How to get red light therapy results without overdoing it | w/ Maysama founder Bev May Sanderson

Рет қаралды 67,639

Күн бұрын

This week I'm talking to science graduate and founder of Maysama skincare Bev May Sanderson on the dos and don'ts of using red light masks and panels to get results without tipping into negative effects.
She also talks about why she increasingly chooses pulsed light for skin benefits and what we should use on our skin before red light.

I just bought an upgraded red light mask, it’s soft and more comfortable than the older models. I really like it, I think it’s more effective than the devices I was using previously. On another note, I had a comment about the dry eye… Treatment can be very complicated and usually requires a combination of things… I suffered from this and had a terrible case of it for the last couple of years but over the last 8 to 10 months I have found great relief. when I first started using the warm compresses, I think I was using them too hot, which is actually very hard to tell if this is the case. I developed a little lump in my eyelid. so I started being extremely careful on where I applied to compress only to have it touching the lash line… Yes it was difficult to hold it in place for 10 to 15 minutes. But it helped a lot. Also, taking Alevera capsules, hyaluronic acid capsules and sea buckthorn oil, was the magic bullet. I also use hyaluronic acid eyedrops they are preservative free and I don’t use the over-the-counter refresh or other common brands. Anyway sorry for the long comment but I know dry I can be a very uncomfortable experience! i’m sure your doctor has told you how to massage the eyelids after the compress, and how to clean your eyelashes regularly, etc.… But it is so hard to figure out the exact custom routine to get an effective treatment. I hope you get relief :-)

It’s great learning about how the pulse works. This video helped me know I am getting more benefits with my full body mat that pulses and spraying my self with green tea in a spray bottle before treatments. I use my red lights / near infrared therapeutically for chronic pain, migraines, regulating my circadian rhythm, and brain recovery. Typically, I use my panel and full body mat together for 1 hour once or sometimes twice a day. I have noticed skin improvements on my entire body despite the long treatments. It’s a good side effect of doing full body treatments for systemic pain over the years.

I use a bed that has much higher frequencies and stronger wattage. I am using 630, 660, 880 and 840 as wavelength at the same time with 45,000 bulbs. It changed my life but am trying to understand about kin health and what is too much. Since I own it, I can easily overdo it! Because the higher wavelength (NIR) go deeper, I want to continue to get benefits to my brain but don't want to hurt my skin! I can't wait to hear back!

@thehonestchannel 8 ай бұрын

Hi Cie. Unfortunately I don't think we could specify a guaranteed safe time and frequency for you because we just don't have the body of research. I talked in the video about minimum use though and that's the approach I would take - what is the minimum duration and frequency you can use your bed that still delivers results? Sorry not to be more helpful!

Hi Claire, hope you’re doing well. Since a lot of people experience under eye bags due to a sleep disorder (I am one of them) or simply due to aging, could you do a review of the “LuminEye LED under eye patches”? I just came across this product and looks like this fills the gaps of red light masks or lamps, since you need to cover your eyes with those. With this solution, you solely target your eyes area. They claim 94% under eye bags and dark circles are visibly reduced in 3 weeks. So that sounds promising… Would love to see your take on this. Thank you and keep on doing the great work!

I love Bevs info on the pulsing so I am looking for that. I learned from one KZfaq that the pulsing specifically helps with nerve damage repair.

Lots of great information in this video, thank you! Do you know, or can you ask next time, what pulse rate or rates are being used in "pulsed red light therapy"? I have a NIR helmet (1070 nm wavelength, Neuradiant 1070 from Neuronic) that lets me set different pulse rates over a broad range. I could use the helmet on my face for a few minutes at 10 or 20 or 40 Hz, maybe I'll play with it some. For me, the benefits to skin are pretty subtle. I use an Omnilux Men for 10 minutes every other day and have for around 7 months and it seems to help, but frankly azelaic acid and adapalene are a lot more dramatic on my skin. I have also used a Platinum LCD BioMax 900 panel and the effect on my vision is fantastic! I get better acuity, color intensity and even improvements to presbyopia (the need for reading glasses) after 7 and a half minutes with the light at full power 10 inches from my face. Charging the mitochondria in and around my eyes seems to make a huge difference in my ability to see well. The same treatment even seems to improve my sense of smell, probably for the same reason (more ATP production makes everything work better). Keep bringing Bev back, she has a wealth of knowledge!

It's called a healing crisis (Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction). I found that when I use red light therapy or any other treatment that works, I go through a phase where things get worse before getting better. Just like massive die off of germs inside your body can lead to swelling due to the body not being able to flush the dead cells rapidly enough, I experience a 'bad' breakout when attacking the problem. If I had no issues before treatment, then begin getting breakouts during or after treatment, then it stands to reason that the treatment is 'shaking' things up. If Red Light did not affect the issue... then why would it cause a breakout? My Theory is that the germs, virus, bacteria, fungus or whatever is causing your body issues ARE affected which causes breakouts. I believe that it is part of the process that things sometimes have to get worse before getting better. ALSO, even after treatment appears to be successful, I think it is important to keep going with the treatment even after you think that you've won, since germs are so resilient.

Hi. I think Bev would be able to guide you on this bevmay@maysama.com - my own view is I would happily use pulsed light for a few minutes a day and then an LED mask later but you shouldn't feel you have to use both. I use my red light eye mask for 3 minutes most mornings and my red light mask for 6 minutes around every other day.

@maysamabeauty1839 8 ай бұрын

IMHO you would benefit from using your LED mask in addition. You could always reduce your treatment time with the mask, as you have already had some red light exposure. Maysama Urchin does not include near infrared light (although our Bian Stone LED Gua Sha does).

@@kimberly6123 I have a Hooga panel. I contacted their support and was recommended 10 min at a time about 12inches or so from the panel. They said that i could use more than once a day. An influencer here on youtube Jodylynn recommends using the Hooga panel 12in away from your face for 5 min and 30 sec a day 5 days a week. She based that recommendation from info found in Ari Whitten's book. That calculation can also be found on a website where you can input your devices info and it will calculate how long you should use it for and how far away you should be from your device with the goal of anti-aging.

I have the mask so what's the point of having to use a separate eye and lip mask?. Doesn't the mask cover most of it? Not any lights above the lip though, so I put the mask on my lip area for a few minutes.

@thehonestchannel 8 ай бұрын

The lip mask I tried for six weeks because I was sent it and it's designed to be worn right up against the lips like a dummy, so it's a little different to the mask. No need to buy one if you already have a mask though. I use a separate eye mask because my eyes are a problem area and so I deliberately give them a little extra each day. I use the eye mask for 3mins when I work out every morning and then I use the mask every other night. For most people, a mask or panel is perfectly sufficient if you want to try red light.

I have a less expensive non brand name light mask with a bunch of different colors which I rarely use. It feels claustrophobic on my face. I have thinning older skin which is easily marked by anything pressed against it. So...I bought a 12 inch x 12 inch Red Light Board. Red is what I am most interested in. The NM'S match the preferred SPECS of red light that Ms. Sanderson is mentioning. I like it very much. I like the flexibility of turning left or right to work on the worst pigmentation which is on my cheeks. You can't do that with a Mask.

I have heard anecdotal reports of this with red light and yet it's supposed to help with pigmentation.
