@@sreyen1065 I use LED 3-5 times a week. Fives is the max recommended number of sessions for my devices. Each device will have its recommended parameters (time per session and how many times a week) you should use it. Definitely don’t overuse LED. It tends to dry out skin. In the case of LED ( and all skincare devices really) more is not better.😊
@@beyond50skin thanks for your kind reply.. I have the device but I wasn't sure if it's worth it.. I over used it the first 2 months I got it, then I got lazy and I stopped.. I'm thinking about to reuse it.. how do you clean the device?? You clean it each time you use it??. Or once a week?? And with what??. With water?. Thanks
I could definitely see an improvement in the redness in your skin. I so appreciate your full and frank comments about red light therapy not working on wrinkles so I don’t think it’s for me. As you say, nothing really works on wrinkles except surgery, sadly!
The research I’ve read has explicitly stated red light therapy is most effective when used after application of a retinol or tretinoin. The optimal time is daily for 15-20 minutes. I have the omnibus, and the timer shuts off at 10 minutes, so I click the control again and use it for 20 minutes. I have absolutely noticed a difference in my upper and lower eyelids, my center line on my forehead, and around my mouth. All the “problem” areas of my face. You must be consistent with daily use to get results, and to maintain the results. I am loving my mask, and plan to buy the neck and chest, and wells as gloves as soon as I have the mask paid off.
Yes, I FULLY agree with the red light therapy making sun spots go away with CONSISTANT use, but TRUE, it does nothing for wrinkles. I did my research for a SOLID yr. & found a reknowned double board certified facial plastic surgeon right across the river, Upstate, NY in the Hudson Valley. Litterally 8 miles from where I live. He also has an office in NYC. I got VERY lucky. He has a fellowship, trains other Dr"s, goes abroad to different third world countries to do surgeries & trains the Dr's WHILE doing the surgeries!. He's in the Hudson Valley Magazine as one of the top notch plastic surgeons around the NY area & has been in that magazine SEVERAL times, so I got extremely lucky. I bit the bullet, made a consultation & went ahead for the surgery. I could not be any happier. PLUS, I am 66 & he matched up what I felt on the inside, which is in my mature 30's. He did not change the structure of my face, but lifted it back up as I used to look. NOW, the reason WHY I chose plastic surgery is simply because all the things this wonderful beautiful "Cindy" has said.......all these things costs money. She said she had to budget for what she wanted to achieve. These procedures here & there are FINE, but they will not last forever. Its not a one & done. SKINCARE is a MUST, no matter what you choose. But to achieve what Cindy chooses to achieve without going under the knife, costs money. As per watched her video & her journey she has gone through for 7 yrs., HAD to cost her a pretty penny. Plus you have to keep it up. In her 7 yr. journey she"s probably spent MORE money than I spent on ONE surgery. If you can't afford to keep up the little things here & there, you have litterally waisted TONS of money. And depending on WHERE you live, the costs for all these procedures COULD be very high. I as well started in 2015 with botox, a little filler here & there & saved the receipts just to see how much I spent in a matter of 8 yrs. It was a LOT! Then the jowls started. I went from a facially beautiful woman with a beautiful heart shaped face into looking so old with a now SQUARE face, a turkey neck & crepey facial & neck skin. It LITTERALLY sent me into a very bad depression. I am a hairdresser, But felt & llooked like an old HAG! Beautiful looks run in our family. We won the genetic lottery, but getting on up in years. healthy & STILL feeling in my 30's through me for a LOOP! Some want to grow old gracefully, I don't. We are ALL given free will. I chose the one & done surgery, saved a LOT more money in the long run doing so & feel SO much better about myself. This surgery will last me 10-15 yrs. I of course STILL do my morning & nightly routine skin care & use that red light therapy EVERYDAY. I also use medical grade skin care products. One thing I wanted to point out & that is whether you get the panel OR the face mask, they BOTH have to be plugged in, so I didn't understand that Cindy had mentioned that the mask could be more convenient. With what way??? You can only walk so many feet from where you have it plugged in. But if anyone has any questions or comments on MY paragraphed story, please feel free to ask. I am a hairdresser & was also trained in a little skin care while in school. Cind, your video was GREAT to watch. I will subscribe to you. THANK YOU
It’s exactly what I believe the red&near infrared can do: improve skin tone, calm down erythema. Thank you for your honesty. It’s so uplifting to conclude some are not for sale.
I use a face mask and neck/dec mask from The Light Salon that sells the original Boost mask. It does have the lights over the upper lip. One tip I’ve learned with my mask: if I make sure the mask is touching my skin (I gently press on my cheek hollow) it has made a big difference in my results for smoothing texture in that area.
Good morning thank you for watching and for your tips on how you use your mask more effectively. Thank goodness more masks are coming out with coverage over the lip area.🙌. I will LS to the growing list.💜
Hi Cindy! Great video! I completely agree that red light immediately calms down my redness too. I don’t think that calming inflammation should be dismissed, as I really believe if your skin in constantly inflamed, that definitely ages you. I really believe that the results you get from red light have a lot to do from where you are starting. Obviously red light wasn’t a mainstream thing when we were younger, but I can only imagine for those that start younger(like your son) and are consistent, they will probably have amazing results! Thank you so much for sharing your results with us!
Hi Tina, so nice of you to pop on and leave such a lovely comment. You have done such a great job sharing your LED journey. I have enjoyed following along. I am excited to see my results as I continue to use my red light devices throughout the years. My son is only a week in and already happy with his results. Agree!! Can you imagine if he continues to be consistent though out the years how he will benefit? I was in NYC in March and instead of a gym my hotel had a red light sauna! There were mostly young folks coming and going. It was BUSY! I wish I had made the time. Next time!! Happy Holidays 💜
Thanks, Tamara. This was fun to do. It’s always nice to try a skin care device that makes a positive impact on mature skin. I know you have a red light mask. Have you ever used a red light panel? sending you happy Sunday vibes 💕💜💕
I’ve been ignoring the red light therapy craze. However, I found out about red light therapy for macular degeneration and it led to this video. I ordered a small tabletop panel so I can use for the eyes twice a week and numerous times throughout for my skin. Thanks for your useful information.
May I ask what your provider said about the benefits of LED for MD? Did they recommend RED LIGHT, NIR or both. I asked my ophthalmologist because I have a family history of macular degeneration. He said the research isn’t there. I’m considering going for a second opinion. Thanks for sharing your experience. 😊
I had a full facelift 2 months ago! Fabulous job! I didn't do my eyes because I didn't need it but I did do a full facelift which included my neck and my two daughters in their 50s's did a mini facelift which included the neck and all three of us are very very pleased. It was easy and minimal swelling and like I said incredible job and wish I had done it sooner. Tried to send before photos from four months ago before laser treatment and before the facelift so you could see the comparison. Very natural. I'm definitely glad I did it because at 75 I tried to talk myself out of it. My friends just kept saying you don't need it, you don't need it, your skin looks great I don't know why you're doing it. One of my daughters says mom you're just too old. Of course that just made me want to do it more. My husband said honey you look great but do what makes you happy. I don't have any health issues I don't take any prescriptions so I went for it. Healing was incredible in such a short period of time and scars that I can barely see even in magnification mirror. Needless to say I'm happy about that too. Waiting to hear your announcement on what you plan on doing? I hope this encourages you to do whatever it is that you wanna do. I know going under anesthesia is scary for most and one of the reasons my daughter didn't want me to do it at my age. I had absolutely no problems with the surgery or after the surgery, it was a piece of cake. My recommendation number one find the best board-certified plastic surgeon and do your homework. Good luck and keep me posted.
@@cynthiaangrisani5877 oh my gosh you have definitely encouraged me!! I’m getting all the same reactions from friends & family but it’s my face and you are not the 1st person who said “I wish I’d done it sooner” Thank you SO much for sharing 💜!
I noticed a peak in your skin health after 3 months, and then it oddly started "declining" a bit again. Could it be that the effects "harm" instead of help if it's used too much? I also saw a youtuber (Koko) who had used red LED for her hair, and her hair grew very much in the beginning and then stopped growing after a period when she had used it excessively. What do you think? Anyone else experienced this?
I used LED according to directions which as you point out is very important. Over use can be drying and counter productive. If you skip to the time stamp 6:20 I explain why some pictures aren’t as flattering due to my struggles with inflammation throughout the year. But over all with consistency my skin improved over time. I still struggle with bouts of flushing. It’s likely a result of menopause. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts and the reminder not to over use skincare devices/modalities. Have a great weekend and thanks for being part of the beyond50skin community 💜
Yes, it looks best at 6 months. The lighting is different, so not sure and the first picture seems to have some oil on the face. But with wrinkles at 6 months looks definitely better than 9 months.
I think all the lines on your face improved! Your skin looks so much nicer & even your nose looks less puffy! I think you look great! Very impressive & exciting results! Thank you!
Thank you for watching & for your feedback. 💜 I absolutely love LED red light Therapy. Off to do a session & get ready for Mother’s Day. Wishing you a very happy weekend! 😊
It's hard to tell the difference in the before and afters because the light source is different every time. I didn't see that much difference. I HAVE been using red light therapy for many years, but not on my face, and not with LEDs. I have a laser device. I used to use it on my little dog and it brought him much relief from his joint pains. After he passed, I used it on myself. It's not a miracle, but it helps a lot with minor pains.
@@LMD2915 Thank you for sharing. I actually just purchased an LED panel last September… I’m trying it for hip pain. Thanks for sharing your experience and your senior dog’s experience using LED laser light therapy for pain. The only experience I have with LED laser is with my LED laser hair cap which I have used for hair maintenance due to androgenetic alopecia since 2014. I appreciate you being part of the beyond50skin community and contributing to the conversation💜🙌
Thanks for this very informative video! My husband and I have both been using the Omnilux face masks for about 9 months and have seen a measurable improvement in our skin as to overall skin tone, improved brightness and texture. I was also disappointed that Omnilux didn’t have any LED lights in the upper lip area but, I ended up purchasing their new Eye Brightener mask which is a small kidney shaped device that is perfect for the upper lip area. I just slip it under the face mask which easily holds it in place. So happy that I can now target the fine lines on my upper lip too! 💋😃
First, let me say I’m impressed you got your husband to use it. I finally talk to my son into it, but it took a bit of doing. 😂. He too is seeing nice improvements in his facial redness & KP. I know !! no lip bulbs 🤷🏼♀️. Several new masks have launched with lip coverag. But the lip only devices are a good option for those who have the original masks. I’ll bet Omnilux launches one with lip (and maybe chin) coverage to keep up with the competition. The panels are a nice option too and are surprisingly not that much more expensive. Thanks for sharing & have an awesome Saturday 💜
Thank you, that took dedication ❤️♥️!! Improving skin tone makes huge difference, much more than reducing wrinkles imo. Your skin is so bright & clear. If I could afford I’d get a red light bed & just treat everything all at once 😁 (joints, muscles, skin …).
Thanks Dorothy. Always appreciated you being here. My son is a real sport to try this out… my husband was like 🤨🧐uhhhh, No .. 😂😂😂. But I’ve got him finally agreed to trying the Calecim AHS😃!!
You’re so comprehensive and to the point. Thank you for your work - I’ve been thinking about getting this for awhile and am going to go for it. You and your son are so cute together!
