The Science Behind the Patient Benefits: MITIGATING CELLULAR DAMAGE
Stopping Damage Before It Spreads (Protecting Cell Powerhouses) This therapy works deep inside your cells, where radiation & chemo treatments often cause damage & stress.
- The laser targets the mitochondria, which are the powerhouses that creates energy for the cells.
- Inside the mitochondria, the light hits a key enzyme & causes nitric oxide to be released. This allows the cell to function normally again
- This action immediately restores the cell’s ability to use oxygen efficiently, much like helping the cell to “breath” better
BOOSTING ENERGY & REPAIR
- The laser dramatically increases the production of ATP, the energy currency of the cell. This extra energy is vital for damaged cells in the mouth, neck & throat to start repairing themselves quickly.
- The energy boost helps prevent the cells from dying prematurely (which is a side-effect of radiation), which is key to reducing severe side effects such as oral mucositis & xerostomia.
- The laser promotes the growth of new, healthy cells & tissue, speeding up the entire healing process & getting the patient closer to recovery faster.
