I have a friend who uses the blue light for acne and then the red to speed healing and reduce inflammation. She seems to be happy and I do notice a difference. LED light shouldnt be causing pimples. It could be just a coincidence. Also, I know that LED light works by stimulating a response from the body so for a red light (associated with stimulating collagen) you would need to be patient as it will take some time to see a result.

Some facts of Skin Aging
Aging of the skin occurs when collagen becomes hard and gets meshed with neighboring collagen fibers. This prevents the collagen from holding water and plumping up. Instead, it collapses on itself, binds with other collagen fibers, and forms a kind of fishnet below the surface of the skin, which is manifested as wrinkles.
Oxidation or free radical formation plays a pivotal role in the cross-linking of collagen. This is what happens:
1. The atoms of human tissue begin to decay, or lose electrons. This results in a deficiency of electron.
2. The atom attempts to regain its electrical balance by stealing one or more electrons from neighboring atoms.
3. This, in turn, creates another atom that has a deficiency of electron. The atom tries to steal electron from another atom.
4. The result is a chain reaction in which atoms are changing their structures and forming bonds that would not otherwise occur.
5. The net effect is a chaos of cross-linking collagen fibers, revealed on the skin's surface as wrinkles.

CMS - very nice summary. Thanks!
I'll just add one thing to complete the story, if I may -
Since the loss of an electron begins this deterioration of collagen, the reason that "anti-oxidants" are so important is that they provide or donate an electron to stabilize the atom that lost it. By protecting the integrity of the cell, they thereby slow down this aging process, as well as boost immune function, reduce inflammation, fight allergies, and so on.
So - eat foods and drink drinks high in anti-oxidants, or take supplements.

Is this tanda device like a baby quasar? I have never heard of this skincare line before. Where did you buy this from and do you know if it is available in the UK?Has anyone tried the tanda skin care (antiaging)device (red light not blue) - I've had it for a week and haven't noticed much other than the emergence of some pimples?![]()
Don't forget to keep us posted on your progress!
Hi, sorry I've taken so long to respond. What is a baby quasar? The Tanda is actually a hand held device which emits a red light meant to stimulate collagen or production thereof. It's very expensive and really (after three months use) I don't think it's worth the money $495.00 Australian dollars - so I wouldn't worry about this product (I bought the product from TVSN Cable TV).Is this tanda device like a baby quasar?

NY - see the link below for a list of foods that are high in antioxidants. I take green tea, blueberry, and Vitamin E capsules everyday as supplements because my diet is pretty limited right now. Sniff, sniff, sniff.

Wow, $495 Au is really expensive! My friend bought hers online for $295.00 canadian from a skin clinic called glowrescue in Victoria Canada. Might be worth checking out.
Also, the baby quasar seems to be a good item from the ratings I have seen, it's just that its more expensive and not as versatile, I think. Here is a link I found......

Before all you guys bought this i hate to say but this device never got very good reviews or opinions on the net and through other consumer opnions! So far most people tend to say that it is expensive and having to change the pads so often works out expensive! Hope it works for you though

$275 at Sephora gets you the smaller base unit. $295 at glowrescue.ca gets you a professional unit with one blue and one red ( large size ) treatment head. Better device.
As far as "replaceable pads"(?) I think you must have a different device in mind, as the Tanda doesn't have consumables or parts that need replacing after each treatment.

Hmm ironic, an anti-aging product that is named Tanda, which means OLD in Philippine language. My friend is from this country and he started laughing upon seeing this, lol!

This one is supposed to be the strongest of the LED devices for anti-ageing concerns:
LightStim - Anti-Aging Light - helps diminish fine lines and wrinkles
Much stronger that Tanda and somewhat stronger that BabyQ.
You have to realize though that it isn't a Magic Wand, LOL. You still have to practice good skin care and wear sunscreen! It won't undo a lifetime of bad habits overnite on its own.
