Yes, many decades ago when I was in school, we were taught that the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cells, and this resonated so deeply with me that I became fascinated with this topic.
The PhD that first spoke of the benefits of red light years ago, now deceased, said two red 250 watt halogen lamps from Home Depot do the job. Super cheap forget the big expensive lights
This isn't a 100% solution -> Light Wavelength: Red light therapy panels use LEDs that emit specific red and near-infrared (NIR) light wavelengths, typically around 660nm and 850nm, which are believed to be therapeutic. Halogen lamps emit a broad spectrum of light, including some red light, but not at the concentrated and beneficial wavelengths needed for red light therapy. Light Efficiency: Halogen lamps waste a lot of energy generating heat and light across the spectrum. Red light therapy panels use LEDs which are much more efficient at producing the specific red and NIR wavelengths for treatment. Safety: Halogen lamps can get very hot, potentially burning skin. They may also emit some ultraviolet (UV) light, which can damage skin cells. Red light therapy panels are designed for safe use on skin.
@@OolongG952 I use them and they work great. I sleep better and helps my hormones. I disagree with the guy bashing halogen lamps. The halogen lamps I have are not white or yellow they specifically have a red filter on them. The light from them is red and you don’t have to sit close to them you can sit a few feet away and they don’t burn I don’t know what the first comment guy is talking about.
Your video is very informative. Thank you. I like the illustrations! Research has shown that consistency of use is the key to results found with RLT. So, I tried a RLT face mask. It was expensive, when I purchased it a year ago.I followed the manufacturer's recommendation for minutes of use and frequency of use. I do self-massage on my face. My 70 year old face has changed. The skin behaves like younger ,plumper ,more elastic skin, even under my chin. The visible sun damage has diminished. I now make sure to sleep 8 hours each night and eat foods ,daily, to help my body to make healthy skin.Sunscreen and moisturizers are essential to my skincare,now.
The photos of your face are not identically illuminated. In the "old" image you can see two tiny reflected spots over the pupil in each eye. In the "wow, it's shiny," the reflected illumination image is clearly much, much bigger/brighter. I'd be far more impressed with two images using identical lighting.
@@Anthony59754 it helped me cure serious disease. You can't go wrong with a flashlight that includes red and blue nm zone. The laser diode works better for reconditioning my skin.
His before photo even looks better. But, I need something like this 4x bigger or more. Put in in the wall. $100-$200. They should be able to do this with cheap plastic OLED printing. But potentially poisonous material. The ones they use in phones with very high efficiency, have different reject formulations that give different frequencies. Rejected due to not enough life span. At $100-$200, it would not matter.
They always do this. How difficult would it be to take photos in the same room but no; here's me in London and here's me in Hawaii 😎 Also the way he talks about the numbers of LED matters; LED have a long lifespan with a proper power supply. You're only going to use this thing for 5 minutes a day. A regular light bulb from IKEA lasts years being on for 16 hours a day. If anything this thing powering 1800 LED's without a good power supply would cause it to last shorter. And the whole thing about uniformity...I don't know, it's a flexible panel that you move around, I think 300 LED's for your face alone is enough unless each LED only covers a very tiny area like 5mm. I think this is paid promotion but presented in a sneaky non-sponsored way.
Hi - this video is very well done. One correction we would make - it is is not necessarily true that the more LEDs there are the longer they will last. LED chip efficiency depends on a large number of factors including: the class of compound semiconductor used to make the LED, the structure (doping, thickness, composition) of the semiconductor layers in the LED chip, electrode/contact design, light extraction structures added or created during fabrication of the LED chip, operating temperature and the current density. Current density is the amount of current per unit area of the LED chip. Of these factors, the most significant is the class of compound semiconductor used to make the LED chip. Furthermore, LEDs in panels like ours use focusing lenses (also increases efficiency) and are typically driven much lower than their maximum (25%-50%) - minimizing heat creation to help ensure longevity. The bottom line is that there are several variables involved in the LED package and panel design, which will determine efficiency and longevity. If you've enjoyed the benefits to your skin, we'd suggest trying a more full body setup! All the best - Team Mito
Probably the most comprehensive, well explained red light therapy I've watched so far. I literally learned a lot and most of the parameters you mentioned are the details I actually need when shopping for red light therapy devices. Thank you for making this video :)
this LED light brand he recommend almost feels like a scam, their website is really unprofessional and crappy, for a $1800 LED light, purchase process is shady as hell, customer service number is out of service, no return policy no shipping policy, cannot contact anyone in the company. if you're paid to do this, this is not right
*You have explained more about red light in terms that I can understand and given sources more than other video I've seen on this subject.* *Thank You!*
What a great video!! Your explanation was super understandable. Thank you so much! You also have such grace and poise on the camera 👏👏 Have you seen the green and blue led lights?
