"There is a machine that acts bacteriostatic using infrared radiation, i.e. higher frequency of visible light (i.e. red). So if the application emits the red could help. But because acne is multifactorial disease you can not say that only treats the use of light, "explains dermatologist Dr Katerina Lambrinopoulou, Ph.D. University of Athens.

The application costs 1.59 euros, "works" on the facial skin while the user speaks.

As said dermatologist Greg Pearson, according to the "New York Times", the application will be put into clinical trials to demonstrate the degree of effectiveness, but said "fascinated by the prospect that users can potentially cure acne while talking on the phone.
