Who should buy which
Entry-tier buyers committing to red light therapy who want Joovv's modular upgrade path and FDA Class II registration, planning to expand to Duo / Max / Quad / Elite over time.
You want maximum spec-per-dollar (Mito Red MitoPRO 1500 at $999 wins on irradiance per dollar), or you want full-body coverage immediately in a single session (jump straight to Duo, Max, Quad, or Elite).
Buyers focused on face-specific photobiomodulation — collagen, fine lines, skin inflammation — who want the longest-running brand pedigree in the category at the value-tier price point ($249-399).
You want full-body PBM (Joovv Elite, Mito Red Pro 1500), targeted recovery for joints (NovaaLab Light Pad), or mask-format coverage (Quasar MD 3D Mask or CurrentBody LED Mask cover more of the face simultaneously).