Love it. I’ve been on the Red light journey for over 10 years - consistency is key ! I havnt always been consistent but have been for the last 6 months . Now upgraded to maysama serum 5.30am daily followed by Prana mask 6 minutes pulsed light & 6 mins red/IR , IR 6 mins on decolettage mostly daily . I’m glowing , as I see you are too 🎉
@@lindapringle1285 So glad to hear how successful your red light therapy journey has been! I too am not always as consistent as I’d like to be… This summer has been especially hectic. Ive been jumping out of bed in the morning and rushing around and just falling into bed at night after a quick face wash routine. Ironically, just today, I committed to using the Prana mask with my Maysama serum 3 to 5 times a week!! I was down to once or twice .. same with my microcurrent. The timing of your comment is perfect & has really motivated me!! Thank you 💜 Yipee for red light… l did it today before a photo shoot & the glow is real!!! 💜💜💜
@@beyond50skin the glow is so real!! I’ve seen your before journey pics you look fantastic ! I’m 52 and often get people thinking I’m in my 30s. I now have the best skin of my life with consistent use, Prescription skin care & peptides started end of last year, Botox & ZIIP halo ❤️ we have similar journeys although I’ve only just dipped my toe into RF at salon. I have a red light/ NIR mat for body I use a couple of times per week - it helped my husbands excruciating sciatica in only 4 days of use. I think 3 times weekly is great but I love the routine as I know it’s working & need the habits entrenched ! X
I can definitely see an improvement in your face.Skin tone,brightness,texture and firmness have improved.I wouldn't say the improvement is like the difference between night and day but there is definitely an improvement.I bought this mask for my face a month ago.I can't wait to see the results after one year.
Thanks for sharing you thoughts on my results. They are subtle but ongoing and for me LED is easy to slip into my skincare routine regularly. Consistency is the key.. I need to get back on track with more regular use after an extremly busy summer. Thanks again for watching and good luck with your LED Redlight journey💜
I see some difference in very fine lines and color for sure. I see a noticeable difference overall and I think it is worth to do. I also find it relaxing when I do it
Thanks I've actually had medical micorneedling and home microneedling as a follow up. I've had to take a break over the last year due skin barrier issues and changing the tool I use. I used to use a mincorneedling roller but am now concerned about the "drag". What tool do you use?
Thanks for watching. I use Maysama green tea. go.shopmy.us/p-4229351 If you decide to try let the group know how you like it. You can always find all the products in each video in the first “pinned comment” 💜
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on my results! Much appreciated. I am thinking about doing an update on some of the newer LED masks and devices. Any one that youre particularly interested in for a review? Best Cindy
There is Maysama mask that, unlike omnilux and current body, covers the mouth area and includes the blue light (in addition to red and near infrared. There is a huge body of the resort that shows that blue light addresses, acne, and other bacterial infections.
Thanks for sharing this with the group. Yes, there are a few recently launched masks that cover the lip area! Finally :) I have the Maysama mask and look forward to incorporating it into a video after giving it a try for a few months. Thanks for watching and wishing you a wonderful day. 💜
@@beyond50skin thank you, Cindy! I just came across another potentially great mask: PlasmaGLO LED . This one does not address lips, but it includes chin and jowls coverage! Similar to maysama it has all three lights, and it incorporates 234 LED bulbs for even coverage! As you probably noticed, I’m looking to buy a mask, so I researched about two dozen masks and panels and made an excel table comparing and contrasting them. So far maysama and plasmaglo are the winners in relatively budget oriented category!
@@inquisitive9248 Cool! Is Dr Rajani's also on your list? it covers the chin! Wow you are doing your research! So smart. I splurged and bought a panel late last year on sale from MITO (no blue light on my version). I like the fact that it provides wide coverage and takes less time for a treatment but the flexibility of having a mask is really nice too! Thank you so much for sharing your top picks! I will add the Plasma Glo to my ever-growing list to look into. BTW did you look into the JOVS mask? That one has come up on my radar recently too. Let's keep this thread going as we discover more!! 💜
It's called the Maysama "Prana" mask. The fact that it has the mouth area covered was what made me decide to go with it over any of the others. It's not the most comfortable mask, but I can handle wearing it for six minutes on the infrared pulsed light setting each evening.
I prefer a panel...it's especially good if you don't care for a mask on your face. The panel reaches your entire upper body. It Only takes 10 minutes...so not a problem.
I finally invested in a panel around the time I posted this one year video. It’s taken me a while to use it due to the convenience of a mask. But now I use it for my body and occasionally my face too depending on if I’m running around the house or not.🤣😅 Thanks for sharing how you’re using LED red light therapy would you mind sharing which panel you have? I’d love to know how you like it.
I’m new to the idea of red light therapy. You mentioned using a green tea serum, but I thought one should not put product on the face prior to using the mask. Do you put the green tea on after the red light therapy?
@@bigj3339 Maysama Green tea serum actually increases the effectiveness of RED Light. Here is the study (small but very promising results - cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0630/0840/7805/files/ApparReport_240322A21_-_sample_LED-sig1.pdf?v=1662725451) I always use it before my red light therapy sessions to reduce the production of free radicals (it's an antioxidant) and improve the benefits of LED Red Light.let me know if you have any additional questions. Thanks for being part of the Beyond50Skin Community.
Unfortunately, I cant say that it does. Perhaps my face is to far south to address laxity at this point with the limitations of home devices. Thanks so much for watching and commenting. Happy Monday 💜
You’re not the only one to mention this.. my skin is variable as it can experience sensitivity to products, environment etc. inflammation invariably seis my skin back and it takes time (and LED red light) to recover. Thanks so much for watching and commenting wishing you a very happy day!
I’m really pleased with my RedLight results too. I’m trying out a few panels in 2024. He’s ridiculous and a good sport. His 60 day review should be up in a few weeks 🤞
@@beyond50skin I have a private FB group as I was a Senegence distributor (still order some products and have a membership) and will share this video with my group 😀
@@CherylE6119 Wow, that’s very generous. Thank you 💜🙏💕 Skincare infused makeup looks like it may be a bit of a trend this year. Westman Atelier is trying, as is YouthForia with the younger generation (“sleep in your makeup” 🤣 and that whole campaign). Any thoughts?
@beyond50skin Oh interesting. I didn't know that. Senegence does have their Seneplex in their skincare. I was so awful falling asleep in makeup but not anymore!!
Dr Rajani’s mask has the LED above the mouth to address the upper lip. Also has a flap for the jowl. I just started it so I have no before and afters. I just hope it makes as big of a difference as yours did.
I saw that Dr R. came out with a mask that has addressed the lip and chin areas. Definitely a needed addition to the LED market. If you’re comfortable please report back on your results! I know the group would love to hear how you like his new mask!! I’m tempted by the JOVS 🤭. Happy weekend 💜
I hope you love it as much as I do!! Thanks for being part of the B50S community and be sure to share with the group your results once you have had a chance to use it for a few months. 💜
Ok my third try I'm actually going copy paste this from another place on my phone because every time I start to write to you it disappears! It might be somewhere but I can't find it so here goes. 1st model I'm interested in : Illuminate but it was bought by Lumara. A professional model that a local salon purchased about a week ago. She's used it on me twice and I love it. She's been looking for one for three years and this came highly recommended by someone she knows very well that has her own salon also who happens to be a registered nurse. So far I can't find much on this particular machine although the company has been in business for years so I have to do a little more homework which I will do this week. RUclips has a few videos but not detailed enough for me. I'm going to see her on Thursday to have another treatment. My main reason for going is my regular manicure and a pedicure but she is experimenting on me with this new piece of equipment and I'm loving it . Treatments are five minutes which I love .She owns the salon and has been wanting one of these for three years. I think my enthusiasm in talking to her about it got her motivated to finally make a decision. She goes to different seminars throughout the year looking at new items for her salon and she finally pulled the trigger on this one and I have to say I'm pretty impressed. Clearly I don't need a professional model but like my daughter says go big go home! Second model It’s by a company called biophotas I believe. But you should be able to find it using Celluma pro as well. My daughter's owned hers for five -8 years. She bought it when she lived in LA and she loves hers. The same model is still being made and it's still 30 minutes per treatment and that kind of eliminates that for me. I haven't done any real homework on that model because of the 30 minute treatment time but haven't ruled it out entirely. It looks identical to her machine but I'm sure they've made changes other than the time for the treatments. I will look into the machine that you recommended and do a little homework on that one. I really appreciate your rapid response because I have not been able to get Maysama to response to my direct questions. I did however order several products from her especially the one that you use right before the red light therapy. In fact I ordered three bottles one for my daughter and one for the woman at the salon to try with her machine and of course for myself along with a few other things I wanted to try. After doing a little research I think the curve panels are more suited to me. I like the idea of having an equal amount of red light therapy on both sides of my face and that's what's made up my mind. If you have any knowledge of these two I'd appreciate any information you have to share. I'm anxious to order something this week so I'll be making up my mind but I will do a little research on the one that you recommended as well. Again thanks so much for your help.
@@cynthiaangrisani5877 I’m really impressed by your research! I’m sorry Maysama didn’t get back to you, but it sounds like you’re most interested in a curved panel in the long run. I’m happy to reach out to Lauren or Bev @masysma on your behalf if you’d like me to.. I’m not familiar with the model that you mentioned, sry. What was the name of the second one? The one your daughter had. Do keep me posted on what you end up purchasing excited that you’re taking the plunge!
@@cynthiaangrisani5877 one more point and another one you might want to research: Both the Celluma and the Dermalux Flex MD ‘medically certified’ From Alice of the Tweakments Guide: “‘certified medical device’, it means it is a medically recognised treatment for conditions such as psoriasis, acne and pain relief. Everyone who sells an LED device bangs on about how it’s ‘NASA-derived technology’ which, yes, that’s technically correct, but they leave you to infer that you are getting top quality scientifically outstanding technology in their device which you generally aren’t. But with these two, you are…”
Second model owned by my daughter I left it out of my post here's the name ! It’s by a company called biophotas I believe. But you should be able to find it using Celluma pro as well. Same company you mentioned!
This is a note I wrote to someone else that has a Facebook video on dermalux flex. Of course no mention of pulse red light therapy on the unit? If you know anything about these questions I would appreciate you sharing. Is there a pulse feature? The newest and greatest is pulse red light therapy? Why are some competitors and professional models only five minute treatment time and others are 20 and 30 minutes? Huge difference. I also noticed when the treatment time is 5 to 7 minutes you only do it between two and three times a week but the ones that are 20 and 30 minutes you could do it five times a week?
I use my Omnilux face mask over my lips, neck and sternum area, after I use it on my face, I place it vertically on these areas. So it turns out to be 20minute session altogether.
Also: my beautiful teenage/young adult daughter had severe acne. We purchased a blue light Omnilux and it really cleared up her acne. I highly recommend OmniClear for those peeps struggling with cystic acne.
