Yes, you can absolutely extend your treatment session to 10 minutes should you wish to - there would be no contraindications in doing so.
More doesn't necessarily mean better though. LED therapy works on the basis of delivering sufficient light energy to trigger biostimulation. For superficial skin, the optimal dosing window is between 2 and 10 Joules. You would achieve the higher end of this dosing with our Pulse40 panel within 6 minutes of pulsed light, or 10 minutes regular (non-pulsed light).
Photobiomodulation [LED therapy] works to the same principles as pharmacology, so we work with minimal doses. Think of it a bit like taking ibuprofen for a headache. Once the headache has gone, you have had sufficient dose. Taking more ibuprofen will not add any further benefit.
