Motykie Med Spa includes red light therapy in its wellness programme, offering low-level light therapy (LLLT) using red and near-infrared wavelengths. Red light therapy — also referred to as photobiomodulation — uses light in the 600–700 nm (red) and 800–1100 nm (near-infrared, NIR) spectrum that penetrates the skin and is absorbed by cytochrome c oxidase, a photoreceptor in the mitochondrial electron transport chain. This absorption is associated with increased mitochondrial ATP production, reduced reactive oxygen species, and modulation of cell signalling cascades that may support collagen synthesis, inflammation resolution, and tissue repair. At the skin level, red light therapy is associated with supporting fibroblast activity and may complement other collagen-stimulating treatments in the med spa's portfolio, such as Morpheus8 and microneedling. The NIR component penetrates more deeply into tissue, reaching superficial muscle and joint structures where it may support local circulation and recovery. Sessions at Motykie Med Spa run 15–30 minutes with no pain, no UV exposure, and no downtime — making the treatment a low-commitment addition to an aesthetic appointment or a standalone wellness session. Red light therapy may be combined with other treatments at the clinic's Sunset Blvd location. Pricing was not listed on the clinic's public pricing page and should be confirmed at booking. The treatment is available in the clinic's growing wellness category, which also includes infrared sauna and IV drips.
