The FOREO ESPADA is a lightweight, compact, hand-held device that is revolutionary in the field of home-based acne treatment, as it enables the use of blue light acne therapy that has previously only been available from dermatologists. Specifically designed for use on mild to moderate acne and only a fraction of the cost of professional treatment, the ESPADA makes it simple to treat clogged pores, pimples and blackheads with laser precision and in the privacy of your own home.
Acne is caused by oil glands becoming plugged with dead skin cells and excess oil, which contains bacteria (P. acnes). As the oil builds up so does the bacteria, which results in pimples, redness and inflammation. The FOREO ESPADA works by firing a beam of powerful, 415nm, blue LED light into the affected area to attack and kill this bacteria while its unique T-Sonic™ pulsations promote the renewal of healthy skin cells.
Complete with laser-focused crosshairs and a built-in timer, this non-invasive device is made of soft, antibacterial silicone, which is gentle enough to use on even super-sensitive, acne-infected skin without causing the unwanted spread of bacteria. It comes with a USB charger and Instruction Manual, is 100% waterproof and can be used up to 100 times before the need to recharge.
