I tried posting the link but since I'm a new member it didn't work. I'll describe it instead.
-38 Super bright therapeutic red LED lights
-660 nm wavelength
-No harmful UV rays or infrared light
-Bulb ONLY. Fits into any standard fixture
It's just a red LED bulb that you connect to a lamp I guess.
Would this be as effective as the more expensive LED anti-aging products? If not, which is the best one to buy? Thanks!! |

P.S. Here is the link. You don't need to put "www" after the "//" and "com" goes where the underscore is. I hope that's ok.

I have another newbie question. I currently use retin-a. Is a person supposed to stop using this when starting LED light therapy? Does LED light therapy increase sun sensitivity? Thanks! |

If the wavelength is 660 nm then, in theory, the light will work.
But keep in mind that treatment time with this type of light depends on the actual output power of the bulb, the viewing angle of the diodes and the density of light at skin level.
If the bulb has a low output power and/or if the viewing angle of the diodes is to wide, it will take you forever to treat yourself.
If I were you I would email them and ask for some specs, like: size of the bulb, total output power, viewing angle of the diodes and treatment time/protocol.
To me it looks like they imported some plant grow lights from China and try to sell them as Anti-Aging lights. But I could be wrong of course.
You don’t have to stop using Retin A but make sure you only use it after a light treatment. |

I posted about this company recently. I had emailed them for more info and they never responded.
Also, please note what you are looking at is the bulb only not an entire hand held unit. |

Would LED light therapy help with stretch marks? Can anyone recommend anything? |

Thank you. I'm going to pass on this one. There are many posts about LED devices that I think it would take hours to go through. Perhaps I will but I was wondering if there is a general consensus on the best LED device(s) to purchase. I'm interested in using it mainly for prevention for lines and sagging. (Is it good for sagging?) Thanks!! |

I doubt it although it has some of the correct specifications for it to work in theory. However you can purchase more skin related LED devices off eBay for around that same price. |
