From the Corner Office
As a facial plastic surgeon, I’m often asked by both my patients and staff about non-invasive therapies that can support skin health. One increasingly popular option is Red Light Therapy (RLT), especially in the form of at-home LED masks.
What Is Red Light Therapy?
Red Light Therapy utilizes low-level wavelengths of light (typically 630–850 nm) to stimulate cellular activity, improve circulation, and promote tissue repair through a process known as photobiomodulation. This leads to increased energy production in the skin by
up-regulating our cellular mitochondria’s production of ATP, improving skin cell function.
Clinical studies show red light therapy helps with:
- Collagen production: Stimulates fibroblasts to increase collagen and elastin, softening fine lines.
- Healing: Speeds post-procedure recovery and minimizes scarring.
- Inflammation: Calms acne, rosacea, and sensitivity.
- Hyperpigmentation: Encourages a more even skin tone and texture.
Do At-Home Devices Work?
Yes, if you choose the right device and use it consistently 3-5 times per week.
After researching the available at-home devices, we have determined that OMNILUX LED Home Therapy devices deliver safe and effective results.
OMNILUX is one of the most clinically studied and dermatologist-recommended brands for at-home Red Light Therapy. Their FDA-cleared devices are backed by over 40 peer-reviewed studies and use optimized wavelengths (633 nm red + 830 nm near-infrared) for deeper penetration and proven results. They fit well and are comfortable to wear, and users have reported improvements in skin firmness, fine lines, tone, and overall radiance in as little as 4-6 weeks.
As such, we are now offering three OMNILUX Red Light Therapy devices:
Contour Face, Men’s, and Neck & Decollete. Notably, once we started selling these devices, more than half of my staff members and dermatologist colleagues purchased one or two of these for their personal use!
Bottom Line:
Red Light Therapy is a safe, well-researched treatment that supports skin health. When combined with in-office treatments and physician-grade skincare, it can be a powerful tool in your long-term aesthetic regimen.
Thanks for trusting our team to keep you looking naturally beautiful!

Why I Love DEJ Daily Boosting Serum
DEJ Daily Boosting Serum has become a must-have in my skincare routine. It’s the only anti-aging serum that boosts cellular energy while targeting the root causes of aging. From the first use, my skin looked more vibrant and hydrated, and over time, I noticed a real difference in firmness, texture, and overall tone.
What makes it special is how it stimulates collagen and elastin production at the Dermal Epidermal Junction (the boundary where the epidermis and dermis meet). DEJ’s structural integrity is crucial for maintaining healthy skin, helping to visibly reduce sagging and fine lines, whether from aging or even weight loss. It also provides powerful antioxidant protection, which helps defend against environmental stressors that can accelerate the aging process. The result? Skin that looks, feels, and acts younger, with a smoother, more lifted appearance.
And when I pair it with Red Light Therapy? Game changer. Red Light Therapy works by stimulating collagen production and increasing cellular turnover, and the DEJ Boosting Serum takes that to the next level. After a Red Light Therapy session, my skin is more receptive, and applying the serum right after helps drive the active ingredients deeper. It not only enhances the benefits of Red Light Therapy but also calms and rehydrates the skin after treatment. Together, they enhance each other, improving firmness, glow, and texture over time while making my skin feel stronger and more supported. It’s like giving your skin a workout and recovery session in one seamless routine.

The Summer Skin Glow
As temperatures rise and days grow longer, summer invites us to spend more time outdoors enjoying the sunshine. However, while summer offers plenty of benefits for our mood and lifestyle, it also presents unique challenges for our skin. From increased sun exposure to higher humidity levels, the summer season can take a toll on your complexion. Prioritizing a solid skincare routine during these warmer months isn’t just a luxury; it’s a necessity.
With the proper routine, your skin can thrive in the summer. Adapting your routine to suit the season’s conditions ensures that your skin stays protected, clear, and vibrant. With a few mindful tweaks, like using SPF daily, switching to lighter products, and staying hydrated, you can enjoy the season while keeping your skin at its best.
One of my personal summer essentials is the HA5 Hydra Collagen Replenish + Restore Hydrator. I switch to this lightweight but ultra-hydrating formula during the warmer months because it keeps my skin deeply moisturized without feeling heavy or greasy. It’s the perfect way to maintain that dewy, fresh summer glow!