Great tip!! Thanks for sharing… that seems obvious now that you mentioned it. Out of the box thinking!! Love it!! I’m not sure I want thought about it..😂🤦♀️😂
@@judybuessing5143 SO true. Great therapy for acne support. I’ve been hearing about magenta light for acne as well (blue+red)! Thanks again for sharing. We all know friends and loved ones that are managing acne. 💜
I’m just in the middle of video, but: I see the most effects around your eyes/ under the brow.. unless it’s also attributed to slight facial expression change. So my question is about your baseline/ had you also used any other devices, or had treatments over the test period? Thanks. *I saw Dr. Ramani came out with a mask that has additional ‘power to the upper lip, And reaches U see the neck to help jowling; super curious. Thanks for the video :>
Love that new masks are coming out with wider coverage areas. MAYSAMA’s Prana mask also covers the lip & has invisible pulsed light ( theoretically to improve absorption & cellular function & health!) So much new technology it’s hard to keep up! About my photos. I was using microcrrent & the Nira laser on my crows feet only during my LED trial. No, no in office treatments to my face during this year. I was focused on in-office treatments for surgical scar & décolleté rejuvenation. Thanks for watching & contributing to the conversation 💜
Hi there sweetie! I just purchased a Hooterak mask from our amazon, Canada and just after the 1st treatment, I can see a difference! lol...Honestly though....about your lotion, do you put it on "after" your treatment? And also, if this isn't available on our Canadian amazon store, do you have an equivalent you could recommend? Ty!
So glad to hear that you’re enjoying your red light even after the first treatment. My son had the same experience very shortly after using the men’s mask. MAYSAMA (go.shopmy.us/p-5394163) does ship to Canada 🇨🇦💜 keep us posted on your progress and thanks for being part of the beyond50skin community 💕
I am a woman of color in my 60s and I too have the Hooterak model. Within 2-3 uses, I saw immediate results. My skin is tighter, firmer, brighter, and smoother! I need far less makeup than before!❤❤
@@glenbutler9611 Wow now I must go check out this mask you ladies are raving about!! Thanks for sharing! I always put on the Maysama Serum BEFORE my red light session ... They ship do ship to CANADA!! go.shopmy.us/p-5394163 (Here is my affiliate link for your convenience should you decide to try it. I have a discount code: CINDY10. No Pressure at all.) Happy Monday. 💜
Right? I know!!! When it was starting this one-year trial year ago and none of the masks that I was looking to have an area above the lip. One big reason (aside from wanting to try for pain) that it got a panel. Which mask did you buy? I saw both Maysama’s Prana & Dr. Rajani’s masks have lip coverage … the Prana also has pulsed light, Dr R’s has LEDs under the chin and the JOVS has full facial coverage ok laser & LED diodes. I can only imagine Omnilux and Current Body will step up and create new designs to meet demands . Thanks for watching and for sharing your mask and how you’re liking it. 💜💜
I am considering red light therapy for lips since the masks don't typically work on lips. Have you used or do you know anyone who has used a red light device for lips only?
@@JayneAdams-b9t Yes, people are using red light therapy in the upper lip area & actual overleap area with the new masks, and of course panels cover the full . I’ve used my panel for over a year and I am currently using I’m now using.the Prana mask by Maysama ( Here’s my affiliate link & savings code go.shopmy.us/p-5647751 (CINDY10) It covers the lip and upper lip. If you prefer a panel I like & use the MITO panel. My affiliate link & savings code are go.shopmy.us/p-5462808 (B50SMITO) Best wishes on your LED search. Let me know if I can answer any other questions. Covering the lip area is a big concern for mature women over 50. I feel it’s time some of the older mask models stepped up to the newer designs that are addressing more areas of concern . 💜
Hello, Thanks for your question. 830nm is NIR and 660nm is Red Light. They're two different wavelengths of light that perform differently at different cellular level. Red light (660nm) affects cells more superficially and NIR affects cells at deeper layers of the skin. There are best ranges for each type of light therapy based on research studies but on type of light therapy may not be "better" than another. It completely depends on your skincare goals, skin conditions and skin type which type of light therapy is best for you. Always confer with your medical provider before choosing a skincare device. If you have any additional questions let me know. Happy Sunday💜
@@esra_erimez Of course any time. There is new research about possible effects of different light waves on different skin tones, especially for those who are concerned about melasma and other photo/heat sensitive skin conditions.
@@sreyen1065 Hi. Thanks for your question … each device has their own parameters on how long to wear it to get the right dose per session. For the current body & Omnilux masks it’s 10 minutes per session and they automatically turn off.
@@sreyen1065 Apologies!! I forgot to explain how you clean LED masks. You can use a warm cloth with mild soap & water. Some masks can withstand alcohol wipes. Cleaning instructions will be in the care manual. The alcohol wipes may have the potential to degrade some silicone masks, so definitely make sure you read the instructions. 💕💜
Every mask or LED panel, device, etc. have specific recommended exposure times. Usually the day after you take your dose. Both the CB and Omnilux mask recommend up to 5 times a week and the treatment time is pre-programmed for 10 min each session. Each treatment includes Red & Infrared Light Therapy. In these two masks you can’t select one or the other. Hope this helps and thanks for being part of the beyond50skin community 💜
Wow! Your video was excellent. I've been considering red light therapy. I look forward to watching the resurfacing treatment. My skin has looked pretty good (for my age), and boom! now it really isn't. Thank you for sharing your experiences. Best to you. :)
Thanks for watching. I’m glad you enjoyed this video. I can completely empathize lol. At 50 my skin went from fine to eeeek seemingly overnight ☹️. Happy to answer any questions you might have in your search for the BEST red light therapy device for so many new ones coming out recently it’s hard to keep up!!
I'm hoping that you can give me a straight answer concerning the Maysama red light panel. Many units are curved therefore they're treating the front of your face and sides equally at the same time and these are more professional units and are more money. Meanwhile Maysama panel has never shown or demonstrated to my knowledge if sides of your face and the front are exposed equally . I'm a little confused on that because no one mentions rotating the face at all or changing the timer to add more time for any kind of rotation .The timer is set to a max and it never once says to turn your head doesn't discuss it or say to extend the time if you have to turn from side to side at what level are is the unit setting at height wise ? Thanks for your response. Hope this question makes sense?
@@cynthiaangrisani5877 Hi Cynthia, Your question definitely makes sense. All flat panels in my opinion cant evenly treat the face. I always just slowly turn my head side to side. I don’t increase the time. You’re SO right nobody ever mentions that!! I don’t even think I’ve mentioned it the few times I’ve talked about how I use my panels! I tend to use a mask most days. Such an excellent point! I don’t know why it slipped my mind to mention it! 🤪 If you’re not into head turning nor doing all three (sides & front) for the allotted time.. (i’d worry a little bit about overexposure because there’ll be some overlap ) I say go for a curved panel or a mask. Let me know which one you’re thinking about :) If I were to choose a domed or a 3 sided panel I would try the DERMALUX / Derma Flex … it’s a pricey number; but if you have any interest I can reach out for discount code (no guarantees, but it can’t hurt to ask ) let me know. I used to have a code, but I don’t think it works anymore. I don’t talk much about it because it’s so expensive. Also I don’t own one myself. But it definitely solves the issue for the sides of the face!! I’d love an LED red-light body sized dome!
Does the dermalux flex that you're talking about, does it have pulse red light therapy? Other units that don't mention it like the one that I'm trying in the salon it definitely has it? I keep looking for more information and I guess eventually I'll find out but thought you might know? If you have a discount code it might come in handy if I decide that's the one I want. Thank you again.
I'm trying to make up my mind on the two medically certified units that we talked about. I did find out that the dermalux flex MD does not have red pulse they say intentionally? I think because I've seen the video where the woman that has created the Maysama panel talks about pulse light like it's the best thing ever. I had that in the back of my head like I needed it and now I'm questioning myself. There is a reason why these two certified units have treatments of 20 to 30 minutes and a lot less LED lights than the cheaper pro models which some of them have up to 1000 and they only have 5 minute treatments. I spoke with my daughter today and she says she has never in five years ever use the red pulse feature. My daughter is going on a three week trip to Africa at the end of the month and I'm going to use her panel while she is gone. It would be so nice to have someone to talk to that knew the science behind these two medically certified units and why the treatments are 20 to 30 minutes and no pulse on one of them. I really like the look of the Dermalux Flex model but they don't offer pulse feature but now I'm second-guessing myself where there is a need because the treatments are 20 to 30 minutes and there's a reason for that although I don't have any one to talk to about the scientific information as to why? Hope this makes sense and if you have anything to add I would appreciate it. Let me know if you get a discount code I have a few weeks to research this so I'm not in as much of a hurry since I'm going to use my daughters for three weeks. Of course I've also been told that as long as it's FDA approved it's not the end of the world but definitely don't buy anything that's not FDA approved because it's better than nothing? By the way I'm watching your video again and I see quite a bit of improvement where you show using the mask for 12 months . Love your videos by the way and I like your attitude. I know you probably mentioned your age but I didn't rerun the video to find out but I'm 75 and I didn't take care of my skin for years but I was very fortunate my mother had beautiful skin and my dad and I think I inherited some of that. I have had some work done recently in the last couple months and laser treatments and a little bit of cosmetic surgery and I'm very happy with it so I'm trying to get in the habit of taking care of my skin which I have for about three months, yay me. You're inspiring me to move forward!
@@cynthiaangrisani5877 I didn’t start taking care of my skin until I was 52. I am now 58 almost 59!!!! I’m so glad you’re enjoying my videos. I made my very first video after a challenging recovery from ablative laser resurfacing (even though it was the one treatment I’ve had that made the biggest difference in my skin, aside from skincare). I subsequently did a really in-depth recovery video. I was definitely not blessed with good skin & I paid the price for my neglect. I’m so excited you get to try your daughter’s unit!!! I think that will give you a good idea of the type of results you can get in the short run after five weeks. As for pulsed light , I just started my deep dive into it as well. I will say I’d use pulse light for hair growth for over 10 years with nice results. I just need to stay consistent!!! I will continue our conversation and link references and information as I discover more about pulsed light. I talk about it briefly (and I want do a deeper dive into it and DNA repair enzymes) I’m totally excited you shared your experience with some small cosmetic surgery procedures. I’m thinking about doing a not so small one so keep your eyes peeled for that video! Unless I chicken out lol.
@@shthomas7306 They actually make LED masks for the hands. I will have news this fall on a new LED release for the hands. But it shouldn’t make the skin of the hands thinner. Have you experienced this?
Hi, excellent question! They are very similar.. I’d go with the one that fits your budget. Omnilux does have s history of manufacturing professional / in-office LED devices. This may, or not be of interest/ of importance. But I thought it would be helpful to know. Honestly, they’re both great entry level masks. You may enjoy browsing all my Red Light recommendations. 😊Thanks for watching & have an amazing weekend 💜
Hi thanks for your question. It reminds me I need to do an updated video on this topic 😊. Here is a link to my video on reducing pigment from last year (but it’s still relevant) and to all my favorite products I feel help control pigmentation 👉 shopmy.us/collections/366661 Feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions. Wishing you wonderful evening 💜💕💜 PS also in this link you will find a list of skincare ingredients to watch for as you review products you may already have. That way if you’ve tried one it might be a good idea to try a different formula.
Thank you! The link didn’t bring me to your video but rather to a list of the products you use or have tried. I can probably find that video by doing a quick search.
