I’ve bought the bio max 900 on the 28th of February mainly because of you and other reasearch. Till this day I have not received tracking information or any information that it has been shipped. I feel scammed and I wasted over 1k usd. I paid for shipping which said 1-5 buisness days I guess that was a lie.
@@chel6861 Hey. I'm sorry to hear this. Have you heard anything from platinum? Have you reached out to them? They have a phone number you can call on their website (it's Call Us Toll Free: 844-533-4769 (Support hours: 9a-5p PST, M-F) ) I know MANY people who have ordered panels from Platinum LED recently and haven't had issues. So i can assure you they're a legit company. I'm eager to hear how you get on with this. If you don't make progress please let me know and I'll help out personally :)
I agree that both Mito PRO 300 and Platinum Biomax are probably the best value panels on the market today. I am not sure how did you come with those prices comparison. Current price for Biomax 300 is $629 add a table stand $109 equals $738. With your discount 5% would be $701. Mito PRO 300 already has stand included in the price so it will cost $349 and with discount $331. That is half price! I love both panels but for frugal people like me I would choose for face beauty therapy Mito as the power consumption is also less, so will your electricity bill be! Mito uses 90W Biomax 157W. If you use light for beauty therapy mostly on face and neck, smaller light perfectly covers that area. If you do light therapy wearing clothes, (shirt) most Biomax light will bounce from it or go above your head. Biomax will benefit people who do larger area therapy naked as it's larger panel. Whichever you buy I am sure you will be very happy. Thanks for your video.
@@beatajesiak3280 you should do light therapy on bare skin but many people do face light therapy without taking 👕 off so in that case if you have larger light, the light shining on clothes will be wasting. If you do light therapy naked it's fine, but if you still keep some clothes on- placing light on desk and doing therapy for face, you don't benefit from larger light. Everything depends how you plan to use your light. I hope this clarify what I meant.
Hey yeah the Platinum prices all went up after I filmed this. And I forgot to account for the stand in this video. So I slipped up on that part. The main emphasis in this video is finding a panel for beauty - I have a video for price conscious people here - ruclips.net/video/7MqNVgo3fm8/видео.html Because of the more diverse wavelength offerings (especially the blue LED) and the larger panel size AND the nicer control panel and stand (I have a few friends in the beauty space, and they want their tools to not only look nice, but be easy to use as well) the Platinum panel is the standout. Re power consumption - again beauty is the focus here - I think back to my beauty obsessed friends and I can tell you now they don't care how many watts their hair straightener or blower or nail dryer is drawing. They just want something that works.
@@cinco10 no. Not from personal experience. But I have read that the standard 660 wavelength works for wound healing. And that is used on most red light therapy panels if you want to get a basic one for a little less money. If I were to choose a panel though, it would be one that also has 630 wavelength like the MitoAdapt or in the Infared Flex panels. Since both are said to work for wound healing. And 810 wavelength for nerve regeneration. Which both panels have(more in the MitoAdapt).
Thanks for this. Im my search for a skin rejuvenation LED devices, I stumbled on RL panels and realized for the price, I could benefit my entire body. Although Mito has more LEDs in 630nm, I feel the additional WLs will be a better choice. About to get 2x900's and will use your code :)
Thanks for this.. super helpful. I feel very informed as a buyer. I recently bought the Omnilux contour mask but I’m thinking about returning it to purchase one of these. Do you think I’m better off with a table top version rather than a mask? Also wondering if I should just go for a full body panel… my budget is $1000. I do like that the biomax has all the wavelengths, including blue. I didn’t realize there were more than just beauty benefits when I bought the omnilux mask.
Hey, thanks for your comment. Personally - yes I think a panel is better than the mask. A panel will put out more power, and be better value, plus you can use it on other areas of the body. I am currently doing a long term review with the Omnilux Mens Mask (first review is live here - ruclips.net/video/mwjWotblYF8/видео.html but I will be publishing an indepth review soon). I'm not using my panels while I do this review, and I'm noticing some of my dental pain is returning. I put this down to the lower power output in the Mask compared to the more penetrating power in a panel. Body panel vs tabletop - check this video out - ruclips.net/video/XdxffTdHrjY/видео.html If you can afford it, then yes a larger panel is better value and more practical.
You sold me, Alex! I had left a comment on an earlier video last week about products that content creators make a commission on as being a hard NO for me. Well apparently it was a soft no haha! Great videos and im now subscribed to your channel 👍
I would add to this list Hooga 360 ultra, which I intend to buy, or Bestqool BQ 150 - this one has a good price, the good wavelengths but I am concerned about EMF - plus the irradiation is lower compared to Hooga.
I’ve bought the bio max 900 on the 28th of February mainly because of you and other reasearch. Till this day I have not received tracking information or any information that it has been shipped. I feel scammed and I wasted over 1k usd. I paid for shipping which said 1-5 buisness days I guess that was a lie. They also always change their prices on the website and my bit-defender anti virus system always flags me saying the platinum led website has an untrusted certificate. What is going on ??
I read quite a few negative reviews on Biomax, so we went with Hooga Pro 4500. Ordered it late Friday and received it the following Friday. So far, very pleased.
@@annanorth7997 You're so lucky cause till this day I still haven't received mine and on trust pilot reviews on Platinum led its literally majority of all negative reviews. They emailed me back saying they are having a ''delay'' and I seriously don't understand how.
Hey Alex, I love these thorough videos of yours! I bought the platinum biomax 450 about 2 years ago using your discount. It doesn't have the blue light, and the red and infrared can't be used one at a time, only together. I'm wary of blue light therapy since it is the same as the blue light emitted from phone and computer screens, and the consensus is that blue light is actually damaging to skin. So is the biomax 450 that I have as good as the biomax 350 of today? Minus the blue light, of course. Thanks a bunch~
Thank you :) Yeah the BioMax panels have changed a lot over the years! The new ones are quite neat with their remotes, apps and touch screen control panels. The new Biomax panels do have 2% of their LEDS emitting blue light - but they also have a switch that disables the blue for those that dont' want it. The other changes mean the new panels put out a lot more power and as I said earlier they also have the nicer control panel. I wouldn't upgrade for these extra features UNLESS you were planning on getting another panel to add to your setup :)
@Alex Fergus | Red Light Therapy Reviews. Hey thank you for the advice and for always answering everybody's questions! I am saving up for the big Bio Max 900 so together with my 450 they will cover everything. And by then they will surely have even more features!
Hey, yes. As long as it's not a fresh burn - it's important that the burn has completely cooled as you don't wan to be adding any thermal heat to a burn. But yes it will be ok for open wounds.
I came into this as a skeptic. I did order (through your link) & just received the Hooga HG300, (660nm & 850nm) a minimal entry level unit to experiment with. After seeing your video here, I was slightly disappointed 😕that studies say using around 630nm is suppose to be more ideal. I did read that 660nm goes slightly deeper (than 630nm), to help stimulate collagen. Oh well, this is confusing. I do like the tremendous soothing, relaxation & meditative effect of red light panel. Perhaps, I will upgrade at later time to an RLT unit that has more than 2 wavelength selections. Thanks for informative channel & your website 👍
Hi, when will you be doing an update video on panels for beauty use as i'd like to invest in one and would like your opinion. Im based in the UK so thinking of the Rojo Refine 180, but will wait to buy if you are going to release a new video soon 😊
I'm sorry, but I won't have a video specifically for beauty soon. The Rojo is a great panel, and I think you will be happy with it. Check out these articles on my website:www.lighttherapyinsiders.com/tag/beauty/
Hi, Alex. Wonderful video, as always. I know that you were hyper-focused on 630 and 850 wavelengths. I've purchased a larger panel (LightpathLED Pro Series Large) to help with both skin rejuvenation and tendon, joint, and bone repair. I noticed that while it has 5 wavelengths its lowest level is 620. What is the difference between 620 vs 630 (please don't say 10) ;)
Lol. TBH there ins't really a big difference in terms of benefits and mitochorondrrial absorption. Some even argue there isn't really much of a difference between say 620nm and 650nm for instance - as long as it's in that red range.
