From my own bit of research, argon electrodes are better for acne and neon electrodes are better for stimulation and dry/sensitive skin.

I am really interested in whether this product tightens wrinkles or not...I don't have any type of acne and never have, but am getting wrinkled around my chin and mouth areas. In the ads, they talk only about the wrinkles, but I haven't read anything on Amazon about that issue. I would like to find out before I purchase this item.

OK, I did the research as well and contacted the seller. The Pro for $139.00 has 7 argon gas (violet) electrodes and 3 Neon gas (orange) electrodes. The sellers should me links to prove to me that BOTH...Argon ( violet) and Neon (orange) electrodes do the same thing....they both take care of acne, wrinkles, tighten skin ect...ect...I was worried about the same as you. the electrodes do everything for your skin...( I did NOT mention it all above).This PRO for $139.00 has 26 watts... very strong! The rest ONLY have 10, 15 or 20 watts.

I would say it DOES help even your skin tone among other things. My cheeks and jawline were burdened with acne and acne blemishes. I barely noticed results when using this as a Mask 1x/wk basis, and even 2x/wk. This week, I used this as a nightly "Rinse", and now my face is almost blemish-free. I already use a konjac sponge to exfoliate my skin, then apply the clay (mixed with a few add-ins). I keep the clay on no more than five minutes, rinse, then moisturize. I did this for seven nights in a row, and WOW. What I looked like the Monday before I started this is pretty damn yucky compared to what I look like by the next Monday morning. I wish I had thought to try this sooner. I would say it DOES help even your skin tone among other things. My cheeks and jawline were burdened with acne and acne blemishes.

I suppose. I'm a firm believer that there's no one magic acne treatment out there for everyone. I've tried a bunch at different stages in my life and some worked and some didn't. I also found other ways to help it like for me no more pop and that helped. Stress has a role too I think. I recently tried proactive plus and have been on it for a few months now and am happy with it. I think I'm going to try their other product called "x out" because its supposedly all the steps you do in one step compared to proactive plus. If that doesn't go good I'll just switch back. I think its trial and error for everyone. Good luck I suppose. I'm a firm believer that there's no one magic acne treatment out there for everyone.

Well, I use this device mostly on acne whiteheads and it makes it exposed faster. For the most of the skin it does dry out if you would use it every day but visibly does make the pores smaller.

I have been using the lightstim acne light since April 2013. There is nothing I recommend highly enough for someone with acne. I used to get light - moderate acne on my chin, and cheek area. Since using the light every morning (usually takes me 40 min to do my whole face) I have nearly perfect skin. You can use the light at night too or twice a day if desired. It's expensive but I would pay 1,000 if I needed to. I would buy the light if you have bad skin.

I find that it tightens the skin on my eyelids. I'm using it as a moisturizer now. Its the only way to hydrate my skin without breaking out. As far as reducing wrinkles...haven't noticed much difference.

Hello. I have battled with acne my entire life and still do. My acne has been moderate but slightly more severe here recently, I'm 24. I would suggest this product but not for acne scars, the only thing I've found that works so far is bio oil. I used it every day sometimes twice a day just before bed and at the start of day. I'm not gunna lie it's greasy as hell use it fresh out of the shower and/or right after washing your face. I was impressed with the results, my skin had a slightly more youthful appearance and a significantly smoother look which u know makes a world of difference lol. Now for discoloration I use an all natural method a lil weird but a potato. Slice a thin layer off each day and rub the juice all over especially on the effected area. Google it! Potatoes have a chemical in them that stops hyper pigmentation that causes the dark marks but won't bleach your skin. Sorry this was so long but this is what works for me thanx.

I have been using my LightStim acne light since May 2012 and I am very happy with it. I am an esthetician and use it in my spa on my acne clients. I also take it home every now and then when my skin starts to act up. It works best for red, inflamed acne and hormonal / cystic. It will not doing anything for blackheads or texture.

Please re-word what you are saying, I don't quite picture what you are saying. I use my device liberally with success, takes some playing around with. I don't worry nor pay attention to other lines or creases, cause they will be there, tho the inner muscles of the face are what's getting worked so have faith your results will show in time, mine are!!

I was thinking of buying this Derma Wand. But was holding back to see if I could find anyone who used it and found results that it really worked . Has anybody really ever got the chance to use it ? To see if it really helping with the sagging jaw line ?

Yes! It's wonderful for your face. Just make sure you thoroughly wash it before and gently wash it afterwards to get all the impurities out to make sure you don't break out really bad. The first time I did it I was covered in acne the day after. And use a good gentle facial moisturizer afterwards. Your face with be baby smooth!! Also I suggest using the full head, but use the "beginners" attachment that covers up 1/2 of the tweezer heads. It's a lot gentler and doesn't hurt nearly as bad.

This is just a blender and not for wrinkles. I use this with the Obagi tretoin cream .1% and I blend the 2. The Nu Derm diminishes spots like freckles and the Tretoin is for the wrinkles. I just had someone yesterday compliment me on my 71 year old skin and I was not wearing make-up, just a tinted moisturizer.

I had acne when I was young and alwayd used an electric shaver without any problem. I think its still the best way to shave at any age.

I have mature skin with no acne, but my chin has some wide pores. In trying to keep my skin looking young, I have tried many products and devices over the years. There are a few "keepers" that actually make a difference. One of the keepers is the Panasonic facial steamer. Using it is a part of my weekly facial care regimen. Every Sunday I steam my face with the panasonic steamer, then was using the clarisonic mia. Together, these procedures serve to thoroughly cleanse the pores and exfoliate which makes serums and moisturizer more effective, activates collagen production, smoothes texture and shrinks pores (a tiny tiny bit for a couple of days). I like the panasonic for three reasons. First, it creates a fine mist which is hot enough for cleaning pores but is comfortable and does not scorch your skin.Second, it has a timer that is set for just the right amount of time under the steam then shuts off automatically. Thirdly, it has a small footprint as is ultra easy to use and store if you wish. Use distilled water to prevent mineral build up. I have tried two other brands, including a professional grade, and choose this far and above both. I think steam would work well for controlling acne as it thoroughly cleans out pores. It works for mature, dry skin as it cleans and moistens skin leaving a perfect palette for serums.And it would work for oily skin as it cleans oil out of the pores.

You might like Bump Patrol Shaving gel. It seems to clear my acne up somewhat. I buy mine on Walmart.com for half the price. I'm a white male and white men use Bump Patrol. Great stuff.

I get acne that is triggered by hormones, stress. It's been about 2 weeks now of using this 3 times a week. Huge improvement for me.

I have super sensitive skin and also use Retin-A and Tazorac to help with acne and wrinkles. I had the Mia and currently use the Olay Pro-X (the one with 3 speeds). I haven't had any problem with it. I use it every day on the highest speed and I try to hold it with gentle pressure to my skin ( though I sometimes catch myself pushing it against my nose to get off flaky skin). So far, I personally have had no issues with it. I really like it (more so than the Clarisonic Mia which I had before).
