What is photobiomodulation (PBM) and how does it accelerate healing?

Photobiomodulation uses specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light to stimulate cellular function. It accelerates healing by enhancing mitochondrial ATP production, reducing inflammation, and promoting collagen synthesis, which are all critical for tissue repair post-procedure (Avci P et al., Semin Cutan Med Surg, 2013; PMID 23628288).

How soon after a periorbital procedure can I start using the Angel Acid Orbital Defender?

It is generally recommended to begin using the Orbital Defender as soon as safely possible after your procedure, typically within 24-48 hours, or as advised by your medical practitioner. Early initiation helps to mitigate initial inflammation and accelerate the resolution of bruising and swelling.

What specific benefits can I expect for my periorbital area from this protocol?

The protocol aims to reduce post-procedure edema and bruising, accelerate wound healing, and enhance the quality of tissue repair. Users can expect improved skin elasticity, reduced appearance of fine lines, and a more refined aesthetic outcome in the periorbital region (Mota LR et al., Photobiomod Photomed Laser Surg, 2023; PMID 36780572).

Is the Angel Acid Orbital Defender safe to use with prescription skincare or other treatments?

The Orbital Defender is a CE-certified EU consumer wellness device. It is generally compatible with many topical treatments, but you should always consult your medical professional regarding specific prescription skincare products or other post-operative treatments to ensure no contraindications or interactions exist, especially with photosensitizing agents.

How long should each PBM session be, and for how many days?

Each session with the Angel Acid Orbital Defender should be 10 minutes long. For optimal post-procedure healing and aesthetic refinement, consistent daily use is recommended for at least 21 days to support the full cellular regeneration and collagen remodeling cycles.