The issue is some studies are done just looking at sat 620 and others at say 650, so that makes things a little messy - i.e. there may be a study showing massive skin improvements with 620nm. But that study didn't look at 650nm. Does that mean 650nm doesn't help the skin? No of course not. Is 620nm then better than 650nm - we don't know.
Really appreciate all the work you do here, sheesh! I pulled the trigger on the MitoPro, crossing my fingers for a positive ROI. I'm also kinda hoping it might help with some mild inflammation. Meh, we'll see. Don't know if I don't try, right? Thanks for the discount. :)
Hi Alex. Thank you for all the good information. Your reviews help a lot. Would you be able to Review the red light panel EXESAS and give your thoughts and opinion on it. Thank you
Hey, I'm sorry if this comes through twice - I hadn't heard of this company but I notice one of their panels is identical to Bon Charges panel - which I reviewed here - ruclips.net/video/xsreUs3MUBk/видео.html - and that panel didn't perform very well. I will add this to my list though :)
thx for the video - Would be cool if you could cover something about the power /joules the light is delivered by. How many mW2 are needed for sufficient the light to penetrate the skin
Thank you Alex this is very informative about skin health. Also it’s good to know red light helps with bone health. Have you done another video on bone health? Maybe I can get a device for my mom also. Perhaps the Miro Red would be a good option for her to start
Hi Alex, I am so glad to find your channel. Thank you for your information! Just wondering which one is a good choice for face and neck eczema, itching Skin and even broken skin after scratching on the face in Australia. Thank you!
Hey yes check this out - ruclips.net/video/aOR0Nn0-PAE/видео.html Also consider this - ruclips.net/video/3PamzmX8c74/видео.html I will be doing an updated travel video as I have no many devices to showcase now and each of them have their advantages.
Oh what a can of worms you have opened (American terminology!). I'm gad you're getting people thinking and asking questions about RLT. Thanks for the video. Love the thumbnail. 🙂
Hello. I’m a little confused. I was first looking at the Platinum Biomax 900 for skin health…. Then I watched another video about fat loss. I don’t want to loose facial fat but wouldn’t mind in other areas 😊
Hello Alex, so many options to choose from. I like you though and suggestion of which one to purchase , the MitoPRO Mega or MitoPRO 750+1500 or MitoADAPT MAX?
Also can you tell us about the best time to use it. There js so many mixed information out there! Ideally I’d like to wash my face then put on my skincare THEN go do a treatment but is that.going to run my skincare’s or it less effective since most units say “ speak to your doctor l “ who thinks this kinda stuff is foolish. Thanks in advance
You could always get the Mito and then source a more specialised beauty product (like a beauty mask). I'm going to be reviewing more of these products this year.
Hi Alex, would it be possible to give a review on JOVS Alva Wireless LED Light Therapy Device? I'm interested in it because it does seem to have all the necessary wavelengths, including 460nm (blue light). Thank you!
Great video as always, Alex. Thank you so much for your in-depth reviews, I love all the technical aspects. I have a Biomax 900 that I love, and recently bought a Maysama Pulse 40 table top that is specifically designed for skin health. After using it for about a month, I think I made a mistake. I bought it primarily due to the pulsing feature, but compared to an equivalent number of LEDs on my 900, there’s absolutely no comparison in power. I don’t have the tools to measure power output, but it generally seems like quite a weak device. As a secondary use, I thought that with it being so small and light, that I could easily take it on travel to treat multiple areas of my body for a longer period of time, than I do at home with the 900. But now, I don’t know that it’s a worthwhile option for travel use. I would really love it if you could do a review of the Maysama. I’m very interested in the power output, as it applies to both face treatment, or for use on travel. I think for many of us, once we experience the benefits of red light therapy, we want to be able to bring it along while away from home. I thought about buying a smaller Biomax for travel, but they’re still fairly heavy and much bulkier than the Maysama device. Plus, the built-in stand on the Pulse40 really is fantastic to easily set up in any space while traveling.
Hi, thanks for your comments. Maysama - ok I'll add it to my list, though I already have a lot of products to review in 2024. So i don't know when I will be able to review it. I also have some videos on travel coming out soon - they may help :)
Thanks for the info, Alex, so interesting and useful for many of us who want led therapy for skin condition. I’m confused about wavelengths. I have Hoogapro300 for face anti-aging issues like wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, tightening, uneven tone, etc, but now think that I’m missing 630nm 😢. Doesn’t 660nm, target either 630, cause is less wavelengths and be cover in the 660 spectrum? Could you explain how wavelengths work? I’m confused in this basic theory. Do you have a video where you explain how wevelenghts works? Thanks, Alex.
Hey. I don't have a video on the topic (yet). I have written some blogs about it though - this may help: www.alexfergus.com/blog/everything-you-need-to-know-about-red-light-therapy that may help. Pretty much though each wavelength is a different colour - or a shade of color. And science is showing that different wavelengths have different effects on the body/health etc. The Hooga is still going to be good for skin. But yes there are better options with more wavelengths in it. But again the Hooga will still offer some benefit :)
What’s the most powerful small panel you recommend ? I want it to place it on my stomach to see if it helps with stomach inflammation, pain, and heal intestines from possible leaky gut or ulcers…
Hey if you just want power - then check out the IronForge by chroma - aferg.co/chroma (code ALEX Should work on this). I'm working on my review but this thing is super powerful!! You can listen to my interview with the inventor of that product here - ruclips.net/video/kSRwS7tujM0/видео.html
Could I ask for beauty and skin concerns would you recommend the biomax 300 or the dermaflex flexible panel?? Wondered if there were similar specs.. thanks so much. Your videos are insanely helpful!!
Hey Alex, getting ready to pull the trigger. Assume all is equal.. In light of recent videos would you rather have 4 Mito Pro modular (2x 750s 2x 1500s) setup or buy the (MitoPro Ultra + 1 750)... There's technically more LEDs 900 vs. 750 with the modular but a bit more expensive
Ohhh great question! So I'm yet to test a full sized 'all in one' body panel. Well I did test the Rojo 3000 - ruclips.net/video/1slJcRMbeiI/видео.html - which is a half body panel I guess. I do like the idea with the one large panel, and the light coverage would be better. Plus it's going to look nicer as well. So yeah I'd probably go with that!
Your two top picks vary a lot in their proportion of lights. I can't discern if one proportion of lights is better than another...is there some way to evaluate that, like for example is it better to have a proportion that is closest to natural sunlight? The different wavelengths seem to do a lot of similar things. I'd love to see a video on this if you don't have one already that I missed.
Hey, yes good points. Unfortunately though it's too tricky to say - especially as there is so much evidence showing that the light has systemic benefits -so treating one area will provide benefits elsewhere. If acne isn't a problem I wouldn't worry about the blue LEDs however.
