Hi Claire, better late than never. Interesting on my body I began to use red light for 30 to 60 mins and got better results. One was for skin elasticity, and I had some strange bobbles appearing around my top inner legs from knee to top of the thighs. All have disappeared. It was also for overall body condition, digestion, bones and blood flow as well. I have had really good results when using it longer. As I'm nearing 60 things have accumulated and I feel it's clearing it all out and healing. So maybe the time thing is an age thing as well. It healed fibromyalgia for sure. I don't get it anymore. For my face I use for 20 mins and made my own topical mixture of green tea, organic rose water and glycerine. I don't think my red light is the strongest brand but the excellent results I have had speak for themselves.

[@Lifes_Frosting]

I have a full body panel from Platinum LED that I use 2X daily 7 days a week for 40 minutes each session (20 minutes on the front then flip to the back for another 20). I've been doing this for 15 months straight, rarely missing a day. My skin looks absolutely amazing and has improved greatly since I began using the device. I'm 56 and my skin seems to be aging in reverse, if that's possible. When I'm at the gym, I am able to see how different my skin looks in the mirror compared to others around me of all different ages. My skin looks incredibly healthy and has an amazing glow from within compared to everyone else, even much younger men and women. My skin is getting tighter, firmer and plumper too! In addition this device does all the other wonderful things like help with muscle soreness and recovery after strenuous workouts. I did a LOT of research on red light therapy before I purchased my device and could not find a single negative side effect. I'll keep doing what I'm doing because I absolutely love the results. It just so happens that I drink Matcha tea and take NMN with resveratrol just prior to my morning session and glutathione after my bedtime session.

[@theguest6127]

Your guest has a lot of knowledge, which I found great. Like her, I use my red light therapy every day in the mornings. For me, it is a meditative routine. Dwayne Johnson, also known as the Rock, wakes up at five in the morning and does a two- or three-hour work-out routine except I do one hour work routine followed by red light therapy. However, where I do disagree is with the recommended length of time to use. Most professional salons recommend 30 -90 minutes in a professional setting e.g salon, doctors office, etc (wouldn't you be angry if you paid a large amount of money only to be in it for six minutes), while for the home version, they recommend 20 -30 or do claim you can do longer up to 40 minutes if you want. I personally do it for 40 minutes every day. In my opinion, six minutes hardly seems worth it.

[@thehonestchannel]

Frustratingly there is a lack of research from the industry on the optimum amount of red light exposure longer-term. We know too much can be a bad thing (I've linked in the description to a separate discussion on this channel on that subject) but we also know just a few minutes a day has been found to have beneficial effects. I go with less is more but really we need long-term studies to be sure.

@@tallisinwonderland4724 I've liked it but can't 100% tell if it's what's making my face look so much better this past week. I also got more regular taking my collagen supplements the last couple weeks (where I'd been really spotty with it) and also added OneSkin serum to my routine over the last couple weeks. So it could be those other things. That said, I do see a firmer face in the last week than since I first started using a red light mask a year ago. If it is the device, it could be the red light component being used now twice daily instead of just a couple times a week I use the mask. I know my skin responds quite well to red light. Sorry I can't be more helpful, but I'm not testing for other people so not isolating what new things I do to isolate effectiveness.

[@danasaywhat_43]

It's funny, maybe I was doing it intuitively but anytime I use my red light bulb, I turn my face from side to side and up and down throughout the treatment. Glad Bev mentioned the 6-minute treatment because I was doing about 15 at a time but maybe it wasn't terrible considering I'm always moving my face around. I recently reduced my treatment time to about 10 minutes again with constant movement and I'm wondering if that's still too much even if I'm moving my face? Edit to add: I've been using the Maysama serum and also the brightening mask, the cleanser and the exfoliating toner for quite some time and they are among my favorite products of all time and must have's. That being said, since Green Rooibos offers protection against free radicals, would 8 to 10 minutes be okay or is 6 minutes absolutely the max that we should go before causing reverse effects?

[@Sylvie_X]

I was using it for 20 minute sessions. Now, I'm going to stick to 5 or 6 minutes. That should make it easier for me to do every day since it's less of a time commitment. Yay!