Green is excellent for reducing pigmentation, sun spots, and light scar healing. Blue is great for sterilizing acne-forming bacteria. We sell all three panels, however, the red is the most beneficial and widely studied
But what about the intensity and necessity to ensure such doses ? Does it justify the price ? buying leds with such specs and making it our own should be hard though because output should be tested and confirmed
Unfortunately many devices, especially the cheaper ones don't meet the medical grade requirements and I read that they can even be compared to putting a lightbulb by your face... Which causes negative effects... Not benefits.
@@Seaotters.and.smiles it’s understandable but I mean what’s the best value, the one he’s advertising is obviously or seems at least very overpriced even if it’s good quality. I’m asking if there one with good quality to an affordable price
Thank you Manik! I LOVE the science and evidenced based science and breakdown of how red light therapy works and what it is doing. Especially the different wave lengths. I appreciate your time and efforts in bringing and sharing this information. Your work has helped me to move forward, purchase a red light and begin therapy. Many thanks!
Amazing video and information. We just got the one you have from Lumara Systems, your brand is affiliated with them. Question: There were no instructions to how to use the Power Supply. Looks like there are different levels and then pulsing. Not sure what that's all about. Just curious if you an speak about that and the preferred levels to use and how to use. I did write an email to the company and waiting to hear back. Strange instructions didnt come with the panel. Also nothing on the website. thanks.
I am researching this now for my face. But mainly for severe back pain, arthritis. Honestly I would do anything to get some relief and function back. If I could sleep better that would rock my world.
I have used it for pain, and that really does work, one just has to consistently use it. I have always wondered if the purchase of another larger unit is financially worth it.
Join planet fitness they have an excellent stand up red light therapy. No way could I ever afford a $10,000 machine but for $21 a month can you use one

@@erastvandoren according to some studies you want near infrared and visible red light, and most infrared bulbs put out both. Especially if they're for farm animals and not actual IR illuminators
I think there's a lot of value in the doctor's video, but the before and after photo isn't so honest. The lighting is significantly different - low light in the before - bright light in the after. Still, all the other info shared is wonderful, and I thank him for that.
Excellent information. Lots of things you can do: I'd like to see you continue this series by trying the other wavelengths that increase cognitive performance, and muscular performance. Also, can you try/recommend a cap for hair loss? Maybe you can do interviews with the researchers who came up with these studies? Since you're a doctor you can probably get access to them, and ask relevant questions. Also, what about just going outside? If you are worried about UV, go outside in a shaded area? Like read a book in a gazebo? Won't you be exposed to the same red light? After all, white light comprises all the colors. I'd wonder how this compares to just doing some cardiovascular/working out in a lighted environment? Cardio would have lots of the same benefits and more like lowering cholesterol, improving memory and neurogenesis Anyways, keep up the good work.
Red light therapy clinics popping up all over my area in Florida. The cost packages for 15 minutes plus a whole lot of other poppycock are insane! For a few sessions I could buy two Infrared whole body domes. What would some good home/personal use infrared devices that you'd recommend?
Skincare is sooo important, it's hard to put into words. Red light therapy has transformed my skin, improving its texture and reducing wrinkles. At 46, people often think I'm much younger! Got my RLT panel from Future Form Official, and it's affordable.
Let’s be real-making time for red light therapy every single day isn’t the easiest thing to do. But, in the name of science (and my persistent headache), I decided to give it a try using the FF 1000 from Future Form Official. And, as much as I hate to admit it, it worked! After suffering from a stubborn headache for three long years, just a few weeks of consistent use actually made it vanish. I originally started using red light therapy to boost my brain health and cognitive function, applying it for 20 minutes a day to my face, neck, and chest. While I'm still not thrilled about committing to it daily, I can’t argue with the results. My skin is glowing, my head feels clearer, and I’m starting to believe this routine might be worth the effort.
Vese Manik Bhaiya app hamari Inspiration ho. Aj MBBS kar raha hu India mai par apke jesa banana chahta hu Love u a lot bro . have a wish to meet you once in life Thanks Bhaiya .
I just started the red/blue light therapy and i look and feel better after just 4 15 min sessions. I have RA and joint inflammation and im sleeping so much better because im not in so much pain anymore
Red is more specific to pain reduction and anti inflammation. Blue is more for acne reduction. So in your use case, you only need to get a red light panel. Look up 'Alex Fergus' on TH-cam. He does massive break downs and reviews on different price options for red light panels, which he further subdivided by regions (to avoid having to pay import tax etc). And if you want more information on red light therapy for anti inflammation/pain reduction, Google Rhonda Patrick Red light therapy. She has a big blog page where she consolidated all the information by use cases and lists the studies that back up her information.
@@brian8647 Good, I ended up ordering a Mito Red Light because it has the near Infrared wavelength and i even use it my older dog for his arthritis and he loves it.
