Is it safe to use Red LED Light therapy during pregnancy?

May 27, 2020
Asked By:Aleg1028 in New York, New York

I would like to know if it’s safe to use a red led device during pregnancy. I have the lightstim device for wrinkles and I would use it for my face only but I’m 6weeks pregnant and I don’t want to have any complications with my baby. My obgyn dr said that it has not been tested so he doesn’t know. I want to use it.
