Healite Therapy, also known as Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT) or LED (Light-Emitting Diode) Therapy, is a non-invasive medical treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular activity, enhance healing, and reduce pain and inflammation. It is a versatile and safe procedure used in various medical and cosmetic applications.

During Healite Therapy, a specialised LED device emits specific wavelengths of light that penetrate the skin and are absorbed by the cells. This light energy stimulates cellular processes, including increased production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the molecule that provides energy for cellular activities. This boost in cellular energy enhances the body’s natural healing processes, making it beneficial for various conditions and treatments.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of Healite Therapy?

One of the significant advantages of Healite Therapy is its non-invasiveness and lack of downtime. It is considered a safe and gentle procedure, suitable for various skin types and conditions. However, its effectiveness can vary based on the specific condition being treated and the individual’s response to the therapy.

  • Dermatology and aesthetics: Healite Therapy is used in dermatology and cosmetic medicine to promote collagen production, improve skin texture, and accelerate healing after cosmetic procedures like laser treatments, microneedling, or chemical peels. It helps reduce redness, swelling and discomfort following these treatments, leading to quicker recovery and enhanced results.
  • Pain management: Healite Therapy is employed to alleviate pain and inflammation in conditions such as arthritis, muscle strains and joint injuries. The light energy helps reduce inflammation and promotes tissue repair, providing relief from pain and discomfort.
  • Wound healing: It is used to enhance the healing of wounds, cuts and injuries. By stimulating cellular activity, Healite Therapy accelerates the natural healing process, leading to faster wound closure and reduced scarring.
  • Sports injuries: Athletes often use Healite Therapy to speed up the recovery process after sports-related injuries, helping them return to training and competition more quickly.
  • Chronic pain conditions: Healite Therapy is also explored as a non-pharmacological approach to managing chronic pain conditions, providing relief to patients without the use of drugs.

What are the side effects of Healite Therapy?

Healite Therapy is generally considered a safe and non-invasive procedure with minimal side effects. Most patients do not experience any adverse reactions after undergoing Healite Therapy, however, as with any medical treatment, there can be some potential side effects, although they are rare and usually mild. These may include:

  • Redness: Some individuals might experience mild redness in the treated area immediately after the therapy. This redness typically subsides within a few hours to a day.
  • Swelling: In some cases, there might be slight swelling, especially if the treatment is targeted at reducing inflammation. Swelling, if present, is usually minimal and temporary.
  • Discomfort: Patients usually do not report significant discomfort during or after Healite Therapy. However, some individuals might experience a mild sensation of warmth or tingling at the treatment site, which is generally well-tolerated.
  • Skin sensitivity: People with very sensitive skin might experience temporary sensitivity in the treated area. This sensitivity is typically short-lived and resolves on its own.
  • Dry skin: Rarely, some individuals might experience mild dryness in the treated area. Proper hydration and moisturisation can alleviate this symptom.

Who would not be suited to have Healite therapy?

While LED therapy, including Healite Therapy, is generally safe and non-invasive, there are certain situations and conditions where it might not be advisable or should be used with caution. Individuals falling under the following categories should consult with a healthcare professional before undergoing LED therapy:

  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women: The effects of LED therapy on developing fetuses or infants are not well-studied, so pregnant or breastfeeding women should avoid this treatment unless specifically recommended by a healthcare provider.
  • Epilepsy: Some LED devices emit flickering or pulsating light, which could potentially trigger seizures in individuals with photosensitive epilepsy. Individuals with epilepsy should consult their healthcare provider before using any light therapy devices.
  • Skin conditions: People with certain skin conditions, such as active skin infections, open wounds, psoriasis, eczema, or skin cancer, should avoid LED therapy in affected areas or use it under the supervision of a dermatologist.
  • Cancer patients: LED therapy is generally considered safe for cancer patients, but specific protocols and guidelines should be followed. Patients with cancer should consult their oncologist before undergoing any form of light therapy.
  • Medications: Certain medications, such as retinoids or Accutane, can make the skin more sensitive. People using such medications should be cautious and consult with their healthcare provider before undergoing LED therapy.

It’s essential for individuals with any underlying health conditions or concerns to discuss LED therapy with their healthcare provider before proceeding. Additionally, consulting with a qualified practitioner or dermatologist ensures that the treatment is administered safely and effectively, taking into account the individual’s specific needs and health considerations.

How does Healite Therapy work?

Just like plants, our skin and other body tissues can absorb light and convert it into energy. LED light therapy like Healite Therapy delivers light energy in a similar way that plants absorb light energy from the sun. UV-free, beneficial light rays are emitted that work to energise cells and stimulate the body’s natural process to build new proteins and regenerate.

Is Healite Therapy safe for people with sensitive skin?

Healite Therapy is perfectly safe for sensitive skin and is a great treatment for mild eczema and psoriasis. It will not worsen post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

How do I prepare for Healite Therapy?

It’s important to have a clean face that is free from makeup before Healite Therapy. You will be provided with safety goggles to protect your eyes from the bright lights.

What is the aftercare process for Healite Therapy?

After Healite Therapy, you can return to your regular activities, but you must stay out of the sun for several days and apply extra sunscreen.

What are the side effects of Healite Therapy?

It’s rare to experience side effects from Healite Therapy, but some may include increased inflammation, rashes, redness and pain.

What's the recovery time after Healite Therapy?

There isn’t a recovery time for Healite Therapy, besides being careful about sun exposure in the 48 hours after treatment, you can return to your normal routine. As opposed to other skin treatments, such as chemical peels, there isn’t any damage to the skin.
