Is red light therapy beneficial for healing after Halo treatment?

Question

I have a Joov photobiomodulation light (full body red light panel). Would this be beneficial for healing after my Halo treatment? If so, should I start same day or the day after? (My provider didn't know the answer to this question). Thanks!

Hi and thanks for your question!
Red light therapy is absorbed at deep skin layers, helping to increase blood flow, stimulate collagen and fibroblast production, and decrease inflammation. There is no specific medical information on use of red light therapy after a Halo laser. 
However it would be prudent to wait about a week after a Halo to resume red light therapy. Believe it or not, you want the healing and inflammatory response that Halo creates in order to get many of the benefits. I would not want to decreased that response in the first week after Halo.
Hope this helps!
