Not everyone can buy costly cosmetics.

[Robertcw]

Trust me, I feel that. But I think at least the Microdermabrasion system is a great value.

And the LED light system would be a long term purchase that should keep working for a long time.

[Opinion Owner]

The people who can afford these things can afford surgeries too. The cost of dermal fillers is less than the LED light system with higher success rate.

[Robertcw]

Hmm, I didn't know surgury was less than $300. Either way, I don't think spending $17 on a month supply of microabrasion is back breakingly cost prohibitive.

Unless that $17 is really needed for food or gas or anything else. You could just use hand soap to wash and that's it.

But like makeup is at least as expenaive as this stuff isn't it?

[Robertcw]

Personally I would rather repair cells with science than inject toxic chemicals as a cover up. So I'd still pick the LED therapy over the fillers, unless it literally did nothing at all. But that doesn't seem to be the case.

by the way, I bought the neutrogena microdermabrasion system today on the way to work, and holy cow, regardless of the advertised features -- it's a killer waterproof vibrator with two separate modes of intensity.

I tried it out as a vibrator and it feels good.

Where's the citations from scientific sources showing any of these work?

[Robertcw]

Nuetrogena has one of the best R&D programs in the industry. They publish their results of clinical trials on the box. I have seen the papers in the past, but I didn't save them.

Retinol is well established in the medical community as is often prescribed by dermatologists.

Red light therapy has also been studied, but I don't have the actual papers. But it works because linger wavelength light can penetrate to the deepest layer of skin. Those cells then can use the energy in the light to produce ATP, which causes cell production in the dermalayer. And since dermacells produce collagen, red light therapy causes collagen production.

Vit. C has also been studied clinically. But I am less familiar on the actual science behind it. However, I have used the above cleanser and what it did for me was bring out beautiful reds and oranges in my skin tone. It also worked in evening my skin tone, and increasing the thickness of my lower skin layers. I could visibly see a difference when I had to cycle off it because I couldn't afford the product over summer.

[MlleCake]

Yeah, and you claimed that your claims are backed by science.

I want citations.

Thanks.

[Robertcw]

And they are...

If it's backed by science it could work.
