BIOPTRON
is clinically proven & certified for the medical treatment of
dermatological disorders and skin problems in adults and children.
In particular, the light therapy penetrates deep into the skin with
equal doses of blue and red light, targeting and destroying bacteria
that cause acne flareups. BIOPTRON has been reported to be
beneficial in the improvement of residual scarring remaining as
a result of various skin conditions, (e.g. extensive acne vulgaris).
When
the BIOPTRON medical device is held over the skin surface, energy
from the emitted light penetrates the skin and underlying tissues.
This produces a biological response, called photo-biostimulation,
causing various beneficial reactions which can be used to treat:
