Product Reviews of BlueMD - Acne Blue Light Therapy TreatmentProduct Review: Life Changing Summary: 5 Stars
This product literally changed my life. Within 10 days, I saw an 80 percent reduction in my acne. In 30 days, it was 95% reduced. Stays that way, too (unless I get lazy and skip 2 days in a row). I would get up 1 hour early to start applying makeup before work, because I had layers and layers of makeup to put on to cover up my horrible skin. I felt like a monster. I tried every cream, gel, prescription, etc. I was getting monthly facials, seeing a dermatologist. I downloaded books about acne, did tons of research. Then bought this AND the tanda. I thought I liked the Tanda better. I guess because it felt "active" and I was "doing something" whereas this product feels pretty passive. But the Tanda broke after 5 months. This I've had for over a year and it's still working great. And now I've come to enjoy laying underneath it, doing nothing, listening to music and unwinding at the end of the day. I spent more than the cost of this product on over the counters, doctor visits and facials. This is worth its weight in gold.
Product Review: Much needed in a house full of girls! Summary: 5 Stars
Living in a house with three other girls (one of them being a former Ms. Kuwait), skin appearance falls under the category of Top 3 daily priorities because I have quite a bit to live up to. I had terrible acne growing up, terrible as in I was called "pineapple face" all throughout high school - my skin looked and felt like the surface of a pineapple and my hair was a completely different story. The aftermath of this acne, once tamed, was unattractively sized pores, blemishes, red spots, and of course, horribly toned skin. I looked way beyond my years chronilogically, and what person looking like that is going to have any friends?
I went to a dermatologist who prescribed me birth control (which made me gain weight), Finacea (which is said to cause growth of hair on frequently used spots), and Tazorac (which if you think peeling because of sunburn is bad, you haven't seen/felt anything). My skin was so dry, moisturizer couldnt help; I straight up had to use Vitamin E oil to do the job. Sure my lesions were gone, but the size of my pores was still the same. I couldn't find anything to give me that evenly toned, flawless face look I wanted, nor could the dermatologist suggest or recommend anything for me. I was never the type of girl to carry makeup with me and reapply during the day, but this problem gave me no choice. There is nothing more embarrassing than a caked face and hugging someone only to leave a cafe colored streak on their cashmere :-\
I came across Trophy Skin through word of mouth, read and researched it, and thought to myself that if I've already spent hundreds beyond hundreds of dollars at the doctor, I might as well give this a try. I would lay underneath this lamp, at night or during the day, 3 times a week, 20 minutes each sitting and only feel slight tingling where the heaviest acne on my face was. Not that it's a long time, but it gives you an excuse to take 20 minutes to yourself to relax after a long day; listen to music, talk on the phone, or just take a quick power nap as your skin is being beautified, hands free. Where can you go these days to benefit out of relaxing?
My skin looks 150 times much better, I've stopped going to any spas to get suffocating skin polishing procedures in attempt to get an even skin tone, I've stopped using any medical creams, and stopped taking pills. My pores have become *significantly* smaller, my skin feels so moisturized all the time, best of all: my skin tone is so even that I am entirely comfortable with stepping out of the house with just a dab of tinted moisturizer all over my face.
I went from spending hundreds of dollars on skin medications and makeup to almost nothing but tinted moisturizer.
Product Review: No luck here.... Summary: 2 Stars
After trying just about every "acne clearing system" on the market, years of antibiotics, and expensive laser treatments, I was really hoping that my search would end here. I was very encouraged by the reviews on Amazon, so I decided to make this purchase. I used the light daily anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. I found that initially there was a decrease in size of the blemishes, but they would never quite clear. Foolishly, I continued past the 30 guarantee hoping for a miracle, which did not come, and the company was not willing to accept my return. I do find my skin to be less oily, but it's hardly a consolation as now I just have acne and dry, flaky skin. This product is not worth the time and money.
Product Review: Purchased for my 16 year old daughter - It is working wonders! Summary: 5 Stars
My daughter is now 16, but has been suffering from fairly severe acne since she was 13. We started out with the usual stuff from the drugstore, but quickly realized that she needed something stronger. We went to the dermatologist and ever since, she has been on some sort of antibiotics. She has even been on Accutane for a while.
About a year and a half ago we decided to try blue light treatments at the local medspa here in town. She went twice a week for 6 weeks, and we saw results within just a few treatments. Only problem was we that it was a huge drain on our family schedule to take her there and back so many times. Also, we ended up spending almost $3000 by the end of her six week sessions.
That is when we discovered home blue light therapy and decided to try the Blue MD. This device has just been amazing on so many fronts. Her acne came back a few months after her last treatment at the medspa, so we really saw the Blue MD work before our eyes. It reduced her acne within 4 uses and pretty much eliminated it within 10 uses. She started out using it every day, and now uses it 2 or 3 times per week. Best of all, she has been able to back off of most of her medication, and we are hopeful that she will be able to eliminate all the meds in the near future. As any parent can attest to, kids are very image conscious these days. The change in her confidence and self esteem has just been wonderful to see. She doesn't hide her face with her hair anymore, and doesnt wear nearly as much makeup.
Product Review: Really awesome acne lamp Summary: 5 Stars
This thing really works, I've tried a couple of handheld acne lamps and they were too small and totally not powerful enough. With this it actually tingles and makes my acne go away after a few sessions!
