Using an LED light therapy mask can be a valuable addition to your skincare routine and overall well-being. Light therapy, also known as photobiomodulation (PBM), utilizes specific wavelengths of light to penetrate the skin and stimulate cellular repair and regeneration.
Red light therapy has been shown to promote collagen production, which can improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This can result in a more youthful and radiant complexion over time.
Additionally, red light therapy has anti-inflammatory properties, making it effective in reducing redness, swelling, and irritation associated with conditions like acne, rosacea, and eczema. It can also help in accelerating the healing process of wounds and scars.
Blue light attacks Acne and Spots, killing bacteria, viruses, fungi on the skin. Coupled with red light and NIR, your skin will be clearer, healthier, and more vibrant IN 2 WEEKS.
Yellow light helps with skin tone, reducing the effects of Melasma, and helps treat other skin ailments.
NIR (Near Infrared) light helps rejuvenate skin, rebuilding it from the foundation up helping deep in your skin to produce collagen, to help repair and rebuild. Save thousands on botox treatments, use NIR daily to help keep aging at bay.
The products have passed ISO 13485 quality management system certification and comply with CE Class IIa medical device standards.
* Rated #1 on TrustPilot against leading competitors. A JANUARY 2025 study of 50 participants - Kivo was the top recommended brand for red light therapy panels and red light therapy masks in Vancouver BC.

How Long Should I Do Light Therapy For?
How Long Should I Do Light Therapy For? If you recently got a light therapy panel, mask, or flashlight - or if you are looking into getting one for skin care or muscle recovery - you probably have one big question on your mind: How long should each session actually last? It is easy to think that sitting in front of a light for an hour will give you four times the benefits of a 15-minute session. Light therapy does not work that way. Your cells have a sweet spot for how much light energy they can take in at one time. Here is a straightforward guide to help you set the right timers for your sessions based on the exact wavelengths used in Kivo Light Therapy devices. The Core Rule: Why More Light Is Not Always Better Light therapy works through a scientific rule called the biphasic dose response. That sounds technical, but the idea is simple: Too little light: Your cells do not get enough energy to trigger changes. The right amount of light: Your cells get energized, speeding up repair and collagen production. Too much light: Your cells get full, lose their boost, and temporarily stop responding. Think of it like charging a smartphone. Once your battery hits 100%, leaving it on the charger for another five hours will not give you extra battery life. Keeping your sessions within the recommended time window gives you the best results without wasting time. Session Times by Light Wavelength & Goal Different light wavelengths reach different depths in your tissue. Here is how long you should run each specific light mode. 1. Blue Light Therapy (480nm Wavelength) What it targets: Skin surface, acne-causing bacteria, and oil balance. Ideal session length: 3 to 5 minutes per area (up to 10 minutes maximum for a full face treatment). Distance from skin: 3 to 6 inches (10 to 15 cm). Best time of day: Morning or early afternoon (before 1-2 pm). Blue light is fantastic for clearing up surface spots and keeping skin clean. Because blue light mimics bright daylight, it tells your brain that it is time to wake up. Using blue light late in the evening can mess with your body clock and make it harder to fall asleep at night. If you are using a portable option like the Kivo Pro Flashlight on small spots, 5 minutes per spot is plenty. If you are using a multi-light panel like the Kivo ONE Pro Panel, set the timer for 10 minutes on your face. 2. Red Light Therapy (630nm and 660nm Wavelengths) What it targets: Skin health, collagen production, reducing redness, and soothing surface inflammation. Ideal