This young woman's skin is absolutely stunning. I will do daily. I also have a derma roller. Will do derma roller once per week. Am 54, wear sunblock every day since I was 24, I do tretinoin and vitamin C, botox for forehead and crow's feet, and conservative use of fillers. I am told I could pass for 30's, but time isn't kind and I can tell you I have benefitted financiallyand professionally from working to appear youthful. Sad, but true. It does matter. Ageism is very real and disproportionately affects women more negatively then men.

Thank you so much for sharing your experiences and perspective! I totally feel you-it’s unfortunate that women are held to much different standards than men. I personally really love beauty, makeup, and skincare and enjoy taking good care of my face and body. But I feel for the ladies who do not enjoy this.

Because of your video, I decided to be consistent everyday using the mask in the morning. Within a week and especially the second week, my folliculitis had been healing. I no longer have it anymore.

Love your video! I started using an OmniLux mask about a month ago, and have seen subtle skin improvement so far. I also started using it on my hands, for osteoarthritis -- mine has an inflammatory effect although it's not rheumatoid arthritis. The skin over the arthritic area is red from the inflammation. I've found that after using the LED/IF mask, the redness was gone the next morning after using it the night before. The redness started to return maybe 24 hours later, but by using the mask on my hands everyday, the redness doesn't return. (I've since purchased the hand-mitt version for this purpose.) I've had that inflammatory redness for at least six years, so seeing it disappear is amazing !!! I'm keeping my fingers crossed that continued use might help other autoimmune issues.

Thank you for this upload. I am a licensed esthetician who is more than familiar with LED therapy. But I had no idea it had the potential to have cognitive benefits in addition to topical. I wonder if this actually has something to do with the technology itself, or if it is from the mental aspect of having a self care step in your routine every morning. On a non speculating point, it makes sense from a scientific point of view that when the leds went out on one half the results would be notably differnt between the two sides of your face. LED therapy isn't a trend or a gimic. By nature it will always provide results if at the right wavelength. There are no if ands or buts about it. It's a clinically viable and widely used treatment with basically 100% success rate in clients if used regularly. So for those skeptical, it's absolutely worth it. It's one of the few at home technologies that I would endorse. And get the at home version and bite the bullet for upfront costs. As estheticians we charge from $150 up to over $500 for one LED light session. You need to use this consistently to see results. One session a few times a year won't do anything. Saying it now makes me feel guilty for charging that. Yes, a device could be $500+ but you buy it once. You'd spend close to 50k a year at the low end going in for treatment everyday. Which is how you'll get the best results. Doing it at home is much more economic and ensures you'll keep up with it in the future

5:33 Your left side of the face is naturally smoother than the right... For me, my right side is naturally smoother than left... We all do have such subtle/vivid discrepancies either naturally or simply because one side has more problems/acne.. usually the side we sleep on which leads to fluid retention, less Lymphatic drain and even spread of bacteria on that side. I have given red light masks a good trial and the difference (if any) is not enough to give it any credit like I would to say derma needling. Also, with lights we need to be very cautious because the margin of error is high due to the uncontrolled/undetected nature of home devices. Not the correct wavelength and it may cause hyperpigmentation or be completely useless.

Completely different but it reminds me of these solar-energy greenhouses with special glass that only lets blue/green light through (which the plants mostly absorb) and captures other wavelengths to produce energy.

We bought a Korean made Ceragem red light massage bed in 2008. It was a costly layout initially. We paid it out, and we bought an infrared mattress pad to sleep on. They use Jade to transmit the infra red spectrum light. In Korea they use infrared to heat their homes and their stoves too. It is very common there we were told by Korean students we had staying with us. i lie down on the bed with or without the massge on in 1 hour i wake up rejuvenated feeling refreshed. The infra-red penetrates 3 inches below the surface. It heats up quite hot. You need to protect your eyes from the bright lights. We have had this for almost 15 years, the mattress pad stopped working a couple of years ago but we used it every night for 6 months of the year if we could find a part replacement we could use it again. I would not recommend this with a foam mattress though. It was worth the 4,000 plus initial investment. Highly recommend.

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

Wow!!! How have I never heard of this?? That sounds amazing. Thank you so much for sharing :) I have lots of research to do now! Re eye safety: yes! I have been using eye blockers in recent months. This mask actually came with them, I just didn’t initially put them on because they were considered “optional”. Better safe then sorry!

Question: what are the differences in benefits between using the red light panel and the red light mask? Thank you for this great video!

