Better than expected
Buying an item as expensive as this im always cautious. I used lysine on a regular basis and when id get a sore id take 4-5 for a few days hoping i caught it in time. Then i got this and stopped the lysine. For almost 2 months straight I had sores come in right after another. Figured I'd give this a shot. I used it about 4 times a day for 3-4 days and my sore was healing. Once it was healing I had a horrible pain in the area for maybe a week. Wasn't sure if I was going to like this. After my sore healed I was without any sores for a while. I bought this in October and have used it 3-4 times. If I catch my sore when I get the tingle and its on the smaller side it'll heal without the scab. If its a little bigger or catch it when I have a slight bump it may scab some. I still don't use lysine but have thought about combining the 2. I just wanted to know and see how this worked. I can say that a few years back I'd get 1-2 sores a year. Before I got this i was getting them at least every other month then, as I said for 2 months straight. The sores do seem to be in different places from where they would normally be. Overall I am satisfied with this. I feel like if you do this and the lysine that'll help a lot more than just one or the other. UPDATE: I take lysine in the morning and evening now. I feel like I still get sores about 2-4 times a year. My healing time is cut in half now which is nice. My last breakout I had 3 sores, 1 the first day and 2 the second. A week later all healed up. In my opinion this doesn't stop them from coming in as I still get them in the same spots. This is only good for cutting the healing time down.

3 in a month - not worth it!
My experience with this product is truthful and honest. I get cold sores maybe twice a year, once in the fall and then once again in the winter/spring. I have always used acyclovir cream and L-lysine supplements and the cold sore takes a good 7-10 days to go away and then I don’t see them again for months and months. I ordered this product after one was starting to form in mid-February, and I wanted a quicker remedy to heal cold sores. My cold sore was active for 3 days when receiving the light and beginning the treatment. I used it for 3-30 second treatments twice a day everyday and also around other areas of my lips as well. It caused a burn on my cold sore to form and the cold sore did not go away any faster than with my previous treatment. I wanted to believe the product worked, so I kept faithful to the continued therapy and after about 10 days with treatment, it went away and I continued daily treatment on my lips daily like suggested and then a new one formed! I did the same treatment as the first cold sore and it still took 10 days to go away. I continued with the every day treatment to prevent any new ones from forming and again, like clockwork, a 3rd cold sore formed in a month’s time. The first two were on my bottom lip (left side then right side) and the 3rd is on my top lip. I stopped the light therapy after 6 days with the third cold sore and it is still healing and visible. I was too afraid a 4th would form so I wanted to prevent that. Hopefully nothing else forms. In my opinion, this light is activating them and keeping them active for weeks. I miss kissing my son and my husband and couldn’t take anymore so I just returned it and wanted to warn everyone in advance of my experience. Do yourself a favor and see a doctor and get prescribed acyclovir. For someone like me who doesn’t get these often and got 3 in a month, it’s not worth it!

My before and after with Luminance Red
“Gross! You always have sores on your lips,” I heard coming from another student in my 3rd grade class with an accusing finger pointed straight at a cold sore that had broken out that morning. Even though that was years ago I still remember it vividly. This was my introduction to what a life with cold sores was like. Most of my family had gotten them starting at a young age too so it was kind of an accepted thing that it was just the way it was. Before I got the Luminance Red I’d get a cold sore outbreak around every 2-3 months depending on stress, and the summer months actually were worst for me even though I know a lot of people struggle more in the winter. Just like everyone else I’ve tried taking L-lysine and Abreva and different diets. Abreva helps some after the cold sore breaks out but nothing has had as big of an impact as I wanted or helped to prevent breakouts. What pushed me over the edge to buy the Luminance Red was the clinical data and study results that I saw. Both in terms of healing and preventing outbreaks. I actually looked at some of the clinical studies themselves and it all made sense to me. I was thinking, even if I could reduce my outbreaks to once every 6 months it would be worth more than it’s expensive price. To sum it up, its been over 11 months now since I had an outbreak, whoowhooo! When I got it in the mail, I didn’t have an outbreak at the time so I waited to use it until I got one. Looking back I wish I would have started using it immediately for prevention, it might have stopped that outbreak from coming. When the outbreak came, I was ready for action and took pictures each day to document exactly how it worked. I used it 3 times every day, every 8 hours. My cold sores usually last around 8 days but this time they were gone in 3 days. I’ll try to upload pictures to this review so you can see. Since then, I’ve been using it 2 times per week, for 60 seconds to stop them from coming back and it’s been working for 11 months. I have a specific spot on my lower lip where they usually form so that’s the area that I treat with the Luminance Red as a preventive measure. I don’t know how long the Luminance red will keep the outbreaks away but so far I’m really excited about the results. One thing to point out is watch your eyes! The light is VERY bright so I’m always careful to keep it away from my eyes. They say it’s safe but I’d rather not take a chance. I take it with me every time I travel and wish they had some kind of carrying case. I don’t want to take a chance of getting an outbreak by not using it. If you’ve got the money I would suggest getting one. It’s been SO nice not having to deal with cold sores for almost a year now. So thankful for this thing. Hope you get to see for yourself how well it works!

