Do you have an acne problem? Hate going out and meeting people because of acne blemishes? There are millions of acne sufferers all over the world and there are no exceptions to those affected by acne. It is not just the skin condition that causes the problem, but it also causes emotional problems and lack of confidence because it is so visible. Teenagers tend to be the most affected group, just when they have enough trouble dealing with hormonal imbalances to start dating. Until now, the only way to treat acne was with over-the-counter treatments or medications and therapy from dermatologists or doctors. Now, due to technological advances, it is possible to purchase a portable blue light acne lamp and perform blue light acne treatment at home.
Blue light therapy used to be available only at professionally-equipped dermatologist clinics, but portable acne lamps have changed that. The FDA has approved these portable devices for home use in cases of mild to moderate acne. Acne lamps work in the violet light range 405-420 NM. Studies have shown that blue light in this wavelength range aims to kill propionibacterium acne (the bacteria associated with acne) while being safe to use and producing no harmful ultraviolet rays. It is quick and easy to use these lamps at home and only requires 15 minutes of treatment per day for mild to moderate acne.
The types of lamps available are varied and range from fluorescent type units to others using the latest LED technology or simply an LED bulb to fit a standard household lamp fixture. Prices are affordable too, starting around $50 for bulbs and $200-$400 for acne lamps.
