The protocol this study used
What the authors concluded
.The results indicate that even at the early phase of the treatment (7 days), the LLLT at low doses 70 mJ ∙ cm–2 and 140 mJ ∙ cm–2 promotes the deposition of new collagen, slightly higher for 70 mJ ∙ cm–2, and the continuous irradiation with higher doses (700 mJ ∙ cm–2) increases the production of type I collagen
Devices that emit this wavelength
Matched on wavelength within 15nm, since LED bins vary by roughly that much and a tighter match would be false precision. Where we have an irradiance figure, the session length is the time needed to reach this study's dose of 0.07 J/cm² at that intensity.

Matching a wavelength is not the same as reproducing a trial. Session times assume the device's published irradiance is accurate at the distance it was measured, which on brand-claim figures is often optimistic. Where a device publishes both a peak and an average we use the average, and where it publishes a falloff curve we use the lowest figure, so these times run long rather than short. Clinical protocols also control for spot size, contact and skin type in ways a home device cannot.
