The Glotech™ Collar — a wearable medical apparatus developed by LED Esthetics — has received clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. This device is engineered to administer light therapy specifically to the neck and upper chest region. These areas have been frequently identified as being neglected in conventional skincare regimens.
LED Esthetics' performance-driven Glotech™ Collar functions by emitting two distinct wavelengths of light — red light, which is intended to address skin concerns such as wrinkle reduction and the fading of dark spots by stimulating collagen, and near-infrared light, which penetrates more deeply to purportedly enhance skin elasticity and improve circulation.
The Glotech™ Collar was designed with convenience in mind, as the device is wireless and portable. The treatment requires a single ten-minute session per day, with LED Esthetics indicating that initial results may become apparent within three to four weeks of consistent use.
