Product Details

The LightForce® XLi 40W Therapy Laser offers the highest power and fastest treatments in the LightForce® lineup. With up to 40 watts of Class IV power, the XLi treats larger, deeper areas in less time, making it ideal for high-volume practices and performance-driven recovery programs.

Equipped with real-time dosing feedback and a Smart Handpiece, the XLi guides clinicians toward optimal treatment settings automatically, reducing guesswork and ensuring safe, consistent outcomes. Influence® Technology customizes light delivery for each patient, while the Empower IQ™ system, Perfect Protocol™ software, and built-in training resources make operation seamless and intuitive.

Six quick-release treatment heads and LightForce® exclusive Massage Ball Technology provide unmatched flexibility for both targeted and broad applications. Built for durability with premium fiber optics, the XLi is engineered to perform under the demands of elite clinical environments.

Indications: 
Deep Tissue Laser Therapy® is used to treat painful muscles and joints associated with acute and chronic soft tissue injuries. It can also relieve pain and stiffness associated with arthritis and is able to increase localized blood flow. These factors make therapeutic laser a sensible modality choice for post-activity recovery.

Clinically Studied to Help in the Treatment of:
Neck Pain¹
Low Back Pain²
Shoulder Pain³,⁴
Elbow Pain⁵
TMJ ⁶,⁷
Arthritis⁸
Plantar Fasciitis⁹
Sports Injuries¹⁰

Features & Benefits

Empower IQ™ Delivery System:
The Empower IQ™ Delivery System redefines laser therapy with smart, responsive technology. The Smart Handpiece provides real-time dosing feedback, while the quick-disconnect heads and ultra-durable, extra-long fibers make treatments faster and more consistent.


Influence® Technology:
Influence® Technology automatically adjusts treatment parameters based on each patient's condition, body type, and skin characteristics. In-depth protocol settings provide recommended parameters on treatment heads and power levels to aid in clinician confidence and reduce learning time.



Exclusive Massage Ball Technology:
The patented LightForce® massage ball enables on-contact laser therapy, improving absorption while allowing clinicians to simultaneously perform soft tissue mobilization. Its design enhances laser penetration, reduces light loss, and helps improve overall comfort.

Power:
Our highest power offering with a continuous wave setting, the 40W XLi enables clinicians to treat more tissue in less time. The XLi features our Smart Handpiece and two specially designed treatment heads to accommodate higher power output.



Time with Patients:
LightForce® Lasers have an average treatment time of 4–7 minutes, dependent on area and power used to treat. Higher power allows for faster treatment times when dosing requirements are the same. These treatment times allow clinicians to integrate laser therapy seamlessly into care plans, maximizing the time available to treat.
