Red Light Therapy

Has anyone had any experience with Red Light Therapy? I was told that it helps with collagen production to tighten and firm skin, I'm wondering if it really works or if anyone has had any experience with it before I go dropping money on it.

    I do the "red bed" at my spa as part of my circuit of services (also including hydrotherapy, tanning, and message chair with facial). I can tell you that it has helped with my stretch marks tremendously. It isn't the most relaxing part of my spa experience (the "red bed" is a stand-up bed, so it sucks to stand there for 15 minutes), but I am glad that I am doing it since it is very beneficial.

    Good luck!

    Desert Sun in Western Washington, many tanning salons and fitness places has it. I absolutely love it, I feel better knowing that this has been shown to help with the scars and do a little shrinking.