[@tanyts]

Hi Claire, the Celluma uses pulsed light, which you could speak to the creator because he says we can never over do LED, and he uses the analogy of a cellphone, and he says are mitocondria can only take as much energy as they need to be “fully charged”… the same as a cellphone we leave it charging all night but it only need maybe two hours. He says the same happens with LED Celluma specifically, the cell charges and then it doesn’t matter if there expose to more because they are unable to absorb any more energy. Maybe this is because Celluma uses pulsed light, I don’t know, because it’s very different of what Bev is saying on this video, that’s why I would love if you can get the Celluma creator on this matter. Thank you for your videos 🙏💞

[@thehonestchannel]

Hi. Thanks for this suggestion. I'll take a look at what he said but there is some evidence to suggest too much exposure may not be beneficial and I would have to be careful of having someone without a medical background declare it's impossible to overdo red light. We'd need concrete scientific evidence to support that. My own view is that if we know frequent, shorter treatments can offer benefits then that would be a sensible route to go down.

One question please. I have an LED mask this may sound crazy but I've been putting the mask up against my shoulder as I have frozen shoulder & after 4 months of weekly chiropractor visits which cost a fortune I, in desperation decided to try the mask against my skin. Wow cannot believe the relief it has given me. Then remembered my father had a singular large red globe he used for his Arthritic knee 60 years ago & we thought him crazy. Now thinking maybe he wasn't. My mask is the hard plastic variety & I got it initially to help fight aging etc. Very very cheap but checked all the numbers against the dearer ones & had decided if I used it regularly then I'd step up to the Current Body or Omnilux silicone version. Am now wondering if a panel is the answer as this way can treat face & body in one. Panels here in Australia are really expensive & a pretty small one is around AU$1000 plus so it needs some thought as a large purchase

[@thehonestchannel]

I suspect Bev would recommend a panel in this case. She has a few listed on her site which would be worth checking against specs of ones sold in Australia - maysama.com

[@RandiBigger]

I use the LED mask on my face 3-4 days a week for 20 minutes. Are you only using for 6 minutes due to the advice from the manufacturer.? just wondering.

[@thehonestchannel]

I think Bev is basing her approach on the fact that we know too much red light is not a good thing, but we don't know exactly how much is too much due to a lack of longer-term research. We also know from studies that just a few minutes of red light therapy a day can be beneficial (i've linked to a study in children with an eye condition in the description) so she's erring on the side of caution (as I am) to get the benefits and not the downsides.

[@Greatergmw]

This is very interesting particularly the times suggested. I have a celluma panel and the cycle is 30 minutes. I’ve heard from the manufacture the treatment becomes effect after fifteen minutes. Now considering where in the cycle to finish the treatment as 30 mins seems excessive.

Free radicals and red light therapy broke up😮‍💨🤭Radicals is now dating-free. Red light is now on top of radicals. Please, please enjoy yourself as they will reunite after therapy stands between them💪🙃

I wouldn’t want to keep turning my head using a pulse light…that would be the most likely way to deter me from using it

I think she meant you can create your own pulsed light if sitting in front of a constant red light by turning your head.

Everyone said it takes 20 minutes to stimulate collagen production 🤔

If you’ve heard people say that using red light therapy for less than 20mins per session is ineffective then I don’t know what scientific evidence they’d be basing that on. In this recent NBC news article for example the experts and brands they spoke to all recommend shorter treatments www.nbcnews.com/select/amp/ncna1303119

Interesting but since free radicals can bring good and bad why the need of antioxidants with red lights??? My guess is that the ones who created those red light masks are the most knowledgeable on it so did not they make the mask to create the right amount of red light to producethe appropriateamount of free radicals.... The point of using antioxidants is not very clear to me even after listening to the video.

Hi. Bev was pointing to studies showing red light can enhance the beneficial effects of antioxidants and vice versa - and antioxidants help defend against the negative effects of free radicals. The optimal exposure to red light has not yet been scientifically proven which is why it’s better to err on the side of caution and avoid prolonged sessions.