I’m all to this red light therapy. I’m looking for one that covers head to toe Any suggestions. I needed for face ., hair , legs. An also lymphatic drainages any advice. Thank you for sharing. ❤ .
Have you watched my 2024 Comparison series video? Any of the top 5 would be a great overall panel.ruclips.net/video/FFCrl11AIbY/видео.htmlsi=dlFL2GuCwPZFuwbd
The best beauty masks (like OmniLux) use 633nm and 830nm. You mention 660 and 850 as the ones to use for beauty. Can you explain why those instead of 633/830?
Hey yes I'm working on a resource that will help with this. There is a lot of overlap between the 830 and 850nm wavelengths (if you look at the LED output of a 850nm LED you will see there is 830nm light as well - this works the other way also). As for the 630 vs 660 - the research benefits seem to be quite similar with these two. I think a lot of panels use the 660nm LED's as it is cheaper to produce. Fortunately though there are panels like the BioMax and the MitoADAPT that do utilise a combination of wavelengths to ensure you can getting exposure to an assortment of wavelengths.
I purchased the mito mobile flex used your code. The NIR lights dont seem turned on at all. Is that normal ? Might use your code and buy the 300 panel. Thanks Alex.
Thank you Alex! 🙂I have always heard that mini panels were perfect for face therapy but with this information I see it is not like this. I was very excited to buy GembaRed Vector Mini Red and NIR LED Light Panel it has the same wavelenghts of Mito Pro300 but it is mini, so it won't work in order to have the therapy in my entire face, right!?
You don't have to have a panel that will cover your whole face - it's just that you wont' get a full face treatment thats all - OR you move the device around to hit all the areas. You're better off getting something that is large enough to cover your entire face :)
Thank you so much for the info. I wanted to buy the Mitored because it was cheaper than the other one but shipping to Canada was 139. Does anyone know of any other panel that might be just as good but that shipping is not 1/5 of the cost
Hey Alex, I’m looking into buying the Biomax300. Can you use the panels on tanned skin? Is it recommended to use it before or after tanning? Also, can you use the panel if you have hyperpigmentation spots?
Hmm, I'm not sure about using it before or after tanning. Hyperpignmentation - I wouldn't use the Biomax at full power. Especially the NIR - turn it down to say 20% to minimise the risk of them getting worse.
Thank you for this! The hoogapro one was the one I was going to get lol. I want them for mostly anti aging but also joint health. Would the hoogapro still be okay to get? Like could it still help with anti aging a bit?
Thanks so much for doing this video. I have a question about hyperpigmentation. My dermatologist told me these lights will cause hyper pigmentation and they do not treat it or improve it and she definitely recommended against it. But I don’t think she knows what she’s talking about. I have no idea where she got her info from but she was pretty adamant about it. I read somewhere that the infrared light setting can make the existing hyper pigmentation worse. I have melasma, sunspots and freckles so my complexion is a mottled hyper pigmented mess and no existing dermatological treatments have helped. I am hoping red light therapy is the answer but the last thing I wanna do is make this worse. You sound like you really know what you’re talking about so I’m hoping you will be able to reply to this comment. I’m considering the bio max panel you recommend in this video unless you suggest something else to better target my concern. I heard pulsed light is better but don’t know if that’s true or not. I’m looking to treat face neck and décolleté areas. Thank you very much
Honestly I don't know yet. My team and I are looking into this and we will publish a blog/video when we have more info. But there is a lot of discussion on this topic in our FB group - facebook.com/groups/lighttherapyinsiders
Hey, not of the smaller panels, but if you watch my 2024 comparison video, all the companies listed have smaller devices that are good. Or you can watch my reviews on Hogga panels. It is the larger 300 LED panel, but again, the same company, thus the same features.ruclips.net/video/FFCrl11AIbY/видео.htmlsi=xuJl2JzVMCbTyFuO
Hi! How long would you recommend for treatment time with being I’m assuming about 6 inches from the panel? I’m wondering how long I need to do everyday with either the Mito pro 300 and biomax 300? Thanks so much. I will be using your code :)
I would start with just a few minutes a day and increase time every few days. Dosing is different for everyone and you just need to experiment. ruclips.net/video/dynWCpql2ew/видео.htmlsi=Xkx-NorDfd7eCTFg
Hi Alex: Question for you, instead of buying multiple panels, can I achieve the benefits of beauty red light if I bought 2 BioMax 900 and treat my entire face and body? I'd rather invest in a motorized stand and treat at once. PLMK your thoughts. Thanks much
Alex, is red light therapy, known to help with neuropathy? my mom has cancer and previous chemo treatments, damaged her nerves in her feet and now she has neuropathy in her feet… Would red light therapy be good for her?
Hey. Yes it is. Check our our FB group - facebook.com/groups/lighttherapyinsiders - as there are users in there who have had good results with RLT and this condition.
Hey this was filmed well before I had used a BBL panel. I will do updated video on beauty/skin soon. You can also check this blog out - www.lighttherapyinsiders.com/red-light-therapy-for-skin-benefits/
Can you please review the celluma pro ? It’s really expensive but it’s been recommended to me by some estheticians I’ve been told it’s the best one out there but it’s so pricey I’m not sure it’ll be worth the money and there’s no returns 😭
Hi Alex, quick question. I'm in Belgium and almost purchased the biomax... Until I saw the shipping costs. Any ideas for a European based supplier with the same specifications? THANKS A BUNCH!
Hey, Ohh I know the shipping rates are nuts! I do have a video coming out looking at European options (be sure to subscribe and stay tuned for this) Otherwise I'd go with either CytoLED - aferg.co/cytoled or LuminousRed - aferg.co/luminous I have a discount code for these companies as well - it's code ALEX
@@LightTherapyInsiders Hello Alex, did you release already the European options video? I am also looking for one and I am a bit lost which panel I should buy... I wouldnt want to invest in the mask because panels seems better
Hi I’m just a bit confused, so the 630 is better than one with 660 for skin regarding collagen improvement? I’m not to sure which one to buy and just thought of getting the one with the higher number for collagen.😊
Hey. Ok so my plan for this year is to go through the literature and build out a skin protocol - i.e what is the best wavelength, intensity, duration, frequency of use etc. I really want to take a deep dive into this. In the mean time though - 630 or 660 are both going to be fine for collagen.
You order from their US website and deal with possible import duties. Have you seen this video? These companies all make a smaller panel. ruclips.net/video/mMj7JYqnTM8/видео.htmlsi=qIo3lCvm7GjXr4vz or this one:ruclips.net/video/BqyXgpDfNd4/видео.htmlsi=VUFcK9GnE9oXhjZp
bacteria do not cause acne. bacteria are simply there to clean up unhealthy tissues. acne is an inside job, but red light stimulates the production of new healthy dermal tissue when lifestyle issues are addressed.
Bacteria definately cause acne. They feed off the the oil and dead skin inside the pores and as a byproduct release chemicals that cause inflammation. In response a pimple is formed to help kill the bacteria
I only received that after I filmed this series - i have filmed my review and it will be up on my YT channel later this week. Be sure to subscribe to be notified when that review is live :)
So is the Mitro pro 300 worth investing in for beauty since I can’t afford the cost of the other one? Also are there any dangers like emf’s or other things that could cause us harm using these?
Can you compair a Rouge G3 Ultimate plane (72" X 24") 1200 LEDs cost $4,499 to other full body panels that size like 4 BIOMAX 900's (72"X 24" ) 1200 LED's cost $4,786. Which is better or is there another option out there ?
