Two light sources
Points plus coverage
Laser diodes concentrate light into precise points while LEDs fill in every area between them.
Heiskanen & Hamblin · Photochem Photobiol Sci · 2018
Both send photons into your skin. A laser’s light is coherent: every wave in step, one exact color, packed into a point. An LED’s light is broader and spreads out to cover more area.
A 2018 review of light therapy concluded both can work, and that wavelength and dose matter most. So instead of choosing, Elysium Pro uses both.
A laser is a marching band, every step in sync. An LED is a crowd walking the same way. Both get there. One covers detail, the other covers ground.

Ten minutes
Your neck shows age as fast as your face and usually gets none of the attention.

In a 76-person trial, red and near-infrared light twice a week reduced wrinkling and improved elasticity compared with a sham light.
Lee et al. · J Photochem Photobiol B · 2007Neck and jawline
Burn units count your head and neck as 9% of your skin. The included neck panel lights the half of that a face mask skips.
Wallace rule of ninesHow it works
Light between roughly 650 and 1,350 nanometers sits in the body’s optical window: the range where blood and water absorb the least, so light travels the furthest. Longer wavelengths reach deeper.
Absorbed in the top layers of skin. The wavelength used in most skin studies.
Invisible to you, and it travels further into tissue, toward muscle and joints.

Myth vs truth
Laser means it burns.
Resurfacing lasers at a clinic heat and wound skin on purpose. Low-level lasers work at power levels that don’t cut or burn tissue. Same word, different job: a scalpel and a butter knife are both knives.
Heiskanen & Hamblin · Photochem Photobiol Sci · 2018Lasers always beat LEDs.
A 2018 review of photobiomodulation found both can work, because wavelength and dose matter more than the source. That’s why Elysium Pro uses both: laser points plus even LED coverage.
Heiskanen & Hamblin · Photochem Photobiol Sci · 2018If 20 minutes is good, an hour is better.
Light follows a biphasic dose response: too little does nothing, the right dose helps, and too much can cancel the benefit. It’s watering a plant, not filling a pool. Use the timer.

Regular sessions over weeks are what the studies measured.
The research
Every claim on this page points to a published paper. Here they are.
Compared lasers and LEDs for photobiomodulation and concluded both can work; wavelength and dose matter more than the light source.
Heiskanen & Hamblin · Photochemical & Photobiological Sciences · 2018Adults with facial wrinkles used red (633 nm), near-infrared (830 nm), both, or a sham light for 4 weeks. The real-light groups showed less wrinkling and better elasticity than sham.
Lee et al. · Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology B · 2007Full-body red light units, twice a week for 30 sessions. Skin complexion and roughness improved, and ultrasound measured higher collagen density than in the control group.
Wunsch & Matuschka · Photomedicine and Laser Surgery · 2014Cytochrome c oxidase, part of the energy chain inside your mitochondria, absorbs red and near-infrared light and changes how the cell makes energy.
Karu · IUBMB Life · 2010FAQ
Never look into the laser points, and keep the included goggles on during every session.
No. These are low-level lasers, which work at power levels far below the clinic lasers that heat and resurface skin.
Elysium uses LEDs only. Elysium Pro adds laser diodes for focused points of light and includes a neck and jawline panel.
Use it on clean, dry skin. Apply serums and moisturizer after the session.
Three to five sessions a week. Start on a low intensity level and let the timer end the session.
Yes. Start a return within 30 days of delivery by emailing info@tharsyn.com. The refund policy has the conditions.
