Near InfraRed Therapy

Using the latest NIR technology, we can gradually and safely heat the skin to produce tightening, promote healing and give a youthful glow

Your Trusted Partner in Aesthetics

Profile Aesthetic is a medically-led clinic in Aberdeen serving the Northeast of Scotland. We deliver NIR therapy using advanced technology as part of structured treatment plans — often combining it with laser or other modalities to enhance tightening and rejuvenation outcomes.

Why Choose Near InfraRed Therapy?

Near InfraRed (NIR) therapy is chosen when the goal is gentle, gradual skin tightening and rejuvenation without any surface disruption. NIR energy penetrates deeper than visible light, heating the tissue to stimulate collagen contraction and new collagen production — resulting in firmer, more resilient skin over time. It's a popular "no-downtime" option often paired with ClearLift for a combined tightening effect.

Procedure Details

NIR is delivered using a handpiece that gradually heats the deeper layers of the skin while the surface remains cool and protected. Your clinician controls the temperature and treatment area to ensure comfort and safety. It is frequently combined with ClearLift in the same session for a more comprehensive rejuvenation approach (sometimes called a "Pro-Lift").

Before the Procedure

  • No specific preparation required
  • Tell us about: pregnancy/breastfeeding, metal implants in the treatment area, active skin conditions
  • Arrive with clean skin if possible

During the Procedure