@@joa.d.4852 My apologies I just fixed the link. It should take you to the video, the list of top ingredients as well as the products I've tried and recommend. Thank you for letting e know the video link wasn't working 😊
Thanks for your kind comment. A mask is definitely convenient! Ironically I’m trying a panel to see if I can make myself relax for 10 min 😂😂😂. Whatever works as long as we use it right?! 💕💜💕
@@lowland1 a good question! You have to do them SO often to see results (3-6 x a day) I just couldn’t remember to do them . I was using them to build upper cheeks and I would be great for a few weeks and then I would forget to do them 🤪 I would 100% try it. You have absolutely nothing to lose. If you can keep up with it if you do, please please report back to us!!🙌🙌
@@beyond50skin By the sound of it, doing it 3-6 times a day, you must have been doing the ones by Peta, the Australian lady. I am trying to do the Eva Fraser ones, which is once a day, 4 times a week. I think it is 4 times a week to give your muscles a rest the rest of the week, so I do wonder if 3-6 times a day is good for you. Also with the Eva Fraser ones you eventually only do them twice a week as you have then built up your muscles. I am curious which ones you tried.
How do you combine Retina A with this Light. I have this light mask coming in the mail and Im also starting Reina A cream. Any tips?? Thank you so much. I dont want to burn the tar out of my face
LOL I hear you! Luckiy these are complementary. LED can help reduce inflammation. First follow your Dr's recommendations. But here are some additional tips. My initial prescriber never told me a thing!... so I burned off my face lol! It took me two years to try it again! Retin A is definitely an ingredient you want to have a bit of respect for, absolutely. From my experience if you've never used it before I'd start w/ 1x week, always in your PM routine.. after cleansing on dry skin. You can put on bit of moisturizer before... but let it dry down to prevent increased absorption (and a bit after too...this is the sandwich method I used.. after burning my face off the first time). You can also let the Retin A dry down and add a bit of moisturizer after. Once you have no issues, irritation , with 1x a week you can bump it up to 2 then 3, 4, 5, etc. The great thing about Red light is you can use it in the AM to calm down any redness that creeps up with starting Retin A. Once you're used to Retin A you can use your LED AM or PM. Whatever suits your schedule. Red Light in my experience is best used after cleansing before the rest of your skincare. If you have any additional questions let me know. Thanks for being part of the beyond50skin community.💜
Thank you so much for getting back to me.I was worried I could not use these in combination. Its good to know I can. I just got my micro needle Home infusion today as well so Im trying to throw everything at my face at once, I was going to get a face lift but decided to try some of the things all you wonderful ladies have been recommending, Have you used Retina A while also Micro needling? . Or should I just I wait maybe a week or more after doing the micro needling? I will do the sandwich application for sure.@@beyond50skin
Hi, Thanks for watching. My Omnilux & Current Body LED masks are both 10 min treatments up to 5x a week. I used it 5x week for a year. Now I’m also trying other LED devices and use them 3-5 x a week on a maintenance mode. Overusing red light therapy can actually dry out skin, so only use devices as directed. As is often the case with skincare & skincare devices, 😊more is not necessarily better. This is definitely true in the case of red light Therapy.😊
Yes, I definitely have chronic flushing 🙁. Some years it’s better than others. What REDLIIGHT device do you use? That’s a bummer you feel your redness is worse. Is it always there or does it come and go? Sometimes redness is due to medical conditions so talking to a medical professional is always a good first step.
@@beyond50skin im hoping it will improve over time with the red light device, and maybe ive been using it too frquently for my sensitive skin. it improves initially with light then next day a bit red. its not one of the high end well - studied ones that I use which you mentioned so i was taking a bit of a gamble :) but im glad to know it improves your redness and have had chronic flushing. maybe my skin is just getting more bloodflow as it heals. thanks so much for the response. you are absolutely lovely!!
@@annmullinax4957 Over time via collagen & elastin production it’s supposed to help with fine lines. I find gentle & regular exfoliation + retinoids and hydrating toners and moisturizers are more helpful for crepey skin.
Upper lip lines are a big target for anti-aging, thank you so much for mentioning that these devices don't have a diode over the upper lip! Very helpful
Glad you found this helpful. If you’re looking for a mask to cover lips. I recommend the Parana by Maysama. I’m getting ready to try it myself & two reputable RUclipsers I know personally recommend it. In addition to having lip coverage it has pulsed light. Very intriguing technology that my LED hair cap has as well. go.shopmy.us/p-4831678 No pressure at all to use my code & link. It’s here for your research and you get a little off if you use code CINDY10. Good luck finding your perfect LED 💜
You should check out Dr. Rajani’s PlasmaGlo LED mask. It actually has a section that goes underneath your chin to target your jowls AND it hits your lips! It’s currently $425. I have it and I love it - I personally think it’s much better than Omnilux. I really appreciate your video on your results, but I wish you would use consistent lighting. It’s really hard to tell what your results are when the lighting is so different in the photos.
I use the omnilux mask and maysama green rooibos pressed serum. My question is what do use after the 10minute treatment. I’m trying to incorporate my retinol and exfoliate. Do you wash of serum to then add other products? Would appreciate some advice. Thankyou
Hi Thanks for your question. Yes, I usually rinse off the serum, though it's completely optional. I haven't expereinced any issues with leaving it on before putting exfoliant or retinoid. I sometimes feel it leaves too dark a tone if I am wearing daytime (but recent batches are lighter so it can stay on an be used as my antioxidant for the day) If however I am on a Vit C rotation I rinse it off b/f add hydrating toner then Vit C. Hope this helps. If not I will try and clarify :)
No I’m not aware that they only last 24mo. if you’re caring for them. The one area of weakness is the cord mask junction. Be particularly careful not to pull on it or let the charger dangle from the mask. 😊
Omni mask have a great customer service my wire came lose sent a pik n they sent me another one i had it for a full year i was shocked they sent me a new one
@@CD-bn7el That's wonderful to hear. They have been very reliable in my experience as well. Love this mask. Thanks for sharing your experience with the beyond50skin community💜
I use the Maysama green Robo serum before LED red light. (I listed it in the description) I have tons of other videos on my skincare routine & skincare products I recommend. Check them out. If you have specific questions on what might be right for your skin don’t hesitate to ask.💜
There are small studies suggesting possible links to the benefits of LED & eye health. HOWEVER, I’m not aware of any clinical protocols resulting from these studies that currently recommend the use of LED for eye health. Personally my ophthalmologist isn’t recommending LED for eye health. The data just is there, yet!!. I recommend NOT using home LED devices (designed for skincare, not the treatment of the eye area ) on your eye area… Unless recommended by your licensed medical provider. I’d hate to see anyone experience negative effects using devices designed for skincare, on the delecate eye area. As a person with a family Hx of MD, detached retina, and Fuchs disease I am excited & I support continued research about the future eye health & LED Therapy💜 Thanks again for sharing😊
What a great question! I have migraines and I haven’t noticed any improvement since using theLED RED LIGHT masks. . I have heard that panels ( I’ve just started using one) can help with pain,TBD. I have a device that I’ll be reviewing soon. It really helps. Here’s the link from Amazon ./ not affiliate. BOB AND BRAD Eye Massager, EyeOasis 2 a.co/d/hdpdohV . Hope you have a wonderful Sunday. Thanks for watching and being part of the beyond50skin community 💕💜💕
Yes, but then you are doing a portion of your face 2x. I hesitate as more isn't necessarily better. It's a challenge with masks that don't cover the lips. I am trying the new Parana mask by Maysama. Others are raving about Dr Rajani's mask. :) Thanks for watching and wishing you a wonderful week ahead.
Hi Thanks for your question. Definitely. I recommend if you live in a dryer climate to top off your post LED routine with a moisturizer or a moisturizing sunscreen. 😊
You obviously need bifocals.Though her skin is far from perfect there is quite an improvement over the twelve month period.There is a definite improvement in skin tone,brightness,texture and firmness.Some of the wrinkles have diminished a bit too.
Oh gosh I’m sorry that happened. Melasma can be so challenging to treat. Thank you for sharing your experience. Honestly, if you have melasma, it’s possible any LED device, esp one including Near-Infrared (NIR) could trigger melasma. Melasma is a medical condition and best treated under the care of a Dermatologist. Wishing you all the best in your skincare journey and again sorry the CB LED mask didn’t work out for you. But appreciate your comment 💜
@@beyond50skin I’ve been on some Reddit communities and others have had this which is annoying cause I know LED seems to work for most people and I wanted to love it. It just didn’t work for me. Thanks for ur videos!
@@olga_b344 So true, not everyone will be a candidate for these home devices. Thanks again for sharing your experience. It’s wonderful to have such lovely subscribers that share the positive & negative so we can all learn from each other 💜
True, I had ablative laser in 2019. I’ve been very upfront about that and all the in-office treatments I’ve done. That doesn’t mean I’m done taking care of my skin. As I mention in the video, I had no in-office treatments during this 1 year LED trial. Aging continues even you choose to have in-office treatments up to and including a face lift. You cant stop caring for your skin. It's possible my results are less dramatic but I am please with my LED results, especially for helping with controlling inflammation. Have you tried LED Red light? If so did you find it helpful? Thanks so much for watching and for sharing your thoughts. 💕💜💕
Thanks for watching! So true it’s important to watch your diet and of course exercise and get good sleep … all those healthy habits contribute to great skin💜😊💕

How often do you use it??.. 2-4 times a week??
@@sreyen1065 I use LED 3-5 times a week. Fives is the max recommended number of sessions for my devices. Each device will have its recommended parameters (time per session and how many times a week) you should use it. Definitely don’t overuse LED. It tends to dry out skin. In the case of LED ( and all skincare devices really) more is not better.😊
@@beyond50skin thanks for your kind reply.. I have the device but I wasn't sure if it's worth it.. I over used it the first 2 months I got it, then I got lazy and I stopped.. I'm thinking about to reuse it.. how do you clean the device?? You clean it each time you use it??. Or once a week?? And with what??. With water?. Thanks
@@sreyen1065 I clean it weekly with gentle soap and water.
@@beyond50skin thank you
I could definitely see an improvement in the redness in your skin. I so appreciate your full and frank comments about red light therapy not working on wrinkles so I don’t think it’s for me. As you say, nothing really works on wrinkles except surgery, sadly!
Thanks for watching, Dez. Yes, good ol’droopy skin needs a bit more. 🙃💜
The research I’ve read has explicitly stated red light therapy is most effective when used after application of a retinol or tretinoin. The optimal time is daily for 15-20 minutes. I have the omnibus, and the timer shuts off at 10 minutes, so I click the control again and use it for 20 minutes. I have absolutely noticed a difference in my upper and lower eyelids, my center line on my forehead, and around my mouth. All the “problem” areas of my face. You must be consistent with daily use to get results, and to maintain the results. I am loving my mask, and plan to buy the neck and chest, and wells as gloves as soon as I have the mask paid off.