[@Dreamopticsredlightglasses]

red light panels are usually more powerful and cover a greater body area, you can use them for different body areas, tend to be better for aches, sprains, although can still use for the face, check their power output as some panels you want to sit 3 feet away from otherwise too powerful for eyes if up close or wear goggles, mask led's get really close to the skin which is good though some cheap masks their led's are probably not very effective, for red light devices best go for ones which have a reputation, companies which have been around, have good websites and reviews, some of their websites have lots of information, also read reviews online, some of the cheaper products their led's are cheap and they are not very effective

[@Ooweeeooo]

YOU WERE NOT LYING!! I bought a cheap one from China (Skingenics was the website) and just using it one time, I could see a difference. The wrinkles between my eyebrows were less apparent and my skin looked way smoother and soothed. Thank you for posting this video!

[@lynnebateman1111]

My friend has been diagnosed with cataracts and apparently exposure to bright sun can accelerate this. Now I'm wondering if the bright red light right next to your eyes can also affect eyes...😮

[@Dreamopticsredlightglasses]

Low power red light is actually good for the eyes, for example 670 nanometre red light at 8 milliwatts per cm squared for 3 minutes in the morning (what our glasses use, developed by eye scientists in the UK) 20 nm per cm 2 is ok, many masks are this kind of power, check the details on the mask, more powerful panels and lamps like 50 mw/cm2 with wavelengths of 650/750/850 you should sit 3 feet away, if anything seems bright to your eyes use goggles or don't use it, longer wavelengths like 900 plus don't use it for eyes, follow the instructions with the mask or panel, some people are more light sensitive so have to be more careful those with eye medical conditions should get advice from optometrist / doctor first

[@bethanydueweke7492]

I love my Omnilux! My Hooga panel cleared my leg eczema that I've had for 15 years, and it has never come back since! Wow. How old are you though, you look so young that judging whether this mask has improved your skin is hard - you look a out 25, so firming wouldn't even be an issue yet! ❤❤ Your skin is flawless! 😊

[@annmarieknapp]

Can you tell me which red light panel you bought? I'd be grateful. I'm thinking of getting one as my Omnilux mask has been intermittent on the lights and I'm Leary of spending another 400 bucks on another one if having problems with first one.

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

I am 31! And definitely my skin is in much better shape because I take care of it :)

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

I really want to get a panel! Were you happy with Hooga?

[@bethanydueweke7492]

@TheScienceofSelfCare I'm happy with the Hooga in that I believe it cleared my eczema, and it gives my skin a "glow" that is hard to explain! The Hooga emits 660 nm red light and 850 nm of near infrared. The is not the peak ideal values for these, I can't remember the exact numbers, but research that first. I would rather have a panel that emits the ideal nm.

[@Zurflu]

I'm very interested in the fact that you use it without washing your face right beforehand (if I'm understanding correctly?). I always worry about it not being effective if I use moisturizer or anything beforehand but if it still works for you first thing waking I think I don't need to worry about that! Thank you for the awesome video :) I've had an Omnilux mask for about half a year. Within a couple uses I considered not getting forehead botox anymore!

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

Thanks for your question. To clarify (which I did not in the video), I usually have to pee every morning when I wake up and while I am in the bathroom I quickly splash my face with water (not cleanser) just to get any residual skincare off my skin. So I use the mask with pretty “clean” skin.

[@Zurflu]

⁠thank you for clarifying!

[@catherinewilkes1755]

Hi, I came over to your channel after watching Dr Dray's video on LED light masks. I've had a currentbody mask for around 18 months but havent been consistent with using it. Watching your enthusiasm and obvious results, which are more than skin deep has spurred me on to start using the mask again and to be consistent with it. So thank you 🤗 I'll be checking out lots more of your videos now too.

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

That’s great to hear! It really is the type of thing that takes consistent use to benefit from. I would definitely recommend trying a morning meditation in bed 🥰

[@redlightglassesonthischannel]

hi Robin , thank you so much, that was great and very interesting. I use a new pair of red light therapy glasses developed by scientists / lighting engineers in the UK which slow the ageing of your eyes if you are 40 and over - you are too young ! so you don't need them (someone in your family might though ) They use 670 nm red light. I have used them for about a year and I have seen an improvement in my colour and nighttime vision. All the best to you.

[@geometricart7851]

I'm not so sure about the face masks as skin health be it from the face or anywhere else comes and is an indicator of overall body health. I'm sure this helps somewhat, but first you need to eat right and don't forget to hydrate as recommended. Water helps release all the toxins from the body and once you do that your face and everywhere else will visibly improve. Also, don't forget to sleep as this is the time the body and the brain repairs itself ! You are young so your body responds to the healing effects of the wavelengths to a much greater degree since you don't have decades of toxins which have built up in your body. Us 50 year olds do. I've been trying to eat better and not drink so much coffee instead of water! Once I get that under control I'll probably try this at some point!

