About Refresh technology TL
Refresh technology TL is a composite technology that is effective for various physical disorders and beauty using light rays and special acoustic stream vibrations. (Patented)
Features of light rays
For the wavelengths of near-infrared rays and red visible light, we have selected effective wavelengths that have been published in many world papers. Therefore, we have achieved a wide range of wavelengths that are considered effective.
- There are many wavelengths effective for the skin between red and near infrared rays, it has been published in papers around the world. Therefore, Refresh technology TL offers near-infrared and red visible light. It is equipped with both.
- The intensity can be adjusted. (4 stages)
- The placebo effect is also realized by red visible light
About Vibration
- Vibration is based on Refresh Technology TL, special acoustic stream vibrations
- The intensity can be adjusted. (3 stages)
- There is a intermittent function (Perpetual mode & Intermittent mode)
- Vibrations that match the characteristics of the metal are generated. (Three types of motors and three types of trembler are used.)
Other features
High-spec fluororesin is used for the contact part with the skin.
Effect of Refresh Technology TL
- Effect of Near-Infrared
(1) Effect of Heat
(2) IR Effect as the Light - Effect of Red Visible Light
- Effect of Vibration
(1) Effect of Transdermal Drug Delivery (TDD)
(2) Effect of Massage
1. (1) The effect of near-infrared heat (Therapy of Superficial Heat)
1. Vasodilation
a) Vasodilator system that relies on local production of nitrous oxide
b) Fast-responding vasodilator system mediated by axon reflexes
2. Neuromuscular Effects
a) Changes in Nerve Conduction Velocity and Firing Rate (Relaxation of Muscle Contraction)
b) Increased Pain Threshold (Pain relief)
- Direct and immediate reduction of pain by activation of the spinal gating mechanism
- Reduction of pain by reduction of ischemia and muscle spasm or by facilitation of tissue healing
3. Increased Metabolic Rate
a) Improvement of enzyme activity by heat
b) Increase oxygen uptake
4. Increased Collagen Extensibility
Increasing the temperature of soft tissue increases its extensibility. (Tendons, ligaments, articular, etc.)
1. (2) Near-Infrared Effect as the Light (Non-Heat effect)
- Promote Adenosine Triphosphate Production
- Promoting Collagen Production
- Cell proliferation
- Inhibit Bacterial Growth
- Promote Vasodilation
- Alter Nerve Conduction Velocity and Regeneration
* Depth (Near-Infrared Red ≈30mm Visible Red Light ≈8mm)
1. Promote Adenosine Triphosphate Production
Increased ATP production is thought to be the enhancement of tissue healing and able to reduce fatigue.
2. Promoting Collagen Production
Red and N-IR light has been shown to promote an increase in collagen synthesis and mRNA production, and to induce a more than threefold increase in procollagen production.
3. Cell Proliferation
Red to IR wavelength range can also stimulate proliferation of various cells involved in tissue healing, including fibroblasts, keratinocytes, and endothelial cells.
4. Inhibit Bacterial Growth
Red to IR light can also inhibit bacterial growth.
5. Promote Vasodilation
Red to IR light can induce vasodilation, particularly of the microcirculation. This effect may be mediated by the release of preformed nitric oxide. Such vasodilation could accelerate tissue healing by increasing the availability of oxygen and other nutrients, and by speeding the removal of waste products from the irradiated area.
6. Alter Nerve Conduction Velocity and Regeneration
Some studies have shown increased peripheral nerve conduction velocities, increased frequency of action potentials, decreased distal sensory latencies, accelerated nerve regeneration, and reduced nerve scarring in response to laser stimulation, all of which indicate increased activation of nervous tissue by laser light. This effect has appeared to be more pronounced with red laser light than with blue or IR. These positive effects occur in response to laser irradiation over the site of nerve compression and are enhanced by irradiation of corresponding spinal cord segments. In addition, laser irradiation has been found to induce axonal sprouting and outgrowth in cultured nerves and in in vitro brain cortex.
2. Effect of Red Visible Light
The effect of visible red light is similar to near infrared, but red light exceeds infrared light in increasing peripheral nerve conduction rate, increase in activity potential frequency, shortening peripheral sensory nerve latency, improving nerve regeneration rate, and decreasing nerve scarring.

Reference
Optical Window
Water and blood are impaired to deepen light to a certain extent in the body.
It can be seen that near infrared and red visible light are hardly absorbed by water and blood in the wavelength range. Thus, near infrared and red visible light can reach cells.
Biphasic Dose-Response
When stimulation is applied to the body, biphasic responses are most often appearing, and it is said that Arndt-Schultz’s law applies.
Prügel-Arntschulz’s law of stimulation is a law that stimulates nerve function with weak stimulation, excites nerve function with moderate stimulation, strong stimulation suppresses neural function, and rests with the strongest stimulus, that is, it is said that applying moderate stimulation is the best stimulus for the living body.
Spectral distribution
It can be seen that the wavelength band used in the refresh technology TL is wider and the energy of light is stronger than that of ordinary IR equipment.
