Rarely life threatening, recent studies have shown that psoriasis sufferers rate their quality of life at a level lower than those of diseases usually considered much more serious such as arthritis, diabetes, and cancer.

LHE Phototherapy for Psoriasis Halts the Cycle
LHE provides almost immediate relief without the need for topical therapies, oral medications, painful injections or over-exposure to ultraviolet light. Unlike conventional UV treatments, there is no limit to the amount of LHE treatments a patient can receive. LHE primarily uses safe, visible light from the yellow and green spectrums. Employing the principles of selective photothermolysis, LHE targets the blood-rich substructure of psoriatic lesions and coagulates the affected blood vessels, effectively cutting off the blood supply and inhibiting the psoriatic response. The selective photothermolysis process with LHE insures that only the psoriatic lesions are treated while healthy tissue remains untouched. Treatments can bring complete relief from itching in as little as 2–3 sessions. Most patients experience a 75% clearance in psoriatic lesions after a full treatment course of 8-10 sessions carried out over 4-5 weeks.
How LHE for Psoriasis Works
 |
LHE sends flashes of green and yellow Light to shrink and eliminate the blood vessels that feed the abnormal growth of psoriatic skin cells. |
 |
The Heat combined with infrared wavelengths reduces swelling and inflammation and stops the constant itching associated with psoriasis. |

All the Benefits without the Burn

 |
| Clinical trials have verified up to 75% reduction in psoriatic lesions following a 5 week biweekly treatment course, with patients experiencing complete relief from pruritus in as little 2 -3 sessions. Treatment consisted of 10 biweekly sessions spaced over 5 weeks. Average global PSI (psoriasis severity index) scores improved by 65%, from 8.36 at baseline to 2.91. |
“I felt improvement after only a few treatments and that improvement got gradually better as I continued treatment.”
T. R., Patient |
“I saw improvement in both lesions and itching beginning after the second week of treatment. And within 12 sessions the treated lesions disappeared completely.”
