Irradiation of Laser also allow better circulation, which helps with supplying of nutrients to and removal of toxins (such as metabolic waste product) from surrounding tissues. LLLT promotes the synthesis of DNA and RNA and increases the production of proteins; it also modulates enzymatic activity and accelerates cell metabolism, all of which favourable to cell proliferation, and have long term benefits for repairing injured tissues.
