Works great! 3 weeks with red/yellow/blue/orange LED light has reduced my acne about 60%.

Product was very expensive, cost over 500 euros. Risky one, but im glad it worked out.

Definitely worth to try at least.

I have the Evis MD platinum blue light. It runs $200 on amazon, around $100 on ebay and I found mine at TJ maxx for $100. Don't need to buy replacement cartridges, just plug it in and go. I haven't been diligent enough to notice remarkable results though but most people that have give it good reviews Posted Image Blue light is for treating acne, red light is for anti-aging, supposed to help with wrinkles.

i've been looking into buying one, not sure whether i want to take the chance in buying the such expensive product. do you know if its possible for it to cause an even worse breakout? if so, i'll look for similar products...

It definitely won't make your acne worse, if anything it just won't help at all. A better way of controlling bacteria causing acne is taking a probiotic, one with 30 billion organisms, pretty much cured my acne. I got my blue light at a big discount but it's not worth paying full price for.

I managed to land one for $29 on ebay! Im really hoping this helps... i've been on green tea and i see a difference since i started drinking it 2 weeks ago

I'm looking into getting one of these lights too. I think I would need a smaller one though that lets me watch tv or something on the side. I don't really care if it takes half an hour to cover my whole face but I really dont wanna wear glasses with this because I know that I'll never use it then.

Do you guys have a suggestion?
I was looking at the Lumiport since it has both blue and red and is pretty small.

Buying one of those led bulbs looks pretty good too but i'm not sure if I could find a good lamp to put it into since, again, I don't wanna wear glasses for that :P so I would have to finda lamp where the bulb fits in perfect and where no light escapes on the sides.

Do you guys have an update on those LED bulbs? How do you use them? Do you actually just soot in front of them for half an hour every day?

I'm building my own from 30x415nm, 30x660nm, 30x880nm 3Watt LED's all powered by a 650w PSU.

It's taking ages though. Posted Image

I know you need 10-30 mW/cm^2 of power. High-powered LED's are needed.

 

"Medical grade" UV LED's can cost £100+ each from UK sources if money is no object.