Interesting $1800 device to provide convenient at home treatments taking only 5 to 10 minutes multiple times per week (makes it easy to reliably do treatment) Vs Clinics charge $25 to $150 per session, not counting travel time to/from clinic and wait time at clinic. (More likely to skip treatments when you get busy.) Plus can share device with spouse or family member. LED’s should last years. But there are much lower cost units that still work. It would be interesting to test the wavelength and power output to see if manufacturer specs on the cheap units are close enough to provide benefit.
Definitely doesn't have to be $1800. Mine is a base model one that's about two feet tall that cost $430. It's "spot targetting" but more than enough to get my entire back and front.
Would highly recommend microneedling partnered with red light. When I tell you my skin is completely different! I got a long way with topical skincare for my skin after cystic acne as a teen. I got mine for 90 dollars on amazon but made sure it was up to standard. Make sure you check!
Thx for your response. Which is the best specific device to buy and where to buy it from and how much does it cost? This is for diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Appreciate your response and guidance. Ur God send.
Could you also review Laser vs LED devices! Would love to learn how you compare Laser vs LED vs Radio Frequency devices for anti-aging or skincare and haircare purpose. Thank you!! :)
I'm impressed with the lumara panel you used however I'm confused about no Infared light mentioned. I'm looking to purchase one of these flex panels but understood the two reds were important. Am I wrong?
The ones you can buy are EXTREMELY bright. So bright that the near IR waves light up my eyes through my skull at the right angles lol. I don't doubt it's good for your eyes but you'd have to be looking away from it and have it bounce off the walls. You'll go blind if you look at it.
Thanks for giving the great details 👍 . There’re so many red light therapy devices in the market that one has to be careful what we can use for , eg for skin, hair loss … Could you do a video for hair loss ?
@@kevinmorris9712 red light works by releasing nitric Oxide out of the mitochondria, that is the gas that your blood and body utilizes for vasodilation, which means the opening of blood vessels and increasing blood supply to the area, I'm sure you can figure out the rest 😉.it's also good for increasing testicular function.
Wait… I’m a lighting designer, why does this talk about power (and led #) but not the distance away from the source to the skin? The inverse square law would apply, wouldn’t it?????
How does this compare to the BestQool panel you use in the other video? Is this better for facial anti-aging? Would I be missing out on all the sleeping and health benefits of using it on my body? Thankyou!
I was wondering the same thing. There is a huge price difference between the Bestqool panel and the unit he's promoting now. I'd like to know what happened with the Bestqool. Maybe it stopped working; these are things we should know so we won't purchase something that won't last.
Would love to know if this device could also work on the eyes. Or, is this just for the skin & or just a certain spectrum or can it be adjusted. I have heard new research coming out about red right therapy to improve stimulation of the mitochondria in the eyes to improve vision, by at least by 30%. Thank you.
Try using organic rose hip oil for scarring. It definitely gets rid of age spots, but I used it on a shingles scar and it completely disappeared after a few weeks.
Actually micro needling doesn't really work that much for scars. Siliconplasters can make them fade and laser or a plasmapen treatment. But you are handsome anyways, so don't bother 😉
Hello! Could you talk more about this specific panel? There's so much info out there about other panels and I'm struggling to find more information and reviews about this one.
Thank you for this amazing video. I also saw your video with the red light panel. Are you able to do a video with a red light sauna blanket? Also, what is your take on vibration plates?
Doc, you should try Yellow Light Therapy. Yellow Light only penetrates the skin between 0.5mm and 2mm, whereas Red Light penetrates far deeper. But the scars you're trying to get rid of are relatively superficial, and would probably respond better to Yellow Light Therapy. I personally haven't tried it yet, but will soon.
What about those single Infra Red lamps that are used to keep food hot and used in an infra red sauna, and some call them heat lamps and others say they are Infra read lamps and are said to be as good as the kind you talk about in this video for healing but ARE they real IR lamps and do they also help heal nerves, bones, muscle , skin, etc? Or are these single red lamps just good for heat ? The company or brand of kind i have is Feit. and no where did i find specific info ...so i emailed them and even asked if their lamp wavelength is 660 to 800 and something...and no answer yet. The person who responded to my question, did tell me she is having to go to other workers or look it up as she did not know. So still waiting. If you know or know how i can find out or look it up..pls comment on that.
Best informative video yet. Started researching years ago for cfs and body pain. Been using a hard heavy panel many years. Helps heal many things helps with pain and for my face at near 70 hardly wrinkled. No kidding. Good genes helped tho not just the lite and good facial care my whole life. No smoking and no sun on face without cover. But like you the face is fuller and skin healthy and am very happy with results. Use the same spectrum of red lite and the white lite. 880 and 660. Thanks. You look better then when started.
some of them have reduced sharpness on the beard luck of detail on the skin texture and look softened at least,But maibe i can't see right :)@@manikmadaan
@@ahnehtub2 I think every photo is going to be a tad different, due to different light or time of day, esp. if he didn't take them in the exact same spot.