I am trying to purchase one of the panels you recommend but the code Alex doesn’t seem valid anymore. Do you have a current discount code for the mitopro300? Thanks!
I do want to compare it to the Dermalux Flex MD product I reviewed at some point. Have you seen that review?ruclips.net/video/yWgWWQl7fuE/видео.htmlsi=TrT-x72LeWCApzrR
Thanks for sharing your opinion BUT should we all jump on the band wagon and the MASSIVE TREND/PUSH lately for LED red light Therapy? I am concerned because of these kinds of studies : "The Secret Risks Of LED Lights One of the main concerns with LED lights relates to red LED lights, one of the oldest varieties still on the market. Those red LEDs were made with a substance called AGA (aluminum gallium arsenide), which is toxic in concentrated amounts. If you are directly exposed to this material on work sights or through contact with broken bulbs, it can be hazardous to your health. Side effects of toxicity from AGA include respiratory, kidney, and reproductive issues in laboratory studies. The lead content in red LEDs is also toxic when directly exposed, and should be avoided." Again, there is such a huge push right now for Red light 'Therapy " and many companies selling devices and making lots of money. But are these REALLY and effective? Is this ALL B.S and just another cash grab trend? Why when one goes to a hardware store to purchase lights bulbs there is a WARNING on the box for all LED light bulbs ) but NOT on the boxes for incandescent bulbs ) ?
Hey. Like many things in our life today - the manufacturing does require a lot of chemicals and risk - I would like to think the companies involved in this are using all the safety gear. But once the LED's are made - as long as one isn't smashing them to bits, I don't see how they can be dangerous? But i'm no expert on LED manufacturing.
So I’m saving for a Biomax 450 or 900 but while I’m doing that I am using the total body enhancement/ergoline beauty angel 7200. How do the specs compare to the average body panel? I’m I wasting my time?
Hey, I just had a quick look - these are big units! I'm guessing you use one at at clinic? I couldn't find the exact wavelengths they emit, but i'm sure they are beneficial so I'd keep using it :) Unless the price is extreme - then you may decide to put that towards your savings instead!
Wow thanks for this - I just spent 30mins looking into their products! I'm going to see if I can get one of their home user devices. They look well built and simple to use :)
It’s still way too expensive.. If it wasn’t for the hyped popularity these devices wouldn’t be anywhere near the prices companies are charging..

✅ My BioMax 900 versus MitoPRO 1500 review: aferg.co/biomax-vs-mitopro
I’ve bought the bio max 900 on the 28th of February mainly because of you and other reasearch. Till this day I have not received tracking information or any information that it has been shipped. I feel scammed and I wasted over 1k usd. I paid for shipping which said 1-5 buisness days I guess that was a lie.
@@chel6861 Hey. I'm sorry to hear this. Have you heard anything from platinum? Have you reached out to them? They have a phone number you can call on their website (it's Call Us Toll Free: 844-533-4769 (Support hours: 9a-5p PST, M-F) )
I know MANY people who have ordered panels from Platinum LED recently and haven't had issues. So i can assure you they're a legit company.
I'm eager to hear how you get on with this. If you don't make progress please let me know and I'll help out personally :)
Could you please compare some of the flexible panels such as dermalux, celluma, and the less expensive panels on Amazon, @Alex?
@@LightTherapyInsidersit got shipped finally also do you know why it’s shipped from Hong Kong? I thought it was made in america
Hello, your link for the bio max is not working. Is there no longer a discount available
Thanks for making this for the people who want more anti-aging!! 😃
No worries. I have more content on this topic coming out this week :)
I agree that both Mito PRO 300 and Platinum Biomax are probably the best value panels on the market today. I am not sure how did you come with those prices comparison. Current price for Biomax 300 is $629 add a table stand $109 equals $738. With your discount 5% would be $701. Mito PRO 300 already has stand included in the price so it will cost $349 and with discount $331. That is half price! I love both panels but for frugal people like me I would choose for face beauty therapy Mito as the power consumption is also less, so will your electricity bill be! Mito uses 90W Biomax 157W. If you use light for beauty therapy mostly on face and neck, smaller light perfectly covers that area. If you do light therapy wearing clothes, (shirt) most Biomax light will bounce from it or go above your head. Biomax will benefit people who do larger area therapy naked as it's larger panel. Whichever you buy I am sure you will be very happy. Thanks for your video.
Oh no, I didn't know that about clothing during LED therapy. Thanks for the info!
Shouldn't you use light therapy on bare skin? Your comment about clothes is confusing.
@@beatajesiak3280 you should do light therapy on bare skin but many people do face light therapy without taking 👕 off so in that case if you have larger light, the light shining on clothes will be wasting. If you do light therapy naked it's fine, but if you still keep some clothes on- placing light on desk and doing therapy for face, you don't benefit from larger light. Everything depends how you plan to use your light. I hope this clarify what I meant.
Hey yeah the Platinum prices all went up after I filmed this. And I forgot to account for the stand in this video. So I slipped up on that part.
The main emphasis in this video is finding a panel for beauty - I have a video for price conscious people here - ruclips.net/video/7MqNVgo3fm8/видео.html
Because of the more diverse wavelength offerings (especially the blue LED) and the larger panel size AND the nicer control panel and stand (I have a few friends in the beauty space, and they want their tools to not only look nice, but be easy to use as well) the Platinum panel is the standout.
Re power consumption - again beauty is the focus here - I think back to my beauty obsessed friends and I can tell you now they don't care how many watts their hair straightener or blower or nail dryer is drawing. They just want something that works.
Yes you should use it on Bare Skin :)
Thank you. Can you do one like this but for nerve repair/regeneration and wound healing? Please and thank you 🙏🏾
Hey. I'll add this to my list.
@@LightTherapyInsiders thank you kindly 😁
Did you find a good That works for wound healing?? Face/body
@@cinco10 no. Not from personal experience. But I have read that the standard 660 wavelength works for wound healing. And that is used on most red light therapy panels if you want to get a basic one for a little less money. If I were to choose a panel though, it would be one that also has 630 wavelength like the MitoAdapt or in the Infared Flex panels. Since both are said to work for wound healing. And 810 wavelength for nerve regeneration. Which both panels have(more in the MitoAdapt).
Thank you for your response.
Thanks for this. Im my search for a skin rejuvenation LED devices, I stumbled on RL panels and realized for the price, I could benefit my entire body. Although Mito has more LEDs in 630nm, I feel the additional WLs will be a better choice. About to get 2x900's and will use your code :)
Actually, just realized im more interested in 660nm for collagen and Biomax is certainly the winner.
Hey. well done on doing your research and making an informed decision. Enjoy your new panels :)
I bought a PlatinumLED full body panel over a year ago after watching Alex's video.
How are you finding it?
Thanks for this.. super helpful. I feel very informed as a buyer. I recently bought the Omnilux contour mask but I’m thinking about returning it to purchase one of these. Do you think I’m better off with a table top version rather than a mask? Also wondering if I should just go for a full body panel… my budget is $1000. I do like that the biomax has all the wavelengths, including blue. I didn’t realize there were more than just beauty benefits when I bought the omnilux mask.
Hey, thanks for your comment.
Personally - yes I think a panel is better than the mask. A panel will put out more power, and be better value, plus you can use it on other areas of the body.
