About Advalight
About Us
Founded in 2006, Advalight is the company behind the groundbreaking dual wavelength ADVATx laser.
Based in Copenhagen, Denmark, with sales and service offices in San Diego, CA, Advalight has developed, patented, and commercialised ADVATx for dermatology and aesthetic medicine.
Available in over 50 countries, ADVATx supports dermatological and aesthetic practices through a global network of distributors.
Where It Started
The story of Advalight began when Danish professor Peter Bjerring, MD, presented a core problem of lasers in dermatology to graduate students at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). Dr. Bjerring believed that existing laser technologies were too expensive, required too much maintenance, and caused too many side effects. He saw the need to modernise the field with solid-state laser technology to create yellow wavelength lasers that were simple to use and easy to maintain.
How It Came to Life
Two PhD students at DTU, Jesper L. Mortensen and Morten Thorhauge, had already developed ideas on emitting yellow light using simpler technology, so they took up the challenge.
In 2006, they assembled a team, secured funding, patented the technology, and began exploring the potential of solid-state yellow light lasers in dermatology.
Meanwhile, Dr. Bjerring played a key role in the clinical validation of this new laser technology. The problem had found its solution, and the journey toward laser treatment with better clinical outcomes and enhanced patient comfort had begun.

What our users are saying
Dr. Suneel Chilikuri
My favorite part of this device is that I can treat anyone at any age. For younger patients, I commonly treat acne and small blood vessels. For more mature patients, I treat discoloration due to sun damage as well as fine lines and wrinkles.
Dr. Brooke Jackson
M.D. F.A.D.D (USA)
To be able to offer patients an opportunity to improve their active acne, as well as work on the scarring, is a win-win for many patients and is very attractive from a business owner’s standpoint. To be able to have all of these options in one box that does not have disposable costs is also a win-win.
With a laser, the first thought is, I’ll be in bed for a week, but we don’t have that issue with ADVATx.
Dr. Pablo Naranjo
M.D. (Spain)
Getting the ADVATx laser for my clinic is one of the best investments I’ve ever made.
ADVATx is my favourite laser for addressing 80% of my patients’ skin concerns. It delivers predictable, reproducible results and integrates seamlessly with other energy-based treatments. Best of all, it operates safely and effectively without the need for consumable parts.
After 23 years of practising laser dermatology, I can say that ADVATx really is one of the best lasers I have ever had.
Dr. Peter Bjerring
M.D. (Denmark)
The system is very straightforward
to use. It delivers stable, predictable
performance every time, which allows
me to focus entirely on the patient.
What we appreciate most is how gentle and safe the treatment is for all skin types, a crucial factor in our practice. The results are consistent, and our patients are highly satisfied with the improvements they see in skin tone, texture, and clarity.
ADVATx delivers a comprehensive skin rejuvenation effect, including redness reduction, pigmentation improvement, and refined skin texture.
Dr. Jacqueline M. Luna
M.D. (Philippines)
What I like best about the ADVATx 589 nm / 1319 nm laser is its unique ability to address vascular and pigmentary disorders, inflammatory skin conditions and even photorejuvenation with minimal downtime. Even after three years of using ADVATx, I’m still surprised by how many new indications and uses continue to emerg – it truly is a multifunctional laser for a wide range of dermatologic concerns
Dr. Ruri Pamela
M.D. (Indonesia)
As a dermatologist focused on safe and effective treatments for patients with diverse skin tones, I appreciate how ADVATx combines vascular and rejuvenation wavelengths in a non-ablative approach. It offers versatility for treating redness, acne, and textural issues – without downtime – making it an ideal choice for both medical and aesthetic results.
Dr. Silvia Veronica
M.D. (Indonesia)
As an acne survivor myself, I often wish ADVATx had been available sooner. Acne is a complex inflammatory condition driven by excess sebum, follicular blockage, proliferation of Cutibacterium acnes, and inflammation. ADVATx has the ability to address these pathways simultaneousl, reducing sebaceous activity, calming inflammation, and creating an environment less favorable for C. acnes. It doesn’t just treat acne; it transforms the way we manage it
