What is collagen production?
Collagen production refers to the synthesis of collagen, a vital structural protein found in connective tissues throughout the body.
Red light exposure stimulates fibroblasts, the cells responsible for collagen synthesis, improving skin elasticity, scalp tissue quality, and wound healing.
Enhanced collagen production supports a healthier scalp environment, providing a stronger foundation for active hair follicles during growth phases after red light therapy treatments.
