When it comes to red light therapy, not all wavelengths are created equal. Two of the most researched and effective wavelengths in the field of photobiomodulation are 650nm and 808nm. At Ricial, we call this the "Golden Combo" – a powerful pairing that delivers profound benefits for your skin, pain relief, and overall performance.
What Is Red Light Therapy?
Red light therapy (RLT), also known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT), uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular function. When red and near-infrared (NIR) light penetrate the skin, they activate the mitochondria – the powerhouse of cells – to produce more ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the energy currency of the body. This leads to enhanced cell repair, reduced inflammation, and improved circulation.
Why 650nm and 808nm Matter
650nm (Red Light): This wavelength is ideal for superficial treatment, penetrating about 5-10mm into the skin. It stimulates collagen production, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, improves skin tone, and helps clear up acne and blemishes.
808nm (Near-Infrared Light): This wavelength penetrates much deeper – up to 50mm. It targets muscles, joints, and deeper tissues to reduce inflammation, relieve chronic pain, and accelerate healing.
Together, 650nm + 808nm deliver both cosmetic and therapeutic benefits, making them the go-to combination for users seeking a complete red light therapy solution.

The Science Behind the Glow
Numerous peer-reviewed studies support the efficacy of 650nm and 808nm wavelengths:
A study in Lasers in Surgery and Medicine showed that 808nm light significantly reduced chronic lower back pain.
Research from Photomedicine and Laser Surgery demonstrated that 650nm light increased collagen density and improved skin elasticity in human subjects.
