Low
level laser therapy (LLLT, also known as photobiomodulation, cold
laser therapy and laser biostimulation) is an emerging medical
technique in which exposure to low-level laser light or
light-emitting diodes are used to stimulate or inhibit cellular
function possibly leading to beneficial clinical effects. The
technique is also known by the more ambiguous terms laser therapy
and phototherapy (though the latter more accurately refers to light
therapy), which may also be used to describe other medical
techniques. Rationales for suggesting particular combinations of
wavelength, intensity, duration and treatment interval are still
being refined. |
