A skin condition often associated with puberty and teen years, acne can affect men and women throughout their lifetime. Severe acne at any age may cause scaring of the face, neck, chest and back or any other affected area of the body. A new development in the treatment of acne is the use of red and blue light to treat the condition. This acne light treatment method offers several advantages over the traditional treatments.

Acne lights do not involve the use of messy creams or ointments. They can be used while  students do homework or watch television.

The light emitted by the acne light is at very specific wave lengths, chose to kill bacteria and promote healing without damaging the skin. The blue light has an antibiotic effect on the bacteria that causes acne, while the red light stimulates the skin to heal without leaving scars.

The user will need to apply the light for around half an hour each day. At this exposure level, you should not experience sunburn or any further damage to the skin. If you notice any irritation to the skin caused by the light, you should stop using it immediately.

Users of the acne light should not expect immediate results. It could take up to eight  weeks of daily use before there is a marked improvement.

To prevent having to use the light for extended periods of time, choose larger lights if you have problems with more than one area of acne.

Acne is a condition that may affect a student’s self-esteem. If left untreated, it can cause excessive scaring, and may affect the persons feelings of self for many years. The price paid for an acne light and the time invested in its use are a small price to pay for the self confidence it can bring.
