Your scar doesn't stop healing when it looks settled. Beneath the surface, your skin continues to remodel - laying down collagen, responding to inflammation, and rebuilding structure - for up to two years after surgery.

At Avery, our NIR light therapy programme is built around that biology. Using the Healite II medical-grade LED device, nine sessions of 830nm near-infrared light are delivered at precisely the right moments in your recovery - from pre-operative priming through the critical fibroblast window and into early remodelling. Each session targets what your healing skin is doing at that exact point in time.

The programme is informed by published randomised controlled trial evidence and guided by your clinician every step of the way. It is painless, non-invasive, and has no downtime.

We’re over the moon to have Alice, our incredible Care Team Coordinator, back with us after maternity leave, celebrating the arrival of her third gorgeous little girl!

Alice has been with Avery since the very beginning, and her return truly feels like coming home. She’s a super mum, wonderfully calm, and has that special way of making everyone feel at ease—whether you’re meeting her for the first time or catching up after some time away.

We’re so excited to have her energy, warmth, and expertise back with the team. Welcome home, Alice—you’ve been missed!