session length: Face treatments: 10 minutes. Body areas (shoulders, arms, back): 10 to 15 minutes. Distance from skin: 3 to 6 inches (10 to 15 cm). Best time of day: Any time before 6 pm. Red light reaches the outer layers of your skin to help rebuild collagen and keep your skin tone balanced. A quick 10-minute session on your face with a device like the Kivo Elite Face Mask or a panel from the Kivo ONE Series is enough to give your skin cells a solid energy bump. 3. Near-Infrared Light Therapy (810nm, 830nm, 850nm, and 940nm Wavelengths) What it targets: Deeper muscle tissue, joints, tendons, and post-workout recovery. Ideal session length: 10 to 15 minutes per target area. Distance from skin: 3 to 6 inches (10 to 15 cm). Best time of day: Before 6 pm. Near-infrared (NIR) light is invisible to the human eye, but it travels deeper into your body than red or blue light. It reaches sored muscles and stiff joints to lower soreness after workouts or sports. Because NIR light goes deeper, your tissue benefits from a slightly longer session of 10 to 15 minutes per zone. Larger setups like the Kivo THREE Series or the full-body Kivo TWELVE Series allow you to cover larger areas of your body in one single 10 to 15 minute run. 4. Scalp Care (660nm Red and 850nm Near-Infrared) What it targets: Scalp circulation and hair follicle health. Ideal session length: 10 minutes per session. Frequency: 3 to 4 times per week. For hair and scalp health, consistency matters more than long individual sessions. A dedicated device like the Kivo LED Light Therapy Cap uses dual-chip LEDs to deliver red and near-infrared light right to the hair roots in an easy 10-minute automated routine. Step-by-Step Instructions for Your Light Routine To get clean, predictable results every time, follow these steps during your regular sessions: Step 1: Clean your skin. Wash off makeup, sunscreen, or heavy lotions before starting. Clean, bare skin lets the light penetrate without reflections. Step 2: Put on eye protection. Put on dark protective goggles (like the eye guards included with Kivo panels) when treating your face or working near your eyes. Step 3: Check your distance. Position yourself 3 to 6 inches (10 to 15 cm) away from the panel or device. Step 4: Select your light mode. Use Blue Light in the morning for acne or surface skin care. Use Red + Near-Infrared Light for general skin glow, joint relief, or muscle recovery. Step 5: Set your timer. Keep face treatments between 3 and 5 minutes. Keep muscle or joint treatments between 10 and 15 minutes. Step 6: Finish with your standard skin routine. Apply your usual moisturizer or serum after your session is finished. Quick Reference Cheatsheet Light Color / Type Target Wavelengths Recommended Time Target Area Best Time of Day Blue Light 480nm 3 - 5 minutes Facial skin, spots, breakouts Morning to 2:00 PM Red Light 630nm, 660nm 5 - 10 minutes Face, chest, skin tone Morning or afternoon (before 6:00 PM) Near-Infrared (NIR) 810nm, 830nm, 850nm, 940nm 10 - 15 minutes Muscles, joints, deep repair Before 6:00 PM Scalp Care 660nm + 850nm 10 minutes Scalp and hair roots Any time during the day Common Mistakes to Watch Out For Sitting too close or too far: Sitting 2 feet away makes the light too weak to be effective. Pressing up against a high-power panel can make the area uncomfortably warm. Stick to the 3-to-6 inch range. Using blue light at night: Blue light tricks your brain into thinking it is noon. Stick to morning use for blue light so your evening sleep signals stay normal. Overdoing it out of impatience: Doing three 20-minute sessions in one day will not speed up your skin progress. Stick to 3 to 5 regular sessions per week. Skipping eye protection: Light panels are very bright. Always use protective goggles during facial treatments. Simple Summary for Getting Started Keep face treatments between 5 and 10 minutes. Keep body and muscle treatments between 15 and 20 minutes. Stay 3 to 6 inches away from your panel during treatment. Repeat your routine 3 to 5 days a week. Focus on consistency over duration... short regular sessions beat long random ones every time!

