Photobiomodulation in Aesthetics: Expand Your Services and Equip Your Salon

Share this article:

Photobiomodulation has become a sought-after treatment at beauty salons: it is non-invasive, painless, and requires no downtime. For a beautician or spa, it is a way to differentiate their offerings, build customer loyalty, and increase the average transaction value.

In short: Offering photobiomodulation enhances your facial and body treatments and creates a recurring service. As for equipment, prices start at €490 for a facial device or panel, and go up to a full-body cabin for a premium offering.

Why offer photobiomodulation at a beauty salon?

  • Differentiation: a cutting-edge treatment that is still relatively uncommon and enhances your image.
  • Recurrence: Treatments are administered as a course, which builds customer loyalty.
  • Versatility: skin care, radiance, anti-aging, relaxation, and recovery.
  • Convenience: painless, no downtime, and easy to combine with your other treatments.