I found a red light cap for hair growth and began using it a few weeks ago. Obviously it is too soon to tell if it will help with hair growth but on the nights I use it, every other night, I sleep like a baby. It said to start with 5 minutes and work to 20 but I got the sleep benefit the very first night. I will continue to use it even if i don't have any hair growth. The cost was only 150. and I agree, try a cheaper one, you might be surprised. Not everyone can afford to spend a thousand on a light, even though we would love too.
Thank you so much! I've been looking into trying red light therapy at my local tanning salon, but even other doctors didn't give this much detail! I feel so equipped now lol
I just bought the panel you used in your first RLT video! Was that one too strong for your face? Noticed it's more than 100mw. If so do you suggest I don't shine it on my face? Thanks!
You can definitely use it on your face as the power decreases with distance, so it's safe. Make sure to use it at least 6-9 inches away from you. It's great for full body red light rejuvenation. The one I am currently using for my face is for anti aging facial + hair benefits.
@@manikmadaan Thanks for the tip! I think I'll try this panel out and if it works really well, will check out the flexible panel for the face as well. It's not cheap though! xD
If you are already young & healthy you may not feel alot of difference... But coming from a point of aging, pain and illness, you may feel dramatic improvements. It is very effective.

Hi. Loved ur video & experience. I have tried Red Light Therapy for whole body after cryotherapy. I’m am 53 yr old black woman who is feeling the effects of full & loose face skin, body fat 40lbs heavier since steroids for allergies/asthma. I am in a lot of body pain. I stopped working out exhausted, work in medical field, sleep disturbances because of hormones & I hardly go out in sunlight, perimenopause, left knee surgery. I am trying to revamp my life: diet, exercise, etc. which red light therapy do u recommend for overall health & to bring back some energy/regeneration for inflammation, collagen regeneration, & energy fir a woman my age. Thank u for your consideration.
If a red light Mfr claims it works for hair loss, the 3 lettered agencies may shut them down. I use a $99 tendlite, 3 times a day for 2 minutes each and YES IT DOES WORK FOR HAIR GROWTH. I have been doing this for 3 years and it is hard to believe but it doesn't happen overnight. When I first started, I really didn't think it would work so I only did on one spot on my head. After about a year, I said, holy crap, this actually works and I had to start doing the middle of my head and my back bald spot. So now I am at a total of 6 minutes a day per in 3 locations for a total of 18 minutes. There is 100% chance this is true and works, at least for my 66 year old head.
Thank you for your work here. AND I wish you would let the presentation documents stay up on the screen way way longer than just keep quck shooting them and then shoot back to your video image talking. No offense please but it would be great to be able to read the supporting charts and graphs. Thank you!😊
❤next..., I would like to know your opinion on what helps most the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and the Profound brain fougue, also anxiety...a lot, but they're related..TY so much))
Try sunlight on the back of your head and neck. It contains all the wavelengths mentioned in the video, and it's free. Seems to have helped a CFS patient I know. Just be careful not to get too much UV light - you can look up the UV index for where you live on the internet.
The number one thing that will help with that is SLEEP. THE most important thing when it comes to health. It cannot be overstated enough how important it is. Secondly, mentality. Fill your brain with positive thought. Reduce stress as much as possible. Eat clean and cut out sugar. I struggled with Fibro (/CFS) for 4 years. It snatched my life away. Went from an avid gym goer to bring bed bound for the majority of FOUR YEARS. The past 3 months, from doing the things I said, I’m a whole new person. I’m even starting to work out more and more each week. (Still nowhere near able to do a proper work out, but the progress is observable week on week and I WILL be 100% right again, soon :)
So I understand very little about EMFs and trying to figure out the hack recommended to reduce them. I believe it's important for health and safety when using panels and mats. Question... how does the jameco device connect to the regular two-prong wall plug for use with a panel?
he called mitochondria the powerhouse of the cell and won our hearts.

Thank you Manik! I LOVE the science and evidenced based science and breakdown of how red light therapy works and what it is doing. Especially the different wave lengths. I appreciate your time and efforts in bringing and sharing this information. Your work has helped me to move forward, purchase a red light and begin therapy. Many thanks!
Amazing video and information. We just got the one you have from Lumara Systems, your brand is affiliated with them. Question: There were no instructions to how to use the Power Supply. Looks like there are different levels and then pulsing. Not sure what that's all about. Just curious if you an speak about that and the preferred levels to use and how to use. I did write an email to the company and waiting to hear back. Strange instructions didnt come with the panel. Also nothing on the website. thanks.
