Although red light therapy might seem like a concept from the future, it is based on scientific principles, and its advantages are clear. This therapy, utilized in dermatology clinics, wellness spas, and now available at Urban Calm Santa Fe, is rapidly becoming the preferred choice for those seeking a natural enhancement of their skin’s appearance.
So what is it exactly? Red light therapy (RLT) involves the application of low-wavelength red and near-infrared light to the skin. These wavelengths penetrate deep into the skin’s layers, stimulating cellular activity. The result? More collagen production, improved circulation, faster healing, and a youthful glow.
At Urban Calm, we proudly use the FDA-cleared Genesis Z device for our red light facial therapy. It’s designed to treat:
Fine Lines & Wrinkles
Redness & Inflammation
Hyperpigmentation & Acne Marks
Skin Laxity & Uneven Tone
What makes red light therapy so popular is its versatility and safety. It’s suitable for all skin types, requires zero downtime, and can be performed during your lunch break. Whether you're targeting signs of aging, improving post-sun exposure skin, or simply maintaining your healthy complexion, this treatment offers consistent and visible results.
One of our clients described it as, “a facial that feels like meditation but works like magic.” And we couldn’t agree more. The Genesis Z uses specific red and near-infrared light frequencies to energize skin cells—essentially giving your skin the fuel it needs to repair itself.
Red light therapy can be a standalone treatment or added to any of our facials for amplified benefits. Pair it with our Eclipse anti-aging serums or follow up with a hydration mask for best results.
