Why Dr. Espinoza of La Chele Recommends Red Light Therapy

In the world of aesthetic medicine, staying on the cutting edge of innovation means combining treatments that deliver optimal, natural-looking results—while also supporting long-term skin health. At La Chelé Medical Aesthetics , a premier aesthetic clinic founded by Dr. Lisa Espinoza , the fusion of injectables and red light therapy has become a trusted strategy for both immediate results and lasting skin rejuvenation.

Injectables like neuromodulators and dermal fillers are highly effective in treating facial volume loss, smoothing dynamic wrinkles, and improving overall facial harmony. But as Dr. Espinoza notes, the best outcomes occur when skin health is addressed alongside structural concerns. "Injectables treat structure, but healthy skin is essential for a balanced result," she explains. This is where red light therapy steps in.

Why Red Light Therapy Works So Well with Injectables

Red light therapy —also known as low-level light therapy (LLLT) —uses wavelengths of red and near-infrared light to penetrate the skin, energizing cells and stimulating natural healing processes. This non-invasive, clinically backed treatment supports skin at the cellular level, promoting:

  • Increased collagen production

  • Improved circulation and oxygen delivery

  • Reduction in inflammation and redness

  • Faster healing post-procedure

These effects not only help prepare the skin for injectables, but they also enhance and prolong the results.

"We’ve found that pairing injectables with red light therapy leads to better overall outcomes," says Dr. Espinoza. "Patients see firmer skin, a smoother texture, and a natural radiance that complements the work we do with fillers and neuromodulators."

Post-Procedure Healing with Red Light Therapy

After treatments like fillers or microneedling, the skin may feel sensitive or inflamed. Red light therapy helps reduce these side effects by accelerating the healing process and soothing the skin. At La Chelé, Dr. Espinoza frequently recommends red or near-infrared light therapy in the days following procedures to:

  • Calm irritation

  • Reduce swelling or redness

  • Minimize downtime

  • Support optimal results

Patients who follow this post-treatment protocol often report feeling more comfortable and returning to daily life more quickly.

The Glotech™ Mask Pro: An At-Home Game-Changer

While in-clinic light therapy treatments are highly effective, maintaining those results at home has historically been a challenge. That’s why Dr. Espinoza and the La Chelé team are enthusiastic about the Glotech™ Mask Pro —an FDA-cleared, medical-grade red light therapy mask designed for home use.

"The Glotech™ Mask Pro delivers professional-level results in a home setting. It’s thoughtfully designed, incredibly comfortable to wear, and allows patients to stay consistent with their skin health routines between visits," says Dr. Espinoza.

With clinical-strength wavelengths , the Glotech™ Mask Pro targets:

  • Collagen loss

  • Inflammation

  • Skin dullness and uneven tone

Patients at La Chelé who integrate the Glotech™ Mask Pro into their skincare routine often notice improved skin texture , firmness , and an overall healthier glow —particularly when used consistently.

Complementary Tools for a Holistic Approach

While injectables remain a powerful tool for facial sculpting and rejuvenation, La Chelé promotes a multimodal approach to aesthetics. In addition to BBL , Halo laser , and exosome therapies , red light therapy stands out as a versatile, non-invasive add-on that boosts the effectiveness of nearly any procedure.

Confidence Through Consistency

One of the reasons Dr. Espinoza recommends the Glotech™ Mask Pro is because it puts consistency back into the hands of the patient. While some treatments require clinic time or recovery periods, red light therapy is gentle enough for daily use —no needles, no downtime.

"LED therapy offers such a return on investment—it’s easy to use, calming, and helps patients feel empowered in their skincare routines," she says. For patients who travel or live busy lifestyles, the mask fits in seamlessly.

And the benefits don’t stop at beauty. Red light therapy also supports the skin barrier , improves hydration, and helps reduce acne—all without irritating or stripping the skin.

A Shared Commitment to Science and Innovation

La Chelé and LED Esthetics are aligned in their mission to bring scientifically-backed, effective, and empowering treatments to patients. With an emphasis on education, personalized care, and safe results, both brands believe that sustainable beauty starts with knowledge and consistency .

For patients looking to extend the results of their injectable treatments—or simply enhance their natural skin—red light therapy offers a gentle, powerful way to do so.

"It’s one of the most underrated tools in our field," says Dr. Espinoza. "Red light therapy doesn’t just treat—it supports and strengthens. When combined with injectables, it brings out the very best in a patient’s skin."
