"I created the MMSphere LED to be the most advanced home photobiomodulation system for skin health and overall wellness. After years of using lasers and LEDs to treat thousands of diverse patients with sun damage, aging, acne, rosacea, skin cancer, and more, I knew exactly what was missing. The MMSphere was designed to be effective, safe, scientifically validated, and a genuine pleasure to use. It is so easy that staying consistent feels effortless.

Unlike any other device, the MMSphere delivers a comprehensive, hands-free treatment that covers large areas all at once. We’re honored that it’s been chosen by celebrities, dermatologists, plastic surgeons, and beauty editors as the leading at-home LED system.
