MLS Laser Treatment 101
What Is MLS Laser Treatment?
MLS Laser Treatment is a non-invasive option for pain and recovery.
It uses specific wavelengths of infrared light to help manage pain and inflammation while supporting the body’s natural recovery process.
No needles. No injections. No surgery.
How Does It Work?
How can light help your body recover?
MLS Laser Treatment uses specific wavelengths of infrared light that interact with cells in the treated area.
This process, called photobiomodulation, may help manage pain and inflammation while supporting the body’s natural recovery response.
It’s a targeted approach that works with the body’s natural biology.
How many treatments will I need?
Your treatment plan will be individualized based on your condition and response to treatment. A typical course may include 6–12 sessions.
When will I see results?
Every patient and condition is different.
Some patients may notice changes in pain or symptoms within the first few treatments, while additional benefits may develop throughout the course of treatment. Because the effects of MLS Laser Treatment can be cumulative, a series of treatments is generally recommended rather than a single session.
Is MLS Laser Treatment a replacement for surgery?
No. MLS Laser Treatment is a non-invasive treatment option that may be incorporated into an overall treatment or recovery plan.
Who Can Benefit?
Could MLS Laser Treatment be an option for you?
MLS may be considered for people experiencing:
- Muscle and joint pain
- Inflammation and swelling
- Certain sports or activity-related injuries
- Chronic musculoskeletal pain
MLS may be used on its own or as part of a broader recovery plan, depending on your condition and goals.
What Does It Feel Like?
Wondering what MLS Laser Treatment feels like?
Most patients report little to no sensation during treatment.
MLS is non-invasive and does not involve needles, injections or surgery.
Your OSMC care team will explain what to expect based on your treatment plan.
Simple. Non-invasive. Another option for recovery.
Why Two Wavelengths?
MLS Laser Treatment combines two specific wavelengths of infrared light:
808 nm
Supports anti-inflammatory and anti-edema effects.
905 nm
Supports analgesic, or pain-relieving, effects.
The two wavelengths are synchronized in the MLS pulse to work together during treatment.
Two wavelengths. One synchronized approach to pain and recovery.
What Does the Research Show?
What does the research say about MLS Laser Treatment?
MLS Laser Treatment has been studied for a variety of conditions involving pain and inflammation.
In one study of 60 patients with chronic mechanical low back pain, 30 received MLS treatment and 30 were part of a control group.
After 10 treatments, 25 of the 30 patients who received MLS (83.3%) reported a positive result, with a significant reduction in painful symptoms.
MLS Laser Treatment has also been studied for other conditions, including painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy. One study reported a 63.2% decrease in pain following treatment.
Research is one part of the conversation. Your condition, goals and treatment options matter, too.
