      • Avoid skincare products with vitamin C or retinol beforehand
      • This precaution helps ensure optimal absorption of the therapy's benefits.

      • Follow with a brightening serum for added radiance
      • Brightening serums can enhance the overall effectiveness of your skincare routine by improving skin tone and adding luminosity.

    6. Results: 97.1% of users reported a radiant complexion in 2 weeks**

Pro Tips for Best Results

  1. Always start with clean, dry skin.
  2. Starting with clean skin ensures that the light can penetrate effectively and that any products used afterwards can be absorbed better.

  3. Use 3–6 times weekly for maintenance after the initial treatment phase.
  4. Regular use is key for maintaining skin health, especially after an initial intensive treatment phase.

  5. Combine with your favorite serum post-treatment to boost absorption.

  1. Do not exceed 15 minutes per session and 26 minutes per day.
  2. Adhering to the recommended time limits helps ensure a safe and effective treatment experience.

  3. Discontinue use if you experience unusual irritation.
  4. It's important to listen to your body; irritation can be a sign to pause treatment.

  5. Do not use retinol, vitamin C, or other photosensitive skincare products before a session.
  6. Avoiding certain products before treatment can help prevent adverse reactions during red light therapy.

  7. Consult your dermatologist if you have light-sensitive conditions.
