Device hematoma is common complication of pacemaker procedures. Hematoma increases infection risk, causes patient discomfort, and may require surgical evacuation. We present a case of pacemaker pocket hematoma treated with a combination of phototherapy devices (X39®, Glutathione®, Carnosine®, from LifeWave Inc), achieving complete resolution in 6 days. A survey among experts found that healing time was 500% faster than anticipated. These adhesive patches contain natural compounds that reflect back infrared frequencies emitted by the skin. Biologic activity includes elevation of glycyl-l-histidyl-l-lysine (GHK), having a plethora of effects. This non-pharmacologic wellness device is used conveniently to expedite wound healing.
