Comparative efficacy of 532 nm green versus 635 nm red low-level laser for adipose response
Photomedicine and Laser Surgery — Comparative wavelength study group
All clinical evidence
Summary
A head-to-head comparison of green and red wavelengths for adipose tissue response, examining absorption characteristics and measured outcomes.
Key findings
- Green wavelength demonstrated a stronger adipose response at equivalent energy
- Both wavelengths were well tolerated with no thermal injury
- Supports wavelength selection as a clinically meaningful variable
Clinical takeaway
Wavelength matters — green light is absorbed differently by adipose tissue than red.