Red and Near-Infrared to help Nerve Regeneration
Nerve damage is one of the most challenging conditions to treat. Whether caused by injury, surgery, diabetes, or chronic illnesses, damage to peripheral nerves often leads to pain, numbness, tingling, and impaired function. Unlike skin or muscle, nerve tissue regenerates very slowly, and in some cases, healing is incomplete. Traditional treatments often focus on managing symptoms rather than repairing the underlying damage. In recent years, however, there has been growing interest in a non-invasive approach that may support the body’s ability to repair nerve tissue: red and near-infrared (NIR) light therapy, also known as photobiomodulation (PBM). Studies are beginning to show that PBM can stimulate cellular repair processes, improve circulation, and enhance recovery in nerve-related conditions. So, how does this work — and what does the science say? How Red and Near-Infrared Light Affect Nerve Cells Both red light (around 630–660 nm) and near-infrared light (around 810–850 nm) penetrate tissues and are absorbed by mitochondria, the “powerhouses” of cells. Specifically, they target an enzyme called cytochrome c oxidase, which is part of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. When stimulated by these wavelengths, mitochondria produce more ATP (adenosine triphosphate) — the energy currency of the cell (NIH). In nerve cells, this extra energy allows for: Axonal repair: Damaged axons (the long projections of neurons) can regrow when energy demands are met. Myelin regeneration: Light therapy may support the repair of myelin, the protective sheath around nerves that is critical for fast and accurate signal transmission. Protein synthesis: Increased ATP fuels the creation of structural proteins needed for nerve repair. In short, light therapy helps “recharge” injured nerves so they can carry out the demanding process of repair. Reducing Oxidative Stress and Inflammation Nerve injury often creates an environment of oxidative stress, where excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) damage cellular components. Photobiomodulation helps normalize ROS levels by making mitochondria more efficient. This not only protects neurons but also reduces secondary damage that can occur after the initial injury. In addition, light therapy reduces inflammatory cytokines — signalling proteins that can prolong pain and impair healing. By calming the inflammatory response, PBM creates a more favorable environment for regeneration. Research in the Journal of Neurotrauma found that NIR therapy not only reduced oxidative stress but also improved functional recovery after nerve injury (PubMed). Stimulating Neurotrophic Factors One of the most promising findings is that red and NIR light increase levels of neurotrophic factors. These are proteins that guide nerve growth, survival, and function. Among the most important are: Nerve Growth Factor (NGF): Promotes survival and growth of sensory and sympathetic neurons. Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF): Supports synaptic plasticity, learning, and repair. A study published in Neuroscience Letters found that PBM increased expression of BDNF and NGF in animal models, leading to enhanced axon regeneration and functional recovery (NIH). This means that light therapy doesn’t just provide energy; it also helps activate the genetic and molecular programs necessary for nerves to rebuild themselves. Improving Circulation and Nutrient Delivery Nerves, especially peripheral nerves, have limited blood supply compared to other tissues. Poor circulation can slow healing and leave damaged nerves starved of oxygen and nutrients. Near-infrared light penetrates deeper than red light and stimulates nitric oxide release, which relaxes blood vessels and improves microcirculation. A study in Lasers in Surgery and Medicine demonstrated that animals treated with NIR after nerve injury had faster functional recovery and improved nerve conduction velocity compared to controls (PubMed). Improved blood flow is key not only for repair but also for clearing out metabolic waste products that accumulate in injured tissues. Evidence from Clinical and Preclinical Studies While much of the research has been done in animal models, the results are encouraging - and early human studies are beginning to confirm the benefits. Peripheral nerve injury: Animal studies show that PBM accelerates axonal regrowth and improves recovery of motor and sensory function. Carpal tunnel syndrome: Clinical trials using NIR light have reported reductions in pain and improvements in grip strength and nerve conduction (PubMed). Diabetic neuropathy: Studies suggest that PBM reduces pain and numbness while improving quality of life for patients with diabetic nerve damage. Post-surgical nerve recovery: Patients treated with red/NIR light after surgery have shown reduced pain, less inflammation, and better long-term functional outcomes. Although more large-scale clinical trials are needed, the existing data strongly suggest that photobiomodulation is a safe and effective adjunct therapy for nerve regeneration. What Patients Report Beyond the lab, many people using red and near-infrared therapy devices report improvements such as: Reduced tingling and numbness Decreased nerve pain Improved muscle activation in affected areas Better coordination and grip strength While individual results vary, these reports align with the physiological mechanisms demonstrated in research. Suggested Protocol for Nerve Regeneration (Using the Kivo Elite Panel) If you are considering red and NIR light therapy at home, consistency is key. Nerve healing is slow, and results are usually seen over weeks to months. A commonly recommended protocol is: Wavelength: Red + Near-Infrared Brightness: High (Level 5 on Kivo Elite Panel) Pulse: 40 Hz (associated with neurological repair and brain wave entrainment) Duration: 15–20 minutes per affected area Frequency: 5–7 times per week Treatment Length: At least 8–12 weeks, longer for chronic conditions This can be used alongside conventional treatments such as physical therapy, medications, and lifestyle interventions. Always consult a healthcare provider before starting new therapies, especially if you have a medical condition.

Traditional medicine often offers limited solutions beyond pain relief. Light therapy represents a shift — instead of masking symptoms, it seeks to help the body heal itself. As the research base expands, red and near-infrared therapy may become a standard part of nerve rehabilitation protocols, both in clinics and at home. Devices like the Kivo Elite Panel make it possible to access this promising therapy safely and consistently. For those dealing with nerve injuries, neuropathy, or post-surgical recovery, photobiomodulation offers real hope: faster healing, less pain, and a better chance of regaining function.
