In this video, watch demonstrations of two technological wonders in the beauty and skin care industry. Both laser hair removal and photo light therapy at-home systems were tested and reviewed.

Over the past month, I have been testing a new technology for skin care. I am most excited by what photo light therapy has to offer. Not only is it recommended by dermatologists for acne, but also to treat aging skin.

Photo light therapy is an emerging technology that has continued to captivate scientists, doctors and acne sufferers. While you may have heard it referred to as IPL, LED treatment, blue light treatment or photodynamic treatment, each of these disciplines focuses on harnessing the healing power of light.

The ANSR: photo light therapy treatment comes with three products to fight acne, in addition to the beam. The blue light treatment helps to fight acne causing bacteria, while the red light treatment helps reduce redness and improve skin tone. For my skin, I have been testing the beam only, utilizing the red light treatment twice a day for 10 minutes each. It is a breeze to use - simply slide across a clean face. It is compact and travels easily, charging by means of a cell phone-like charger.

I am amazed to see a difference in just one month. My skin is firmer and acts and looks younger. How? The red photo light wavelengths are longer, giving it the ability to penetrate the skin more deeply. This treatment stimulates the collagens to create new, healthier cells more rapidly. As healthier cells crowd out inflamed and infected cells, the skin becomes noticeably clearer and brighter. And for me, more supple and firm.

I am loving my TRIA Beauty Laser Hair Removal system. For one, it's safe and easy to use. Two, I don't have to leave my home. Three, it's a lot less expensive. The other day, I was chatting with one of my dearest friends who is having laser hair removal done professionally. She shared the cost and, I can tell you, it's more than double the TRIA Beauty at-home system. Now ... I am not a trained professional. I cannot guarantee I will get the results she will. But it's so worth trying.

Want to join me? Get yourself a TRIA today - you'll only be one session behind.

I have been curious about laser hair removal forever, haven't we all! Especially now that I am so focused on Spring. Really, it's the perfect time to consider it. So, I got the TRIA Laser Hair Removal System and gave it a whirl for the first time today. I have to tell you, it was so much easier to use than I imagined. And the safety on this thing ... you have to pass the skin sensor test in order to unlock the laser. Talk about really smart technology.

There are three settings. The first one you feel nothing at all. The second one you feel a tiny heat pulse. The third ... I don't know, as I haven't tried that one yet. The latest version (which I have - it's just being released) is super fast! Seriously, the TRIA is incredibly easy to use. The recommended usage is 6-8 sessions, 3-4 weeks apart. I am so eager to see the results over this time period. For those of you who want to take this at-home laser hair removal challenge with me, get yourself a TRIA and report in!

In-office laser hair removal can cost hundreds of dollars per session, with up to 8 or more sessions required. That's where the value of the TRIA comes in. I believe the cost was just reduced from $995 to $795 (make sure to inquire). And results are guaranteed! The scientists behind the TRIA Laser Hair Removal System came together almost 16 years ago to develop this technology. Lucky for us, it's available and provides an alternative to in-office treatments.

Stay tuned next month for session 2!
