If you have ever spent some time in the sun and noticed that your complexion was clearer afterward then acne light treatments are for you. Light therapies were developed to mimic the acne healing effects of certain wave lengths found in sun light. This light therapy technology has been tested and proved by dermatologists to be effective for most acne patients. Studies show that the use of blue and red light waves produce better results than benzoyl peroxide, with overall improvement occurring in 3 months for 76% to 80% of patients. Approximately 10% of users saw little or no improvement. That is a 90% success rate!

Other studies have shown that two 15 minute exposures per week for four weeks produced a 60% reduction in acne infection for 80 % of the patients. Remissions from acne after the treatments were reported to last as long as 3 to 8 months. With these results it can be concluded that light therapy treatments are very effective and will work for the majority of acne sufferers.
