Solawave Bye Acne Spot Treatment
Blue light treatments are known to attack acne at its source without being as irritating as topical treatments. This one from Solawave helps fight blemishes and improves skin's radiance when you place it for one or two minutes in each skin region, starting with your forehead and then moving to your undereye area, cheeks, upper lip, jawline, and lastly, your neck.
Pros: FDA-cleared, Features blue and red light therapy
Cons: Some shoppers noted that they did not notice any results after using this tool.
Customer Review: “I've used this item a few times and what I've noticed is that it basically dries out the pimple. It sometimes feels like a slight sunburn. Not uncomfortable, but it does help bring it to the surface. I recommend using it on areas that are hard to get to, like around the nose or ear.”
mē clear Anti-Blemish Device
This device is a triple threat. Not only does it emit a blue light that destroys acne-causing bacteria, but it also includes sonic vibration, which boosts circulation to reduce swelling. It also subtly warms your skin, allowing the light to penetrate more deeply. In just two minutes, it'll do some serious work on your zits.
Pros: Targets blemishes, Uses sonic vibration technology
Cons: Some shoppers noted the battery died after a few months of frequent use.
Customer Review: “I’ve had this device for well over a year. It works overnight on acne. And usually by the second treatment the pimple is healed. As for the battery I’ve only needed to charge it once and I use this at least once a week.”
Omnilux Clear
“This is a high-quality FDA-cleared device that’s made from flexible silicone and backed bypeer-reviewed science. The blue light (415nm) targets and kills P. acne bacteria on the skin’s surface. The red light (633nm) penetrates the dermis, triggering the body's own natural healing response, including the production of new collagen, the downregulation of excess oils and inflammation,” saysAzadeh Shirazi, M.D., board-certified dermatologist at La Jolla Dermatology in La Jolla, CA.
Pros: Helps clear breakouts faster, Softens the appearance of acne scarring
Cons: Expensive
Customer Review: “This device works. I use it regularly and found it has helped clear up my breakout and reduce the size of new ones. I use this in addition to my medically prescribed topicals. My skin is stubborn and the Omnilux Clear gives it extra support.”
Foreo ESPADA™ Acne Routine
“This device employs blue LED light and vibrational pulsations to fight acne and increase blood flow to help skin recover from breakouts,”says Dr. Camp.
Pros: Dual power laser, T-Sonic pulsations
Cons: Some shoppers noted it's not an instant cure and you'll need to use other treatments in addition.
Customer Review: “This is no gimmick. It actually works. It speeds up the process of breakouts. The deep ones that usually take 2 weeks to come to the surface now only take a few days. I love this device. I’m so happy I invested in this.”
GUGUG Skin Scrubber Skin Spatula
If you’ve been scrolling through #skintok recently, you’ve probably seen this tool pop up on your feed a few times. It’s a versatile skin care device designed to remove blackheads while deep cleaning the skin. It comes with a spatula and has a feature that turns water into steam to help open up your pores.
Pros: Four various modes, Charges with USB cables
Cons: Some users note that the battery does not hold a long charge.
Customer Review: “It’s mostly good for blackheads, in my opinion. It’s lightweight and works for sure! I just recommend using a light amount of aloe on your skin so that your skin stays wet. I also would say do a small area at a time. Cover your nose in a light layer of aloe, and do that section. Scraping it across your entire face all at one time won’t work as well.”
