, surrounded by near-infrared light and low-level laser therapy that works on every muscle and cell. Ten to thirty minutes of stillness. Your body will be grateful for the break.

Aftercare

There isn’t any. No redness. No irritation. Just a soft, healthy glow. You can go straight to work, grab coffee, or meet a friend.

Keep your skin hydrated and skip tanning beds for a few days. That’s all the maintenance you’ll need.

Results and Recovery

Most people see a difference after a handful of sessions. Skin that feels smoother, tone that looks brighter, and hair thickness that starts at the roots. Over time, collagen builds and inflammation calms at the cellular level. Wrinkle reduction, hair growth, and skin rejuvenation all at once. The results compound.

Patients who use the Fairfax full-body mat often notice that it tends to relieve pain. They experience less soreness, deeper sleep, and more energy throughout the day. It’s subtle, but it’s steady.

How Much Does Red Light Therapy Cost?

Pricing varies depending on where and how you receive treatment. We offer individual sessions and packages for both the facial red light therapy treatment in McLean and the full-body experience in Fairfax. During your consultation, we’ll talk through costs, timing, and how to combine it with other noninvasive treatments for the best results.
