Does Red Light Therapy cause Facial Fat/Volume Loss?? | Can RLT be used for Weight Loss??

Welcome back:)
Red Light Therapy has become quite popular as an at home modality for skin rejuvenation. However, lately there is some debate around the possible risk of RLT causing facial fat loss. To answer to question "does red light therapy cause facial fat loss?" I invited Bev Sanderson, the founder of Maysama. Not only is Bev's knowledge on RLT is exceptional, but Bev also consulted with the world's leading expert on RLT, to give us an answer.

Great video! I have used the Lightstim right against my face for an hour every day for 8 years and I have never experienced any fat loss - just benefits.

[dorset]

interesting because I have Platinum red light panels and have definitely experienced facial fat loss - unfortunately

“Indirect evidence suggests” that RLT targets unhealthy cells yet conversely, indirect and perhaps unreliable evidence suggests that it does cause facial fat loss (as she discounts earlier in the video). While I use RLT/NI therapy regularly (as well as Maysama) I’m cautious that we’re cherry picking data to support a market for this product here. If RLT without green tea/antioxidants perpetuates oxidative stress, would oxidative damaged cells not be considered unhealthy? I also worry Tretinoin induced inflammation may create these unhealthy cells as well, particularly for some people. I regularly use both therapies and am always searching for more conclusive evidence on concomitant use of these two therapies; it does not exist (at least that I have found). I appreciate the interview but I still have reserves until there is direct evident available.

Thank you Claudia, this was so interesting! I had seen some things online about facial fat loss from red light, this really puts my mind at ease. That makes perfect sense that the red light restores health and is not a fat sucking device. Great interview, thanks!

[emilymiller]

Not exactly a content related comment, but I've been watching your videos for awhile (thank you). I know that you have been concerned about facial "hollowness" in the past and in my opinion and from my perspective, it seems to me that this has improved dramatically for you. You've always been a beauty and with that, even more so.

[morningmayan]

Claudia I think your Sculptra is really filling in your face you look GREAT!!!!

[TamarasTimelessBeauty]

Super excited! Two of my favorite ladies! ❤

[ΒικτωριαΓιαλυρη]

Very interesting interview! I'm thinking of investing in some form of red light therapy. I have heard about it causing facial fat loss and it is good to know that that's not true. Many Many kisses ❤❤!!

[morningmayan]

Thanks for this! Initially when I found that same data online and mentioned it to a beauty groupI got literally attacked by red light owners but so glad you went into depth on this!

[ZoeMC]

Great video! If you do have a future video together, I would love to learn about the potential for red light or infrared to create hyperpigmentation. I have noticed at times after using my red light panel it seems like it brings out brown spots on my face, so I shy away from using it there. Just curious! Thanks Claudia xoxo

[christinemack]

Hi Gorgeous, That's good news. You ladies are brilliant and would love another video. I use a highly recommended LED mask and have experienced irritation on my nose; it looks like blood vessels coming to the surface and redness on the tip. I don't know if anyone else has experienced this. I now cover my nose when I use it and skin is improving. I wouldn't want to give up my mask! I hope you're having fantastic adventures and doing great! xo

[Agatambffhjgffvc]

Hi beautiful Claudia 💖 I'm very excited to watch the video in the evening. Another interesting piece of information! xx

[SkinObsessedMary]

I'm thrilled to see this - thank you! There's a lot of buzz out there right now about this specific thing (I've been asked many times myself) so I'll be sharing this video for sure. Lovely seeing two of my favourite ladies together 😘

[AgingNaturallywithJodylynn]

This was brilliant! Thank you so much ladies for clarifying this information! I wasn't about to give up my RLT! 🙏❤️

[HollyL]

My red light Mito Panel is a must have!! Thank you for sharing beautiful. xoxo

Claudia I was hesitant on writing this only because I don't want to feed or give any attention to cruel comments. I happen to see the comment regarding your cheekbones and it really bothered me, so I felt the need to say something after all. I truly hope that person didn't give you any reason to see your cheekbones as being a bad thing. I think you have cheekbones to die for and I was truly saddened by that comment. Those are the kind of things that stick with people, even if we try not to let them. I do hope you know that you are gorgeous and have a beautiful face and cheekbones. People that go out of their way to be say cruel things like this have something going on with them. I hope you erase any thought she may have put in your head, because it isn't true. But I'm sure you are strong and have a thick skin to be here on YouTube, so I know you'll be fine. Again I just felt the need to speak out. Much love to you beautiful Claudia! xo

[Phoenixrises]

This was brilliant thank you my lovely…
You look absolutely fantastic!!!
What are you using on your lashes because they look so good.
I used to use lash serum but don’t anymore and my lashes returned to normal after stopping but I’m using castor oil now so fingers crossed but I don’t like mascara (like you) but wondered if you use clear as looks so good!!
I’ve so many vids to catch up on as so busy with my mum as last stage of Alzheimer’s but would love to know what you are using on everything because you look so so healthy ❤❤❤❤❤❤

When using a near-infrared light (NRI) flashlight/torch after a hair transplant, I can confirm it hasn't broken down the long lasting local anaesthetic; this means it's not treating the cells as damaged. I've used the device on the face and hasn't affected PROFHILO: active for 30 days for this type of hyaluronic acid to build collagen. After this time, there was no loss of volume. My own Plasma Pen treatment with the fractional tip plus hyaluronic acid, active for up to 4 days, continuing with around 3 months of collagen remodeling. In other words, I've not noticed any loss in collagen as it keeps improving.

[deborahwalden]

Thank you so much for this rare information.

[stlounsbury]

Ok well this is giving me hope on many fronts.
I will use my red light /nir panel more frequently to help manage weight, and get some rooibos products.
Thank you so much.
