      wow that's one I saw coming as soon as he turned it on. I studied safe radiation levels for eyes for visible and near visible light for my thesis ( I had infrared light pointed at someone's eyes, it is invisible but still radiation). That mask is too much. They could put sunglasses instead of regular glasses and the problem would be solved.

      you forgot the words "risk" and "of" - but no matter. Every way you twist and turn it, light masks are a useless scam product like any other miracle cure. This is coming from someone that tried these as a teen (with "pizza face" levels of acne).

    You see green as the light from the mask is causing the cones in your eye that sense that light to keep firing signals and you become "desensitized" to those colors for a short time after you take it off, thus when you look around every thing is more green as you are not seeing the blue/red side of things very well.

    As a licensed esthetician, I wouldn't recommend this. This mask is literally just lights in a welding mask. This wont have the same affect as a medi spa or dermatologists clinic because you have to have a specific license and classes to use actual light therapy devices and apply them to patients.

It sounds fake snake oil salesman speech but trust me. I can send you articles if you want, real scientific articles. My friends' thesis was about it.

      it's just LEDs there's probably nothing in there, probably the cheapest circuit they could get to power those lights. They are high power LEDs, that are more expensive than regular ones, but still really cheap. The profit % for those masks is problably great for them. But red lights do actually work to treat wounds.

    The "Everything looks green", reminds me of the time I used the old Red and Bluegreen 3D glasses as sunglasses. One eye could only see red and the other saw everything tinged bluish green, for the next two hours.

  • @RobHFirstReflect
    @RobHFirstReflect 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Your vision going green makes perfect sense. Your red and blue cones are being bombarded when the mask is on. Once you remove it, the relative levels of red and blue in the real world are so much lower than the mask, you are essentially "blind" to those wavelengths until your eyes readjust. That leaves only green light visible to you for a while, since your green cones were not being bombarded by the mask.
    Also, I've no idea what clinical trials they're citing, but simply shining red and blue light on your skin would do absolutely nothing to treat or prevent acne. If it could, simply going out into sunlight every day would treat and prevent acne, as there is exponentially more energy from sunlight.
    The only way "light therapy" would work to treat acne is if you were using a laser to ablate dead skin cells and unclog pores. This mask is utter nonsense.