I believe you got a newer variant. Mine doesn't have pulsing or different intensities. I would reach out to the manufacturer
@@manikmadaan Sir, can you do before and after photos in same lighting and angles? That will be more authentic and honest to see results.
I am researching this now for my face. But mainly for severe back pain, arthritis. Honestly I would do anything to get some relief and function back. If I could sleep better that would rock my world.
I have used it for pain, and that really does work, one just has to consistently use it. I have always wondered if the purchase of another larger unit is financially worth it.
Could be there's more to accomplish with dietary causations of inflammation, as well. Light alone won't cut it.
One of your best solutions(if not the best solution) would be to get inside of a sauna(at high temperatures for at least 15 minutes).
Join planet fitness they have an excellent stand up red light therapy. No way could I ever afford a $10,000 machine but for $21 a month can you use one
I used Castor Oil for arthritis, haven't had pain or swelling for 5 months now
this LED light brand you recommend almost feels like a scam, their website is really unprofessional and crappy, for a $1800 LED light, purchase process is shady as hell, customer service number is out of service, no return policy no shipping policy, cannot contact anyone in the company. if you're paid to do this, this is not right
I use a 14$ infrared bulb from my local farm supply and have for YEARS. Helps with the redness of my teenager’s acne flare ups. Works amazing.
Infrared is not the same. I bought a red light lamp for €35 on amazon.
@@erastvandoren according to some studies you want near infrared and visible red light, and most infrared bulbs put out both. Especially if they're for farm animals and not actual IR illuminators
@@athmaid So is using the farm light just as beneficial?
@@hilan3094 I guess so? You could try contacting the manufacturer to find out the emission spectrum
First time watching you. Great content man keep up the good work. Very educational. Subscribed!
Fascinating. What do you protect your eyes with while using this device?
I usually just close my eyes. But some people wear tanning goggles. The red light won't damage your eyes. It's your preference.
@@WELUVWILLJUM, After I use mine, the rims of my eyes burn or sting a little and I do wear goggles.
I think there's a lot of value in the doctor's video, but the before and after photo isn't so honest. The lighting is significantly different - low light in the before - bright light in the after. Still, all the other info shared is wonderful, and I thank him for that.
Do you think we need 2 different devices? One for face/hair and one for body?
One commenter just bought a bulb and used her own lamp….said results were great with 2x30 minute sessions.
Try these for eyes if you are 40 and over
Excellent information. Lots of things you can do:
I'd like to see you continue this series by trying the other wavelengths that increase cognitive performance, and muscular performance. Also, can you try/recommend a cap for hair loss?
Maybe you can do interviews with the researchers who came up with these studies? Since you're a doctor you can probably get access to them, and ask relevant questions.
Also, what about just going outside? If you are worried about UV, go outside in a shaded area? Like read a book in a gazebo? Won't you be exposed to the same red light? After all, white light comprises all the colors.
I'd wonder how this compares to just doing some cardiovascular/working out in a lighted environment? Cardio would have lots of the same benefits and more like lowering cholesterol, improving memory and neurogenesis Anyways, keep up the good work.
Red light therapy clinics popping up all over my area in Florida. The cost packages for 15 minutes plus a whole lot of other poppycock are insane! For a few sessions I could buy two Infrared whole body domes. What would some good home/personal use infrared devices that you'd recommend?
Full body panel for muscular and anti inflammatory effects. Face masks for skin anti-aging
Contour light is I think the best my Dr charges $30 a session. Really helps with my pain especially nerve pain.
Skincare is sooo important, it's hard to put into words. Red light therapy has transformed my skin, improving its texture and reducing wrinkles. At 46, people often think I'm much younger! Got my RLT panel from Future Form Official, and it's affordable.
Ofc you did. Take your bot comment somewhere else
Affordable for you perhaps, well out of most people's budget, especially Canadians these days.
Let’s be real-making time for red light therapy every single day isn’t the easiest thing to do. But, in the name of science (and my persistent headache), I decided to give it a try using the FF 1000 from Future Form Official. And, as much as I hate to admit it, it worked!
After suffering from a stubborn headache for three long years, just a few weeks of consistent use actually made it vanish. I originally started using red light therapy to boost my brain health and cognitive function, applying it for 20 minutes a day to my face, neck, and chest.
While I'm still not thrilled about committing to it daily, I can’t argue with the results. My skin is glowing, my head feels clearer, and I’m starting to believe this routine might be worth the effort.
This is an automated comment, don't fall for it
@@athmaid Thanks for pointing this out. They try and make it sound so realistic. So annoying!
Thank you. This is very good info! Question: Does that helps with strained eyes? And will it improve hair loss??
Vese Manik Bhaiya app hamari Inspiration ho. Aj MBBS kar raha hu India mai par apke jesa banana chahta hu
Love u a lot bro . have a wish to meet you once in life
Thanks Bhaiya .
