I have been on this forum before. Is there something wrong?? I posted this same topic last week but not one person helped with my questions. I've never had any post ignored here before. I am really disappointed.
Well, I will try one more time because I usually get great results here but if no one wants to talk with me after this post I will not share the results about how this Microcurrent 7 colored LED machine worked for me.
I spent $560 plus shipping and tax = $650 for this product
I had hoped to have more experienced people on the board give me their opinion before spending money but since receiving no feedback I purchased it anyway because as I compared it to the other machines on this board it seemed like a far superior product to me. Especially for the price and with all the colors of LED's it comes with.
I found out I was able to purchase a professional version, the exact same that they sell to estheticians.
Microcurrent/LED light treatment works together...
Microcurrent from 10 to 320 μa mimics the natural electrical current in the body. It reeducates the underlying muscle, lift, tones and sculpt the face while stimulating collagen and elastin and ATP for a non-surgical face-lift.
LED Light stimulates collagen and elastin and activates enzymes, such as catalase, diminishes unnecessary color amines in tissues, speeds up compounding glycogen, protein,and fibrin and increases tissue’s metabolism, relaxes skin and ligaments. It soften thrombus,diminishes bloat ness, discolorations, removes fattiness, reduces lines and wrinkles, eliminate pouch and black eye orbit, whitens, brightens and protects the skin.
Coherent LED light at frequencies between 470 nano meters and 640 nano meters has been proven to…
1. Red (650 nm): Promotes blood circulation and stimulates formation of collagen and elastin to reduce lines and wrinkles, heals xerodermia(dry and roughness) and exuviations(abnormal shedding) of the skin.
2. Blue (470 nm): Relaxes the skin, kills bacteria treats Acne and Rosacea. It corrects comedogenic skin—eliminates acne bacillus, whelk, tightens sagging skin and reduces winkles.
3. Green (520nm): Reduces discolorations including freckles, normalizes sebaceous glands, reduces black heads and sores, balances moisture.
4. Purple (400 nm): Speeds up skin renewal, reduces lines and wrinkles.
5. Orange (590 nm): Reduces scars, decomposes pigment and helps with lymphatic drainage.
6. Turquoise (500 nm): Strengthens and calms the skin, releases stress and helps cure sunburn.
7. White (400-700 nm): Helps the skin to absorb nutrients and have anti-aging effects.
I met an esthitician last week the only one in my area who uses this machine. I paid her to give me treatment before I purchased it and I really what it did for my face and skin.
The company does not require you to be a professional esthetician to buy the professional version.
It will come with an instructional DVD for the machine and also a full set of their skin care line which will also come with it's own instructional DVD.
It will take 2-3 weeks for the actual machine to arrive at my door but the skin care line should arrive in 2-3 business days.
I don't work for this company or any beauty company. I am a regular person trying to stop the clock/gravity from wreaking havoc on my face. |

Hi betsyaida,
I wish I could help with your purchase but don't own any LED gadgets (yet). 
I don't believe anyone is intentionally ignoring your post, we seem to have some very quiet spells lately?
Also with holidays coming up I assume people are just more busy than usual?
Please continue to share your experience, maybe you are the EDS trailblazer on this gadget? |

I agree with Dark Moon, I don't believe anyone is intentionally ignoring your post either. I do have several LED lights but what you have bought I am not familiar with to add any advice. Sometimes if we bring new devices to the forum we get to be the pioneers to test it and let others hear about our reviews. I think you have a device that has a lot of capabilities and if you are pleased with results could save you money in the long run. Microcurrent devices and LED lights are something I enjoy using and feel are worth the expense...yours maybe something that others might be interested in as you share your experience here.  |

Hi,thanks for posting this info...
i did look at the link you posted previously..as the info you posted interested me..and still does...but the info on the site was overwhelming for me ..at that moment in time...and it seemed like i would have to call the ocmpany to get the details i needed both for the device and the oxygen plasma(what is that exactly?) in the skincare line they carry...so i put it on the backburner for a later time when i could investigate further..
i have a question for you now though...are you saying that all those different color leds are on o this device (as i am especially interestd in purple/violet....i believe i've seen leds from 405nm - 420nm for this color wave)...or is this just a genaralized list of led colors and how they effect the skin...if the device contains all these led colors i am very interested now..if not.. although i very much look forward to your review..i will need to wait to investigate further at another time |

| it looks like it may be that dif color leds can be alternated in the little circle holders on the top of the device (this is me just trying to figure it out from the photo)...if this is so ..like i've posted..i am truly interested in this device. |

