Tria skin perfecting blue light

You may have read in one of my recent posts that I experienced pretty bad acne in my teens and early twenties. Now that I am in my late thirties and I feel pretty confident that the worse of my acne days are over, I have considered laser treatment for acne. However, before trying a treatment that seems as intrusive as laser treatment and because I still get the occasional pimple.. or two, I am trying out Tria’s blue light ance treatment.

What is it?

Tria’s fabulous gadget is called the Skin Perfecting Blue Light and provides a type of acne treatment that uses non-UV lights to eliminate bacteria from the skin. A buildup of bacteria is one of the main reasons that people develop skin problems. Once the buildup clogs your pores, pimples begin to form. Fortunately, this skin perfecting blue light will treat your skin quickly and effectively. To make it even better, you can now use this device from the comfort of your own home.

It is FDA-approved

Clinical studies have found that blue light treatment causes a 70 percent reduction of acne. Along with that, 93 percent of consumers had a smoother complexion in as little as four weeks. This FDA-approved product will leave your skin looking healthy and radiant. With this hand-held device, you no longer have to suffer from blemishes and breakouts; instead, your skin will have an improved tone and texture.

Recommended by dermatologists

Since the device has proven to be safe and effective, Tria Blue Light is recommended by dermatologists. However, I have learned that you should only use the blue light for acne for five minutes per day. It can be used in a single five-minute period or split into two sessions. The Tria Skin Perfecting Blue Light delivers the same therapeutic power that a dermatologist can provide. The blue light strikes the bacteria on your face and kills them; all without causing harm to surrounding tissue

My personal experience with Tria’s Skin Perfecting Blue Light

Using Tria Skin Perfecting Blue Light

I have been using the Tria blue light for almost a week and love how easy it is to use. It’s very light, easy to hold, and operates quietly. Using the Tria Skin Perfecting Blue Light is simple. Just insert the included cartridge and touch the blue light to your skin. The Blue Light turns on automatically when you touch it to your skin. Gently and continuously glide the blue light over your face. The blue light beeps every 30 seconds while treatment is being applied. After using the blue light for 2 1/2 minutes you will hear a different sound, prompting you to either stop and do the remaining 2 1/2 minutes later in the day or continue to use the blue light for a total of 5 minutes.

How to use it

With the Tria Skin Perfecting Blue Light you have the opportunity to accelerate skin cell renewal by using blue light technology. For the best results, apply the device over affected areas. For example, you can apply it to your chin and jaw. If needed, you can even apply it over your whole face. In order to use the device, you simply touch the light to your skin. You should glide it over your face like you would do with a paint brush on a canvas. The sleek design and contoured handle makes the device simple to use. It even has a large tip to effectively penetrate the skin.

Increase self esteem

Because my son is almost a teenager and I want him to know how to get rid of acne if it becomes a serious issue, I have researched a lot of acne treatment reviews. Since learning about Tria’s skin perfecting Blue Light, I feel confident that he won’t have to worry about developing anything more than the occasional pimple. The skin perfecting blue light is a great way to increase your self-esteem… I wish it was around when I had acne.
I no longer need to use topical creams to clear up the pimples I get. I am thrilled that we now have a safe and effective way to treat pimples!

With this affordable gadget, you have the option to treat your face from the comfort of your own home. Pretty great isn’t it?

When I was in highschool I developed acne. It stuck with me until I was about 25 years old. Acne had a huge impact on my life. I grew my hair long just so I could use it to cover my face at school. I covered my cheeks with my hands as I sat at my desk and I was not very social because I was embarassed about my acne. The good thing is that my peers did not make fun of me..that I know of at least. I sought the best acne treatment available at the time including medication but nothing worked. Things like light treatment weren’t an option when I was a teenager.

I am extremely grateful to not have major skin issues now but I still get pimples. Now, at almost 40 years old and after having gone through menopause (I thought that was a pimple cure-all) I still get pimples. Every morning when I put make-up on the tiny scars on my cheeks remind me of what I went through as a middle and high-schooler and into my twenties.

My son entering the teen years and you probably know what happens then. One of the changes he’s experiencing is with his skin. He gets pimples on his chin and forehead, the typical T-zone areas. He is a confident kid and is not as bothered about having pimples as I was at his age. He takes care of his skin by washing and using cleansing pads but I get very concerned about him developing bad acne like what I had. I hope and pray that neither of my children will develop acne like what I had and that we don’t ever have to seek the help of a professional for acne treatment. With that, I am very happy to have been given the opportunity to try the Tria Blue Light.

I will be participating in a 4-week program during which we will both use the Tria Skin Perfecting Blue Light.