Yes, I FULLY agree with the red light therapy making sun spots go away with CONSISTANT use, but TRUE, it does nothing for wrinkles. I did my research for a SOLID yr. & found a reknowned double board certified facial plastic surgeon right across the river, Upstate, NY in the Hudson Valley. Litterally 8 miles from where I live. He also has an office in NYC. I got VERY lucky. He has a fellowship, trains other Dr"s, goes abroad to different third world countries to do surgeries & trains the Dr's WHILE doing the surgeries!. He's in the Hudson Valley Magazine as one of the top notch plastic surgeons around the NY area & has been in that magazine SEVERAL times, so I got extremely lucky. I bit the bullet, made a consultation & went ahead for the surgery. I could not be any happier. PLUS, I am 66 & he matched up what I felt on the inside, which is in my mature 30's. He did not change the structure of my face, but lifted it back up as I used to look. NOW, the reason WHY I chose plastic surgery is simply because all the things this wonderful beautiful "Cindy" has said.......all these things costs money. She said she had to budget for what she wanted to achieve. These procedures here & there are FINE, but they will not last forever. Its not a one & done. SKINCARE is a MUST, no matter what you choose. But to achieve what Cindy chooses to achieve without going under the knife, costs money. As per watched her video & her journey she has gone through for 7 yrs., HAD to cost her a pretty penny. Plus you have to keep it up. In her 7 yr. journey she"s probably spent MORE money than I spent on ONE surgery. If you can't afford to keep up the little things here & there, you have litterally waisted TONS of money. And depending on WHERE you live, the costs for all these procedures COULD be very high. I as well started in 2015 with botox, a little filler here & there & saved the receipts just to see how much I spent in a matter of 8 yrs. It was a LOT! Then the jowls started. I went from a facially beautiful woman with a beautiful heart shaped face into looking so old with a now SQUARE face, a turkey neck & crepey facial & neck skin. It LITTERALLY sent me into a very bad depression. I am a hairdresser, But felt & llooked like an old HAG! Beautiful looks run in our family. We won the genetic lottery, but getting on up in years. healthy & STILL feeling in my 30's through me for a LOOP! Some want to grow old gracefully, I don't. We are ALL given free will. I chose the one & done surgery, saved a LOT more money in the long run doing so & feel SO much better about myself. This surgery will last me 10-15 yrs. I of course STILL do my morning & nightly routine skin care & use that red light therapy EVERYDAY. I also use medical grade skin care products. One thing I wanted to point out & that is whether you get the panel OR the face mask, they BOTH have to be plugged in, so I didn't understand that Cindy had mentioned that the mask could be more convenient. With what way??? You can only walk so many feet from where you have it plugged in. But if anyone has any questions or comments on MY paragraphed story, please feel free to ask. I am a hairdresser & was also trained in a little skin care while in school. Cind, your video was GREAT to watch. I will subscribe to you. THANK YOU
It’s exactly what I believe the red&near infrared can do: improve skin tone, calm down erythema. Thank you for your honesty. It’s so uplifting to conclude some are not for sale.
Thank you 😊
Just got my mask yesterday...I did red...but what color is infra-red? It has 5 colors
I use a face mask and neck/dec mask from The Light Salon that sells the original Boost mask. It does have the lights over the upper lip. One tip I’ve learned with my mask: if I make sure the mask is touching my skin (I gently press on my cheek hollow) it has made a big difference in my results for smoothing texture in that area.
Good morning thank you for watching and for your tips on how you use your mask more effectively. Thank goodness more masks are coming out with coverage over the lip area.🙌. I will LS to the growing list.💜
I can tell there is a very noticeable lift I am all in for this treatment thanks for sharing all of your results..
Your welcome and thanks for watching!
@AaronWilliams-sg6ob - Agree with you. It's nonsense that it's not doing anything for sag! Just ordered one yesterday.
Hi Cindy! Great video! I completely agree that red light immediately calms down my redness too. I don’t think that calming inflammation should be dismissed, as I really believe if your skin in constantly inflamed, that definitely ages you.
I really believe that the results you get from red light have a lot to do from where you are starting. Obviously red light wasn’t a mainstream thing when we were younger, but I can only imagine for those that start younger(like your son) and are consistent, they will probably have amazing results!
Thank you so much for sharing your results with us!
Hi Tina, so nice of you to pop on and leave such a lovely comment. You have done such a great job sharing your LED journey. I have enjoyed following along. I am excited to see my results as I continue to use my red light devices throughout the years. My son is only a week in and already happy with his results. Agree!! Can you imagine if he continues to be consistent though out the years how he will benefit? I was in NYC in March and instead of a gym my hotel had a red light sauna! There were mostly young folks coming and going. It was BUSY! I wish I had made the time. Next time!! Happy Holidays 💜
Fantastic video! Thank you for all the time and research you did for us! ❤️
Thanks, Tamara. This was fun to do. It’s always nice to try a skin care device that makes a positive impact on mature skin. I know you have a red light mask. Have you ever used a red light panel? sending you happy Sunday vibes 💕💜💕
I’ve been ignoring the red light therapy craze. However, I found out about red light therapy for macular degeneration and it led to this video. I ordered a small tabletop panel so I can use for the eyes twice a week and numerous times throughout for my skin. Thanks for your useful information.
May I ask what your provider said about the benefits of LED for MD? Did they recommend RED LIGHT, NIR or both. I asked my ophthalmologist because I have a family history of macular degeneration. He said the research isn’t there. I’m considering going for a second opinion. Thanks for sharing your experience. 😊
I had a full facelift 2 months ago! Fabulous job! I didn't do my eyes because I didn't need it but I did do a full facelift which included my neck and my two daughters in their 50s's did a mini facelift which included the neck and all three of us are very very pleased. It was easy and minimal swelling and like I said incredible job and wish I had done it sooner. Tried to send before photos from four months ago before laser treatment and before the facelift so you could see the comparison. Very natural. I'm definitely glad I did it because at 75 I tried to talk myself out of it. My friends just kept saying you don't need it, you don't need it, your skin looks great I don't know why you're doing it. One of my daughters says mom you're just too old. Of course that just made me want to do it more. My husband said honey you look great but do what makes you happy. I don't have any health issues I don't take any prescriptions so I went for it. Healing was incredible in such a short period of time and scars that I can barely see even in magnification mirror. Needless to say I'm happy about that too. Waiting to hear your announcement on what you plan on doing? I hope this encourages you to do whatever it is that you wanna do. I know going under anesthesia is scary for most and one of the reasons my daughter didn't want me to do it at my age. I had absolutely no problems with the surgery or after the surgery, it was a piece of cake. My recommendation number one find the best board-certified plastic surgeon and do your homework. Good luck and keep me posted.
@@cynthiaangrisani5877 oh my gosh you have definitely encouraged me!! I’m getting all the same reactions from friends & family but it’s my face and you are not the 1st person who said “I wish I’d done it sooner” Thank you SO much for sharing 💜!
I noticed a peak in your skin health after 3 months, and then it oddly started "declining" a bit again. Could it be that the effects "harm" instead of help if it's used too much? I also saw a youtuber (Koko) who had used red LED for her hair, and her hair grew very much in the beginning and then stopped growing after a period when she had used it excessively. What do you think? Anyone else experienced this?
I used LED according to directions which as you point out is very important. Over use can be drying and counter productive. If you skip to the time stamp 6:20 I explain why some pictures aren’t as flattering due to my struggles with inflammation throughout the year. But over all with consistency my skin improved over time. I still struggle with bouts of flushing. It’s likely a result of menopause. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts and the reminder not to over use skincare devices/modalities. Have a great weekend and thanks for being part of the beyond50skin community 💜
@@beyond50skin Thanks for taking time to answer. I forgot to tell you your skin looks great!
@@JL-iw5kx Oh thank you too kind. 💕
Yes, it looks best at 6 months. The lighting is different, so not sure and the first picture seems to have some oil on the face. But with wrinkles at 6 months looks definitely better than 9 months.
I think all the lines on your face improved! Your skin looks so much nicer & even your nose looks less puffy! I think you look great! Very impressive & exciting results! Thank you!
Thank you for watching & for your feedback. 💜 I absolutely love LED red light Therapy. Off to do a session & get ready for Mother’s Day. Wishing you a very happy weekend! 😊
It's hard to tell the difference in the before and afters because the light source is different every time. I didn't see that much difference. I HAVE been using red light therapy for many years, but not on my face, and not with LEDs. I have a laser device. I used to use it on my little dog and it brought him much relief from his joint pains. After he passed, I used it on myself. It's not a miracle, but it helps a lot with minor pains.
@@LMD2915 Thank you for sharing. I actually just purchased an LED panel last September… I’m trying it for hip pain. Thanks for sharing your experience and your senior dog’s experience using LED laser light therapy for pain.
The only experience I have with LED laser is with my LED laser hair cap which I have used for hair maintenance due to androgenetic alopecia since 2014.
I appreciate you being part of the beyond50skin community and contributing to the conversation💜🙌
Thanks for this very informative video! My husband and I have both been using the Omnilux face masks for about 9 months and have seen a measurable improvement in our skin as to overall skin tone, improved brightness and texture. I was also disappointed that Omnilux didn’t have any LED lights in the upper lip area but, I ended up purchasing their new Eye Brightener mask which is a small kidney shaped device that is perfect for the upper lip area. I just slip it under the face mask which easily holds it in place. So happy that I can now target the fine lines on my upper lip too! 💋😃
First, let me say I’m impressed you got your husband to use it. I finally talk to my son into it, but it took a bit of doing. 😂. He too is seeing nice improvements in his facial redness & KP.
I know !! no lip bulbs 🤷🏼♀️. Several new masks have launched with lip coverag. But the lip only devices are a good option for those who have the original masks. I’ll bet Omnilux launches one with lip (and maybe chin) coverage to keep up with the competition. The panels are a nice option too and are surprisingly not that much more expensive. Thanks for sharing & have an awesome Saturday 💜
Thank you, that took dedication ❤️♥️!! Improving skin tone makes huge difference, much more than reducing wrinkles imo. Your skin is so bright & clear. If I could afford I’d get a red light bed & just treat everything all at once 😁 (joints, muscles, skin …).
Ohhh a RED Light bed sounds lovely. I know they have red light Saunas!
Great video as always. Your son is so handsome!
Thanks Dorothy. Always appreciated you being here. My son is a real sport to try this out… my husband was like 🤨🧐uhhhh, No .. 😂😂😂. But I’ve got him finally agreed to trying the Calecim AHS😃!!
You’re so comprehensive and to the point. Thank you for your work - I’ve been thinking about getting this for awhile and am going to go for it. You and your son are so cute together!
Glad you enjoyed the video and are looking into an LED. Lots of great sales coming up for Mothers Day!
Love it. I’ve been on the Red light journey for over 10 years - consistency is key ! I havnt always been consistent but have been for the last 6 months . Now upgraded to maysama serum 5.30am daily followed by Prana mask 6 minutes pulsed light & 6 mins red/IR , IR 6 mins on decolettage mostly daily . I’m glowing , as I see you are too 🎉
@@lindapringle1285 So glad to hear how successful your red light therapy journey has been! I too am not always as consistent as I’d like to be…
This summer has been especially hectic. Ive been jumping out of bed in the morning and rushing around and just falling into bed at night after a quick face wash routine.
Ironically, just today, I committed to using the Prana mask with my Maysama serum 3 to 5 times a week!! I was down to once or twice .. same with my microcurrent. The timing of your comment is perfect & has really motivated me!! Thank you 💜
Yipee for red light… l did it today before a photo shoot & the glow is real!!! 💜💜💜
@@beyond50skin the glow is so real!! I’ve seen your before journey pics you look fantastic !
I’m 52 and often get people thinking I’m in my 30s. I now have the best skin of my life with consistent use, Prescription skin care & peptides started end of last year, Botox & ZIIP halo ❤️ we have similar journeys although I’ve only just dipped my toe into RF at salon. I have a red light/ NIR mat for body I use a couple of times per week - it helped my husbands excruciating sciatica in only 4 days of use. I think 3 times weekly is great but I love the routine as I know it’s working & need the habits entrenched ! X
@@lindapringle1285 Aww thanks 😊
I can definitely see an improvement in your face.Skin tone,brightness,texture and firmness have improved.I wouldn't say the improvement is like the difference between night and day but there is definitely an improvement.I bought this mask for my face a month ago.I can't wait to see the results after one year.