I just started the red/blue light therapy and i look and feel better after just 4 15 min sessions. I have RA and joint inflammation and im sleeping so much better because im not in so much pain anymore
Can you recommend which red/blue light therapy you are using? I have arthritis in my wrists & one knee & hip. Thanks.
Red is more specific to pain reduction and anti inflammation. Blue is more for acne reduction. So in your use case, you only need to get a red light panel.
Look up 'Alex Fergus' on TH-cam. He does massive break downs and reviews on different price options for red light panels, which he further subdivided by regions (to avoid having to pay import tax etc).
And if you want more information on red light therapy for anti inflammation/pain reduction, Google Rhonda Patrick Red light therapy. She has a big blog page where she consolidated all the information by use cases and lists the studies that back up her information.
I just received my ILLUMINATE panel in the mail today. I'm so excited.
How has your experience been?
@@brian8647 Good, I ended up ordering a Mito Red Light because it has the near Infrared wavelength and i even use it my older dog for his arthritis and he loves it.
Does it work?
Has it worked?
Is it better to use it at night or in the morning? Or it doesn’t matter when to use it?
Interesting
$1800 device to provide convenient at home treatments taking only 5 to 10 minutes multiple times per week (makes it easy to reliably do treatment)
Vs
Clinics charge $25 to $150 per session, not counting travel time to/from clinic and wait time at clinic. (More likely to skip treatments when you get busy.)
Plus can share device with spouse or family member.
LED’s should last years.
But there are much lower cost units that still work. It would be interesting to test the wavelength and power output to see if manufacturer specs on the cheap units are close enough to provide benefit.
Definitely doesn't have to be $1800. Mine is a base model one that's about two feet tall that cost $430. It's "spot targetting" but more than enough to get my entire back and front.
$2473, and it seemed like they wanted to add shipping on top of that for Canada. Ouch.
Manik is also affiliated with Lumara - I think it's odd he didn't mention that
check out hangsun infraheat lamp $120
I built my red light box for $60, inclusive. Love it.
Thanks for going so deep into all aspects of red light!
Would highly recommend microneedling partnered with red light. When I tell you my skin is completely different! I got a long way with topical skincare for my skin after cystic acne as a teen. I got mine for 90 dollars on amazon but made sure it was up to standard. Make sure you check!
@Manik Madaan Do you recommend this panel for full body hyperpigmentation from ezcema?
Would like a video on the benefits of Methylene Blue :)
The most definitely!! ))
@@poysm I have heard a lot about this.What is it??
Thx for your response. Which is the best specific device to buy and where to buy it from and how much does it cost? This is for diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Appreciate your response and guidance. Ur God send.
Could you also review Laser vs LED devices! Would love to learn how you compare Laser vs LED vs Radio Frequency devices for anti-aging or skincare and haircare purpose. Thank you!! :)
What is the name of your device and where did you purchase it?
go to the link he provides.
I'm impressed with the lumara panel you used however I'm confused about no Infared light mentioned. I'm looking to purchase one of these flex panels but understood the two reds were important. Am I wrong?
That’s what I was going to ask, does it have near infrared light?
How about to use it for eyes improvement
F
Before/ after pic set shows he wore glasses after.
The ones you can buy are EXTREMELY bright. So bright that the near IR waves light up my eyes through my skull at the right angles lol. I don't doubt it's good for your eyes but you'd have to be looking away from it and have it bounce off the walls. You'll go blind if you look at it.
Thanks for giving the great details 👍 . There’re so many red light therapy devices in the market that one has to be careful what we can use for , eg for skin, hair loss … Could you do a video for hair loss ?
Just saw your other video! Do you prefer this panel over the other full body panel you originally usef?
For facial anti aging this panel is better. However for overall benefits the full body panel is great.
@@manikmadaan thank you!!
The skin benefits are crazy for myself , energy sleep, workout recovery, and even make sexual health, hair, it's all true and works
Sexual health? Do tell.
@@kevinmorris9712 red light works by releasing nitric Oxide out of the mitochondria, that is the gas that your blood and body utilizes for vasodilation, which means the opening of blood vessels and increasing blood supply to the area, I'm sure you can figure out the rest 😉.it's also good for increasing testicular function.
Yeah, sexual health? Will it make your peepee grow?
Wait… I’m a lighting designer, why does this talk about power (and led #) but not the distance away from the source to the skin? The inverse square law would apply, wouldn’t it?????
What would you recommend to heal neuropathy on the legs?
get a full body panel from amazon
How does this compare to the BestQool panel you use in the other video? Is this better for facial anti-aging? Would I be missing out on all the sleeping and health benefits of using it on my body? Thankyou!
I was wondering the same thing. There is a huge price difference between the Bestqool panel and the unit he's promoting now. I'd like to know what happened with the Bestqool. Maybe it stopped working; these are things we should know so we won't purchase something that won't last.
