There are studies linking chronic use of infrared radiation to accelerated skin aging. The background is that light in the infrared range in fibroblasts, meaning the cells of the connective tissue, increases the activity of so-called matrix metalloproteinases. These proteins serve to break down collagen and elastin - important structural components of the skin. The activation is likely triggered by infrared radiation stimulating mitochondria in cells to produce free radicals (ROS). Especially if the skin is already stressed by UV radiation, its damage can be aggravated by infrared light. However, if antioxidants are added, the mitochondria produce significantly less ROS.
