Meet the scientifically-backed benefits of consistently using the clinical-grade red & near-infrared light technology (RLT) found in Friend-RL devices...
Stronger & Fuller Hair
Red/NIR light stimulates follicles and improves blood flow to the scalp. A 24-week study showed a 39% increase in hair density using NIR light (Lasers in Medical Science, 2022).
Natural Pain Relief
Studies show RLT reduces joint pain and inflammation by up to 70% in arthritis sufferers using NIR light (Clinical Bioenergetics, 2023).
Faster Recovery
RLT improves circulation and speeds muscle and tissue healing. A clinical trial showed 42% faster muscle recovery in athletes using RLT (Journal of Strength & Conditioning Research, 2023).
Healthier Skin
RLT boosts collagen and reduces inflammation—perfect for acne, ageing, and skin issues. One study showed a 54% collagen increase after 12 weeks of red light use (Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2025).
Deeper & Longer Sleep
Red light helps regulate melatonin and soothe the nervous system. Insomnia sufferers had a 67% improvement in sleep quality after nightly RLT sessions (Sleep Medicine Reviews, 2022).
Fertility & Hormonal Health
RLT improves blood flow and hormone regulation in men & women. In women with infertility, 22.3% achieved pregnancy with 830nm light, and 50% of those resulted in live births (Ohshiro et al., 2014).
Heightened Mood
RLT leads to the release of melanopsin which helps lift mood. Just 4 weeks of use led to a 60% drop in depression and 70% drop in anxiety (Brain Sciences, 2023).
Increased Metabolism
RLT activates mitochondria in fat cells, aiding fat breakdown. Participants lost 1.4 cm from waistlines after 6 weeks of use (Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, 2022).
Products You Can Trust
We strive for transparency in everything we do, and stand by the quality of our products. Unfortunately, many other light therapy companies don’t hold the same values, relying on marketing gimmicks and dishonest information.
