Why do most before and after pictures look like a different flash was used?

Same camera, same setting, same flash.


However, the first photos are from our temp. location whlie we were waiting for our build out to get done. That space had an off-white wall, our new space has a greyish, purpleish, brownish tone. (I myself am color blind). That may expalin your question.

Sorry but there is no trick photography here. Just the truth.

The lady had 12 sessions, the guy had 12 sessions. Keep in mind that the results build for upto 90 days. Both pictures were taken at about 30 days from the start of their sessions.

We have had a 100% success rate.

Took me a while to see the difference but I think that was due to the different shading of the photos (and my poor vision). I believe if marketed right its very successful, have a friend that is doing well with hers. I understand JeffinKC had his up for sale a while back, anybody know why? Wrong market, bad results, or poor marketing? Just wonder for the people who are unsuccessful what the cause of failure may be.

What is the cost of maintenance on the unit, cost per session etc?

When we purchased the unit it had an option for a 10,000 hour warranty for like $900.00...we bought it.



Cost per session $.15-.20 est. (Still working on that) Tri-pack for session = $4.50 (cost) Lamps ????? LED's should last for a good 30,000 hours.



Solar Meter Steve needs to make a 633 nm model # 69 for us Lumiere people.



-Tom



BTW - RAI is still fighting with the FDA to release 415 nm since the doctors are fighting to classify all acne as a medical condition. I say it's too much pizza and poor hygiene

I put the blame on the vendor. it took them 2 years b-4 they really did any kind of marketing. I did everything they suggested and it didn't work.

What didn't work.... the marketing plan or the machine?

Got the final Model 9.6 Red Light meter calibration data 2 days ago. It came out very close to the prototype meters already in use. Now ordering label stickers.... will be done in a couple weeks.

Meter bandwidth: 577-661 nm at 10% power points. Peak: 548 nm. Response at 633 nm: 97%. Range: 0-199.9 mW/cm².

Be on the lookout for a new player never before heard from soon... maybe will debut at Nashville.

Why can't you Cove?
I would not put my money on it.. REAL skincare savy "educated" works much better here. Light Therapy is a good thing, but it takes education.

Looks pretty good. If you can make Sadam Hussain look better, imagine what it will do for the rest of the people of the world.

Why? Red Light is not even regulated by the FDA.

Ask Doug how to "pay them off" to allow it!

I am interested in your light meter.

My LED array consist of 516 Leds mounted on a 12 inch circular disc which is flat. the leds do not have a converging focal point, rather each Led is pointed straight out from the disc.

Can your light meter measure this type of light output?

Also do you have any specs on other light machines to compare outputs?
