Cons:
You can't miss a day or else acne will flare up a bit.
Pros:
Bought for two sons with moderate acne. Both continued with Duac and Differin while using lamp. The lamp markedly improved their skin, but has not totally cleared it. Greatly reduced cystic acne.
Cons:
As with any treatment, have to use everyday. Wish my kids were more consistent.
Pros:
I ad this done when I was about 15 and my skin became perfect! Smooth clear and even. The ONLY thing to ever work! It's magic! lol I highly recommend it I finally had confidence in myself and a much higher self esteem
Cons:
Its been about 5 yrs later and my skin is acting up again but only a quater as bad as it was originally so ive booked myself in next week to have a few more treatments. It makes ur skin a little sensitive just after BUT ITS WORTH IT!!!
Pros:
Simple to use and seems to be very effective as preventative care, as well as helping some deep pimples heal sooner. I use the blue light to prevent and treat pimples and occasionally the purple. Because it's light-based, there are no reactions.
Cons:
Small area of tip means a long time to treat your entire face. The red light doesn't reduce inflamation for me as descirbed.
Pros:
clearer skin, less acne.
Cons:
kind of straining on my back to sit there and lean forwards towards the light. i got impatient a lot too. sometimes i forgot, and if i missed 2 days in a week i'd break out. and at first i got headaches from the bright light.
Pros:
Doesn't hurt. Can get your money back if it doesn't work.
Cons:
Did not do anything for my face at all. and could potentially be causing an INCREASE in acne.
Pros:
Among one of the best acne products I've used in the past 16 years. Does not, by itself, cause dryness.
Cons:
The 15-minute sit (just veg' out to some music - it goes by quickly). Generally not recommended for cystic acne, but read on...
Pros:
Very relaxing. Really clears skin! In the beginning, it might make your face dry but when your face gets used to it, your face is always soft!
Cons:
The device is really big. You have to sit for 15 minutes but it is good for relaxation and mental health. Won't do anything for clogged pores or blackheads.
Pros:
Works at least as well on surface acne as Dan's regiman, and is less harsh to the skin. In the long run the total cost of ownership of this vs. soaps, lotions, treatments, etc. will be much less.
Cons:
Does not prevent deep cystic acne. Does not cover sides of your face very well. You may need more than 15 minutes daily in order to cover your whole face. No way to travel with this thing as it's about 14" x 20" x 4". Goggles are uncomfortable.
Pros:
Really has helped with my hormonal acne on chin...seems to keep the "bug ones" away. I love it and will continue to use it in the future.
Cons:
I get a little red right after the treatment--but think it may be too close to my face...my nose touches it?!
Pros:
visibly reduces acne about 80% if you are consistent.
