LED LIGHT AND MICRODERMABRASION FOR HOME USE

The advances in technology for the beauty industry are mind boggling. Many of the developments started in either space research by NASA or medical research. Years later the ordinary person at home can enjoy many of the tools that have evolved based on solid scientific evidence. A variety of hand held devices are available for at home skin rejuvenating and treating acne. In most cases what we are trying to achieve is an increased production of collagen and elastin in the skin. For acne skin types elimination of bacteria, accelerated healing and reduction of inflammation are the goals. We feature 2 devices in this article LED lights and Microdermabrasion. LED lights (light- emitting diodes) are a very safe and easy method for increasing the production of collagen and elastin in the skin. While professional machines are much stronger and treat the whole face at one time, home devices are handy and price effective. When acne or pimples are the issue you can often nip it in the bud at an early stage and prevent a full on pimple developing. The colour of the LED light determines the purpose of the treatment.
  • Red is used for skin rejuvenation
  • Blue is for acne or pimples to kill bacteria
  • Yellow is to firm the skin
  • Green reduces redness in cuperose skin
Before buying, it is important to check the powder of these LED devices to give an indication of effectiveness. Home units usually only come in red or blue , sometimes a combination of the two. Yellow and green are more for larger salon units. Red lights 620 670 nm Blue Lights 420 -460 nm Bear in mind home devices will not be as strong as salon or medical machines and you will need to use them regularly to see benefits. However, there are some very good small appliances available. How Red LED light will help your skin:
  • Increase in elasticity.
  • Fine lines eliminated and deeper lines reduced.
  • Skin tone improvement.
  • Less sagging
  • Reduces redness from Rosacea
How Blue LED light will help your skin:
  • Kills bacteria present in pimples
  • Reduces inflammation
  • Blemishes clear much faster
  • Helps Control future outbreaks
Features to watch for:
  1. Battery operated or plug in - ease of use
  2. Size of head and number of LED lights - Bigger heads cover more of the face but harder to get between the eyes
  3. Guarantee
  4. Power capability in nm's covered above
  5. One or more colours in light if you need blue for acne or pimples. Some have seperate coloured heads.
Prices vary from around $70 on e-bay to $300 -$500 in department or specialty stores. I bought a $69 tool on ebay and am very happy with it. Whatever you buy have realistic expectations. Transformation is not going to happen overnight or ever, if the tool is left in a drawer. Microdermabrasion: Hand held battery operated microdermabrasion kits for home users are freely available. Results vary as with any appliance. DermaNew is a reliable brand which gives a result which is visible and feels good. The treatment takes only 2 minutes and can be done at the bathroom sink or in the shower. Dead skin cells are removed using a tool which has a sponge head that vibrates lightly. An exfoliating or resurfacing cream with medical grade corundum crystals is moved over the face with sponge head. Microdermabrasion works well in a few ways.
  • Skin rejuvenating (anti aging)
  • skins prone to blackheads and whiteheads
  • acne skin types.

For pimples and acne problems a different type of exfoliating cream is used. There is only half the amount of crystals and the formulation of the base cream contains special acne active ingredients. This cream is a more drying formulation than the Rejuvenation cream used for clear skin or those who suffer from blackheads. You will need to use this microdermabrasion kit regularly to see results but if you do your skin will show the results. Price range around $100.

✅ Relieves arthritis pain and stiffness – Reduces inflammation and improves flexibility for easier movement.

✅ Supports cartilage and joint health – Helps rebuild and strengthen joints for long-term mobility.

✅ Boosts skin hydration and elasticity – Protects collagen and prevents wrinkles for firmer, healthier skin.

✅ Strengthens hair and nails – Encourages strong, healthy growth while preventing brittleness.

✅ Aids muscle recovery and reduces soreness – Helps repair tissues and ease post-workout discomfort.

✅ Supports gut health and digestion – Helps repair the gut lining, reducing bloating and improving nutrient absorption.

Why it works: MSM is a natural source of sulfur, which your body needs to keep joints flexible, reduce inflammation, and support healthy skin, hair, and nails. It helps rebuild cartilage, strengthens connective tissue, and protects collagen, making movement easier and keeping your skin firm and hydrated. Since MSM is lost in food processing, supplementing restores these essential benefits for better mobility, less pain, and overall vitality.

Who is it for? Anyone looking for natural arthritis relief, improved joint health, stronger hair and nails, or enhanced skin and gut function. 

How does MSM help with arthritis and joint pain?

  • Reduces inflammation – Helps ease joint pain and stiffness for better movement.
  • Supports cartilage and flexibility – Provides sulfur for strong, healthy joints.
  • Improves mobility – Helps you move with less discomfort so you can stay active.

Many people with arthritis, osteoarthritis, and joint pain find that daily MSM supplementation makes a noticeable difference in their comfort and movement.

MSM for Skin, Hair, and Nails

  • Helps protect and restore collagen, reducing fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Strengthens hair and nails, preventing brittleness and breakage.
  • Boosts glutathione, a key antioxidant that fights pigmentation and sun damage.
  • Improves skin hydration, keeping skin soft, clear, and healthy.

MSM for Exercise Recovery

  • Helps reduce muscle soreness and inflammation after workouts.
  • Speeds up tissue repair, helping muscles and joints recover faster.
  • Supports athletes, gym-goers, and active lifestyles by preventing injuries.

Active Ingredients

100% MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) – A bioavailable, ultra-pure form of sulfur that supports joint health, reduces inflammation, and strengthens hair, skin, and nails.

Packaged in Australia from imported ingredients. Vegan, gluten-free, and free from additives or anti-caking agents.

How to Use

  • Start small: Take ¼–½ teaspoon per day (or 1–2 capsules) to avoid detox effects.
  • Increase gradually: After a week, slowly increase to 2–6 grams daily (5–6 capsules), adjusting based on your needs.

Best taken in the morning: Many find it gives a natural energy boost. Mix with water or juice.

If detox symptoms like headaches occur, reduce the dose and build up slowly.

WARNINGS: If taking strong blood thinners, do not take MSM without your doctor's approval. Not to be taken by children without a health professional's advice.  MSM can also interfere with the accuracy of the blood test for liver enzymes by sometimes producing false positive results. It is recommended you cease taking MSM at least 4 days before these blood tests. You can resume after the test.

How much MSM should I take daily?

  • Start small: ¼–½ teaspoon (or 1–2 capsules) to allow your body to adjust.
  • Increase slowly: Most people take around 1 teaspoon daily (4g).
  • Higher doses may provide extra relief—adjust based on how you feel.

Should I choose MSM capsules or powder?

MSM Powder is the most cost-effective option for daily use at home. It is the best option for those on a larger dose (2tsp+).

MSM Capsules are convenient for travel and great for those who don’t like the taste of MSM powder.

Where does MISMO MSM come from?

MISMO MSM is tested for purity and quality, ensuring you get a clean, bioavailable supplement.

There are two types of MSM:

  • Distilled Ultra-Pure MSM – The gold standard, made using a 4-step distillation process for the purest form.
  • Pure-Crystalline MSM – Created through a centrifuge process, maintaining high purity while being slightly more affordable.

Every batch is independently tested to ensure zero additives, fillers, or anti-caking agents.

What is the science of MSM?

Sulfur is essential for keeping your skin firm, joints flexible, and connective tissue strong. MSM provides a natural source of sulfur, helping your body produce collagen and elastin—the key proteins that keep skin smooth and resilient. Nearly half of your body's sulfur is found in your skin, muscles, cartilage, and bones, making it crucial for overall strength and mobility.
