Blue Light Kills Acne Bacteria Light gets at the core of what causes acne eruptions: P. acnes, the bacterial responsible for causing acne inflammation, pumps out tiny molecules called porphyrins. When those porphyrin are exposed to certain wavelengths of light, they produce free radicals that kill the bacteria. Without P. acnes around to cause inflammation, acne clears up. How It Works The blemish appears. This plug, traps oil and bacteria inside your pore. As your skin continues to produce oil, the pore swells because of the plug, and bacteria flourish. Your pore becomes infected and possibly inflamed. The LED light targets and destroys the bacteria. Normal Pore Clogged Pore Light Destroys Bacteria Acne Classification Acne is classified as being in one of four grades. Each grade builds upon the next with the level of activity in the skin. Grade 1 acne is what is considered a minor breakout. There are a few blemishes, (less then 20 ) blackheads or whiteheads. Grade 2 acne is when there are more blemishes visible. There may be both open/lacerated and closed pimples, (15 to 20), but there is no inflammation. Grade 3 acne is the stage where inflammation is now involved, (20 to 30 blemishes) and the skin will appear reddish in color. Grade 4 is the final stage of acne, sometimes being called Cystic Acne. Grade 4 acne has many blemishes, the skin is red and inflamed and there are cysts which are deeper. Always consult your dermatologist for classification of acne. 5
