LOVE this Channel! As for LED i love love love them also :) shame about the price of them though... but totally worth it if it's within budget!
Hi Wayne, love your channel too... is there one that you can recommend? Something easily available in Europe. Thank you 🙏🏼
yes! would love to know which one(s) you use, Wayne. I trust your optinion too
Waaaayne!!! It always makes my day when I see your comments on channels I love :)
Hi!! I’ve seen some videos were Wayne recommends the CurrentBody one. Hope it helps! Nice day 🤗
Wow Wayne Goss watches Doctorly?! All my favorites in one place. 🤷
I have been using the omnilux for about 6 months. 10 minutes, four to five days a week. I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!! My dark spots have disappeared and my lips look more firm and lush. In fact, my dermatologist asked if I had lip injections. My overall skin just looks more dewey. Can't wait to see what it looks like a year from now. I am 60. Never too late to start good skin care habits.
This comment made me so happy! I’m glad it’s working out for you and heartened to try one myself
So is it safe if one has sun spots. Thanks
Do you use before, during or after doing your skincare routine?
@@Pedro-do5ui That is a great question. I want to try this.
Can I ask where did you purchase your device? And how much was it?
Love this review ❤️ I been using the SkinGenics LED mask for like 3 months and been noticing very good results. It was also pretty budget friendly and is rechargeable.
I have that one as well 🙌🏽
Can any one post down link please
@@pranikareddy5549 In all this time I hope you managed to figure out that you can simply type it into google or a search engine of your choice to find it.
@amygullette475 @nancyingram700 do you still recommend the skingenics mask? I’m considering getting this one since it’s the only one in my budget at the moment
Is it safe to buy one from amazon???
As a skeptic, I am so grateful for this channel! Straight forward, evidence based information- but also very charming and enjoyable to watch, but without the BS of influencers who are trying to sell you something.
100% agree, coming from someone (me) who knows basically nothing about skin products or usage this channel is amazing. Mostly since I don’t know about the scene I tend to think everything is a gimmick made to con people into spending money. I’m happy to see that there are doctors who at are not bought and pushing product for $ but rather care for their followers/ community. Great duo!
@@warrenRV a link to a product doesn’t mean it’s sponsored. Be smart. They wouldn’t be legally allowed to say it wasn’t sponsored (like they do) if it was. Also if it was sponsored the companies wouldnt want the competing products to be in the video & they’d try give them affiliate codes etc. that would make people more likely to buy it.
They keep it real.
@generalframework That's nice to hear! I just bought a Grossman ful face mask and an eye mask!
Loving your content! As a teenager I am now realising taking good care of your skin is way more important then knowing how to cover it up with makeup.
Very smart of you. I actually had the opposite attitude when I was younger, I thought I'll just cover whatever up with makeup. Your makeup will look a lot better if you have better skin underneath and you will be more confident when you're not wearing makeup.
Girl you learned this early. I wish I had. Take care of your skin and it will take care of you. Remember always wear an SPF 🧴❤️❤️
That is such a good point! I'm going to definitely use that
Don’t forget - good diet and a good night sleep which affects your hormones is maybe even more important than what you put on your skin. Your skin is just a reflection of what is going on on the inside of your body.
I did and im now 32 and have no wrinkles! I use jojobaoil under my eyes at night. Its actually a wax so it does not clog pores
As a researcher myself, I am so grateful that there is a channel that actually lists down the scientific papers, rather than just saying it is supported by science! So thankful Dr. Shah and Dr. Maxfield! I hope and wish that your channel becomes one of the top channels for dermatology!
Too bad no links to the studies in description
@@heidiholtz4382 they’re usually academic journals that you have to pay to read anyway.
My esthetician puts a red/blue led mask on me to treat my cystic acne. It is extremely effective!
Would you happen to know which type or brand ?
Watching this in January 2023 and would love to get an updated report from them on the effectiveness of current models and their prices. Prices have gone waaaaay up since March 2021!
