PROFESSIONAL LED THERAPY, AT HOME
Created by the multi-award winning and globally recognised Dermalux systems, Flex MD is the worlds most powerful at-home LED device for use on the face and full body.
Using the only clinically proven light therapy wavelengths, this go-to professional treatment is now available as a flexible, portable solution to use at home.
The Dermalux Flex MD works by channelling safe and effective LED wavelengths into the skins different layers to treat mild-moderate acne, full face & periorbital wrinkles and temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain, arthritis and muscle spasm.
Let's get skin deep
The device has a total of 360 LED bulbs (120 blue, 120 red, 120 near-infrared) which send wavelengths deep below the skin's surface.
Blue light (415nm) is absorbed into the skins first layer. One layer down, red light (633nm) is absorbed. Energising the skin to promote faster repair and renewal, it rejuvenates cells using targeted treatments. In the skins deepest layer, near-infrared (830nm) is absorbed.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF THE DERMALUX FLEX MD?
If you're looking to achieve professional-level results at home, the clinically proven Dermalux Flex MD is ideal. The first home-use device of its kind, it's certified to treat a range of conditions on the face and body and has been medically certified.
The multi-purpose Dermalux Flex MD is an effective treatment for skin concerns like full face and periorbital wrinkes and mild to moderate acne. It's also certified to target wider concerns on the body like minor muscle and joint pain, arthritis and muscle spasms. This makes it a great device for the whole family to use.
Unlike other treatments, it doesn't contain any harmful wavelengths or UV rays meaning there's no damage to the skin. Non-invasive, safe and effective, there's no risk of injury or downtime afterwards and it can also be used by all skin tones and types.
It's also incredibly easy-to-use. Simply switch it on, choose which light you'd like to use, position your body under the canopy and relax for 30 minutes.
What Alice Says
Award-winning beauty journalist, author and beauty industry guru, Alice Hart-Davis shares her love for the Dermalux Flex MD.
What is the Dermalux Flex MD?
The Dermalux Flex MD is the gold-standard of portable LED devices. It is 3 times more powerful than any other device you can get for home use and is medically certified for the treatment of acne, wound healing, psoriasis and muscular and joint pain, so its a very serious piece of kit.
Whats it like using the Dermalux Flex MD?
I tried the Dermalux Flex at home during lockdown in spring 2020. I used it 4-5 times a week for 3 months and had detailed skin imaging done on a Visia machine before and after treatment. This showed impressive improvements in skin wrinkling, pigmentation and skin redness and a total reduction of my skin age of 9 years. So thats why I like this device.
Verdict
Nobody else in the world has the technology used by Dermalux, and Dermalux technology has won the Aesthetics Award (the Oscars of the beauty world) for best treatment five years in a row. This is good stuff.
IMPROVE FINE LINES & WRINKLES
Clinically proven red and near-infrared light therapy work together to treat full face and periorbital wrinkles.
"You see a gentle plumpness and smoothness to the skin after only one treatment, and those benefits grow with each use. Cheekbones reappear. So do dimples. Fine lines disappear and skin texture improves significantly - pores close and pigmentation slowly erases itself. My décolleté is smoother, less wrinkled from the sun and the red bib effect is fading down to my more porcelain natural skin tone."

APPROVED BY EXPERTS
The Telegraph's Lisa Armstrong commented: The Dermalux is in a whole different league to any other at-home device.
WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS THINK
"Yes, it's expensive, but boy does it work. As a late forties woman who sees her life mirrored in her face, I can tell you, the Dermalux Flex MD has wiped out the ageing effects of divorce & stress. Having had a ten treatment course last summer - I know the difference it can make. My husband had a ten week course too, and the acne that's plagued him for over 40 years - finally resolved.
But the lockdown has meant no treatments for months, so we decided to splash out and get the Flex for our own use at home. We use it every other day for thirty mins each. Its simple to set up, use and store, there's a carry bag too.
The actual therapy feels relaxing too and is like lying in the sun but without the warmth or harmful rays!
All in all, this product is a lifesaver. Expensive? Yes. Worth the money? Without a doubt."
- Pru, CURRENTBODY customer.