Thanks for sharing you thoughts on my results. They are subtle but ongoing and for me LED is easy to slip into my skincare routine regularly. Consistency is the key.. I need to get back on track with more regular use after an extremly busy summer. Thanks again for watching and good luck with your LED Redlight journey💜
I see some difference in very fine lines and color for sure. I see a noticeable difference overall and I think it is worth to do. I also find it relaxing when I do it
Thanks your feedback. I agree it’s super relaxing ☺️.
You might try micro needling for deep wrinkles
Thanks I've actually had medical micorneedling and home microneedling as a follow up. I've had to take a break over the last year due skin barrier issues and changing the tool I use. I used to use a mincorneedling roller but am now concerned about the "drag". What tool do you use?
Great video. What is the green tea gel you use w the mask? thank you
Thanks for watching. I use Maysama green tea. go.shopmy.us/p-4229351 If you decide to try let the group know how you like it. You can always find all the products in each video in the first “pinned comment” 💜
There is a diffference, deeper lines are still there skin texture is now smooth, like comparing a rough texture (before) to smooth texture (After).
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on my results! Much appreciated. I am thinking about doing an update on some of the newer LED masks and devices. Any one that youre particularly interested in for a review? Best Cindy
There is Maysama mask that, unlike omnilux and current body, covers the mouth area and includes the blue light (in addition to red and near infrared. There is a huge body of the resort that shows that blue light addresses, acne, and other bacterial infections.
Thanks for sharing this with the group. Yes, there are a few recently launched masks that cover the lip area! Finally :) I have the Maysama mask and look forward to incorporating it into a video after giving it a try for a few months. Thanks for watching and wishing you a wonderful day. 💜
@@beyond50skin thank you, Cindy! I just came across another potentially great mask: PlasmaGLO LED . This one does not address lips, but it includes chin and jowls coverage! Similar to maysama it has all three lights, and it incorporates 234 LED bulbs for even coverage! As you probably noticed, I’m looking to buy a mask, so I researched about two dozen masks and panels and made an excel table comparing and contrasting them. So far maysama and plasmaglo are the winners in relatively budget oriented category!
@@inquisitive9248 Cool! Is Dr Rajani's also on your list? it covers the chin! Wow you are doing your research! So smart. I splurged and bought a panel late last year on sale from MITO (no blue light on my version). I like the fact that it provides wide coverage and takes less time for a treatment but the flexibility of having a mask is really nice too! Thank you so much for sharing your top picks! I will add the Plasma Glo to my ever-growing list to look into. BTW did you look into the JOVS mask? That one has come up on my radar recently too. Let's keep this thread going as we discover more!! 💜
If you have melasma, avoid blue light like the plague
It's called the Maysama "Prana" mask. The fact that it has the mouth area covered was what made me decide to go with it over any of the others. It's not the most comfortable mask, but I can handle wearing it for six minutes on the infrared pulsed light setting each evening.
I prefer a panel...it's especially good if you don't care for a mask on your face. The panel reaches your entire upper body. It Only takes 10 minutes...so not a problem.
I finally invested in a panel around the time I posted this one year video. It’s taken me a while to use it due to the convenience of a mask. But now I use it for my body and occasionally my face too depending on if I’m running around the house or not.🤣😅 Thanks for sharing how you’re using LED red light therapy would you mind sharing which panel you have? I’d love to know how you like it.
I’m new to the idea of red light therapy. You mentioned using a green tea serum, but I thought one should not put product on the face prior to using the mask. Do you put the green tea on after the red light therapy?
@@bigj3339 Maysama Green tea serum actually increases the effectiveness of RED Light. Here is the study (small but very promising results - cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0630/0840/7805/files/ApparReport_240322A21_-_sample_LED-sig1.pdf?v=1662725451) I always use it before my red light therapy sessions to reduce the production of free radicals (it's an antioxidant) and improve the benefits of LED Red Light.let me know if you have any additional questions. Thanks for being part of the Beyond50Skin Community.
@@beyond50skin ……thank you for the response!
@@beyond50skin hi, which led panel did you buy?
Thank you for this honest review. If it’s doesn’t improve elasticity it’s not for me.
Unfortunately, I cant say that it does. Perhaps my face is to far south to address laxity at this point with the limitations of home devices. Thanks so much for watching and commenting. Happy Monday 💜
In the comparison pic at the beginning I think you look better at 3 and 6 mo than at 9 months
You’re not the only one to mention this.. my skin is variable as it can experience sensitivity to products, environment etc. inflammation invariably seis my skin back and it takes time (and LED red light) to recover. Thanks so much for watching and commenting wishing you a very happy day!
Definitely improvement in skin tone and lines. Your son was funny!!
I’m really pleased with my RedLight results too. I’m trying out a few panels in 2024. He’s ridiculous and a good sport. His 60 day review should be up in a few weeks 🤞
@@beyond50skin I have a private FB group as I was a Senegence distributor (still order some products and have a membership) and will share this video with my group 😀
@@CherylE6119 Wow, that’s very generous. Thank you 💜🙏💕 Skincare infused makeup looks like it may be a bit of a trend this year. Westman Atelier is trying, as is YouthForia with the younger generation (“sleep in your makeup” 🤣 and that whole campaign). Any thoughts?
@beyond50skin Oh interesting. I didn't know that. Senegence does have their Seneplex in their skincare. I was so awful falling asleep in makeup but not anymore!!
Dr Rajani’s mask has the LED above the mouth to address the upper lip. Also has a flap for the jowl. I just started it so I have no before and afters. I just hope it makes as big of a difference as yours did.
I saw that Dr R. came out with a mask that has addressed the lip and chin areas. Definitely a needed addition to the LED market. If you’re comfortable please report back on your results! I know the group would love to hear how you like his new mask!! I’m tempted by the JOVS 🤭. Happy weekend 💜
Thx so much for this - just ordered the Omnilux!
I hope you love it as much as I do!! Thanks for being part of the B50S community and be sure to share with the group your results once you have had a chance to use it for a few months. 💜
Happy sunday everything looks beautiful 🎉 😊 xx
Thanks for watching. Happy Sunday 💕
So helpful to see your journey with this, thank you!
Your welcome. Thanks for watching and glad your found watching my journey helpful. :)
Ok my third try I'm actually going copy paste this from another place on my phone because every time I start to write to you it disappears! It might be somewhere but I can't find it so here goes.
1st model I'm interested in :
Illuminate but it was bought by Lumara. A professional model that a local salon purchased about a week ago. She's used it on me twice and I love it. She's been looking for one for three years and this came highly recommended by someone she knows very well that has her own salon also who happens to be a registered nurse. So far I can't find much on this particular machine although the company has been in business for years so I have to do a little more homework which I will do this week. RUclips has a few videos but not detailed enough for me. I'm going to see her on Thursday to have another treatment. My main reason for going is my regular manicure and a pedicure but she is experimenting on me with this new piece of equipment and I'm loving it . Treatments are five minutes which I love .She owns the salon and has been wanting one of these for three years. I think my enthusiasm in talking to her about it got her motivated to finally make a decision. She goes to different seminars throughout the year looking at new items for her salon and she finally pulled the trigger on this one and I have to say I'm pretty impressed. Clearly I don't need a professional model but like my daughter says go big go home!
Second model It’s by a company called biophotas I believe. But you should be able to find it using Celluma pro as well. My daughter's owned hers for five -8 years. She bought it when she lived in LA and she loves hers. The same model is still being made and it's still 30 minutes per treatment and that kind of eliminates that for me. I haven't done any real homework on that model because of the 30 minute treatment time but haven't ruled it out entirely. It looks identical to her machine but I'm sure they've made changes other than the time for the treatments.
I will look into the machine that you recommended and do a little homework on that one. I really appreciate your rapid response because I have not been able to get Maysama to response to my direct questions. I did however order several products from her especially the one that you use right before the red light therapy. In fact I ordered three bottles one for my daughter and one for the woman at the salon to try with her machine and of course for myself along with a few other things I wanted to try.
After doing a little research I think the curve panels are more suited to me. I like the idea of having an equal amount of red light therapy on both sides of my face and that's what's made up my mind. If you have any knowledge of these two I'd appreciate any information you have to share. I'm anxious to order something this week so I'll be making up my mind but I will do a little research on the one that you recommended as well.
Again thanks so much for your help.
@@cynthiaangrisani5877 How frustrating! This happens to me too 😡
… reading now
@@cynthiaangrisani5877
I’m really impressed by your research! I’m sorry Maysama didn’t get back to you, but it sounds like you’re most interested in a curved panel in the long run.
I’m happy to reach out to Lauren or Bev @masysma on your behalf if you’d like me to..
I’m not familiar with the model that you mentioned, sry. What was the name of the second one? The one your daughter had.
Do keep me posted on what you end up purchasing excited that you’re taking the plunge!
@@cynthiaangrisani5877 one more point and another one you might want to research:
Both the Celluma and the Dermalux Flex MD ‘medically certified’
From Alice of the Tweakments Guide:
“‘certified medical device’, it means it is a medically recognised treatment for conditions such as psoriasis, acne and pain relief. Everyone who sells an LED device bangs on about how it’s ‘NASA-derived technology’ which, yes, that’s technically correct, but they leave you to infer that you are getting top quality scientifically outstanding technology in their device which you generally aren’t. But with these two, you are…”
Second model owned by my daughter I left it out of my post here's the name ! It’s by a company called biophotas I believe. But you should be able to find it using Celluma pro as well. Same company you mentioned!
This is a note I wrote to someone else that has a Facebook video on dermalux flex. Of course no mention of pulse red light therapy on the unit? If you know anything about these questions I would appreciate you sharing.
Is there a pulse feature?
The newest and greatest is pulse red light therapy? Why are some competitors and professional models only five minute treatment time and others are 20 and 30 minutes? Huge difference. I also noticed when the treatment time is 5 to 7 minutes you only do it between two and three times a week but the ones that are 20 and 30 minutes you could do it five times a week?
I use my Omnilux face mask over my lips, neck and sternum area, after I use it on my face, I place it vertically on these areas. So it turns out to be 20minute session altogether.
Also: my beautiful teenage/young adult daughter had severe acne. We purchased a blue light Omnilux and it really cleared up her acne. I highly recommend OmniClear for those peeps struggling with cystic acne.
Great tip!! Thanks for sharing… that seems obvious now that you mentioned it. Out of the box thinking!! Love it!!
I’m not sure I want thought about it..😂🤦♀️😂
@@judybuessing5143 SO true. Great therapy for acne support. I’ve been hearing about magenta light for acne as well (blue+red)! Thanks again for sharing. We all know friends and loved ones that are managing acne. 💜
Great video and informative. I was wanting to use the mask for my sagging jowls. Do you think it works on those?
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it & found it informative. LED may soften the look of fine lines but honestly, it will not help sagging skin unfortunately 💜
Hey! thanks for the review. my skin barrier is damaged and have sensitive skin. Does it helps with building skin barrier and pores?
Yes it does!💜
I’m just in the middle of video, but: I see the most effects around your eyes/ under the brow.. unless it’s also attributed to slight facial expression change.
So my question is about your baseline/ had you also used any other devices, or had treatments over the test period?
Thanks.
