This facial treatment device raises a lot of questions in the world of beauty. However, the doctor believes that this technology, now essential for skin care and the fight against skin aging, is truly worth the detour.
Jimmy Mohamed surprised many people by confirming the effectiveness of an anti-aging device that has become omnipresent in facial care routines. From the start of his intervention on RTL morning, the doctor wanted to put an end to the suspicions surrounding this beauty device: “It’s not a scam“, he said. Far from the vague promises often associated with current cosmetic trends for the skin, he explains that we are talking here about a care technology already well established in the medical world and now adapted to the treatment of the epidermis.
Indeed, this beauty accessory is based on what is called photobiomodulation, a technique aimed at stimulating certain biological reactions beneficial for the health of the skin. Jimmy Mohamed recalls that it has been used for a long time in areas far removed from pure cosmetics. In high-level athletes, it contributes to the recovery of tendons. In oncology departments, it helps reduce mucositis, these painful inflammations of the mouth caused by certain chemotherapies. And, according to him, it accelerates tissue healing. In other words, the technology is not a simple gadget designed to ride a trend: it exists, it works and it has proven itself in situations much more serious than a classic anti-wrinkle treatment. When we move to the field of beauty and facial care, the doctor notes that its interest has been demonstrated in dermatology. He explains the principle: a precise light, sent for a few minutes on the face, several times a week, stimulates the production of collagen and reduces local inflammation of the skin. And it is this double action that offers a real anti-aging effect for skin care. No miraculous promise, no instant rejuvenation, simply a biological skin mechanism boosted by a calibrated light source.
Jimmy Mohamed, however, insists on a crucial point: effectiveness depends on quality. “If you want a quality device, you have to pay the price“, he explains. Cheap models often lack power and LEDs, activating nothing, which fuels skepticism. The doctor presents a high-end model at 600 euros: “At this price, the power is sufficient and it is really effective“. These are, you guessed it, infrared light masks.
These beauty devices transpose a medical protocol into the bathroom. An ideal gift idea for Christmas, provided you are ready to invest in your skin.