I am currently doing a long term review with the Omnilux Mens Mask (first review is live here - ruclips.net/video/mwjWotblYF8/видео.html but I will be publishing an indepth review soon). I'm not using my panels while I do this review, and I'm noticing some of my dental pain is returning. I put this down to the lower power output in the Mask compared to the more penetrating power in a panel.
Body panel vs tabletop - check this video out - ruclips.net/video/XdxffTdHrjY/видео.html
If you can afford it, then yes a larger panel is better value and more practical.
Blue light is only for acne 💙 the mask thst you wear is better...too far away from face & skin....
@@LightTherapyInsidersno...a mask is better and has contact near the face
You sold me, Alex! I had left a comment on an earlier video last week about products that content creators make a commission on as being a hard NO for me. Well apparently it was a soft no haha! Great videos and im now subscribed to your channel 👍
Ha! Thanks. I do try and add value with my content :)
I would add to this list Hooga 360 ultra, which I intend to buy, or Bestqool BQ 150 - this one has a good price, the good wavelengths but I am concerned about EMF - plus the irradiation is lower compared to Hooga.
Hooga Ulta 360 looks like a good panel (it was released after this video).
Yes!! I've been looking forward to this one Alex! Finally getting my panel and using your code, thank you so much for all the work you do! 🥳🥳🥳
Awesome! Thank you!
I’ve bought the bio max 900 on the 28th of February mainly because of you and other reasearch. Till this day I have not received tracking information or any information that it has been shipped. I feel scammed and I wasted over 1k usd. I paid for shipping which said 1-5 buisness days I guess that was a lie. They also always change their prices on the website and my bit-defender anti virus system always flags me saying the platinum led website has an untrusted certificate. What is going on ??
I read quite a few negative reviews on Biomax, so we went with Hooga Pro 4500. Ordered it late Friday and received it the following Friday. So far, very pleased.
@@annanorth7997 You're so lucky cause till this day I still haven't received mine and on trust pilot reviews on Platinum led its literally majority of all negative reviews. They emailed me back saying they are having a ''delay'' and I seriously don't understand how.
Hey I see now you have received your tracking number :) Be sure to let me know if you have any issues ok.
Hey Alex, I love these thorough videos of yours! I bought the platinum biomax 450 about 2 years ago using your discount. It doesn't have the blue light, and the red and infrared can't be used one at a time, only together. I'm wary of blue light therapy since it is the same as the blue light emitted from phone and computer screens, and the consensus is that blue light is actually damaging to skin. So is the biomax 450 that I have as good as the biomax 350 of today? Minus the blue light, of course. Thanks a bunch~
Thank you :)
Yeah the BioMax panels have changed a lot over the years! The new ones are quite neat with their remotes, apps and touch screen control panels.
The new Biomax panels do have 2% of their LEDS emitting blue light - but they also have a switch that disables the blue for those that dont' want it.
The other changes mean the new panels put out a lot more power and as I said earlier they also have the nicer control panel.
I wouldn't upgrade for these extra features UNLESS you were planning on getting another panel to add to your setup :)
@Alex Fergus | Red Light Therapy Reviews. Hey thank you for the advice and for always answering everybody's questions! I am saving up for the big Bio Max 900 so together with my 450 they will cover everything. And by then they will surely have even more features!
Hi Alex, great video, is RLT suitable to use on broken skin for wound healing, e.g. open wounds from eczema
Hey, yes. As long as it's not a fresh burn - it's important that the burn has completely cooled as you don't wan to be adding any thermal heat to a burn. But yes it will be ok for open wounds.
I came into this as a skeptic. I did order (through your link) & just received the Hooga HG300, (660nm & 850nm) a minimal entry level unit to experiment with. After seeing your video here, I was slightly disappointed 😕that studies say using around 630nm is suppose to be more ideal. I did read that 660nm goes slightly deeper (than 630nm), to help stimulate collagen. Oh well, this is confusing. I do like the tremendous soothing, relaxation & meditative effect of red light panel. Perhaps, I will upgrade at later time to an RLT unit that has more than 2 wavelength selections. Thanks for informative channel & your website 👍
Thanks for the support, I appreciate it. Many of my Facebook group members started with that panel and are happy with it.
Hi, when will you be doing an update video on panels for beauty use as i'd like to invest in one and would like your opinion. Im based in the UK so thinking of the Rojo Refine 180, but will wait to buy if you are going to release a new video soon 😊
I'm sorry, but I won't have a video specifically for beauty soon. The Rojo is a great panel, and I think you will be happy with it. Check out these articles on my website:www.lighttherapyinsiders.com/tag/beauty/
Thanks Alex, gone ahead and ordered it!
Hi, Alex. Wonderful video, as always. I know that you were hyper-focused on 630 and 850 wavelengths. I've purchased a larger panel (LightpathLED Pro Series Large) to help with both skin rejuvenation and tendon, joint, and bone repair. I noticed that while it has 5 wavelengths its lowest level is 620. What is the difference between 620 vs 630 (please don't say 10) ;)
Lol.
TBH there ins't really a big difference in terms of benefits and mitochorondrrial absorption. Some even argue there isn't really much of a difference between say 620nm and 650nm for instance - as long as it's in that red range.
The issue is some studies are done just looking at sat 620 and others at say 650, so that makes things a little messy - i.e. there may be a study showing massive skin improvements with 620nm. But that study didn't look at 650nm. Does that mean 650nm doesn't help the skin? No of course not. Is 620nm then better than 650nm - we don't know.
Really appreciate all the work you do here, sheesh! I pulled the trigger on the MitoPro, crossing my fingers for a positive ROI. I'm also kinda hoping it might help with some mild inflammation. Meh, we'll see. Don't know if I don't try, right? Thanks for the discount. :)
Thanks for using my code and happy to help!
Hi Alex. Thank you for all the good information. Your reviews help a lot. Would you be able to Review the red light panel EXESAS and give your thoughts and opinion on it. Thank you
Hey, I'm sorry if this comes through twice - I hadn't heard of this company but I notice one of their panels is identical to Bon Charges panel - which I reviewed here - ruclips.net/video/xsreUs3MUBk/видео.html - and that panel didn't perform very well. I will add this to my list though :)
Went with 2024 MitoPRO X Series × 1 MitoPRO 300X. Thanks for steering me away from masks
Glad I could help.
I am looking at the BIOMAX 900!!! I need the fullbody!!
Great panel. Have you seen my video:
ruclips.net/video/uzNKnfrWG2Q/видео.htmlsi=83UkdzuZqS28idzQ
thx for the video - Would be cool if you could cover something about the power /joules the light is delivered by. How many mW2 are needed for sufficient the light to penetrate the skin
Yes dosing is a very complex topic. I'm working on something :) Sub & Stay Tuned.
Thank you Alex this is very informative about skin health. Also it’s good to know red light helps with bone health. Have you done another video on bone health? Maybe I can get a device for my mom also. Perhaps the Miro Red would be a good option for her to start
Not yet sorry :(
Hi Alex, I am so glad to find your channel. Thank you for your information! Just wondering which one is a good choice for face and neck eczema, itching Skin and even broken skin after scratching on the face in Australia. Thank you!
Hey thanks!

Maybe the Biomax 300 - ruclips.net/video/KD8bFNnSaKM/видео.html ?
This video was superb.

I love your videos. I am looking for a travel panel. Sounds like the Mito Red might work. Thank you.
