Effect of He-Ne laser on early phase of reparation

The mechanism of the effect of He-Ne laser light was studied in the group of 22 healthy volunteers using the method of skin window. The imprint preparations of cell reaction from a reparative inflammation were examined 12, 24, and 48 hours after irradiation. It was concluded that single higher doses of radiation (50 J/cm2) accelerate the onset of macrophages in the inflammatory field and thus facilitate a more rapid and successful recovery of skin lesions.
