You have acne or know someone who does. Perhaps you take pills and use creams on your face and/or body, yet your acne doesn't stop. You cannot discontinue your treatment, or your acne gets worse. This is not a good situation. Along comes the "blue light", a technique using visible light in the blue range to treat acne.

If you want to know how this works, read on. If you just want to know about results, go on to the next paragraph. The acne causing bacteria "corynebacterium acnes" lives in follicles since it likes a little oxygen but not too much oxygen. In some individuals, it reproduces and makes lots of "corynebacterium acnes" bacteria which the body tries to eliminate.

However, the porphyrin chemicals are very sensitive to blue light, which is safe and does not give you skin cancer. The blue light causes free oxygen radicals to form in the porphyrin chemicals and the free oxygen radicals kill the acne causing bacteria. Voila!

Eight treatments of fifteen minutes each treatment (two times a week for one month) will cause 80% of individuals to find that there is a 75% to 95% clearing of their acne.

Now, which would you rather do? Lay under a safe blue light for fifteen minutes two times a week for one month, or put creams on your skin one to three times a day and take pills one to two times a day for as long as you have acne?