So great!
I get cold sores 3 times a year and they are huge! Its never one, it becomes 5! When I get one its 12 days of healing and a good 6 days I can go out! Honestly the masks have been a life saver for me. On my last outbreak, I bought this, it arrived in two days, ready to go. I already had a massive one in the middle of my bottom lip, I have been get huge ones in the middle of my bottom lip for the past few years. Before it would be one blister and that would be it. It now starts in the middle and it is the size of a pencil eraser! Its a monster! Anyway, this came, the massive on was already massive and a new one was coming as well on day four of the massive one. I used the red light twice before bed, in the morning the new one was a small tiny scab! Great! Next day big one was a scab and slowly getting smaller, 5 days later all gone. Have been using this whenever I feel one coming. Nothing for two months. But, last night felt one and it was already swollen! Did the light 3 times and in the morning it was a tiny scab and I also felt a new one coming, already a little blister. Did the light, and by the end of the day it is also a scab! A tiny scab!!! Totally skipped blister, crust, leaking, scab falling off, new scab, bleeding, creams pills, pain! This is crazy! So happy I found it! I can totally do pin size scab! That is nothing after the monsters I have had! So happy!!! Buy one asap! Save yourself the hell! 100% worth it!!! Updates! Used it on two cold sores. Never got one again. Its been over a year!!! Worth it!!!!

Buy it!
I honestly never leave reviews but if some of you are a little thrown off by the price, I gotta tell you it’s worth it. It’s a quality machine and actually works if used consistently. It takes awhile in the beginning, especially if you’re used to having consistent breakouts, but give it a couple months and they will go away and stop coming back. I’ve used this for years and it’s changed my life. Had to buy a new one because I dropped it and it broke but I use it when I feel the occasional one come on and it stops it in its tracks. If you can potentially afford this and what’s stopping you is the fact that it might not be good, it’s truly worth the investment!

It's shortens, but not a miracle.
I waited for my second outbreak before reviewing. I give this a three. I feel like it definitely shortens the out break. My first one I didn't catch it before it appeared... But dried it out, shortened the expansion time. Dried it out, and skipped ooze phase. Still scabbed. Still unsightly. Out break two, I felt the itch. That dry lip feeling no matter how much chap stick I applied. Immediately started using the light. Day one, no eruption. No visible sore. Day two tight, ever expanding blister. Used the light. Day three I thought this was a miracle product and I'd found my answer. It never burst, the blister flattened and dried out. However days 4-15 it still opened, scabbed, red, obvious sore. All in all of say it shortens outbreak phases, and maybe even minimizes the outbreak to a point. However it definitely hasn't prevented them, or healed them in a few days. My second outbreak was 2 full weeks of noticeable blister. Day 15 almost all dried and clear, just tight dry skin, slight footprint. Over all, I'd recommend using it, however I can't say 300.00 is worth the cost of admission. Still looking for my answer. I've tried diets, pills, L lysin, creams, this product, and honestly zovirex cream has been my most successful. But it's a pain to get a refill from my GP when the RX runs out. Wish all of you good luck.

What kind of sorcery created this product
First off, 4 stars instead of 5 because there is not a single mention of danger to eyes in the manual and eye protection isnt provide. This product emmits a powerful light that is most definitely harmful to the eyes. I don't write reviews but here I am. I received my package 2 days after the first tingle of a cold sore. I already had a scab that formed with small blisters just starting to bubble out. I used this light of the gods right away with low expectations. I went through 2 cycles to make sure I covered the whole effective area. When I focused the magic beam on the area with the scab I could feel a tickle. Immediately, the blisters seemed to shrink a little and15 minutes later the scab just fell off and a new one did not form. 4 hours later the blisters were gone. I can still feel that my lip isn't healed completely, but in the mirror, it looks like it is. Plain and simple this thing works. I suspect the factory that makes this product has a secret room hidden deep underneath the factory where the wizards cast their spells on these healing wands. I love science. ...and wizards

Not too sure about this products credibility
Today is November 26 2021 and I received my Luminance a few days before February 10 2021 which is when I got the email from you guy’s asking me what did I think of your product. The email read, according to your records that I received the product a few days before February 10. So asking me on February 10 what do I think of the product is kind of weird when I just received it. I would like to say that from the point that I got my Luminance I have used it religiously up to 2 times per day. I also made a log on my outbreaks from the point that I received the product to today which is November 26 Here is the log so those reading it can assess if it’s effective or not. Herpes Log 2/4/2021 Normal size 1 on upper lip Large size 1 on lower lip 2/17/2021 Small size on right nostril 5/31/2021 Medium size on right side of lower lip 11/14/2021 Small size inside left nostril 11/22/2021 Medium size one on bottom of lip & Medium size of one on bottom right side of lip That’s 5 outbreaks and the year is not even over. This is practically what I experienced before I purchased this product. For the cost of this product I was under the impression that as soon as you would feel the tingly sensation you would start zapping it and it wouldn’t grow or spread so aggressively. I can’t say that I experienced any of that. So like I mentioned when I summed up the review. Not too sure about this products credibility.
