This revolutionary device combines low level light therapy and infrared therapy using light emitting diodes (LEDs). Low-level light therapy is used for its healing and anti-inflammatory properties. The specific wavelength of the low-level LEDs produced by POLY targets the cells in our bodies to produce more energy and speed up the healing process by reducing local inflammation for conditions such as neuropathy, tendonitis, arthritis and bursitis. POLY can simultaneously produce infrared light that penetrates deep into the tissues to create a conductive heat. This conductive heat creates a higher energy state in the cells and, as a result, healthy cells work harder, damaged cells recover faster, and more cells are recruited for a given task. 

How do at-home devices compare to this?

Unfortunately, as you would expect, at-home devices are not as powerful as this medical-grade unit. On the other hand, devices designed for at-home use contain only a few dozen LEDs, which are also less powerful than this machine. As you would imagine, most of the reports of efficacy are established using dermatologist-grade LED devices. The LED system is designed for use by professionals and all operators are trained by the manufacturers, to ensure the highest quality treatments.  

 
Yes. While non-ablative lasers and LED photo therapy are both very popular skin rejuvenation methods, only LED light therapy has been further developed for use in the home. This is because LED light therapy repairs sun damage and increases collagen and elastin production with less potential side effects than lasers. In fact, while lasers are contraindicated in many patients with darker skin tones due to potential irregularities in pigmentation and scarring, LED light therapy is generally considered safe in such patients. POLY is FDA approved.
