LED Healite Phototherapy is remarkably effective for enhancing skin healing and rejuvenation, and due to its versatility, it is used to treat a plethora of skin concerns.
LED Phototherapy utilises different light frequencies to stimulate the creation of collagen and elastin in your skin which enhances your skin’s tone, luminosity and texture. It also stimulates the healing process at a cellular level which makes it an excellent treatment for any post, invasive or minimally invasive procedure.
LED Healite Acne utilises two different light wavelengths, delivered in two separate sessions.
The 415nm wavelength kills P.acne, the acne-causing bacteria, and porphyrin, the by-product of active P.acne. This particular treatment effectively helps eliminate inflammation and infection and reduce further breakouts. The 415nm session must be followed up 48-72 hours later with the 830nm wavelength treatment, which is used to kill off any rogue t-cells; these can often mimic their usual environment and act like the acne-causing bacteria and acneic cells. The 830nm light wavelength (near infrared light) is particularly effective in stimulating the skin cells and mitochondria to work, heal and rejuvenate faster and more effectively.
LED Healite Phototherapy can be used on both the face and body as a single skin treatment or as part of your skin treatment program. When used in conjunction with other skin treatment such as peels, skin needling and/or resurfacing, LED Therapy enhances the positive effects of these treatments on the skin.
Due to the systemic anti-inflammatory effects of the Healite system, most clients report a general feeling of wellbeing after treatments, especially when undertaking the LED Therapy treatments regularly.
Before the treatment can start, we will assess your current state of the skin. If you are visiting us for the first time, please allow an additional hour for our complete Facial Imaging Consultation.
You will be required to give consent for treatment by signing the 'Informed Consent' form. This way, we can make sure that you can receive the LED Healite Phototherapy treatment and have no present conditions which are contraindicated with this procedure.
During the session, you will lay down and relax while we position the Healite II device above your face or any other area we will be treating.
Most clients find this treatment very pleasant and relaxing. With slight heat applied to your skin, it is much like lying on the beach in the sun without the harmful UVA, UVB and infrared radiation.
LED Healite Phototherapy requires no downtime, and our clients usually notice a fresher, healthier appearance to their skin immediately after treatment.
Following a LED Healite session, some people may experience redness due to increased circulation, which tends to resolve within minutes or hours, at most.
While we recommend you wear sunscreen every day, you’ll need to be especially vigilant for several days after the treatment.
If you notice that your skin is more sensitive or reactive, you might need to revise your typical skin regimen. If you are unsure, please contact us for advice.
A Facial Imaging Skin Assessment is an essential first step in your skin correction journey. That’s why we offer a complimentary skin consultation with your first skin treatment.