whoops...i just saw that the very name of your thread indicates there are 7 colored leds (this has been a very difficult morning for me..sorry to be so obtuse!)...
HOW VERY THRILLING...as i feel that dif colors have dif effects on dif indiviuals skin at dif times (IMO, way beyond what has been scientifically researched so far)..glad to see what this company has to say about the led color 'purple'..as i have been craving that color on my skin.. and recently did a lot of research on it..and do feel/believe from my research (not scientific however) that it does regenerate the skin (regenerate from the dna level i read...operates on more subtle levels than red, for example,which i've read operates more on the denser physical dimension...'structure'...bones/teeth/ligaments/muscles... etc..as well as what it may do for the skin on that more 'overtly physical' level)...and since i'm the type that does feel/appreciate that kind of info i am def potentially interested in |

| Hi, last question. I google the Dermacycle and the prices I saw were about $2000.00 for this same machine. Where on earth did you purchase it for only $500.00?? Tia. |

Hi LGD,
Here are links posted by betsyaida on her first thread. http://www.essentialdayspa.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=40251

Hello, I haven't been here forever. I ran into this video, I live near SF and the people that make and do this are in Berkley.
I searched for this on this forum but no results came up.
I am interested in this.
http://knutekpro.com/Microcurrent_LED.html
I wonder if the led man can make something like this and if so how much he would charge.
Here is a flyer with the specks.
http://knutekpro.com/files/40503174.pdf
What do you all micro-current and LED home specialists think?
I really liked how large the lights are. Most of the hand helds that are out there right now the laser lights are sooo small. |

Well, i did call the link and the professional unit is indeed available at the $595 price... with a 30 day money back guarantee.
i am very tempted to get this product..the only thing standing in my way right now is that my dh and i are planning on ordering a scalar cold lasar (with red/infrared and violet leds) that is a over-all deep healing device..but which also has an anti-agng program and costs $3300..so if that is effective..spending another $600 for this unit..as tempting as it is ..would not be necessary. |

Whoops...
there is actually a re-stocking fee of 15% for this product..so it would be $90 just for the re-stocking fee..if i don't get the results i'd like w/the scalar cold lasar i will order this unit anyway even w/the potential re-stocking fee. |

I ordered the machine directly from the manufactuer and that is how I paid $659 for it (which is $595 plus tax).
I called Jennifer PM me and I will give you her direct line I have to ask her if it is ok for me to post her number.
I don't know why I didn't receive emails about replies to my post. I would have answered sooner. I am sorry about that. I may have to change my email in my account settings. I bet that is it.
Anyway, Yes this unit comes with all 7 lights and you don't need different heads to have all 7 lights. The lights are all available in the 2 heads that are provided.
I wont receive it for 14 to 21 days but I will definitely reply with results.
Yes, I agree their website is very overwhelming. I received the skin care line for free with the machine. I will try it and then use it if I like it. Otherwise I may use what the experienced users on this board use with their microcurrent/LED machines.
Thank you all for your replies. |

betsyaida,
I am very glad you came back and saw we are all here.
I will be watching to see how this works out for you, sounds very interesting!
Make sure at the bottom of the thread or your next post that the "Notify me when a reply is posted" is checked? |

| Betsyaida - what is the treatment protocol? Can you use two lights with the same colour at once? |

I don't know if you can use 2 lights at the same time but as soon as I get it I will see if it's possible and post :
I am so excited about this gadget. It has all the colors I want and I couldn't afford other machines because they want money for each separate color LED as well as the microcurrant |

I've just noticed in the photo on this website that the clinician is using two lights of the same colour at once. Just scroll down to see it:

We are all waiting with baited breath for your review! |

| My bet would be with this being a professional machine that it would be used with both lights at the same time. Time is important in the professional arena. I really thing that with it incorporating microcurrent and lights at the same time there could be great result....I think it would feel heavenly! |

I can imagine adding up all the separate gadgets you are getting in one package and comparing the cost?
I think you found a nice little dream machine here! |

I will definitely keep you all updated. I think it will be pretty amazing. I actually had a local esthetician do a treatment last Saturday on 11/20 and it did feel heavenly.
That is why I went forward and purchase it without anyone else's feedback.
I plan on combining it with dermarolling. Every 4 weeks I will dermaroll and then use the dermacycle LED and microcurrent afterward to help it heal.
On a weekly basis I will use the dermacycle once per week per the instructions.
I expect after 12 months of using both that the results will be outstanding.
I will let you all know when I get the machine. |
