At Laser Medicine, London, we support the work of leading clinical fertility clinics around the world, with the application of Low Level Laser Light Therapy (LLLT), which is recognised as one of several ancillary treatments that can help people who are either going through IVF or trying to conceive naturally. Patients undergoing clinical IVF / Assisted Reproductive Therapy (ART) can be encouraged by leading IVF clinics, such as Serum Advanced IVF Treatment Centre in Athens, Greece, to participate in Ovarian PRP to rejuvenate and improve egg quality. Serum IVF have told us that Ovarian PRP carried out in their Athens clinic, works well in combination with Low Level Laser Therapy for Fertility, which Laser Medicine provides at our Central London, West London and Norfolk clinics.
Low Level Laser Therapy is also known as Red Light Therapy (because of the wavelengths used within the Infrared / Near Infrared range (600-1000nm)). A combination of ovarian PRP and / or Low Level Laser Therapy for Fertility can promote good reproductive health and improve egg quality for older men and women, and we are seeing very good results in our London clinic.
Since October 2023 we have partnered with a select group of leading gynaecologists in the London Harley Street area, who are carrying out Ovarian and Uterine PRP procedures in the UK. We are assessing improved fertility outcomes for Therapeutic Laser / PBM Red Light Therapy and Ovarian PRP for ovarian rejuvenation.

Ovarian PRP to improve fertility.
Penny Abatzi, the founder and clinic director at Serum, supports the patient’s choice of IVF ancillary treatments to improve reproductive health and increase the chance of successful conception and pregnancy. We recently shared learnings, and Penny told us that she encourages patients to try everything possible to support their fertility journey. We discussed the effectiveness of LLLT and Ovarian PRP in particular, during the process of IVF.
PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) Therapy as an IVF ancillary treatment.
Ovarian PRP treatment is a newly pioneered procedure (several clinical trials are underway), which may offer hope to women with early premature ovarian failure, diminished ovarian reserve and to those who are advanced in reproductive age, or have had repeated IVF failure or poor egg quality. OVA-PRP intends to rejuvenate ovarian tissue, stimulate vascularisation, improve blood supply and re-awake dormant eggs into maturation for development within the ovary.
Low Level Laser Therapy / PBMT as an ancillary IVF treatment.
Laser Therapy, also known as Red Light Therapy or Photobiomodulation Therapy (PBMT) has proven successful in various clinics worldwide as an IVF ancillary treatment. Success rates have proved as high as 65% for patients who have failed to fall pregnant many times before using various methods of TTC. Furthermore, laboratory studies have repeatedly shown the effectiveness of Low Level Laser Therapy for Fertility due to enhanced mitochondrial activity and ATP production, increased blood flow and the reduction of oxidative damage, promoting the energetic value of the developing embryo in early stages. At our Harley Street fertility clinic, we continue to monitor and celebrate the positive effects of photobiomodulation for reproductive health and fertility.

LLLT Courses to Improve Egg Quality
The optimum age for promoting fertilisation via LLLT is for women in the mature age group of 35-50, because reproductive cells are more likely to lack cellular energy as a result of the ageing process.
Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT)is recommended as an IVF ancillary treatment, during the lead up to a fertilisation, regardless of whether fertilisation is to be achieved via natural or ART/IVF methods. It prepares the body and reproductive organs, and promotes optimum conditions for conception to take place. In some cases we would recommend LLLT in combination with Ovarian PRP.
The overall general health and age of a patient determines the frequency of treatment, which is normally around 2-3 treatments every 6 weeks. During a period of trying to conceive (either via natural or IVF methods), we base our protocols around a schedule of 6 treatments over a period of 2 weeks from Day 1 to Day 14 of the cycle, and if conception does not take place, to repeat the following month.