May be a bit late to be answering you but I had the Currentbody one and the connector has developed an issue. So it lasted for around two and a half years. Is that good value for the cost? I don't think so. They will repair if it is withing a 2 year time period but offer nothing in the way of a repair service after that. I think I will be looking for a cheaper one.
They posted an update, the QURE one is the winner.
I was waiting for the roast and now I'm researching which one I want to get....
Boost from light salon is great
I have the Aduro its super
Omnilux. It’s medical grade and FDA approved.
@@DVelez-wz3fe I have the Omnilux face device and love it!
Boost from light salon is amazing. Gothamista, Lisa Eldridge and VioletteFr all use it and have some good videos on it
I was sitting in the dark with my led mask on...
And then my brother came in,he didn't know I was in the house.
When he saw me he literally screamed and fell off the floor as he tried to run.
He thought I was an alien or something 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Eeeeexcellent. Best part is that you were sitting in the dark 🤣
👏👏👏👏👏
Hahhh amazing
Lmao
So glad I found you guys. I sold my expensive EMS device, which hurt me, and am going to sell my expensive microcurrent device. I've gotten the best benefit, even though I am early in to trying out home treatments, with LED. I also just added retinaldehyde and just started following the morning and nighttime routine given in another video with the products that were mentioned. I just received my Dr. Pen and will add that in every six weeks, safely of course. You guys have really saved me. I was going down the rabbit hole of YT videos on devices. Thank you so much for your videos!!!
Thank you for this review I was thinking of investing in one , I am loving the dynamic energy between you two , love and light from Dublin , keep up the good honest work , we need more doctors like you xxx🥰❤️🥰❤️
Thank you for letting us know that red light is safe for dark skin tones!
I've been reading so many studies on wavelength and wound care - it's so fascinating. One study stood out, 60ish participants over 12 wks, control group just washed their face and used blue light therapy for 10 mins. The others washed, used AHA then did blue light therapy. The aha group showed a huge reduction in acne. I have been doing this for 6 months, about twice a week and I can count on one hand the pimples I've had. Take that, cystic acne.
Also, I read a lot of studies for wound care, healing and red light therapy. It's so fascinating how it supports collagen production. After wearing N95s for my 12hr ICU shifts, I do 3 to 5 mins of red light therapy to help my skin maintain its elasticity.
Total humble brag but my skin looks way better than before covid and I wear so many masks. I love knowing there are others out there who geek out over these studies too!
Is there a specific device you recommend?
What's the device that u use?
would love to hear the device as well
This is amazing. I’ve always struggled with cystic acne and the masks haven’t helped. This has been very encouraging.
@@Megan___ 15 yrs with my acne. It's been a wild ride. This isn't my only trick but it's really helped. I was really skeptical at first but after sticking with a schedule, I'm so happy I made this purchase
Love you guys ! Explained so well 😊 im doing my junior residency in dermat and its so nice to see your videos 🤍
Very educational and easy to understand. I like that you actually give recommended products/brands. Such useful Info. Thanks!
When I fell down the skincare rabbit hole, I bought every device imaginable. I was easily swayed by influencers who may or may not have been coerced with free swag. I love your channel. I love that you reference the sources of your studies. I love evidence-based theories and opinions. I love the geeky science behind it. I love that I am able to trust you both implicitly. You don't have longevity here without trust.
Thnks for wrote this dear.. coz my English language is terrible. I Finally found the right words for both of them
What were your favorite skincare gadgets?
I want to see your colection😅👀👋🏾🥲
Thanks! I was one of those followers patiently waiting for this review and it was worth it! Very informative as always... love that you both put in so much work into researching this device for us, much appreciated! 😍🙏🏽
I appreciate SO much that you base your analyses and recommendations on peer-reviewed research. So important in the skincare sphere. Thank you!
How's it going now?♡
Thank you for validating my thoughts on the LED face masks. They’re also so expensive, too!
