What is Photodynamic Therapy (PDT)
Photodynamic Therapy is a form of laser therapy where the laser light is placed directly in the bloodstream. It works as an intensive immune boost that also combines powerful effects to combat the signs of aging, with visible results inside and out.
It is an advanced German technology that has been certified internationally.
A few key understandings:
- Uses laser to shine into our bloodstream
- Uses different frequencies/wavelengths to stimulate different functions in the body
- Blood circulation brings the activated blood cells to the whole body
- Each treatment = 1 hour
- Painless, no side effects, no healing time
International Accreditations
- Medical Device Authority, Malaysia
- FDA, USA
- CE, Europe
- Australian Government Depart of Health, Therapeutic Goods Administration

How does it work?
In a regular cell, there are specific cellular structures that are able to absorb specific wavelengths (colours) of light.
The light stimulus gives a cellular signal affecting the chemical behaviour, metabolism, movement, and gene expression of the cell. This eventually ripples across the cell and the entire body.
Function of the Colours
- Infrared: eliminate cancer cells, stem cell activation
- Red: immune stimulation, energy-boosting
- Yellow: detoxification, serotonin and vitamin D stimulation
- Green: increase oxygen and blood flow, wound healing
- Blue: release nitric oxide, anti-aging, cell repair
- Ultraviolet: activates the destruction of fungal, viral, and bacterial growth
Areas of application
- Cardiovascular: Hypertension, heart disease/failure, blood circulation disorders, high cholesterol, lipid metabolic disorder
- Neurological: autism, Alzheimer’s and dementia, depression and anxiety disorder, headache and migraine, Parkinsons, Stroke, chronic fatigue syndrome
- Endocrine: Hormonal imbalance, diabetes, erectile dysfunction, Hashimoto thyroiditis, thyroid disease, infertility
- Gastrointestinal diseases
- Liver: Hepatitis, cirrhosis, fatty liver disease, chronic liver and kidney disease
- Tumors
- Viral, bacterial and fungal infections
Main Effects for Patients Under Anti-Aging & Chronic Disease Management Programmes
- Feel and look younger
- Normalised vital sign readings
- Improved sleep quality
- Pain relieved
- Improvement of performance (cognitive function, athletic, and sexual performance)
- Stronger immune system
- Better & brighter mood
- Reduced risks of diseases
The Procedure
- Report and consultation: Before proceeding with the treatment, patients are required to do a medical check-up and attend a consultation with our specialists.
- Recommended sessions: Based on the patient's health concerns, there are options of 4, 7, or 12 sessions to start with.
- Treatment commences: Based on the report and consultation, our team will select the most suitable wavelengths for each patient. An average treatment lasts for 60 minutes.
- Frequency of treatment: For patients under anti-aging and chronic disease management programmes, once to twice per week treatment is recommended. For patients under cancer rehab and post-covid recovery programmes, a maximum of 2 sessions per day can be administered continuously for faster and better results.
History of Light Therapy
1903: Professor Niels Finsen was awarded with Nobel Prize for the discovery of antimicrobial effects of UV light. He started using his phototherapy especially in lupus vulgaris and tuberculosis patients.
1981: Intravenous laser was first introduced by Soviet scientists.
Initial phase: Red and infrared lasers were originally developed for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.
Promising effects: It was found to have various effects on hematologic and immunologic systems.
2007: First green diode was developed
2008: Frist blue diode was developed
2013: First yellow diode was developed
2016: First ultraviolet diode was developed
