Brain Photobiomodulation is a safe and non-invasive intervention to improve and maintain cognitive and mental health. There is a large body of evidence showing its efficacy against neurodegeneration and mental disorders. The WeberBrain® is the most sophisticated technology of this kind and will become available in January 2026.

Imagine the WeberBrain® directing a stream of finely tuned infrared light across the surface of the skull, allowing the photons to slip through the cranial bone where they are taken up by mitochondria in the cortical layers of the brain. With that, mitochondrial function improves and regenerative biological processes begin. Not only does cellular energy (ATP) rise immediately, but a cascade of downstream effects unfolds. Blood flow to the brain and oxygenation increase, the glymphatic system clears toxins and metabolic debris more efficiently, oxidative stress and neuroinflammation decrease, and the brain´s overall capacity to regenerate, change, and thrive improves significantly. For patients, this means clearer cognition, better emotional regulation, and long-term support for healthy brain aging. A more comprehensive explanation of the effects of brain photobiomodulation can be found here.
Dozens of human studies have reported meaningful clinical benefits of brain photobiomodulation across a wide range of conditions – from neurodegenerative disorders, mental disorders, Autism spectrum disorder, patients suffering from brain injuries, to enhancing the cognitive performance of healthy individuals. Because it helps maintain the core processes essential for brain health in an optimal state, brain photobiomodulation is also emerging as a powerful tool for preventing age-related or disease-related decline in brain function.
In addition to its efficacy, research consistently highlights the intervention’s strong safety profile and its remarkable ease of use, even in home settings.
Weber Medical´s new flagship product – the WeberBrain® – now brings the entire field to the next technological level. Its design reflects the company´s experience gained in more than two decades of research in medical light technologies.
While many devices on the market rely on broadly scattered LED light, the WeberBrain® uses only high-precision laser light — concentrated into a beam under one millimeter in diameter by a sophisticated lens system. Laser light maintains coherence and directionality, allowing deeper and more predictable penetration into neural tissue.
Another technical innovation further enhances the journey of the laser light toward the cortical brain structures: It is delivered through conically shaped ends — the “light fingers,” as we call them — which minimize blockage caused by hair.
To activate multiple biological pathways simultaneously, the WeberBrain® uses three complementary wavelengths with distinct absorption characteristics in brain tissue: 650 nm, 808 nm, and 1064 nm.
A precise fit for any head shape or size is achieved through fully adjustable sliders.
And one final distinction sets the WeberBrain® apart: it is available in two versions — one for home use and one designed specifically for medical practice.
The home-use model offers intuitive, effortless handling for anyone and carries a total of 228 diodes.
The medical version enables professionals to tailor treatment parameters across different brain regions with exceptional precision and features 684 diodes.
Pre-order now. Deliveries begin in January 2026.