Interesting. Are there any papers about this effect on the skin?
Manik is actually an 80 year old man who uses red light daily, seems to be working well for you :)
Would love to know if this device could also work on the eyes. Or, is this just for the skin & or just a certain spectrum or can it be adjusted.
I have heard new research coming out about red right therapy to improve stimulation of the mitochondria in the eyes to improve vision, by at least by 30%. Thank you.
Dr. Berne has a pair of red light therapy glasses on his website specifically designed for the eyes.
I appreciate the good info.
Could you offer a discount code for the device you are using?
Try using organic rose hip oil for scarring. It definitely gets rid of age spots, but I used it on a shingles scar and it completely disappeared after a few weeks.
Actually micro needling doesn't really work that much for scars. Siliconplasters can make them fade and laser or a plasmapen treatment. But you are handsome anyways, so don't bother 😉
Are you still also using the full body red light therapy from your previous video, a year ago?
Hello! Could you talk more about this specific panel? There's so much info out there about other panels and I'm struggling to find more information and reviews about this one.
Interesting! Can you do red light therapy anytime of the day? I would prefer to do it before I got to sleep or is that bad?
you can, but not too close to sleep as it can be activating. I would that it 4-5 hours before sleeping. it does increase melatonin
Thank you so much for the explanation! Well Done! Can you share with us where did you buy your LED?
In the notes
12:56 unacceptable comparaison... not the same light...
What specifications on a device do you recommend for arthritis?
I do red light therapy at my Dr's specifically for my hand joints & can't go w/o it. Saves my hands from further joint damage
What full body panel would you recommend?
bestqool is the cheapest and the most effective at the price
Great results! Do you apply any other product to your skin throughout the week?
moisturizer, sunscreen
@@manikmadaan👍
Thank you for this amazing video. I also saw your video with the red light panel. Are you able to do a video with a red light sauna blanket? Also, what is your take on vibration plates?
Doc, you should try Yellow Light Therapy. Yellow Light only penetrates the skin between 0.5mm and 2mm, whereas Red Light penetrates far deeper. But the scars you're trying to get rid of are relatively superficial, and would probably respond better to Yellow Light Therapy. I personally haven't tried it yet, but will soon.
Nah bro green light is even better. Nature is green so your cells feel much more at ease therefore reverse aging.
As a biology teacher, I appreciated this video.
What about those single Infra Red lamps that are used to keep food hot and used in an infra red sauna, and some call them heat lamps and others say they are Infra read lamps and are said to be as good as the kind you talk about in this video for healing but ARE they real IR lamps and do they also help heal nerves, bones, muscle , skin, etc? Or are these single red lamps just good for heat ? The company or brand of kind i have is Feit. and no where did i find specific info ...so i emailed them and even asked if their lamp wavelength is 660 to 800 and something...and no answer yet. The person who responded to my question, did tell me she is having to go to other workers or look it up as she did not know. So still waiting. If you know or know how i can find out or look it up..pls comment on that.
Infrared is not the same as near infrared(NIR) or red light. It's a different wavelength. If you want these effects, you need NIR and red wavelengths.
Using both have shown greater results says Dr.gray
Best informative video yet. Started researching years ago for cfs and body pain. Been using a hard heavy panel many years. Helps heal many things helps with pain and for my face at near 70 hardly wrinkled. No kidding. Good genes helped tho not just the lite and good facial care my whole life. No smoking and no sun on face without cover. But like you the face is fuller and skin healthy and am very happy with results. Use the same spectrum of red lite and the white lite. 880 and 660. Thanks. You look better then when started.
Use non altered photos (retouched) for before and after!
All of them are raw. You can put them through AI programs that detect Photoshop or other forms of touchups and it will tell you the same thing
some of them have reduced sharpness on the beard luck of detail on the skin texture and look softened at least,But maibe i can't see right :)@@manikmadaan
@@ahnehtub2 I think every photo is going to be a tad different, due to different light or time of day, esp. if he didn't take them in the exact same spot.
Are all the parameters mentioned good for hair growth on the head? I'm assuming so since hair follicle is skin deep 🤷♀️
Hi, considering your first video on the topic, do you still do the full body therapy?
yes, this video was just dedicated to facial anti aging.
@@manikmadaanhow come ya didn’t mention how ya still used the full body one? Also, do ya have a reccomendation between the 2?
Subscribed! I am also interested in learning about your full body protocol.
@@supracuriousBecause he's a scam. He's not gonna answer questions that his spidey senses tell him might expose inadequate research on his part.
@@Kube_Dog 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Congrats. I work with Light (Lasers and LEDs) since 1994 and I agree with you about all benefits your have presented.
