This review discusses the mechanisms, scientific support, and FDA clearance of photobiomodulation mask devices but reports no new research findings.

This review concluded that LED-based photobiomodulation is generally safe and effective for certain dermatologic conditions, though consumer devices often show less efficacy compared to professional systems.

In this study, a novel portable LED device significantly accelerated wound healing in rats, with faster wound closure, increased collagen deposition, and more microvessels at a higher radiation intensity, suggesting its potential for innovative wound management.

This study evaluated a novel hand-held low-level light therapy device for treating mild-to-moderate acne, finding it significantly reduced inflammatory lesions and moderate acne severity without severe adverse reactions, while also reducing Cutibacterium acnes viability in vitro.

This review examines the FDA's 510(k) approval process for low-level laser therapy devices used in treating androgenetic alopecia and reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers developed a wearable red and blue LED patch and a sprayable fibrin gel to treat infected wounds at home, demonstrating effective infection control and enhanced wound healing in diabetic mice and minipigs.

The study discusses using red light therapy for hair regrowth, noting red light alone may aid non-inflammatory hair loss, while infrared-red light combination is necessary for conditions like alopecia areata.

This study concluded that combining the Shumin treatment instrument with oral doxycycline provides better clinical outcomes for rosacea than combining red light therapy with doxycycline, while both regimens improved quality-of-life scores and reduced Demodex counts.

This review discusses the effectiveness of non-thermal, non-ablative devices like light-emitting diodes in treating various skin and hair conditions but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that low-level laser therapy significantly increased hair growth in women with androgenic alopecia, achieving a 37% greater increase in hair counts compared to placebo.

This study found that red OLED irradiation can significantly promote hair regrowth in mice, increasing hair length by 1.5 times and hair regrowth area by over 3 times after 20 days of treatment.

This review concluded that near-infrared and red light photobiomodulation shows potential for certain ocular conditions like age-related macular degeneration and dry eye disease, but clinical evidence is still mixed and insufficient to establish it as a standard therapy.

This review discusses the application of low-level light therapy for hair loss treatment, particularly androgenetic alopecia, and reports no new clinical results; the authors suggest consideration of light source characteristics and potential pros and cons.

Low-level laser therapy is a safe and effective treatment for hair loss.

This review of low-level laser therapy for patterned hair loss found that red-spectrum light may be effective for hair growth, but larger case-controlled studies are needed to further support this conclusion.

This study presented a new wearable textile-based device with near-infrared OLEDs that significantly reduced cell aging markers and improved cell migration in vitro, suggesting it as a promising, non-invasive phototherapy option for hair follicle treatment and hair-loss management.

This study introduced a new laser-only method called EKA for acne treatment, which is reported to be safe, painless, and heat-free, showing promising results for both acne and scar repair in initial sessions without combining with LED light.

This chapter discusses procedural therapies like platelet-rich plasma and low-level light therapy for androgenetic alopecia, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review summarizes late-breaking abstracts from the American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery, 2018, and reports no new clinical findings.

This article reviews the growing trend of at-home laser and light devices for treating conditions like acne, hair removal, and psoriasis, emphasizing their popularity and the need for cautious use but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that 655-nm red light with LED enhanced hair shaft elongation and reduced catagen transition in human hair follicles in vitro by activating the Wnt/ß-catenin signaling pathway.

This study found that isolated red light may serve as an alternative for photo-immunotherapy without additional photosensitizers, as it did not reduce keratinocyte differentiation markers or increase photo-oxidative damage, unlike treatment with IL-4 or UVA1/blue light.

This study found that combining red light therapy with oral beta-carotene significantly improved photoaging treatment outcomes compared to red light therapy alone, with Group A showing a 56.12% reduction in photoaging scores over 12 weeks versus 44.78% in Group B.

This review assessed evidence on laser therapies for alopecia areata, reporting that the 308-nm excimer laser showed hair regrowth in several studies, while more research is needed for other laser types.

This review evaluates photobiomodulation's diverse clinical uses in sports and medicine, reporting physiological modulation and potential therapeutic benefits, but emphasizes the importance of precise dosimetry for success.

In this study, low-level light therapy using a new helmet-type device significantly increased hair density and thickness in patients with androgenetic alopecia, showing no adverse events or side effects, suggesting it may be a safe and effective treatment option for both sexes.

This review discusses the modest efficacy of home-use laser and light devices for conditions like hair removal and acne, noting limited evidence and a lack of robust trials.

This study found that using a wearable low-level light therapy device for photodynamic therapy significantly reduced actinic keratosis lesions and improved quality of life in patients with AK of the scalp.

This review discusses home-use laser and light skin devices for various dermatological purposes and reports no new clinical findings; the authors highlight the need for dermatologists to evaluate these devices' clinical value.

This review discusses the potential of repeated low-level red-light therapy to inhibit myopia progression through metabolic effects, highlighting its molecular and cellular impact, but reports no new clinical results.
