Lumie Clear Acne Light Therapy Treatment System

Product Description

The Easy Way to Treat AcneLumie Clear is a compact hand-held LED light therapy device clinically proven to treat mild to moderate acne. It combines blue light to attack the bacteria that causes acne with red light that soothes inflammation and heals the skin. It is clean and simple to use. Either hold it next to your skin for 15 minutes of intensive treatment or attach it to the adjustable stand for a longer session on a wider area. Drugs and creams can have unpleasant side effects and with prolonged use become less effective at controlling the condition. Lumie Clear has no side effects at all, is not inconvenient and invasive, and is easy to use. It can also be used safely in conjunction with other treatments. Unlike drugs and creams Lumie Clear is a one-off expense that can actually work out cheaper over time.

The Study of Blue-Red Light Therapy for AcneAcne often appears to improve after spending time in the sun. Research into the effects of light as a treatment have focused on two parts of the light spectrum: blue light (415nm), which attacks the Propionibacterium acnes bacteria, and red light (660nm), which is known to soothe inflammation and promote healing. Leading dermatologist Dr Tony Chu of Hammersmith Hospital studied these effects on over 100 patients. Those using combination blue-red light therapy saw a real difference after four weeks. At twelve weeks their skin was, on average, 76% less inflamed and 56% clearer. Lumie Clear has been developed with input from Dr Chu's research team.

Recommended Treatment TimesTreatment times for Lumie Clear depend on your distance from the lights. If you hold Lumie Clear next to your skin, you need only use it 15 minutes per day. To cover a wider area, for example to treat your back and shoulders, you can fix the light head onto its base and shine it on your skin for an hour from the recommended distance. The combination of red and blue light saves you having to undergo two separate treatment sessions.

Lumie Clear features a built-in timer so that you can accurately measure your treatment sessions. The hands-free stand allows you to get on with other things while the light is working on your skin. Goggles are also included, though you'll only need them if the light is shining at your eyes. The light head folds down into the base for compact storage and the whole unit is small enough for you to take it with you when you go away.

Costumer Critiques

I have been making use of the Lumie Clear Device for my adult acne for 8 weeks. I am 38 and have suffered from mild - moderate acne because my mid 20's.

I have tried lots of points over the years such as retin a, proactiv, salicylic acid, birth control pills, varied creams and lotions all with tiny of no impact (With the exception of Roaccutane which did entirely clear up my skin, but gave me anxiety attacks for a further 3 years and made my hair genuinely thin so I wouldnt threat taking them once more.

Continually the optimist and willing to try something to improve my skin I signed up for a 12 week trial of the Lumie and boy am I glad that I did

My worst locations are my forehaed and suitable lower cheek/chin so have used the Lumie pressed suitable up against my skin on each and every of these areas for 15 mins daily. It has a timer and automatically switches off when the suggested time of 15 mins is over, which is wonderful as Ive fallen asleep a handful of instances with it resting on my forehead.

Lumie say that most consumers notice a distinction in just 4 weeks with good results in 8-12 weeks. I noticed an improvement right after 2 weeks of use - my skin was less red and spots were fading a lot quicker than regular. I did nonetheless get new spots (But no exactly where near as countless as usual) up till 6 weeks of use but the last couple of weeks I haven't had any new breakouts at all.

I have even been able to swap my make up from the heavy camouflage covermark foundadtion that I have worn for years to light coverage Bare Minerals powder foundation.

I can honestly say that I am over the moon with the results I have had from utilizing Lumie Clear and hope that continuing to use it keeps the acne at bay.

I have been employing Lumie Clear for ten weeks now and I am genuinely pleased with the outcomes so far.

After trying remedies with unpleasant side effects from antibiotics and robust gels such as Retin-A to birth manage pills due to the fact my early teens, none of them have had any lengthy lasting effect. I am 21 now and soon after reading about the positive effects of the blue-red light therapy I decided to try Lumie Clear. I acquire it especially easy to use, incorporating it into my everyday routine, whilst i'm reading books or watching Television. I hold it pressed against my skin for the 15 minutes the timer provides you, everyday on each side of my face as they are the worst locations.

I began to notice a genuine distinction right after three weeks, with less spots appearing and had calmer feeling skin. Right after ten weeks my skin continues to boost, I have noticed considerably of the redness of scars from old spots have practically disappeared. If I do get any spots they seem to final a a lot shorter time than they did ahead of, nevertheless I am not acquiring any substantial breakouts considering that I began making use of it and can now wear substantially less foundation and really feel confident doing so.

I can not think the improvement Lumie Clear has made to my skin and I only wish Lumie Clear had been offered for the duration of my teens! I would absolutely advise Lumie Clear to any person with mild to moderate acne from the fantastic outcomes i've observed so far!
