Does red light and infrared light help or hurt facial fat?

February 10, 2021
Asked By:PATIENT.INFO in Beverly Hills, California

I have an expensive, powerful infrared light device and I will be buying an equally powerful red light device that I want to use daily. I am getting a fat transfer to the face and I am worried that the powerful infrared lights will cause the fat transfer to metabolize as there have been studied showing infrared lights help get rid of stubborn fat. Thank your help!
