This is the one device that has been on my radar. I was thinking about a mask, but this is more versatile. Your makeup is stunning in this video - every time you blink, we see this great complement to your hair. The blending in the crease is chef’s kiss!

[@MrKongsMom]

Thank you so much!! Using my Sydney Grace shadows this week and loving them! This is really one of those devices that has uses beyond the beauty stuff so I really think its worth looking into if you have some conditions that could be helped by it.

[@nancyredford5591]

I have been using red light therapy for about 2 months. I’m using a very similar machine to your small panel & it is also considered a pro machine. I’m a lot older than you & I bought for 2 reasons. 1 I have MS & I read several articles about how red light therapy helps MS & of course I want my skin to look better if possible. I am consistently using at least 6?days a week for 10 minutes in a fashion similar to the way you use it letting the red light wash over my face & neck & upper shoulders. One amazing thing has happened. My left arm used to go numb every night waking me up consistently all night long. And in the last 2 weeks I’ve slept all night. Not a tingle. I’m shocked. That is a benefit I never expected. My skin is developing a glow. Nice. I’ve always had nice skin and been complimented for it even at my age of 73. I have very few wrinkles. I guess it’s the Swedish high cheek bones I inherited from my grandmother. Personally I love using the red light therapy. I find it very relaxing. I would recommend it to anyone .

[@MrKongsMom]

I'm so glad you are seeing great results for yourself! So many uses for this modality.

What is the difference between the different Red light frequencies?

[@MrKongsMom]

They different levels of red light are able to reach different depths inside of the body. Some people cannot use NIR because it can trigger hyperpigmentation.

I'm 43 as well, and have benefitted from red/infrared light therapy (used a wand for the past few years). It has definitely helped to reverse mild sagging i had started to develop, as well as nasolabial and marionette lines. It also seems to optimize microneedling results! I wanted to compliment you on your hair! I'm doing the same-- keeping it natural! I have dark brown hair with a lot of white interspersed.. I don't see a lot of people embracing their gray. Anyway, thank you for the info on the Mito Pro! I think I will try it to cut down my treatment time, and hopefully to also improve my sleep/mood. Thanks!

[@MrKongsMom]

Welcome back! And thank you so much. I think it's continued use of Red Light and probably the tretinoin. I've been on it for a while now and I really think it helps a lot over time. Lastly, my skin is much better hydrated. I do use the Droplette device (collagen formula) and it's plumped my skin a lot! Its likely a few different things but those are the game changers I think.

[@lacyreeves8304]

I’m 58 and felt so badly about myself because the area around my mouth was starting to droop. It aged me terribly. I tried injections once but it changed my smile and didn’t look natural. I invested in a high end mask and have been faithful using it at least 4 nights a week. WOW! What a difference it’s made!!! It actually tightened the area!!! I thought I’d never consider a face lift but it was so bad and made me look old, I was considering having work done, but don’t feel like I need to now!!! My face isn’t wrinkle free but really reversed sagging!! I’ll be investing in a panel today! I had no idea about panels until I stumbled onto this video. And btw- I never heard about the green tea hack and still got great results. Most nights I used it on a clean face with a serum.

Great review. I'd personally feel happier with a panel as ones face is not as close, main reason would be the EMF given off esp at such close ranges. I would always advise an EMF frequency reader to test anything out that is so close to one's face.

My Rheumatologist is trying to get insurance to help pay for the full body one for my Autoimmune disease as it has been shown in some small studies to be very beneficial in tamping down inflammation which I find fascinating. Either way it's what I was going to ask for for Christmas but this just seals the deal. My sons Psychologist also said it could help my sons depression/ADD symptoms. I really think red light is a very exciting possibility as a modality to compliment so many health plans.

It is difficult to say how much is due to the Mito because of the other products I am using on my skin but I will continue using it. I have been wondering about the distance from my skin. Do you know the minimum and maximum recommended distance for using it? I am a long time fan - thanks for the great videos!

[@MrKongsMom]

Thanks for sharing!! I think anywhere from 6-18 inches is plenty. You don't need to be too terribly close because the bulbs are pretty powerful. It's not like the handheld devices or masks.

i started infrared yoga and love it! ill be 51 in august and my skin is in good condition but once you hit menopause hormones take over and you WILL age lol no amount of creams and lights can stop that. however like you said you can slow it or try to look as good as you can based on using these products.

[@MrKongsMom]

Yes, I think aging gracefully, whatever that means to you is the way to go. I think taking care of yourself overall, diet, exercise, good mental health practices, sleep and the fun stuff like devices and skincare can go a long way in helping you feel and look your best. It doesn't matter to everyone, but I think to those who it does matter to, it can be a game changer in how they feel about life overall.