Yeaahhh!! I was totally expecting you guys to put these things on blast (given how you tend to feel about devices 😉)-as I was watching this video while wearing/ using my LED mask for the first time! I discovered y’all’s channel fairly recently and really appreciate your fun, informative approach to giving skincare advice! Keep putting out great content!
i would love to see each of your skincare routines in future videos! i think it would be really informative to see how dermatologists actually treat and look after their own skin:)
Thanks so much for scouting through all those research papers for us!
I love your honest opinions and giving us the science behind it. I was questioning RFL and now feel good about purchasing a device. Keep up the good work. Thank you!
Out of all of the videos I've watched regarding LED therapy this one has been the most informative 👍
Great review! So helpful. Thank you. I bought the Dr Dennis Gross one and really like it... even like the 3 minutes of closing my eyes and having a chill time. Now I know I need to be consistent!
I am getting a LED light mask immediately! I already do retinol cream and eye cream plus lotion with hyaluronic acid. This is a game changer. The weapon to my wrinkles I need! I know the importance of using moisturizer and retinol in aging skin, so I will still do those plus my face masks I enjoy with a bubble bath.
This is just a new piece to put in my arsenal that will really help. Thank you for the science of this. This is the reason I have not tried one yet. No doctors suggesting it with the backup of the science. Thank you, both of you. I love your channel!!
Oooooh I’ve been waiting for this! Trusted, in depth light therapy review! Thanks guys!
Loooove your video/s! The only issue I have is the :”Talk to your dermatologist.” Unfortunately, in my experience, not many are so proactive and keeping up with trends and newest research, and, so far, whenever I tried to talk to my dermatologist, I’ve been ignored or mocked for my questions. But I guess that’s why I, as well as others, follow your channel so thank you for doing this 😊
Same here, i have hormonal acne and they wont care to help me build a skincare routine, they just offer to prescribe me meds!
I agree, I talked to a dermatologist about ‘age spots’ and he suggested I embrace my gracefully, grrrr.
Yes. Many Dermatologist can be condescending & consider questions pertaining to anti-aging frivolous & a waste of their professional time.
YES you’ve described one major reason why I appreciate this channel and find it to be so refreshing!! Not easy to find a de who’s got it all: dedicated to the scientific method and up on research, respects the psychology and emotions, respects that you’re not a moron with misaligned values (those are subjective, anyway), respects your hard earned money, finds the actual problem and targets a systematic and simple as possible way to treat, AND is efficient at communicating all of those things. Out of everything, the worst is when you’re mocked and not respected. That makes everything else go out the window.
@@mailesmith168 I went to my dermatologist (switching for the next time) a month ago with three problems: toenail trauma, hyperpigmentation and yearly mole checkup. She only focused on the last one. Once she pronounced them all ok, she didn’t care for the “esthetic” problems I have. She tried to say goodbye and leave the room to see next patient twice and I had to stop her and ask about those, even though I told her at the beginning that I have more questions and which. I was in there for less than 10 mins. She told me to wear sunscreen 😂 (I do that already)
Yes I’ve been waiting for this one!!
Best video I've found presenting study highlights! Thank you!
Thank you for this review! I invested in the Dr. Dennis Gross mask (and while the strap is a pain), I love using it and have seen an improvement in my skin! So happy it has your stamp of approval!
New sub here. Great information. I appreciate the time you two have put into researching and sharing data. It make this channel more credible, beyond the degrees you two have. Thank you.
Thnak you for taking the time to review this! Trememdously helpful!
Excellently presented, you both really clarified things...thank you so much!
Look how proud Dr Maxfield is with that hack! So cute 😭
Thank you so much taking the time out of your busy schedule reviewing the LED Masks Trend! This was informative and educational video, especially on what BLUE light and RED light does for us if we purchase a LED Mask for us to do at home instead seeing our esthetician/dermatologist's office. ALOT people get so influenced by celebrities, influencers, on CZcams, IG, FB, Tik Tok, who are non licensed dermatologists marketing these masks that the audience will think if it works for them it work on themselves. Everyone has different skin, no one is the same. Again thank you for this review, appreciate it so much! Have a great one!
