Solawave Bye Acne is an at-home blue and red light therapy spot treatment device for mild-to-moderate acne and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. It is FDA-cleared. It uses 415nm blue light to neutralize acne-causing bacteria (Cutibacterium acnes) and reduce sebum production. It also uses 630nm red light to calm inflammation and reduce visible redness.
Each treatment lasts 3 minutes per spot. Use it 3 to 5 times a week on freshly cleansed skin. The treatment is drug-free, pain-free and non-invasive, and it doesn't require retinoids, salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. It is meant for active flare-ups, breakout-prone skin and post-acne marks.
The device is portable and comes with a carrying pouch. It is not recommended during pregnancy, for anyone under 18, for people with seizure or photosensitivity conditions or active skin cancer, or for those taking light-sensitizing medications.
