Acne is the most common
skin disease in the world
and affects most
teenagers.
But 15 per cent of men
and 5 per cent of women
are still suffering in
their 40s
.

| Nlite
-
is a laser using yellow
light to destroy the
bacteria that cause Acne.
Inside this bacteria
is a substance called
porphorine which is
photosensitive. When
activated by either blue
or yellow light, it
creates a chemical
reaction releasing oxygen
which kills the bugs.
Yellow light
penetrates the skin more
deeply than blue light,
killing all the bacteria,
with much longer-lasting
results.