*I saw Dr. Ramani came out with a mask that has additional ‘power to the upper lip, And reaches U see the neck to help jowling; super curious. Thanks for the video :>
Love that new masks are coming out with wider coverage areas. MAYSAMA’s Prana mask also covers the lip & has invisible pulsed light ( theoretically to improve absorption & cellular function & health!) So much new technology it’s hard to keep up!
About my photos. I was using microcrrent & the Nira laser on my crows feet only during my LED trial. No, no in office treatments to my face during this year. I was focused on in-office treatments for surgical scar & décolleté rejuvenation.
Thanks for watching & contributing to the conversation 💜
I noticed a difference with your pics. I use mine about 2 times a week. I need to do it more.
Thanks for watching! Yes LED is a lovely home solution for anti-aging.
@@beyond50skincuantas veces a la semana , entiendo muy poco el inglés
Hi there sweetie! I just purchased a Hooterak mask from our amazon, Canada and just after the 1st treatment, I can see a difference! lol...Honestly though....about your lotion, do you put it on "after" your treatment? And also, if this isn't available on our Canadian amazon store, do you have an equivalent you could recommend? Ty!
So glad to hear that you’re enjoying your red light even after the first treatment. My son had the same experience very shortly after using the men’s mask.

Did you receive this mask for free for this demo? Just got a great mask & neck area overage
Yes, I received both the CB & Omnilux masks in gifted PR in 2021/22💜
That's crazy it doesn't have lights above the lip😮 The one i bought does
Right? I know!!! When it was starting this one-year trial year ago and none of the masks that I was looking to have an area above the lip. One big reason (aside from wanting to try for pain) that it got a panel.
Which mask did you buy? I saw both Maysama’s Prana & Dr. Rajani’s masks have lip coverage … the Prana also has pulsed light, Dr R’s has LEDs under the chin and the JOVS has full facial coverage ok laser & LED diodes. I can only imagine Omnilux and Current Body will step up and create new designs to meet demands
. Thanks for watching and for sharing your mask and how you’re liking it. 💜💜
I am considering red light therapy for lips since the masks don't typically work on lips. Have you used or do you know anyone who has used a red light device for lips only?
@@JayneAdams-b9t Yes, people are using red light therapy in the upper lip area & actual overleap area with the new masks, and of course panels cover the full . I’ve used my panel for over a year and I am currently using I’m now using.the Prana mask by Maysama ( Here’s my affiliate link & savings code go.shopmy.us/p-5647751 (CINDY10) It covers the lip and upper lip.

Best wishes on your LED search. Let me know if I can answer any other questions. Covering the lip area is a big concern for mature women over 50. I feel it’s time some of the older mask models stepped up to the newer designs that are addressing more areas of concern . 💜
Thank you for this video and your dedication! 😊
You're so welcome. Thanks for watching and being part of the B50S community. 💜
3:25 this shows 830nm, I was under the impression that 660nm gave the best benefit? Am I mistaken about that?
Hello, Thanks for your question. 830nm is NIR and 660nm is Red Light. They're two different wavelengths of light that perform differently at different cellular level. Red light (660nm) affects cells more superficially and NIR affects cells at deeper layers of the skin. There are best ranges for each type of light therapy based on research studies but on type of light therapy may not be "better" than another. It completely depends on your skincare goals, skin conditions and skin type which type of light therapy is best for you.
Always confer with your medical provider before choosing a skincare device. If you have any additional questions let me know. Happy Sunday💜
@@beyond50skin Thank you for the insightful response
@@esra_erimez Of course any time. There is new research about possible effects of different light waves on different skin tones, especially for those who are concerned about melasma and other photo/heat sensitive skin conditions.
I noticed difference in your skin and the tone. ❤
Thanks for watching and for your comment. I think the tone is the biggest change too. Have a great weekend 💜
@beyond50skin how often do you use it?? And how do you clean that device??
@@sreyen1065 Hi. Thanks for your question … each device has their own parameters on how long to wear it to get the right dose per session. For the current body & Omnilux masks it’s 10 minutes per session and they automatically turn off.
@@sreyen1065 Apologies!! I forgot to explain how you clean LED masks. You can use a warm cloth with mild soap & water. Some masks can withstand alcohol wipes. Cleaning instructions will be in the care manual. The alcohol wipes may have the potential to degrade some silicone masks, so definitely make sure you read the instructions. 💕💜
Perhaps I missed it, but how often to you apply the mask each week?
Every mask or LED panel, device, etc. have specific recommended exposure times. Usually the day after you take your dose. Both the CB and Omnilux mask recommend up to 5 times a week and the treatment time is pre-programmed for 10 min each session. Each treatment includes Red & Infrared Light Therapy. In these two masks you can’t select one or the other. Hope this helps and thanks for being part of the beyond50skin community 💜
Wow! Your video was excellent. I've been considering red light therapy. I look forward to watching the resurfacing treatment. My skin has looked pretty good (for my age), and boom! now it really isn't. Thank you for sharing your experiences. Best to you. :)

Happy to answer any questions you might have in your search for the BEST red light therapy device for so many new ones coming out recently it’s hard to keep up!!
I'm hoping that you can give me a straight answer concerning the Maysama red light panel. Many units are curved therefore they're treating the front of your face and sides equally at the same time and these are more professional units and are more money. Meanwhile Maysama panel has never shown or demonstrated to my knowledge if sides of your face and the front are exposed equally . I'm a little confused on that because no one mentions rotating the face at all or changing the timer to add more time for any kind of rotation .The timer is set to a max and it never once says to turn your head doesn't discuss it or say to extend the time if you have to turn from side to side at what level are is the unit setting at height wise ?
Thanks for your response. Hope this question makes sense?
@@cynthiaangrisani5877 Hi Cynthia,
Your question definitely makes sense.
All flat panels in my opinion cant evenly treat the face. I always just slowly turn my head side to side. I don’t increase the time.
You’re SO right nobody ever mentions that!! I don’t even think I’ve mentioned it the few times I’ve talked about how I use my panels! I tend to use a mask most days. Such an excellent point! I don’t know why it slipped my mind to mention it! 🤪
If you’re not into head turning nor doing all three (sides & front) for the allotted time.. (i’d worry a little bit about overexposure because there’ll be some overlap ) I say go for a curved panel or a mask. Let me know which one you’re thinking about :)
If I were to choose a domed or a 3 sided panel I would try the DERMALUX / Derma Flex … it’s a pricey number; but if you have any interest I can reach out for discount code (no guarantees, but it can’t hurt to ask ) let me know.
I used to have a code, but I don’t think it works anymore. I don’t talk much about it because it’s so expensive. Also I don’t own one myself. But it definitely solves the issue for the sides of the face!!
I’d love an LED red-light body sized dome!
Does the dermalux flex that you're talking about, does it have pulse red light therapy? Other units that don't mention it like the one that I'm trying in the salon it definitely has it? I keep looking for more information and I guess eventually I'll find out but thought you might know? If you have a discount code it might come in handy if I decide that's the one I want. Thank you again.
@@cynthiaangrisani5877 I dont thing the DL has a pulsed light option. I will reach out for a discount code and let you know. :)
I'm trying to make up my mind on the two medically certified units that we talked about. I did find out that the dermalux flex MD does not have red pulse they say intentionally? I think because I've seen the video where the woman that has created the Maysama panel talks about pulse light like it's the best thing ever. I had that in the back of my head like I needed it and now I'm questioning myself. There is a reason why these two certified units have treatments of 20 to 30 minutes and a lot less LED lights than the cheaper pro models which some of them have up to 1000 and they only have 5 minute treatments. I spoke with my daughter today and she says she has never in five years ever use the red pulse feature. My daughter is going on a three week trip to Africa at the end of the month and I'm going to use her panel while she is gone. It would be so nice to have someone to talk to that knew the science behind these two medically certified units and why the treatments are 20 to 30 minutes and no pulse on one of them. I really like the look of the Dermalux Flex model but they don't offer pulse feature but now I'm second-guessing myself where there is a need because the treatments are 20 to 30 minutes and there's a reason for that although I don't have any one to talk to about the scientific information as to why? Hope this makes sense and if you have anything to add I would appreciate it. Let me know if you get a discount code I have a few weeks to research this so I'm not in as much of a hurry since I'm going to use my daughters for three weeks. Of course I've also been told that as long as it's FDA approved it's not the end of the world but definitely don't buy anything that's not FDA approved because it's better than nothing?
By the way I'm watching your video again and I see quite a bit of improvement where you show using the mask for 12 months . Love your videos by the way and I like your attitude. I know you probably mentioned your age but I didn't rerun the video to find out but I'm 75 and I didn't take care of my skin for years but I was very fortunate my mother had beautiful skin and my dad and I think I inherited some of that. I have had some work done recently in the last couple months and laser treatments and a little bit of cosmetic surgery and I'm very happy with it so I'm trying to get in the habit of taking care of my skin which I have for about three months, yay me. You're inspiring me to move forward!
@@cynthiaangrisani5877 I didn’t start taking care of my skin until I was 52. I am now 58 almost 59!!!! I’m so glad you’re enjoying my videos. I made my very first video after a challenging recovery from ablative laser resurfacing (even though it was the one treatment I’ve had that made the biggest difference in my skin, aside from skincare).
I subsequently did a really in-depth recovery video. I was definitely not blessed with good skin & I paid the price for my neglect.
I’m so excited you get to try your daughter’s unit!!! I think that will give you a good idea of the type of results you can get in the short run after five weeks.
As for pulsed light , I just started my deep dive into it as well. I will say I’d use pulse light for hair growth for over 10 years with nice results. I just need to stay consistent!!!
I will continue our conversation and link references and information as I discover more about pulsed light. I talk about it briefly (and I want do a deeper dive into it and DNA repair enzymes)
I’m totally excited you shared your experience with some small cosmetic surgery procedures. I’m thinking about doing a not so small one so keep your eyes peeled for that video! Unless I chicken out lol.
Would LED help increase skin thinness on hands?
@@shthomas7306 They actually make LED masks for the hands. I will have news this fall on a new LED release for the hands.
But it shouldn’t make the skin of the hands thinner. Have you experienced this?
Do you prefer the Omnilux or currentbody?
Hi, excellent question! They are very similar..
I’d go with the one that fits your budget. Omnilux does have s history of manufacturing professional / in-office LED devices. This may, or not be of interest/ of importance. But I thought it would be helpful to know.
Honestly, they’re both great entry level masks. You may enjoy browsing all my Red Light recommendations. 😊Thanks for watching & have an amazing weekend 💜
What type of home, over-the-counter treatments do you use for hyperpigmentation?
Hi thanks for your question. It reminds me I need to do an updated video on this topic 😊. Here is a link to my video on reducing pigment from last year (but it’s still relevant) and to all my favorite products I feel help control pigmentation 👉 shopmy.us/collections/366661 Feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions. Wishing you wonderful evening 💜💕💜
PS also in this link you will find a list of skincare ingredients to watch for as you review products you may already have. That way if you’ve tried one it might be a good idea to try a different formula.
Thank you! The link didn’t bring me to your video but rather to a list of the products you use or have tried. I can probably find that video by doing a quick search.
@@joa.d.4852 My apologies I just fixed the link. It should take you to the video, the list of top ingredients as well as the products I've tried and recommend. Thank you for letting e know the video link wasn't working 😊
Thank you for all of the recommendations!
did you say you drank coffee while wearing the mask? That I would like to see
Ha ha YES!! I think it's in my first LED review, maybe the second.