I was looking into red light therapy for my grandmother who has severe back pain and it just seemed so amazing for all kinds of things that I'm looking for myself as well. I haven't begun my research into blue light but thank you for the info as far as it not being good for pigmentation. I have moles, freckles, kp... Don't need more issues. Thanks again for all you do!
Do you mean infrared? That can help with pain.
@@spookylittlebat5208 No, she meant red light therapy which helps with pain...it's often combined with what you mentioned but she meant what she said. They even use RED light at gyms to recover after a workout from muscle soreness/increase bloodflow/reduces inflamation...I can't give you all the info there's a million studies you can read yourself lol.
I really do have good success with CELLUMA. it helps immensely. The near-infra-red light helps activate the mitochondria to promote cell healing and renewal. It really does help.
Cool video - my wife got one of these but hasn't been using it, so I've started using it! Good to know that there is science behind it and it can work!
Has it worked for you ?
I jumped on this train years ago with the Baby Quasar hand held. Now I’m on the hunt for an “affordable” (yeah, the good ones are pricey) mask. I also dermaplane regularly and it’s cool to hear it’s helping my LED work. Thanks for making this video!
Ooh I have used the baby quasar for decades, did u know it makes deep warts and skin tags fall off? No surgery needed❤️
I love you guys so much! I love that you digest and present the research for us--it's so helpful to make informed decisions!
Yes, that is what I am thinking too. Researching the true causes and how dermatologists explain it and what is a waste and what is not a waste. There is much information out there. That they actually take the time and go through the scientific papers: awesome, who has time to study those when other health issues are also happening at the same time?
Hey folks! Just wanted to share my own experience with red light therapy after diving into the research you've discussed. I’ve been using a red light panel from Future Form Official, a company based in Norway. Honestly, the results have been pretty impressive. I've struggled with chronic back pain for years, and regular sessions with this panel have really made a difference in reducing my pain and inflammation.
What sold me was not just the effectiveness but also the price point - it's surprisingly affordable compared to other options out there. The panel is well-built and powerful, and I felt like I got a lot of value for what I paid. I’ve been recommending it to friends who are looking for similar relief without breaking the bank. Thanks for all the informative content here; it really helped me make a confident choice!
I love that you brought in the conversation around deeper skin tones and how products impact our skin
I love this video so much!! Please do a part 2 on the other benefits of LED masks~ I've seen some with other colors like yellow, green, and white. I liked that you guys addressed blue/red that are on both ends of the spectrum, but I'm curious about the other colors and how they would benefit the skin!
Yes I would love this too. Particularly yellow light :)
@@alhanton Yes yellow light, I'm waiting for that too
Yes would love a review on the different light colors
@@sravyamangipudi2800 It's suppose to work on headaches and migraines.
I have the OBAA LED BEAUTY MASK . It has 7collors. I've had mine for about 7 months it didn't come w/ instructions so I looked them up on Google. OBAA is the brand name of mine. It's very simple it's like putting on a pair of glasses I got it on Morning Save & it was $ 39. I've seen them on sale again & it was $29. I love it because it's very light weight & you don't have to keep it plugged in. So I can walk around with it on. Check it out Ladies & men again it's called ( OBAA ) Happy Hunting to all Oh & it works Great.
❤️💙💚🧡💜🩵🤍All the colors in my LED FACE MASK. Bye🙋 Have a Blessed 🙏day Susie Q.
Very informative! I am happy with the one i got so far, good to know that people with hyperpigmentation should avoid the blue light. Thanks!
Good! I have the Omnilux and like it so far. I also got the LightStim, which can be used all over the body. Like them both and appreciated this excellent review.
