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 bacteria. 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.
