Safety question

Can you overuse red light therapy? Are there side effects?

Direct answer

Yes, a light device can be used for longer or more often than its instructions recommend. More exposure is not automatically better, because dose depends on output, distance, and time. Follow the model-specific session guidance, start conservatively, and stop use if you experience discomfort or an unexpected reaction.
