Umbrella Review
A 2025 umbrella review of 204 randomised controlled trials found photobiomodulation significantly improved outcomes across nine health conditions — with the strongest evidence for fibromyalgia, knee osteoarthritis, cognitive function, and hair density. Here is what the evidence shows.

Photomedicine and Laser Surgery
A 2014 controlled trial in Photomedicine and Laser Surgery tested red and near-infrared light therapy in 136 participants over 30 sessions across fifteen weeks. Both light-treated groups showed significant improvements in skin complexion, roughness, patient satisfaction, and ultrasound-measured intradermal collagen density compared with untreated controls.

Head & Neck
A 2024 systematic review and meta-analysis in Head & Neck pooled 14 randomised trials covering 869 head and neck cancer patients receiving chemoradiotherapy. Photobiomodulation significantly reduced the incidence and severity of oral mucositis from the second week of treatment onward — supporting its use as an evidence-based supportive-care intervention.

Lasers in Medical Science
A 2013 randomised, placebo-controlled trial in Lasers in Medical Science treated 43 patients with hypothyroidism from chronic autoimmune (Hashimoto’s) thyroiditis with 10 sessions of low-level infrared laser. The laser group showed improved thyroid function, lower thyroid peroxidase antibody levels, and reduced levothyroxine dose requirements — with the benefits sustained at six-year follow-up.

Randomised Controlled Trial (PubMed-indexed)
A 2025 single-blinded randomised controlled trial in 200 patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy tested ten daily sessions of low-level helium-neon laser therapy against sham. The active group showed significant reductions in neuropathic pain, improved protective foot sensation and quality of life, with neuron-specific biomarkers shifting in the same direction.

Clinical Rehabilitation
A 2022 systematic review and meta-analysis in Clinical Rehabilitation pooled randomised controlled trials of laser-based photobiomodulation in adults with chronic non-specific low back pain. The pooled analysis showed clinically meaningful pain reduction compared with control conditions, with disability outcomes pointing in the same direction.

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation
A 2021 systematic review and network meta-analysis in the Journal of Oral Rehabilitation pooled 27 randomised trials covering 969 patients with temporomandibular disorder pain. Low-level laser therapy outperformed transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation for short-term TMD pain relief, with higher-wavelength laser protocols producing the strongest effects.

Lasers in Medical Science
A 2025 comprehensive review mapped the mechanisms by which photobiomodulation alters immune responses — from mitochondrial ATP production to macrophage polarisation and T cell regulation — with clinical evidence across rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and wound healing.

The Lancet
A 2009 systematic review and meta-analysis in The Lancet pooled 16 randomised controlled trials covering 820 patients with acute and chronic non-specific neck pain. Low-level laser therapy reduced pain by a mean 19.86 mm on the 100 mm visual analogue scale immediately after treatment compared with placebo, with significant reductions sustained out to 22 weeks of follow-up.