I did my research and love my LED mask! Thanks for giving your valuable insights!
Excellent video guys! I have been researching LED lights for the past couple of years and just recently purchased a big panel for my home! I read very similar studies which, was why I was willing to pay a lot of money for a professional panel, but it's always nice to hear that experts confirm the research too!
How much was it and which one did you buy?
Would also like to know 😚
I love how you explained the functionality backed with the science behind it. Your videos are absolutely the best about skin care.
Just found them, they are so good. (Ignored suggested posts by them for months. Regretting, but now I’m glad I’m on board.) So refreshing.
Thank you for evidence-based practice and information. Your recommendations are backed by science. I’m in the medical field and appreciate products which are scientifically reviewed, good or bad. You present facts both negative and positive without pushing for certain products and leave the decision to the consumer.
You are the best people to review . Thank you for investing your time .
I love how Dr. Shah just kept the device on for a while knowing how cool he looked with it.
Thanks for the great content as always.
Bonus: it is the only form of skincare where you can simultaneously pretend you are a Tron character 🤖
I pretend to be a stormtrooper
You guys are the best! Is the Dr Dennis Gross mask your favorite or is there something better? Was looking at Omnilux. I don’t have static wrinkles yet - do you think LED could help preventively or should I wait? Thanks!
I truly appreciate all the time and energy you invest into basically spoon feeding us interesting, relevant and useful information, while keeping it fun. Thank you thank you! 💜
You made your account in 2006???
Great info. I had a free red light facial from my friend who has her own beauty salon, she's been wanting me to experience. Now I need to buy a home mask and am doing the due diligence research; this was extremely helpful. I am 75, so, anything to help reverse the aging process; I am very cautious, so just want to be well informed. My skin is healthy, however, those unforgiving bright lights in gyms are sooo revealing.
Pro-tip: red light has been proven to treat an array of different kinds of pain, so if you have dental pain, or pain from TMJ, your infrared face mask will help.
Thank you
Ty
Omg thank you for sharing. I’m buying a mask when my paycheck comes in, and I have terrible TMJ. Can’t wait to try this!
I was almost going to buy a red light treatment for my face. But I will dig out my red light device I already purchased for muscle pains and test it out if it still works.
@@rocketta.chique5761 let me know how it worked. I was undergoing orthodontic treatment and found red light to help.
Can we just stop and acknowledge how beautiful they both are❤️❤️❤️❤️
Inside and out!
My thoughts exactly.
They are a wealth of info and definitely some great eye candy!!
Thought the same.
;)
I just watched your video and it was very well done! I own the Dr Gross limited edition black mask.
I have figured out a way around the strap problem. Once you get the mask adjusted so it fits comfortably and is not too loose, take the ends of the straps and slip them into the other side of the buckle and pull tight. This will secure it firmly and it will no longer fall out. I also use tanning bed goggles to prevent any eye damage. Thank you for your great video!
I have watched SOOO many of your TikTok’s, but I finally made it to your CZcams! As an Esthetician student (soon to graduate!), I really appreciate all the knowledge you guys share!
I was wondering if you guys could talk about professional machines (like LED, hydra facial/other microdermabrasion, etc.) and discuss 1. are they worth the money (for a professional & for the client) 2. if the most expensive ones are really the best/necessary 3. of course it’s best to avoid the amazon dupes, but are there more affordable options that are safe and deliver results?
I know this might be a more targeted video to skincare professionals… and maybe it’s something you do in a patreon type setting for licensed estheticians?? It might not appeal to your entire audience. But as a soon to be esthetician, the deals on these types of machines are tempting. Especially when the price tags on top of the line machines are so high. But of course I don’t want to get something that is unsafe, or won’t give my clients results. I could really use some professional input - especially from somebody who isn’t trying to sell me something. Lol. Thanks guys.
I love how Dr. Maxfield say "here we go!", don´t know why, just love it
Because he looks so adorable when he says it.
