I've been asked many times for my opinion on the various gizmos I use to keep my skin looking young (at least the skin on my face...) so here goes!
Yes, I have all three. I'm crazy.
What they are: Antiaging lights produce visible and invisible red or amber light from LED units positioned on the head. These lights are claimed by the manufacturers to generate new collagen and elastin by stimulating the skin's fibroblast cells. In doing so, they purportedly reduce wrinkles, diminish pores and lighten age spots. These lights are a less intense version of professional IPL units used in medi-spas.
The likelihood of their working: Not that great therapeutically but possibly effective in a preventive sense. Hundreds of women swear by them however, and I wouldn't want to be without mine because it feels like it is doing something positive for my skin. The EDS forums are a great source of info on these lights.