I found a red light cap for hair growth and began using it a few weeks ago. Obviously it is too soon to tell if it will help with hair growth but on the nights I use it, every other night, I sleep like a baby. It said to start with 5 minutes and work to 20 but I got the sleep benefit the very first night. I will continue to use it even if i don't have any hair growth. The cost was only 150. and I agree, try a cheaper one, you might be surprised. Not everyone can afford to spend a thousand on a light, even though we would love too.
Does it help with hair fall as well?
Thank you so much! I've been looking into trying red light therapy at my local tanning salon, but even other doctors didn't give this much detail! I feel so equipped now lol
Do you still use the body panel from your other video? Is it ok to use both?
Yes
I just bought the panel you used in your first RLT video! Was that one too strong for your face? Noticed it's more than 100mw. If so do you suggest I don't shine it on my face? Thanks!
You can definitely use it on your face as the power decreases with distance, so it's safe. Make sure to use it at least 6-9 inches away from you. It's great for full body red light rejuvenation. The one I am currently using for my face is for anti aging facial + hair benefits.
@@manikmadaan Thanks for the tip! I think I'll try this panel out and if it works really well, will check out the flexible panel for the face as well. It's not cheap though! xD
Great review doc. Very well said.
Is the red light cap for your head the same light as for your face?
If you are already young & healthy you may not feel alot of difference... But coming from a point of aging, pain and illness, you may feel dramatic improvements. It is very effective.
I never knew what brain fog was until I came out of a session of red light therapy and everything was absolutely quiet
What wavelength did you use?
very good vídeo, tanhk you, do you think this can help to treat dermatitis?
How is their mask? Is it ok for those that can't afford the flexible panel?
So much clear information in such a short video! Thank you very much! You got a subscriber!
Wonderful. Good at theory, and practical, and enthusiastic. A pleasure to watch and learn.

Im sold man.. where can i buy good full body light
Hi. Loved ur video & experience. I have tried Red Light Therapy for whole body after cryotherapy. I’m am 53 yr old black woman who is feeling the effects of full & loose face skin, body fat 40lbs heavier since steroids for allergies/asthma. I am in a lot of body pain. I stopped working out exhausted, work in medical field, sleep disturbances because of hormones & I hardly go out in sunlight, perimenopause, left knee surgery. I am trying to revamp my life: diet, exercise, etc. which red light therapy do u recommend for overall health & to bring back some energy/regeneration for inflammation, collagen regeneration, & energy fir a woman my age. Thank u for your consideration.
Use a full body panel. Planet fitness has one for free
Was hoping for some diagnostic lab results
Can you review the Irestore helmet for hair loss? Can you breakdown red light therapy for hair loss.
If a red light Mfr claims it works for hair loss, the 3 lettered agencies may shut them down. I use a $99 tendlite, 3 times a day for 2 minutes each and YES IT DOES WORK FOR HAIR GROWTH. I have been doing this for 3 years and it is hard to believe but it doesn't happen overnight. When I first started, I really didn't think it would work so I only did on one spot on my head. After about a year, I said, holy crap, this actually works and I had to start doing the middle of my head and my back bald spot. So now I am at a total of 6 minutes a day per in 3 locations for a total of 18 minutes. There is 100% chance this is true and works, at least for my 66 year old head.
😅GREAT THUMBNAIL BRO YOU NAILED IT
Thank you for your work here. AND I wish you would let the presentation documents stay up on the screen way way longer than just keep quck shooting them and then shoot back to your video image talking. No offense please but it would be great to be able to read the supporting charts and graphs. Thank you!😊
❤next..., I would like to know your opinion on what helps most the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and the Profound brain fougue, also anxiety...a lot, but they're related..TY so much))
I’m curious to know this as well!
Try sunlight on the back of your head and neck. It contains all the wavelengths mentioned in the video, and it's free. Seems to have helped a CFS patient I know. Just be careful not to get too much UV light - you can look up the UV index for where you live on the internet.
The number one thing that will help with that is SLEEP.
THE most important thing when it comes to health. It cannot be overstated enough how important it is.
Secondly, mentality. Fill your brain with positive thought. Reduce stress as much as possible. Eat clean and cut out sugar.
I struggled with Fibro (/CFS) for 4 years. It snatched my life away. Went from an avid gym goer to bring bed bound for the majority of FOUR YEARS.
The past 3 months, from doing the things I said, I’m a whole new person. I’m even starting to work out more and more each week. (Still nowhere near able to do a proper work out, but the progress is observable week on week and I WILL be 100% right again, soon :)
So I understand very little about EMFs and trying to figure out the hack recommended to reduce them. I believe it's important for health and safety when using panels and mats. Question... how does the jameco device connect to the regular two-prong wall plug for use with a panel?
Please do a video on microneedling! 🎉
Can you recommend a panel what i can use for full body? I want it for healing from sport and anti aging