Me too! So cute yet boyish! He is so very handsome!
My inner science nerd for so happy with this video!! I found your channel recently and I’ve been binge watching your videos more than Netflix!!! You guys rock! The OmniLux LED mask is really good
What kind of results have you seen from Omnilux LED? I’m tossing whether to get this or Dr Dennis one
@@ZaneSkye I haven’t been using it long enough to see any results to be honest plus I’ve had to stop everything due to a bad reaction to a chemical peel. But you can watch Hot and Flashy’s videos on the OmniLux…that’s how I decided to buy it?
Hello @zane skye which one did you get?
Thank you for the mention of PMLE. I’d been considering this type of device and will have to be very cautious.
Appreciate having this information before I purchase. 🙏 Thank you!
Really glad to have found your channel! Love the evidence based explanation. Thank you for the education. I’ve already got my cart filled for my perfect skin care routine. Looking forward to your LED treatment for hair loss!
I really enjoyed the video and love that you properly explain the science behind it. I'm looking for something to reduce rosacea symptoms rather than anti aging or acne. Can you tell me whether LED masks would be a great benefit and if yes which colour light? Thank you!
needed this. It’s nice to have this told to you to ease the mind at night ha. blue light once a month. And red light 3-4times a week max. :)
Thank you for your approval, tomorrow is my birthday and I had already planned on buying the Dr. Gross Mask❤❤❤❤
I have been using the Dr. Dennis Gross DRx Spectra Lite (TM) Face Ware Pro for three weeks now and I highly recommend it. Every day. Three minutes. I've used red/blue/combo. I close my eyes and relax for those three minutes. My skin looks so much better in such a short time! And the strap adjustment is not at all hard to figure out.
Very encouraging, thank you
Could you do a video on supplements to boost collagen internally? For example hyaluronic acid, pycnogel, collagen and other supplements that work directly and indirectly.
P
Love watching your videos. Very good advice. Was sceptical about LED masks. Feel reassured now. Thank you.
I get the Red light treatment after my hydrafacial. It definitely helps reduce the redness. I never had acne but the anti-aging is appealing. Thanks for the video.
Yes, heck, it might help with other skin conditions too
First of all, thank you so much for spreading all those solid scientific facts among your audience! Is there any chance you could do a video on RF home devices too?
Love all your videos! So informative 😀 So which is a good mask without breaking the bank? Any others besides the ones talked about or listed? Would love to try but $400 range is not in my budget - thanks!
this was super informative, thank you for going into the science and including references!
I just ordered the Pure Daily Care LED mask with the neck extension. It was less than 200 dollars and it is soft. Cant wait to try it. I have been using a handheld with great results!
I'm really glad to see definitive answers, but... My skin doesn't wrinkle so much as sag (double chin, etc.) Would the red light treatment help tighten the skin (maybe through the effect on collagen)? Or is there something else I should try?
I've been told that my face looks brighter recently. Thanks to you both, I only use gental cleanser, niacinamide, moisturizer and sunscreen; they are around $30 in total. I'm going to try retinol next. 🤩🤩🤩
I know the feeling! I recently put salyccilac (?) acid back into my skin care routine and I know it is too soon to actually see major benefits, but my skin in general feels much nicer
Which cleanser did u buy?
Oh girl. Retinol is the game changer, retinol is the Be All. Go forth immediately and load up. Sunscreen though!!!
@@cussininthekitchen8224 how don you apply before or after your led mask
@@johanncalvillo3398 I haven’t used an LED mask, but I would think you wouldn’t want to use an acid or retinoids before or after. Retinol is just amazing for your skin when used in a routine at night. If you use it during the day use a sunscreen and stay out of the sun 👍🏻
Thank you so much for this info Dr. Maxfield and Dr. Shah.
Thank You doctors for all the information provided. Very appreciated!
OMG OMG so excited for this topic!!!
