Fix Your Acne Issues With The Best Blue Light Therapy Devices!

Light is crucial to our sustenance. All of us know this fact. Plants, animal, human beings…..all of us need it. We always allude sunlight to our health when ever the subject of light is  discussed. Is it the only health rejuvenating beam available for us?

Have we ever thought that apart from sunlight other natural lights are available? and do they confer any health benefits?

What we ought to know is, that when light is split it produces several monochromatic lights (light of a single wavelength and hence a single colour).. We all have studied in school that light is a mixture of different colours that make up the spectrum of white light.

Of late science has discovered benefits of monochromatic lights in health and healing. One of the break through is ‘blue light’ and its effects on our skin.

In the year 2000 independent research by the Imperial College of Science Technology and Medicine at Hammersmith Hospital in London determined that 15 minutes a day of light therapy provided an effective method to cure mild to moderate acne. In October of 2002 the American Academy of Dermatology published that “Light gets at the core of what causes acne eruptions: P. acnes, the bacterial responsible for causing acne inflammation, pumps out tiny molecules called porphyrins.

Research says:

Blue light, particularly in the wavelength range of 405–470 nm, has attracted increasing attention due to its intrinsic antimicrobial effect without the addition of exogenous photosensitizers. Blue light therapy is a clinically accepted approach for Propionibacterium acnes infections. (NCBI)

Blue light therapy confers various benefits like : 

  • Destroys the bacteria causing acne.
  • Physicians affirm that blue light therapy is absolutely safe for all ages and can be used on a daily basis.
  • Chemical free and clinically proven method
  • Relatively quick and easy, blue light acne treatments do not cause pain or discomfort for most patients during exposure to the light, and they can also resume their normal daily activities right away following a treatment session.

The good news about ‘blue light therapy’ is that you don’t need to rush to professionals for treatment. This can be easily done at home using any high quality and user friendly device. A study published in the journal of clinical and aesthetic dermatology supports the claim of ‘self treatment’ with ‘blue light’ and says: ‘Self-applied blue light treatment was reported to be easy and safe to use.’ (NCBI
