LED Light Therapy in Medicine Hat, Alberta

LED light therapy, also called low level light therapy, uses specific wavelengths of light to support your skin at a cellular level. There are no needles, no heat you need to recover from and no downtime.

At ClearView SkinCare we use the Healite II by Lutronic. It delivers concentrated light deep into the tissue to encourage your body’s own recovery process. Depending on what your skin needs, that can mean calmer inflammation, faster healing, fewer active breakouts or a general lift in tone and texture.

Healite II works two ways. It can be a treatment on its own, and it can be added to almost any other procedure we offer to help you recover more comfortably and see your results sooner.

Low level light therapy is painless, non-invasive and safe for every skin type.

The light from the Healite II is soothing to sit under, but it is doing real work beneath the surface. The wavelengths reach the skin cells and stimulate their internal functions, increasing blood flow in the dermis and prompting the cells to repair themselves faster than they would on their own.

That single mechanism explains the range of results. Better circulation and faster cellular activity mean quicker healing, less discomfort, calmer redness and fewer active acne lesions.

The device has an adjustable head and a flexible arm, so we can cover a broad area such as the whole face and neck, or focus the intensity on one spot that needs it.

Healite II offers three treatment heads. We select the one that matches your goal, and we will explain the choice before we begin.

830nm with 590nm photosequencing. Our recovery and rejuvenation setting. This is the wavelength for wound healing, skin rejuvenation and hair regrowth, and it is the one behind the healing time results below.

633nm. Red light for skin rejuvenation and hair regrowth.

415nm. Blue light, used for active acne.

Healite II is also one of the three technologies in our hair restoration protocol, where we combine LED light therapy with RF microneedling and our plant-based serum. We have seen excellent results with it. You can read more on our hair restoration for men and hair restoration for women pages.

If you have had a resurfacing laser such as Ultra, RF microneedling or a similar treatment, the days that follow are usually the least comfortable part. Adding Healite II shortens that stretch considerably.

Lutronic’s clinical data for the 830nm with 590nm photosequencing head reports the following:

• After facial surgery. Up to 13 weeks without Healite II, up to 6 weeks with it, a 53% reduction.
• Bruising. About a week without Healite II, 1 to 2 days with it, a 78% reduction.
• Redness, or erythema. 15 to 16 weeks without Healite II, 2 weeks with it, an 87% reduction.
• Swelling, or edema. 5 days to a week without Healite II, 2 to 3 days with it, a 58% reduction.

Results vary from person to person.

LED light therapy suits a wide range of people, partly because there is so little that rules anyone out. It is a good fit if you:

• Are recovering from a laser, microneedling or surgical procedure and want to be back to normal sooner
• Deal with active acne and want a treatment that calms it without irritation
• Have redness or inflammation that flares easily
• Want gradual skin rejuvenation with no downtime at all
• Are working on hair regrowth alongside our hair restoration for men or hair restoration for women programs
• Have sensitive skin, or a deeper skin tone, and have been told other treatments are not suitable

Healite II is safe and effective across all skin types. We will still go through your history and your goals at your consultation to confirm it is right for you.

There is very little to prepare for. You will lie back, we position the light head over the treatment area, and you rest for the length of the session. Most people find it relaxing, and a good number of our clients treat it as the calmest part of their week.

A typical session runs 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the plan we have built for you.

A standalone Healite II session has no downtime whatsoever. You can return to work, apply makeup or go straight back to your day. If we are using it alongside another procedure, any downtime comes from that procedure rather than from the light.

Most people are treated twice a week over a set period, and many notice a difference after the very first session.

• Painless and completely non-invasive
• No downtime when used on its own
• Safe and effective for all skin types
• Calms inflammation and redness
• Reduces active acne
• Speeds healing after other treatments
• Supports collagen and overall skin rejuvenation
• Pairs with almost any other treatment we offer
