What does each light do?Updated 2 years ago

Most of our customers will use 2 main modes – Red LED and Infrared Mode. To put it simply, Red LED – is excellent at stimulating collagen and cellular repair at the very surface of the skin. Infrared light – do that as well by reaching deeper layers. So it makes sense to incorporate both modes and alternate them or use Infrared + Red LED. Keep in mind that that particular function is touch activated, and if you use Red LED you can just hover over the desired treatment areas.

If one of your main concerns is age spots – using Green light can be very effective as it causes to reduce the production of melanin in the cells. It will also help with tiny spider veins or redness as it reduces inflammation.

If you are suffering from inflammatory acne – the Blue light is very effective. It works by disturbing the normal metabolism of the acne-causing bacteria, which is very sensitive to that wavelength of light. Please keep in mind, that it will not however help much in case of hormonal cystic acne.

If you would like to improve lymphatic drainage and have bags under your eyes, or you would like to improve skin hydration and help with reducing redness – Yellow light mode, as well as Cyan, are found to be really effective options for those issues.

Giving a dose of Purple light will activate telomerase activity and improve the cell turnover rate. This will help to accelerate the process of revealing your new youthful layer of the skin. Please make sure to use sunblock regardless of visible light exposure to protect your skin from sun damage.

We also recommend to gently exfoliating your skin and keeping it hydrated.

Think of it as a multi-layered approach, in order to achieve the best results!