I have a panel but thinking of getting a mask for convenience. Great results on you!
Thanks for your kind comment. A mask is definitely convenient! Ironically I’m trying a panel to see if I can make myself relax for 10 min 😂😂😂. Whatever works as long as we use it right?! 💕💜💕
Exactly! @@beyond50skin
Have you never thought of doing face aerobics or face muscle exercises for your face?
Yes, I’ve given them a go!
@@beyond50skin So why did you stop? I am curious, it will help me to decide
@@lowland1 a good question! You have to do them SO often to see results (3-6 x a day) I just couldn’t remember to do them
. I was using them to build upper cheeks and I would be great for a few weeks and then I would forget to do them 🤪
I would 100% try it. You have absolutely nothing to lose. If you can keep up with it if you do, please please report back to us!!🙌🙌
@@beyond50skin By the sound of it, doing it 3-6 times a day, you must have been doing the ones by Peta, the Australian lady. I am trying to do the Eva Fraser ones, which is once a day, 4 times a week. I think it is 4 times a week to give your
muscles a rest the rest of the week, so I do wonder if 3-6 times a day is good for you. Also with the Eva Fraser ones you
eventually only do them twice a week as you have then built up your muscles. I am curious which ones you tried.
@@lowland1 I will have to look up her name .... It was a woman on instagram.
How do you combine Retina A with this Light. I have this light mask coming in the mail and Im also starting Reina A cream. Any tips?? Thank you so much. I dont want to burn the tar out of my face
LOL I hear you! Luckiy these are complementary. LED can help reduce inflammation. First follow your Dr's recommendations. But here are some additional tips. My initial prescriber never told me a thing!... so I burned off my face lol! It took me two years to try it again!
Retin A is definitely an ingredient you want to have a bit of respect for, absolutely. From my experience if you've never used it before I'd start w/ 1x week, always in your PM routine.. after cleansing on dry skin.
You can put on bit of moisturizer before... but let it dry down to prevent increased absorption (and a bit after too...this is the sandwich method I used.. after burning my face off the first time). You can also let the Retin A dry down and add a bit of moisturizer after. Once you have no issues, irritation , with 1x a week you can bump it up to 2 then 3, 4, 5, etc. The great thing about Red light is you can use it in the AM to calm down any redness that creeps up with starting Retin A. Once you're used to Retin A you can use your LED AM or PM. Whatever suits your schedule. Red Light in my experience is best used after cleansing before the rest of your skincare. If you have any additional questions let me know. Thanks for being part of the beyond50skin community.💜
Thank you so much for getting back to me.I was worried I could not use these in combination. Its good to know I can. I just got my micro needle Home infusion today as well so Im trying to throw everything at my face at once, I was going to get a face lift but decided to try some of the things all you wonderful ladies have been recommending, Have you used Retina A while also Micro needling? . Or should I just I wait maybe a week or more after doing the micro needling? I will do the sandwich application for sure.@@beyond50skin
Different lighting in every photo of you. Not really THAT much difference.
How often did you use the mask? Daily?
Hi, Thanks for watching. My Omnilux & Current Body LED masks are both 10 min treatments up to 5x a week. I used it 5x week for a year. Now I’m also trying other LED devices and use them 3-5 x a week on a maintenance mode. Overusing red light therapy can actually dry out skin, so only use devices as directed. As is often the case with skincare & skincare devices, 😊more is not necessarily better. This is definitely true in the case of red light Therapy.😊
Does LED help bruises?
@@shthomas7306 I’m not aware of specific instances where LED helps bruising. However there are multiple articles on how LED helps with wound healing 💜
Hi did you have any issue with flushing prior to RED light therapy ? I feel like my flushing is worse since using it
Yes, I definitely have chronic flushing 🙁. Some years it’s better than others. What REDLIIGHT device do you use? That’s a bummer you feel your redness is worse. Is it always there or does it come and go? Sometimes redness is due to medical conditions so talking to a medical professional is always a good first step.
@@beyond50skin im hoping it will improve over time with the red light device, and maybe ive been using it too frquently for my sensitive skin. it improves initially with light then next day a bit red. its not one of the high end well - studied ones that I use which you mentioned so i was taking a bit of a gamble :) but im glad to know it improves your redness and have had chronic flushing. maybe my skin is just getting more bloodflow as it heals. thanks so much for the response. you are absolutely lovely!!
Does it help creapy skin?
@@annmullinax4957 Over time via collagen & elastin production it’s supposed to help with fine lines. I find gentle & regular exfoliation + retinoids and hydrating toners and moisturizers are more helpful for crepey skin.
@@beyond50skinthank you
Upper lip lines are a big target for anti-aging, thank you so much for mentioning that these devices don't have a diode over the upper lip! Very helpful
Glad you found this helpful. If you’re looking for a mask to cover lips. I recommend the Parana by Maysama. I’m getting ready to try it myself & two reputable RUclipsers I know personally recommend it. In addition to having lip coverage it has pulsed light. Very intriguing technology that my LED hair cap has as well. go.shopmy.us/p-4831678 No pressure at all to use my code & link. It’s here for your research and you get a little off if you use code CINDY10. Good luck finding your perfect LED 💜
May I say that 57 is not OLD. You look 57 not 10 years younger and that’s okay.
You should check out Dr. Rajani’s PlasmaGlo LED mask. It actually has a section that goes underneath your chin to target your jowls AND it hits your lips! It’s currently $425. I have it and I love it - I personally think it’s much better than Omnilux. I really appreciate your video on your results, but I wish you would use consistent lighting. It’s really hard to tell what your results are when the lighting is so different in the photos.
Thanks for sharing your experience with the Dr Rajani mask. I’m totally curious about this mask as well.💜
I use the omnilux mask and maysama green rooibos pressed serum. My question is what do use after the 10minute treatment. I’m trying to incorporate my retinol and exfoliate. Do you wash of serum to then add other products? Would appreciate some advice. Thankyou
Hi Thanks for your question. Yes, I usually rinse off the serum, though it's completely optional. I haven't expereinced any issues with leaving it on before putting exfoliant or retinoid. I sometimes feel it leaves too dark a tone if I am wearing daytime (but recent batches are lighter so it can stay on an be used as my antioxidant for the day) If however I am on a Vit C rotation I rinse it off b/f add hydrating toner then Vit C. Hope this helps. If not I will try and clarify :)
It is true thet these masks only last for 24 months? I thought that i lasts forever. In this case its not affor
No I’m not aware that they only last 24mo. if you’re caring for them. The one area of weakness is the cord mask junction. Be particularly careful not to pull on it or let the charger dangle from the mask. 😊
Omni mask have a great customer service my wire came lose sent a pik n they sent me another one i had it for a full year i was shocked they sent me a new one
@@CD-bn7el That's wonderful to hear. They have been very reliable in my experience as well. Love this mask. Thanks for sharing your experience with the beyond50skin community💜
What topicals did you use?
I use the Maysama green Robo serum before LED red light. (I listed it in the description) I have tons of other videos on my skincare routine & skincare products I recommend. Check them out. If you have specific questions on what might be right for your skin don’t hesitate to ask.💜
And you don't have to uee eye protection because it HELPS your eyes.
There are small studies suggesting possible links to the benefits of LED & eye health.
HOWEVER, I’m not aware of any clinical protocols resulting from these studies that currently recommend the use of LED for eye health.
Personally my ophthalmologist isn’t recommending LED for eye health. The data just is there, yet!!.
I recommend NOT using home LED devices (designed for skincare, not the treatment of the eye area ) on your eye area…
Unless recommended by your licensed medical provider.
I’d hate to see anyone experience negative effects using devices designed for skincare, on the delecate eye area.
As a person with a family Hx of MD, detached retina, and Fuchs disease I am excited & I support continued research about the future eye health & LED Therapy💜
Thanks again for sharing😊
Can it help headaches? 😊
What a great question! I have migraines and I haven’t noticed any improvement since using theLED RED LIGHT masks. . I have heard that panels ( I’ve just started using one) can help with pain,TBD.
I have a device that I’ll be reviewing soon. It really helps. Here’s the link from Amazon ./ not affiliate. BOB AND BRAD Eye Massager, EyeOasis 2 a.co/d/hdpdohV . Hope you have a wonderful Sunday. Thanks for watching and being part of the beyond50skin community 💕💜💕
Just lay the unit across lips after
Yes, but then you are doing a portion of your face 2x. I hesitate as more isn't necessarily better. It's a challenge with masks that don't cover the lips. I am trying the new Parana mask by Maysama. Others are raving about Dr Rajani's mask. :) Thanks for watching and wishing you a wonderful week ahead.
@@beyond50skin . Thought about that too . Maybe not good to double up
What a lesson!! 👏👏👏👏👏 Thank you ❤
I’m so glad you found this helpful. Thanks for being part of the B50S community. Have an awesome day. 💕💜💕
@@beyond50skin ❤️
could you use Hyleruonic acid After using the mask?
Hi Thanks for your question. Definitely. I recommend if you live in a dryer climate to top off your post LED routine with a moisturizer or a moisturizing sunscreen. 😊
From the before and after pics looks like your face wrinkled more
Appreciate you watching & sharing your thoughts 😊
I think you look better before also you supposed to be 6" away so why not do the panel.
You obviously need bifocals.Though her skin is far from perfect there is quite an improvement over the twelve month period.There is a definite improvement in skin tone,brightness,texture and firmness.Some of the wrinkles have diminished a bit too.
@@loren7551 it is my opinion. Insulting me is not going to change my opinion. Glad you see it but I don’t. We don’t all need to agree.
Avoid the current body mask - it gave me milasma and more freckles
Oh gosh I’m sorry that happened. Melasma can be so challenging to treat. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Honestly, if you have melasma, it’s possible any LED device, esp one including Near-Infrared (NIR) could trigger melasma.
Melasma is a medical condition and best treated under the care of a Dermatologist.
Wishing you all the best in your skincare journey and again sorry the CB LED mask didn’t work out for you. But appreciate your comment 💜
@@beyond50skin I’ve been on some Reddit communities and others have had this which is annoying cause I know LED seems to work for most people and I wanted to love it. It just didn’t work for me. Thanks for ur videos!
@@olga_b344 So true, not everyone will be a candidate for these home devices. Thanks again for sharing your experience. It’s wonderful to have such lovely subscribers that share the positive & negative so we can all learn from each other 💜
3 6 12 months you look better the others seem you went back to beginning
thanks for sharing
you also had ablative resurfacing so I am not sure this is an accurate representation of your skin--it does look great but you have done lots of work.
True, I had ablative laser in 2019. I’ve been very upfront about that and all the in-office treatments I’ve done. That doesn’t mean I’m done taking care of my skin. As I mention in the video, I had no in-office treatments during this 1 year LED trial. Aging continues even you choose to have in-office treatments up to and including a face lift. You cant stop caring for your skin. It's possible my results are less dramatic but I am please with my LED results, especially for helping with controlling inflammation. Have you tried LED Red light? If so did you find it helpful? Thanks so much for watching and for sharing your thoughts. 💕💜💕
Nice video but what you ate in the last year is 99 percent of your skin and body
Thanks for watching! So true it’s important to watch your diet and of course exercise and get good sleep … all those healthy habits contribute to great skin💜😊💕
Lol. Green tea...drink it dont wear it......eat well
Oh yes, definitely good as an antioxidant tea to drink as well! 🙌💜
