What is Acne?
Acne, pimples, zits, no matter what you call
it, acne is a serious, often heartbreaking condition. And
one of the most common, worldwide nearly 80% of people will
suffer from acne at some point in their lives.
“There is no
single disease which causes more psychic trauma, more
maladjustment between parents and children, more general
insecurity and feelings of inferiority and greater sums of
psychic suffering than does acne vulgaris.”
Sulzberger & Zaldems
A disease of the pilosebaceous glands, acne can be hard to
treat. Each year, approximately $5 billion are spent on acne
treatment, most if it on medication. However, many of these
acne medications, ranging from the over-the-counter (OTC) to
prescription, are expensive and may cause significant side
effects. They generally require several months of continuous
treatment, and many patients do not respond to them or
witness only limited effect.

How does LHE Acne Phototherapy work?
Blocked pores create a closed anaerobic environment that
leads to rapid buildup of a P. acnes colony under the skin.
LHE clears acne safely and effectively with a series of
concentrated pulses of light and heat. The green wavelength
light penetrates deep into the skin to cause proliferation
of porphyrins, resulting in the destruction of P. acnes. The
concentrated pulse is up to 10,000 times more effective in
porphyrin activation than the continuous wave light used by
other light-based technologies. The red wavelength produces
anti-inflammatory results. The addition of heat, unique to
the LHE method, further increases the effectiveness by
opening the skin pores and producing a faster chemical
reaction.