😍
Docs, would you advice to use this while skin care products are on the skin or before applying skin care products? Btw thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedules making your vids.
I got the Dennis Gross Mask and I actually had quite a good effect in reducing my acne. Got lucky and picked it up during the Sephora sale and got it at 20% off. As someone dealing with adult acne, I feel it's worth investing in it along with my retinols.
If you have acne, go low carb. Acne is caused by high insulin.
Can you update us? It’s been a year since your comment and I’m thinking about getting one :)
It also says it has a shelf life of 3 years, does that mean it can’t be used after that?
Thanks for another great video. I have the Dr. Gross device and have used it for a couple of years now. I love it and as for the straps I removed them all together😀
I also removed the straps and just put it on while laying down.
I can attest to blue light can cause hyperpigmentation. I am African American and fortunately do not suffer from hyperpigmentation on a regular basis, but tried out the Neutrogena acne LED pen, and was left with a dark spot. It fortunately faded in time but just a cautionary tale.
Oh dang thank you for sharing this information.
@@sophien5416 No problem I was glad I didn't purchase the full face mask which was being heavily promoted at that time.
@@MsLayila If I'm not mistaken, they had actually recalled their full face mask because over a lawsuit with people with pre existing eye conditions
I am so confused because it's the red LED that is supposed to cause hyperpigmentation (not the blue) and the green or yellow is supposed to treat it. I wish someone can clarify this officially.
@@stephanie-annmorgan8489 no the blue caused hyper pigmentation
Yaaaaiii!!!
Have been waiting for this one 🙌🏻
Ahh we got some many questions about this - felt that a review was definitely in order
Thank you for this thorough video. I have already been using the Mito Pro red light panel for both skin health, sleep and arthritis. I have seen improvement in my skin. My aches and pains are less severe. I sleep great. I love it. I'm glad to have your approval though. Thank you.
Hi! I’m thinking about getting the mito pro 300. Do you still like the device/would you recommend?
I have the Mito pro 1500. I use it everyday unless I am out of town. I love it. I has helped my rosacea, joint pain, sleep. My son injured himself during rock climbing and the light panel helped him recover. @@Aesthetic_Voyager
I love love love these two together it’s magic .. great videos guys
I appreciate the honest, non affiliated, educational videos :)
One year later and I’m back… researching for my 30th bday gift …. Time for the acne marks to go…
I recently discovered your channel and have been binge watching. You guys are so informative - thank you!
That’s exactly why I like following up my microneedling facials with an LED session for my clients. At first I thought I was imagining the results but it keeps working so nicely
can you do red light therapy the day before the micro needling procedure?
@@Amb3r1981 I believe the intensity of the lights prevents it from being a dangerous procedure even if you were doing it right before the microneedeling procedure. But I’d like to learn more
Thank you for another great video, you two are awesome doctors.

Absolutely LIVE your channel and unbiased reviews! As a professional aesthetician since 2007, I know first hand that all devices and products are not backed by science!
This was SO helpful! You guys are awesome, thank you!!!!
What a fantastic and explanatory video! Love it! Love you guys!
Appreciated that you took the time to include darker skin tones in the video! Not everything in skin care is suitable for a darker skin tone. Maybe you could make a video about something about darker skin tones! :)
I remember these red lights in the health spas in the 70s and 80s. The older ladies claimed it helped with pain and good for the skin. I am WoWed that there is scientific studies to back up the claims from them ladies. Now I have to get one to see if it can help both in aging and arthritis.
Great research/ review. You guys broke it down simply.
Thanks so much for this. I had another dermatologist recommend Erbium Yag but Wayne (above) said he wouldn't do it again. So I was looking for something less drastic, less expensive to try first. Red light!
Thank you this was a well researched video. Could you talk about infrared light and red light as it relates to hair growth? I think that would be a fascinating discussion as well
i used to own a LED machine with also infrared andit used to make my eyebrows fall out. When i stopped using it they came back and when i tried it again they fell out again.