Hey yes check this out - ruclips.net/video/aOR0Nn0-PAE/видео.html
Also consider this - ruclips.net/video/3PamzmX8c74/видео.html
I will be doing an updated travel video as I have no many devices to showcase now and each of them have their advantages.
Is there a recommendation for a full body panel that is also ideal for beauty? I'd like multiple uses vs buying one panel for face and one for body.
All full-body panels can be used for beauty, with less treatment time.
I got the Mito Pro a couple of years ago for my beauty routine. I love it. I want a mask for travel though 😊
Whatever you do don’t get Omnilux mine stopped working randomly one day and they did nothing because it was a month outside warranty
It's a great panel.
Oh what a can of worms you have opened (American terminology!). I'm gad you're getting people thinking and asking questions about RLT. Thanks for the video. Love the thumbnail. 🙂
Haha thanks for your comment. I nearly pulled that thumbnail. It was Bart's idea - and I wasn't to sure about it so I appreciate the feedback!
Hello. I’m a little confused. I was first looking at the Platinum Biomax 900 for skin health…. Then I watched another video about fat loss. I don’t want to loose facial fat but wouldn’t mind in other areas 😊
There is little to no evidence of fat loss in the face. I have never heard of anyone loosing facial fat either.
Hello Alex, so many options to choose from. I like you though and suggestion of which one to purchase , the MitoPRO Mega or MitoPRO 750+1500 or MitoADAPT MAX?
Hey, check this out - ruclips.net/video/8CV645EOsdg/видео.html that should help. The ADAPT does have the better wavelength split though :)
The Biomax 300 is almost 700 and doesn’t comes with any stand and the stand is an extra 114 dollars.
Are you in the US? They have sales fairly often. Currently, 100 off any panel.
Also can you tell us about the best time to use it. There js so many mixed information out there! Ideally I’d like to wash my face then put on my skincare THEN go do a treatment but is that.going to run my skincare’s or it less effective since most units say “ speak to your doctor l “ who thinks this kinda stuff is foolish. Thanks in advance
clean skin is best
I want "beauty" lights, but I also want sleep, and I want them equally as much. I thought I had settled on mito, but now I'm not sure.
You could always get the Mito and then source a more specialised beauty product (like a beauty mask). I'm going to be reviewing more of these products this year.
Hello, how do the final two compare as to sound and flicker? Thank you! 😊 Very helpful comparison video. New subscriber!
Hey stay tuned - I'll have a database going live that will allow you to compare all panels
Hi Alex, would it be possible to give a review on JOVS Alva Wireless LED Light Therapy Device? I'm interested in it because it does seem to have all the necessary wavelengths, including 460nm (blue light). Thank you!
Hey, If you are still interested in this device, I'll be writing a review about it in a few weeks.
Great video as always, Alex. Thank you so much for your in-depth reviews, I love all the technical aspects.
I have a Biomax 900 that I love, and recently bought a Maysama Pulse 40 table top that is specifically designed for skin health. After using it for about a month, I think I made a mistake. I bought it primarily due to the pulsing feature, but compared to an equivalent number of LEDs on my 900, there’s absolutely no comparison in power. I don’t have the tools to measure power output, but it generally seems like quite a weak device.
As a secondary use, I thought that with it being so small and light, that I could easily take it on travel to treat multiple areas of my body for a longer period of time, than I do at home with the 900. But now, I don’t know that it’s a worthwhile option for travel use. I would really love it if you could do a review of the Maysama. I’m very interested in the power output, as it applies to both face treatment, or for use on travel.
I think for many of us, once we experience the benefits of red light therapy, we want to be able to bring it along while away from home. I thought about buying a smaller Biomax for travel, but they’re still fairly heavy and much bulkier than the Maysama device. Plus, the built-in stand on the Pulse40 really is fantastic to easily set up in any space while traveling.
Hi, thanks for your comments.
Maysama - ok I'll add it to my list, though I already have a lot of products to review in 2024. So i don't know when I will be able to review it.
I also have some videos on travel coming out soon - they may help :)
Sounds great, thanks for adding it to your list! With so many red light products, the market is pretty overwhelming right now. Happy 2024!
@@JenniferPayne-br4jvthese are sub standard products and you can do much better...better lights and output
Thanks for the info, Alex, so interesting and useful for many of us who want led therapy for skin condition. I’m confused about wavelengths. I have Hoogapro300 for face anti-aging issues like wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, tightening, uneven tone, etc, but now think that I’m missing 630nm 😢. Doesn’t 660nm, target either 630, cause is less wavelengths and be cover in the 660 spectrum? Could you explain how wavelengths work? I’m confused in this basic theory. Do you have a video where you explain how wevelenghts works? Thanks, Alex.
Hey. I don't have a video on the topic (yet).
I have written some blogs about it though - this may help:
www.alexfergus.com/blog/everything-you-need-to-know-about-red-light-therapy
that may help.
Pretty much though each wavelength is a different colour - or a shade of color. And science is showing that different wavelengths have different effects on the body/health etc.
The Hooga is still going to be good for skin. But yes there are better options with more wavelengths in it. But again the Hooga will still offer some benefit :)
Use a sauna at the Y...it's great and free
Excellent video, I'm brand new to all of this. Are either of these panels beneficial for hair loss? Or is that something completely different?
Glad you enjoyed it. Perhaps this article on my website can help you?www.lighttherapyinsiders.com/red-light-therapy-for-hair-loss/
Hi Alex! Any thoughts on the new Maysama beauty panel? Best, Elise
hey, no not yet sorry :(
What’s the most powerful small panel you recommend ? I want it to place it on my stomach to see if it helps with stomach inflammation, pain, and heal intestines from possible leaky gut or ulcers…
Hey if you just want power - then check out the IronForge by chroma - aferg.co/chroma (code ALEX Should work on this). I'm working on my review but this thing is super powerful!! You can listen to my interview with the inventor of that product here - ruclips.net/video/kSRwS7tujM0/видео.html
Could I ask for beauty and skin concerns would you recommend the biomax 300 or the dermaflex flexible panel?? Wondered if there were similar specs.. thanks so much. Your videos are insanely helpful!!
The biomax is going to be a lot more powerful - and offers other use cases as well. ruclips.net/video/KD8bFNnSaKM/видео.html
I wish there was a green light panel. I would love to finish my red light therapy with some green light!
Hey - check this out - lightpathled.com/product/green-series-tabletop/ Code ALEX will knock a few $ off the price as well :)
Hey Alex, getting ready to pull the trigger. Assume all is equal.. In light of recent videos would you rather have 4 Mito Pro modular (2x 750s 2x 1500s) setup or buy the (MitoPro Ultra + 1 750)... There's technically more LEDs 900 vs. 750 with the modular but a bit more expensive
Ohhh great question! So I'm yet to test a full sized 'all in one' body panel. Well I did test the Rojo 3000 - ruclips.net/video/1slJcRMbeiI/видео.html - which is a half body panel I guess.
I do like the idea with the one large panel, and the light coverage would be better. Plus it's going to look nicer as well. So yeah I'd probably go with that!
On BioMax's website, it only says 3 wave length: 480,660,850. Less wave length than Mito 300.
The BioMax 8th Generation has 7 wavelengths.
Thanks so much! I was debating so long on which to buy and now there's a winner.
Glad I could help!
Your two top picks vary a lot in their proportion of lights. I can't discern if one proportion of lights is better than another...is there some way to evaluate that, like for example is it better to have a proportion that is closest to natural sunlight? The different wavelengths seem to do a lot of similar things. I'd love to see a video on this if you don't have one already that I missed.
