Several ground-breaking studies recently conducted by several medical groups in the United States and Europe have found that narrow-band, high-intensity light in the blue wavelength range (405 nm to 420 nm) can be a safe, gentle and effective approach to treating mild to moderate inflammatory acne. Blue Acne Light Facial Treatment machines help you achieve a clear, luminous complexion all in the comfort of you own home!

Unlike some acne treatments, blue light at specific wavelengths does not produce damaging ultraviolet (UV) rays which have been shown to cause skin damage, does not result in dryness or discomfort associated with topical acne medications and does not cause any known side effects. The of Blue Acne Light Facial Treatment include:
- 100% Natural and Non-invasive
- Drug-free With Zero Adverse Side Effects
- Safe For All Ages and Safe For Daily Use
- Painless
- Easily Self-administered In Your Own Home

| How Can Blue Acne Light Facial Treatment Help My Acne?: |
Specific wavelengths stimulate specific responses in the body. Blue wavelengths penetrate the skin and produce "singlet" oxygen which effectively destroys acne-causing bacteria. It is effective in treating acne vulgaris, showing reductions in both comedones and inflammatory acne lesions. LED therapy is quickly becoming known in the cosmetic industry as one of the most effective and non-invasive ways to help rejuvenate and take the skin back to its natural state. The results of Blue Acne Light Facial Treatment can vary by individual and skin type, are gradual, and will not just occur over night. Continued daily application however, will provide more cumulative long-term, lasting results.
The FDA recently approved narrow-band, high-intensity Blue Light for treating acne. Now widely advertised, it is probably the best-known light therapy for acne treatment and Blue Acne Light Facial Treatments can be performed on any area of the body. During treatment, precise wavelengths of light energy are selectively delivered through a handheld wand containing several LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) to the targeted area. Once delivered, this light energy is absorbed by the targeted bacteria that produces the inflammation associated with acne known as Propionobacterium Acnes, or "P. acnes". P. acnes releases porphyrins, which are naturally occurring molecules in the body. When porphyrins absorb certain wavelengths of light, free radical damage is produced which destroys the bacteria. Without P. acnes around to cause inflammation, acne clears up. Porphyrins have been shown to absorb light best in the blue wavelength range (400 nm to 430 nm). This blue light output is a different wavelength than skin-damaging ultraviolet light, and has not been proven to cause treatment side effects including dryness, redness or pain. |

| The History of Light Therapy: |
Light therapy is the direct application of optimal wavelengths of light to achieve therapeutic benefits. Originally discovered by NASA about 40 years ago to stimulate plant growth, LED (Light Emitting Diode) Therapy was found to encourage cellular metabolism, accelerate the repair and replenishment of damaged skin cells, as well as stimulate the production of collagen - the basis for healthy, clear, youthful-looking skin. The technology was found to encourage the healing of injuries incurred by astronauts while in space. Even in a zero gravity environment, where cell growth is normally very slow, light energy was shown to stimulate the metabolism in muscle and bone as well as skin and subcutaneous tissue.
Over the last several years , the field of cosmetology introduced a variety of new treatments which rely on the therapeutic effects of light at wave-lengths between visible light and infrared. LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) of various wavelengths, have shown strong efficacy for the treatment of inflammatory acne, rosacea, wrinkles, sun damage, and uneven skin tone. |

| Blue Acne Light Facial Treatment - Research, Studies and Media Articles: |
Recent studies have revealed that Blue Acne Light Facial Treatment for acne effectively promotes the creation of purifying oxygen molecules within the skin. These powerful molecules have the ability to quickly and effectively destroy acne-causing bacteria resulting in clearer, brighter skin. Unlike some acne treatments, blue light does not contain harmful ultraviolet (UV) light which can damage skin, does not result in dryness or discomfort associated with topical medications and does not cause any known side effects.
According to a report presented to the American Academy of Dermatology, just two 15-minute exposures per week for a period of four weeks using a low intensity blue light source with an output of between 405-420 nm (nanometers) "produced a 60 percent reduction in acne in 80 percent of patients. Reported remissions from acne lasted as long as three to eight months".
As published in the British Journal of Dermatology, Blue Light Therapy was studied in the treatment of mild-to-moderate acne. After 12 weeks of 15-minute daily active treatments with a portable blue LED light source, subjects showed a 76% mean improvement in inflammatory acne lesions. Both researchers and patients favored Blue Light Therapy, with more patients achieving improvement in acne over other types of treatment groups. The research concluded that blue light "acts synergistically in improving acne by combining anti-inflammatory actions, rendering phototherapy with blue light an effective and safe treatment for acne."

| Is Blue Acne Light Facial Treatment Safe? |
A recent innovation favored by dermatologists and salon therapists worldwide, Blue Light Therapy is non-invasive, supports the body's natural processes to eliminate bacteria and control acne and does not cause discomfort or adverse effects associated with prescription acne medication use.
Blue Acne Light Facial Treatment is totally safe and unlike other acne-clearing lights, does not generate harsh heat or harmful UV rays which can actually damage the skin or cause pre-mature aging. Described as easy, relaxing safe and painless, Blue Acne Light Facial Treatment builds confidence by creating and maintaining a clear, acne-free complexion.
Although there are no reported studies which conclude that Blue LED Light is unsafe to look at, it is recommended that the included protective goggles be worn during treatments for the patient's comfort. LED Blue Light is considered a safe, easy and gentle skin rejuvenation technology however the following precautions should always be taken:
 Do not use if pregnant, epileptic or taking cortisone or steroid injections
Do not use on open sores, wounds or infected areas.
