    Frequently asked questions

    See all FAQs
    How long will it take to see results?

    The Bye Acne device combines blue and red LED light therapies to address acne concerns. While results vary, many users observe noticeable changes within a few sessions. Others may need consistent use over several weeks. As with any skincare treatment, consistent use is key.

    Which areas does the Bye Acne device target?

    Individual pimples and breakout areas anywhere on the face — place the treatment head directly over the spot, 3 minutes per area.

    When should I use the Bye Acne?

    The Bye Acne device is primarily designed for active treatment of acne flare-ups. Using it daily, or as often as recommended, can accelerate the healing process for those currently experiencing acne or inflammation. It can also be used as part of your regular skincare routine.

    Should I use the Bye Acne before or after I wash my face?

    Always begin with a freshly cleansed face when using devices like Bye Acne. Washing your face ensures the removal of dirt, oil, and makeup that might hinder the device's effectiveness.

    Will I get better results if I use it more often?

    The Bye Acne device harnesses the power of red and blue LED light therapy to combat acne-causing bacteria and inflammation. We recommend using it once per day over inflamed areas. Consistency is key--keep using Bye Acne daily until your breakout has diminished.

    Can everyone use the Bye Acne device?

    Most healthy adults can use Bye Acne Light Therapy device.
 However, there are some contraindications: the device is not recommended for those who are under the age of 18, are subject to seizures or photosensitivity, have active cancer, or have a known allergy to plastics. Do not use the device if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. It has not been tested on pregnant or breast-feeding women, and therefore the risk to the fetus, neonate, or pregnant women is unknown. Do not use if you have Fitzpatrick Skin Type V or VI.

 Please review the Contraindications and Warnings section of the Instruction Manual for more information. If you have any medical concerns, medical illness, medical conditions such as epilepsy, or recent surgery, please consult your physician before using this Mask. See full contraindications list here.

    How do I clean the Bye Acne device?

    You may clean the device using a damp cloth, water-based wipe, or a 70% alcohol-based wipe. Ensure the device is not connected to the power supply when cleaning. Do not submerge in water or apply water directly to the device.

      Game-changer: Breakouts kept at bay

      This little tool is a powerhouse! I have hormonal breakouts and this gem, which is soooo easy to use, has kept my spots to a minimum. Used with the mask my dark spots are also less noticeable. Fine wrinkles are quite diminished as well.

      actually works!!

      I was interested in trying out, but wasn't sure if it was a gimmick or not. I've tried red light therapy for my entire face before and even though I was consistent in using it, I didn't feel like I could see any visible results.

      Eventually, I was given this as a gift because my brother was trying to use up his FSA/HSA money before switching jobs. I've since tried it out on major spots I've seen surfacing, and this device really does calm the spot down and make it ultimately go away. I most recently tried it on a spot that was surfacing, which I knew, if left untreated, would become much bigger overnight. I woke up the next morning and could barely see it on my face, which has literally never happened before!

      For where my skin is at (mostly clear but get spots ocassionally), this thing is a lifesaver for at least making the spot look less noticeable.

      Really love it!