[@annmarieknapp]

Yes, I have noticed aging picking up and I do it all to prevent aging and sun damage. I am already saving for a vertical restore,but want to avoid that unless it's absolutely inevitable. I am out front and center for my job so I do feel self conscious. And anyone reading this, I am now studying ageism, because it's very real and threatening to how you may be perceived in your career. I'm not an actress or in another career path where your appearance is that critical to work, but still very much feel the sexism now that I'm a woman in my early 50's. I know I don't look my age whatever 54 is supposed to look like today when we live in a time where JLo and Jennifer Aniston are still stunning and look like they are in their 30's. Especially, JLo...I swear she just gets more beautiful with time (inside and out. She is a lovely person). Anyway, ageism hits us all if we live long enough and women in their 50's and 60's are treated much worse than their male counterparts. So I know it's unrealistic to look like I'm in my 20's, but youthful like my heart feels and engaging because I want to reinvent myself in a career capacity. No one tells men they can't do that. Why should it be any different for women? I recommend getting the panel folks. I did have a cut on tip of my nose which healed up this week and only used it 4 days. My immune system hasn't been none for that, so unless it's placebo, I'm already happy I picked it up. Bought on an Amazon Prime sale and saved about 30%.

Nope, I never really remember to do pictures. But you can go back on some of my older videos from a few years ago to see the difference. It's part of an anti aging system for me tho, so multiple factors go into the progress I have made. But I do think red light has given a huge boost!

I'm a young lad of 69 yrs old and I have a lot of infra red therapy devices. I have now got some amazing stuff which I prefer to the infra red stuff. One is a Multi Light Cold Laser, a Red light Cold Laser. It only takes a second or so looking at a Laser to burn your retina. You will get blind spots in your vision if you damage your eyes !!! If you use a Camera, it can detect invisible light. My favourite Device which I use for Kidney Stones and Kidney infections is an Ultrasound Device. This isn't the type like an X Ray Machine. It's for killing Pain. Another Device I like is my Infra Red Cavitation and Ultrasound Machine that busts up Fat Cells so they get Dissolved by your body over time !!!! I love all these Gadgets and I haven't bought anything that did not work !!!! I have ordered a Red Light Box and a Green Light one as Well !!!! But you are looking Fabulous so you are keeping Young !!!!

I could not tell you. I don't use infrared sauna and have never looked into it. Sorry I can't be of more help with this one.

[@sonjaforrester9255]

I can't decide if this type of device would be better than a mask? I like the idea of a mask to walk around with rather than have to sit down. I do t have a lot of time and I'm afraid if I have to sit down I may not stay with it. But love the idea of it hitting more of my body.

[@MrKongsMom]

I have the CurrentBody mask and don’t use it. You think you’ll walk around with it but it’s pretty uncomfortable to do so actually. I tried lol. Plus the bulbs are significantly stronger on the panel so I do much less time with the panel vs. the mask. The versatility of the panel is fantastic. But if you like laying in bed, I’d go for the mask.

[@MISSIONCAT11]

Thanks for this interesting report. Last winter I bought from Amazon for $30 a radiant heater. This has two quartz tubes, each of which provides 250 Watts of heating. I can select one or both of them for a maximum of 500 Watts. Each tube glows bright orange. I looked these tubes up, and they are simultaneously radiating light in the visible (orange) and also the near infrared and the far infrared. The power is ten or a hundred times the power of the little bulbs. The reason I bought this is that it radiates heat rays that pass right through clothing and even the skin and warm me instantly, without warming the air unnecessarily. So they are efficient and keep power bills down. Now I am wondering about what would be the result if I used these as a skin repair source of light. The light is covering a large area so I could do my entire face at one sitting. Moving closer will increase power, and moving back will decrease it. Doing many parts of the body is possible, even the butt. It might be possible to buy a light filter that would allow only certain wavelengths through, visible, near infrared, or far infrared. The infrared light passes through clothing, so it would not be necessary to expose the skin under treatment. What do you think of this ?

[@MrKongsMom]

If it's working for you, keep it up! I love the way it makes me feel. So relaxing!

[@MISSIONCAT11]

@@MrKongsMom "I Did Red Light Therapy for 10 Days Straight" The above is a KZbin video where a guy has a red light panel of lights hanging on the door. His light panel reminds me of a radiant heater, and he gives the times and distances from the light panel to his skin. The reason I am mentioning this is that I am a guy and I am going to do the same experiment that he did, except I plan to use my radiant heater with 1 bulb on, i.e. 250 watts. He also did his butt because the had some skin damage there. That could have been risky because of the proximity to the genitals. He should have covered them with aluminum foil, I think.. I plan to wear swim goggles with aluminum foil over the goggle lenses to block all light. Otherwise I will do the same as him.

Have you heard of red light bringing dark spots to the surface of your skin? I have had the Mito pro 300 for a week and a half and have seen a few new spots on my face which I’m worried about.

[@MrKongsMom]

Ok so yes this is a thing... you may be one of the few people who's skin reacts the NIR. For some it can bring out discoloration in the skin. You can still use the device! Just do not use the NIR when treating your face. The red light alone should be just fine. In the meantime a good vitamin C should help you resolve the spots. I'm sorry that happened to you.

I have never experienced any fat loss myself. You may want to be careful if you have pigmentation issues because in SOME people it can cause the pigmentation to increase with NIR.
