Abstract :
Difficulty in wound healing is a common complication of clinical symptoms. It is important to find an effective, simple treatment for the wound healing. The light therapy is a new method. In this paper a therapeutic system using the 630nm and 830nm LED, which is dimmable, will be introduced to research the influence of light on cell viability and the synthesis of hydroxy proline, and thus the effect of LED applied in the wound healing will be explored.
