Is blue light effective for acne treatment?

Blue light acne removal is one of the technological means of acne removal adopted in recent years. It repairs acne without burning the skin, and is a good way for many people who pursue speed. People always have some doubts or fears about new things. But as long as you know its operating principles and understand the benefits or harms it has on the human body, you will feel more at ease using it in the future. So is this method effective in removing acne?

Red and blue light acne removal specifically refers to the use of red and blue light in beauty equipment to achieve the effect of acne removal. Red and blue light beauty instruments use special frequencies (bands) to directly stimulate the regeneration of collagen under the epidermis, and the energy density is very low. The photons trigger the body to convert the photon energy into cellular energy without generating any thermal effects.

Red and blue light acne removal is based on the blue light acting on the surface of the skin, killing Propionibacterium acnes and playing an antibacterial and anti-inflammatory role. It can also effectively inhibit the secretion of sebaceous glands and prevent the recurrence of acne; while red light can pass through the surface tissue of the skin, act on scar tissue, prompting cells to secrete collagen and play a role in removing acne marks and repairing acne scars.

Therapeutic effect

1. Blue light removes acne through a series of natural physical processes, including eliminating acne bacteria, changing the pH value inside cells, and more importantly, improving the immune mechanism.

2. Because of these, the effect is obvious during the treatment process, and after stopping the treatment, the effect will continue and will not recur easily. It is an effective photodynamic method.

3. Independent application of blue light to treat acne can reduce inflammatory lesions by an average of 73%.

Combining blue and red light to treat acne is a new treatment approach. It can effectively clear inflammatory and cystic acne and improve the immune mechanism.
