Abstract

Aim. Summarize and analyze publications on the cosmetic correction of age-related changes in facial skin using color light therapy.
Methods. Review of publications in domestic and foreign press for the period from 1991 to 2020 with a selection of articles focused on original articles published in peer-reviewed journals based on the results of the use of visible optical radiation in the cosmetic correction of age-related changes in facial skin in randomized conditions with control groups.
Results. The analyzed works mainly use visible radiation (yellow-orange or red light) with a wavelength of 590-650 nm or its combination with near-infrared radiation in the wavelength range from 830 to 890 nm. Regenerative processes in fading skin of the face are effectively triggered with the help of color light therapy through a complex of photobiological reactions implemented in tissues at the molecular and cellular levels.
Conclusion. The results of the reviewed studies show that color light therapy with different wavelengths in the optical range is an effective, safe, well-tolerated and painless method of aesthetic correction of facial skin and can be recommended both as monotherapy and as part of complex treatment.
