Hair & Skin—Powered by Light

Low‑Level Light Therapy (LLLT) with Healite II™

Healite II™ is an advanced photobiomodulation therapy—also called low‑level light therapy (LLLT)—that uses medical‑grade LED light (red and low level infrared light therapy) to calm inflammation, reduce pain, speed recovery and brighten skin. Treatments are quick (typically 10–20 minutes), feel pleasantly warm, and have no downtime. Many patients notice a difference after a single session, with best results in a short series.

With Healite II we can support:

Pain relief and post‑treatment recovery
Skin rejuvenation—glow, clarity and calm
Low level laser light therapy for hair loss / hair growth as part of medical hair programmes
Gentle care for sensitive, post‑procedure, or irritated skin—all skin tones, all seasons.

What is Healite II and low-level light therapy?

Low‑level light therapy (LLLT) is a non‑invasive therapy that delivers precise wavelengths of LED light therapy to energise cells and nudge the body’s own repair systems.

In clinic we use Healite II, a medical device that offers targeted protocols in the red and near‑infrared spectrum (with priming 590 nm “photosequencing” when indicated).

It is not an ablative laser; there is no injury, no peeling, no downtime—just healing light designed to reduce inflammation and improve tissue functioning.

How does it work?

Think of Healite II as a cellular “battery charger.” Specific wavelengths are absorbed by mitochondrial enzymes, increasing ATP (energy), modulating oxidative stress, and switching off inflammatory signalling. In practical terms, patients feel less tenderness, less swelling, and see calmer, clearer skin.

On the scalp, the same photobiomodulation can encourage a healthier environment for hair and support low level laser light therapy for hair growth programmes. Typical sessions last 10–20 minutes and feel relaxing and warm.

The Healite II platform includes:

830 nm near‑infrared (NIR) for deep, soothing, anti‑inflammatory effects (often paired with 590 nm photosequencing).
415 nm blue (where appropriate) for complexion clarity.

Does low‑level light therapy work?

Yes—when the wavelength, energy dose, and schedule are correct. In our clinic we use the Healite II protocols (e.g., 830 nm near‑infrared with 590 nm photosequencing) precisely for this reason. Many patients feel calmer, more comfortable skin immediately; cumulative change follows a short series.

Is red light therapy the same as low‑level laser?

Not quite. Both belong to the broader category of photobiomodulation, but they use different technologies. At our clinic, we use near-infrared LED light, not red light or laser. Low-level laser therapy uses a focused, coherent beam that penetrates deeply and precisely, whereas near-infrared LED light (like Healite II) is non-coherent and covers a broader area comfortably. Each has its place—your specific skin concern or medical condition determines the most suitable option.

What can LLLT help with?

Adjunctive pain relief, post‑procedure recovery (less redness, swelling and bruising), skin rejuvenation, and support for low level laser light therapy hair loss programmes. It’s a versatile, non‑invasive therapy suitable for all skin tones.

How long is a session and how many will I need?

A session is typically 10–20 minutes. Most programmes are 2 sessions per week for 3–6 weeks, followed by maintenance. We’ll tailor this to your skin, goals, and schedule.

Will it regrow my hair?

Low level laser light therapy for hair growth is best seen as a supportive pillar in a medical hair plan. Healite II improves scalp environment and cellular energy; we often combine it with proven topicals or in‑clinic therapies for the best outcome. Results vary person‑to‑person.

Is it safe and suitable for my skin type?

Yes. LED light therapy with Healite II is non‑ablative and suitable for all skin types when used appropriately. There’s no downtime, and it pairs beautifully with many aesthetic treatments to shorten recovery.

What does it feel like?

Most people describe a gentle, soothing warmth and often a quick nap! There is no burning, no peeling, and no after‑care beyond SPF and your usual routine.

Can it help with pain?

Yes. Patients often report pain relief and easier movement after NIR (830 nm) sessions due to anti‑inflammatory and circulation‑supporting effects. We use it as an adjunct to your existing care plan.

Are there any contraindications?

We avoid treatment over active skin cancers and take caution with photosensitising medications or conditions. During your consultation we’ll review medical history and customise your light treatment plan.