Hey, yes good points. Unfortunately though it's too tricky to say - especially as there is so much evidence showing that the light has systemic benefits -so treating one area will provide benefits elsewhere. If acne isn't a problem I wouldn't worry about the blue LEDs however.
I’m all to this red light therapy. I’m looking for one that covers head to toe Any suggestions. I needed for face ., hair , legs. An also lymphatic drainages any advice. Thank you for sharing. ❤ .
Have you watched my 2024 Comparison series video? Any of the top 5 would be a great overall panel.ruclips.net/video/FFCrl11AIbY/видео.htmlsi=dlFL2GuCwPZFuwbd
The best beauty masks (like OmniLux) use 633nm and 830nm. You mention 660 and 850 as the ones to use for beauty. Can you explain why those instead of 633/830?
Hey yes I'm working on a resource that will help with this. There is a lot of overlap between the 830 and 850nm wavelengths (if you look at the LED output of a 850nm LED you will see there is 830nm light as well - this works the other way also).
As for the 630 vs 660 - the research benefits seem to be quite similar with these two. I think a lot of panels use the 660nm LED's as it is cheaper to produce. Fortunately though there are panels like the BioMax and the MitoADAPT that do utilise a combination of wavelengths to ensure you can getting exposure to an assortment of wavelengths.
I purchased the mito mobile flex used your code. The NIR lights dont seem turned on at all. Is that normal ? Might use your code and buy the 300 panel. Thanks Alex.
Human eyes can not see NIR lights. It's normal to see only red light led lights up.
@@jaff0950 thankyou
Hey yeah as Jeff mentioned - the NIR lights will appear invisible. Have a look at this - ruclips.net/video/XTIE8VPFheM/видео.html
Thank you Alex! 🙂I have always heard that mini panels were perfect for face therapy but with this information I see it is not like this. I was very excited to buy GembaRed Vector Mini Red and NIR LED Light Panel it has the same wavelenghts of Mito Pro300 but it is mini, so it won't work in order to have the therapy in my entire face, right!?
You don't have to have a panel that will cover your whole face - it's just that you wont' get a full face treatment thats all - OR you move the device around to hit all the areas. You're better off getting something that is large enough to cover your entire face :)
Thank you so much for the info. I wanted to buy the Mitored because it was cheaper than the other one but shipping to Canada was 139. Does anyone know of any other panel that might be just as good but that shipping is not 1/5 of the cost
Have you seen this video? ruclips.net/video/Er3m1dDTCbw/видео.htmlsi=LZEkuuLJ_JdKAAww
Hey Alex, I’m looking into buying the Biomax300. Can you use the panels on tanned skin? Is it recommended to use it before or after tanning?
Also, can you use the panel if you have hyperpigmentation spots?
Hmm, I'm not sure about using it before or after tanning.
Hyperpignmentation - I wouldn't use the Biomax at full power. Especially the NIR - turn it down to say 20% to minimise the risk of them getting worse.
Thank you for this! The hoogapro one was the one I was going to get lol. I want them for mostly anti aging but also joint health. Would the hoogapro still be okay to get? Like could it still help with anti aging a bit?
Hey, yes no issues there. It does the basics really well :)
Thanks, Alex, but when I click the link for the Mito Pro 300, the website indicates the price is $619, not $300 and change.
What country are you in? Are you looking at USD?
Thanks so much for doing this video. I have a question about hyperpigmentation. My dermatologist told me these lights will cause hyper pigmentation and they do not treat it or improve it and she definitely recommended against it. But I don’t think she knows what she’s talking about. I have no idea where she got her info from but she was pretty adamant about it. I read somewhere that the infrared light setting can make the existing hyper pigmentation worse. I have melasma, sunspots and freckles so my complexion is a mottled hyper pigmented mess and no existing dermatological treatments have helped. I am hoping red light therapy is the answer but the last thing I wanna do is make this worse. You sound like you really know what you’re talking about so I’m hoping you will be able to reply to this comment. I’m considering the bio max panel you recommend in this video unless you suggest something else to better target my concern. I heard pulsed light is better but don’t know if that’s true or not. I’m looking to treat face neck and décolleté areas. Thank you very much
Honestly I don't know yet. My team and I are looking into this and we will publish a blog/video when we have more info. But there is a lot of discussion on this topic in our FB group - facebook.com/groups/lighttherapyinsiders
Do you have an updated version of this, as new models might have surfaced within the year after this video?
Hey, not of the smaller panels, but if you watch my 2024 comparison video, all the companies listed have smaller devices that are good. Or you can watch my reviews on Hogga panels. It is the larger 300 LED panel, but again, the same company, thus the same features.ruclips.net/video/FFCrl11AIbY/видео.htmlsi=xuJl2JzVMCbTyFuO
Hi! How long would you recommend for treatment time with being I’m assuming about 6 inches from the panel? I’m wondering how long I need to do everyday with either the Mito pro 300 and biomax 300? Thanks so much. I will be using your code :)
I would start with just a few minutes a day and increase time every few days. Dosing is different for everyone and you just need to experiment.

Hi Alex: Question for you, instead of buying multiple panels, can I achieve the benefits of beauty red light if I bought 2 BioMax 900 and treat my entire face and body? I'd rather invest in a motorized stand and treat at once. PLMK your thoughts. Thanks much
Yes, many do just that!
Curious where Celluma’s pro model stands with the Biomax?
I would have to do a comparison. Both are great products, though.
Hi Alex! Since posting this vid, do you know if they’ve made a panel that includes Near-infrared 1072nm? Thanks!
The new Biomax with 1060nm is the closest - ruclips.net/video/uzNKnfrWG2Q/видео.html
Thank you!
Alex, is red light therapy, known to help with neuropathy? my mom has cancer and previous chemo treatments, damaged her nerves in her feet and now she has neuropathy in her feet… Would red light therapy be good for her?
Hey. Yes it is.
Check our our FB group - facebook.com/groups/lighttherapyinsiders - as there are users in there who have had good results with RLT and this condition.
What are the emf ratings for these brands/panels? Thanks so much
Most are low but you can look in my shopping tool to see if any are high.products.lighttherapyinsiders.com
No one talks about amber light for redness :( I’m desperate
There isnt' a lot of research on amber. But check this out - ruclips.net/video/9Nw5Abb2h4E/видео.html
No BBL but you never forget your beloved biomax 😅
Hey this was filmed well before I had used a BBL panel. I will do updated video on beauty/skin soon. You can also check this blog out - www.lighttherapyinsiders.com/red-light-therapy-for-skin-benefits/
Can you please review the celluma pro ? It’s really expensive but it’s been recommended to me by some estheticians I’ve been told it’s the best one out there but it’s so pricey I’m not sure it’ll be worth the money and there’s no returns 😭
Hey yeah I need to get one, I'll add it to my list. In the meantime check this out - ruclips.net/video/yWgWWQl7fuE/видео.html
Hi Alex, quick question. I'm in Belgium and almost purchased the biomax... Until I saw the shipping costs. Any ideas for a European based supplier with the same specifications? THANKS A BUNCH!
Hey, Ohh I know the shipping rates are nuts!
