An excerpt from a YouTube video by Robert Whitfield MD asking whether red light therapy primarily improves skin appearance (smoothing, evening, brightening) and whether it also upregulates mitochondrial function. The speaker expresses a favorable personal view of red light for skin while querying the mitochondrial mechanism.

To light therapy to reestablish. Which, you know, if you think about it more like mitochondrial, right? I mean, I love red light. I, I mean, I, I think red light is wonderful. The number one feature I feel like it does is help with skin, skin tone. Like, I feel like it just smooths, evens, brightens. Like, I love that feature. But I also understand that it has a mitochondrial up upregulation to it too. Is this correct?
