I'd heard about light therapy for acne for years before I took the plunge with my own treatment. I couldn’t decide if it seemed space-age and scary, or just a bit nonsensical. Really, how much difference can light make to one's skin? Well, to cut to the chase, I’m kicking myself for not trying it sooner.
Even the best red light therapy devices may not be the simplest thing to slip into a skincare routine, but when it comes to skincare routines for acne, it’s likely you’ve tried everything else to keep the spots at bay. Swapping your best cleanser? Endless iterations of spot treatments? Painful at home chemical peels? I’ve done them all. I had basically resigned myself to always having some form of acne, and decided to be grateful that it wasn’t worse. I was quite content to load up on the best drugstore concealers and be done with it.