[@liviusss]

I also love my LED mask, I have the Omnilux, pretty expensive, but as you said, we use them almost daily (I use mine probably 5 times a week), so the cost/use is not that huge... Like you I have very sensitive skin with rosacea and I have noticed a significant improvement in the last 3 months, my skin is so much calmer and clearer, especially after I had developed some horrible cystic breakouts (which I assume were caused by the collagen supplements I was taking), and also after spending some months in the merciless African summer. I hope I will also get to see results on some very fine lines that have appeared under my eyes (probably due to that African sun I was mentioning). I am also using the mask on my chest even though it's for the face. One question though, you said you use it for 20-30 minutes everyday? Apparently using it for too long could potentially be damaging - Claire Johnston on the Honest Channel has some interesting videos about this.

[@krisq3616]

Great commitment! Red light therapy has worked for me too!! One comment- the light cannot penetrate as deeply if it is not touching your skin! The masks that wrap around like the one shown here are too far away where they are not molded to your face. Try one that is more molded like a mask, instead of flat.

[@lBubbleable]

which one do you recommend?

[@VeronicaMist]

Yes it does. It doesn't have to touch your skin.

@@seeingyouontube As someone who has had extensive eye problems for 50 years and have spoken to all 4 of my eye doctors about the LED masks, they have ALL advised to keep eyes closed. If you were using it for macular degeneration, it would be under a doctor's care.

@@PreciousMe I always keep my eyes closed. But the problem with your argument is most doctors aren’t familiar with RLT. I’m a retired nurse with a PhD who has focused on healthy lifestyles. When I started fasting and keto diet years ago, I heard health professionals out of ignorance deny these were acceptable practices. Western medicine is very limited. There are medical professionals who are aware of alternate means towards wellness but they are not easy to find and have even been legally sued for speaking outside of the corporation lipspeak in the healthcare monopoly.

Thanks for the video!:) I am considering the mask but am so scared about the potential fat loss it can cause after watching The Honest channel discussions let by Claire.. But it is also really annoying because in that chanel they argue that almost any good modality for the skin cause fat loss, such as tretinoin.. Have you seen it? what is your opinion of it? I can see that your face is full, you probably did not lose any fat? may I ask you how old are you as well? since you look very youthfull and your skin looks incredible!:) thank you! ;)

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

I am 31 and i have not noticed any fat loss at all. I am not sure how it would result in fat loss. Haven’t seen any studies related to that. It’s not radio frequency and it’s not delivering heat deep into the tissue. So I really don’t think you need to be worried about fat loss :)

[@Himmiefan]

Dr. Dray has an interesting video discussing that Honest Channel discussion.

[@liviusss]

I don't see how red light could cause fat loss, even though I'm watching Claire's channel... The LED masks do not generate heat in the skin, which would cause the fat cells to atrophy, so maybe a defective device which was worn everyday for many hours could potentially cause some issues, but if you have a good mask and use it like it's supposed to be used, I don't see how you could have this issue.

[@lulupuff7295]

why do you use 20-30minutes? its says 10minutes is recommended and adding more time wont include any more benefits to the skin. be careful because the time is calculated in relation to the irradiance level of the device and too high irradiance is not beneficial to the skin, if you like long sessions you should check out the dermalux as that is recommended for 30minutes as the irradiance is lower because you lay under it as opposed to direct on the skin

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

Thanks so much for your comment. This is a really great point, I initially read somewhere that it's difficult to "over do" photobiomodulation, but I'm not sure that's true. I like to meditate between 20-30 minutes when I wake up and have noticed amazing skin benefits (with no perceivable drawbacks) following this routine. But to be safe, I will now switch to ten minutes on my face and ten minutes on my neck until I have done further research. :)

[@brookekasprzyk4850]

Doing it longer means a higher dose, and you are treating deeper into the body. I am not entirely sure if you are treating the skin at 20-30 minutes (40-60 Joules of energy). These masks are designed for around 20 joules of energy for 10 minutes, which is ideal for skin health. But honestly there is no wrong way to do red light. If you like how your skin looks and how you feel, then it is fine! There’s a lot of research on overdosing the skin cells in order to reach deeper tissue but your skin looks great so it must be working!!

Thank you for your sweet comment! Hope you’ll love your LED mask as much as I love mine. Re microneedling: You’re absolutely right about being ultra careful with at-home treatments like dermarolling. I have a very careful protocol I follow where everything is sanitized and I do not over-use any single roller. For me personally, dermarolling has done wonders for my skin (clarity and texture) at a fraction of the cost of a microneedling session in a clinic. But I agree it’s something to be very careful with and would advise anyone perusing the comments to do their own research and talk to some professional aestheticians. :) Love from (currently) California xo

[@turbocrackers2204]
