Healite II
Light Emitting Diode (LED) was originally developed by NASA for plant growth and healing experiments in space and has been used safely in aesthetics for over 15 years.
With LED therapy, light is absorbed through the layers of skin and into the skin cells. This light is then converted into energy, which stimulates the cell to replicate healthy skin cells.
LED treatments not only have immediate results but more importantly improve the condition and appearance of your skin long term. Light therapy oxygenates the skin cells, it also increases blood flow and circulation reducing inflammation and the appearance of pores, lines and wrinkles.
Following a course of LED treatments clinical changes include the improvement in collagen, elastin and cellular function – all of which are great for treating conditions such as acne, dermatitis, eczema and rosacea.

FAQS
How does it work?
Just like plants, our skin and other body tissues have the ability to absorb light and convert it into energy. LED light therapy delivers light energy in a similar way that plants absorb light energy from the sun. LED emits UV-free, beneficial light rays that energise cells and stimulate the body's natural process to build new proteins and regenerate.