I do have a video coming out looking at European options (be sure to subscribe and stay tuned for this)
Otherwise I'd go with either CytoLED - aferg.co/cytoled or LuminousRed - aferg.co/luminous
I have a discount code for these companies as well - it's code ALEX
@@LightTherapyInsiders Hello Alex, did you release already the European options video? I am also looking for one and I am a bit lost which panel I should buy... I wouldnt want to invest in the mask because panels seems better
Hi I’m just a bit confused, so the 630 is better than one with 660 for skin regarding collagen improvement? I’m not to sure which one to buy and just thought of getting the one with the higher number for collagen.😊
Hey. Ok so my plan for this year is to go through the literature and build out a skin protocol - i.e what is the best wavelength, intensity, duration, frequency of use etc. I really want to take a deep dive into this. In the mean time though - 630 or 660 are both going to be fine for collagen.
How do I order if I live in Australia please
You order from their US website and deal with possible import duties. Have you seen this video? These companies all make a smaller panel. ruclips.net/video/mMj7JYqnTM8/видео.htmlsi=qIo3lCvm7GjXr4vz
or this one:ruclips.net/video/BqyXgpDfNd4/видео.htmlsi=VUFcK9GnE9oXhjZp
bacteria do not cause acne. bacteria are simply there to clean up unhealthy tissues. acne is an inside job, but red light stimulates the production of new healthy dermal tissue when lifestyle issues are addressed.
Bacteria definately cause acne. They feed off the the oil and dead skin inside the pores and as a byproduct release chemicals that cause inflammation. In response a pimple is formed to help kill the bacteria
Thanks for this info x
I wonder how Mito adding 590nm might affect this ranking
I need to do an updated video soon. So many new panels and newer technology are being released.
how does the BioMax 300 compare to the Block Blue Pro for facial rejuvenation do you think??
Hey. -I'm working on some content to help answer this. It will be posted on the Light Therapy Insiders blog first. www.lighttherapyinsiders.com/
Mito Adapt?
I only received that after I filmed this series - i have filmed my review and it will be up on my YT channel later this week. Be sure to subscribe to be notified when that review is live :)
The biomax 300 is now $1006 😩 I guess I’m not buying one now.
What country are you in? I just looked, and before my discount, the price is in the $659
Would you say the extra hundreds of bucks are worth it for Biomax instead of Mitored? :(
Hey, check this out - ruclips.net/video/5fRQDFVotqY/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/2-RuTfCpirk/видео.html
So is the Mitro pro 300 worth investing in for beauty since I can’t afford the cost of the other one? Also are there any dangers like emf’s or other things that could cause us harm using these?
The Mito Pro 300 is a great choice - ruclips.net/video/8CV645EOsdg/видео.html
Lex I ma confused why did you suggested 630nn and not 660nn for beauty? Thank u
There is some amazing research on 630nm - but saying that, 660nm is still going to be an effective wavelength.
Can you compair a Rouge G3 Ultimate plane (72" X 24") 1200 LEDs cost $4,499 to other full body panels that size like 4 BIOMAX 900's (72"X 24" ) 1200 LED's cost $4,786. Which is better or is there another option out there ?
Hey, I don't have that panel on hand, but I could try and do a comparison using the data I have.
What would be the best beauty one if I’m wanting to buy from within Australia?
ruclips.net/video/BqyXgpDfNd4/видео.htmlsi=ZwmsmLlSDstgxdW1
Alex, is better to have led dual chips than single chips? Is it more powerful if have dual chip like bestqool?
It won't impact the power output - but it will improve the spread of the light
@@LightTherapyInsiders so do dual chips have less power per wavelength as it goes half for each wavelength ?
I have never used Red Light Therapy, still though, an interesting video...
check this out - www.alexfergus.com/blog/everything-you-need-to-know-about-red-light-therapy
I am trying to purchase one of the panels you recommend but the code Alex doesn’t seem valid anymore. Do you have a current discount code for the mitopro300? Thanks!
Hey, I just checked - code ALEX still works for me
Can you do a celluma lite or pro device?
I do want to compare it to the Dermalux Flex MD product I reviewed at some point. Have you seen that review?ruclips.net/video/yWgWWQl7fuE/видео.htmlsi=TrT-x72LeWCApzrR
Which ones is best for hair loss?
Good question - we're going to work on a blog and video that covers this topic in more detail :) Be sure to sub and stay tuned
What do you think about the kala Pro panels?
The only Kala device I have used is this - ruclips.net/video/7hlCchKD9qE/видео.html
so none of the australian companies
Hey try this The ULTIMATE AUS/NZ Red Light Therapy Panels Guide!

Thanks for sharing your opinion BUT should we all jump on the band wagon and the MASSIVE TREND/PUSH lately for LED red light Therapy?
I am concerned because of these kinds of studies :
"The Secret Risks Of LED Lights
One of the main concerns with LED lights relates to red LED lights, one of the oldest varieties still on the market. Those red LEDs were made with a substance called AGA (aluminum gallium arsenide), which is toxic in concentrated amounts. If you are directly exposed to this material on work sights or through contact with broken bulbs, it can be hazardous to your health. Side effects of toxicity from AGA include respiratory, kidney, and reproductive issues in laboratory studies. The lead content in red LEDs is also toxic when directly exposed, and should be avoided."
Again, there is such a huge push right now for Red light 'Therapy " and many companies selling devices and making lots of money.
But are these REALLY and effective? Is this ALL B.S and just another cash grab trend?
Why when one goes to a hardware store to purchase lights bulbs there is a WARNING on the box for all LED light bulbs ) but NOT on the boxes for incandescent bulbs ) ?
Hey.
Like many things in our life today - the manufacturing does require a lot of chemicals and risk - I would like to think the companies involved in this are using all the safety gear.
But once the LED's are made - as long as one isn't smashing them to bits, I don't see how they can be dangerous? But i'm no expert on LED manufacturing.
Are there panels that only use 630 and 830nm?
Yeah some companies just have 2 wavelengths. You can look in my shopping tool for specific wavelengths. products.lighttherapyinsiders.com/
So I’m saving for a Biomax 450 or 900 but while I’m doing that I am using the total body enhancement/ergoline beauty angel 7200. How do the specs compare to the average body panel? I’m I wasting my time?
Hey, I just had a quick look - these are big units! I'm guessing you use one at at clinic? I couldn't find the exact wavelengths they emit, but i'm sure they are beneficial so I'd keep using it :) Unless the price is extreme - then you may decide to put that towards your savings instead!
@@LightTherapyInsiders thanks for your reply! It’s an amenity at my gym and I have unlimited access. I’m trying to go several times a week.
All these apps, do they have one for how to use your brain 😊
:P
There is dermalux
Wow thanks for this - I just spent 30mins looking into their products! I'm going to see if I can get one of their home user devices. They look well built and simple to use :)
Bio max is 629 + 120$ stand not 570$
Too overpriced
Hey yeah the prices went up after I filmed this. And yes I forgot to include the stand price. Sorry for this.
Your reason for discounting certain models doesnt seem logical. 650 and 660 etc should provide the same benefit as 630
There is research on these other wavelengths that do show different benefits.
@AlexFergusdotcom So my theory is still possible?
It’s still way too expensive.. If it wasn’t for the hyped popularity these devices wouldn’t be anywhere near the prices companies are charging.. Not saying they don’t have benefits.. just saying why should so many consumers have to be locked out of reaping the benefits because of their inflated prices⁉️😖
Hey, I have some reviews on devices purchased from Amazon that are coming soon.
Please people pass on all of these models....all BS. Talk to your dermatologist
Really?! Lots of Dermatologists use and rave about red light therapy?
