My Review of the Lifewave Carnosine Patch
Organs the Lifewave Carnosine Patch Can Support | not all are pictured
You’re probably already familiar with Lifewave’s best selling patch, the X39, but did you know that you’re missing out on some of the other AHH-MAZING Lifewave phototherapy patches? You may have browsed the Lifewave website wondering what these other patches do, and in doing so, this probably brought up further confusion and overwhelm because their website is pretty vague with their product descriptions. We can thank the FDA for that.
You may also wonder why you would need any other patch if the X39 patch is already capable of doing so many miraculous things. I wondered this too, but was still very curious about the other patches after experiencing so many amazing benefits from the X39 patch. I wanted to see what else I could improve! So I did my research, and that sparked my further interest in the patches. It was my mission to try all the Lifewave patches when my budget allowed it!
Although the carnosine patch was not initially a priority for me to try, the Aeon and Glutathione patch were. And knowing that Lifewave has a Y-Age System Kit which consists of the Aeon, Glutathione, and Carnosine patches, that was the most cost effective way for me to purchase them.
So I purchased the Y-Age kit. And boy, was I surprised! The Carnosine patch ended up being my 2ND FAVORITE Lifewave patch!
So what is carnosine exactly?
Carnosine is a naturally occurring dipeptide found in the human body which is made of the two amino acids, alanine and histidine. High concentrations of carnosine are commonly found in the muscle and brain, but it is present in other organs as well. It acts as a powerful antioxidant, protects against cellular damage, and helps prevent the formation of harmful molecules linked to aging and diseases. Carnosine also supports muscle function by buffering lactic acid during exercise, improving performance and reducing fatigue. It may even have protective effects on the brain and skin, helping to slow down aging and reduce wrinkles.
How does the Lifewave carnosine patch work?
In case you’re new to this technology, there is no actual carnosine in this phototherapy patch. Instead, the carnosine patch instructs your body to make it’s OWN carnosine with the help of infrared light from your body! Your body’s light shines on to the patch (which has a very specific light code or pattern on it), and that light code reflects instructions back into your body to make carnosine. Pretty neat, huh?

My experience with the Lifewave carnosine patch
I initially started using the carnosine patch to support my eye health, as I wanted to see if it could help improve vision in my right eye. My right eye has always been my problem eye as a result of dry eye issues I experienced from living in mold unknowingly for many years.
Although my vision didn’t get any better after a couple of days of wearing the carnosine patch (which I wasn’t expecting to begin with because it was way too soon), I had an unrelated positive benefit that took me off guard! On approximately day 3 of wearing the carnosine patch, I gained incredible mental clarity. It was like a light switch turned on in my brain and so much of my brain fog diminished.
But let me back it up a bit. On day 2 of wearing the carnosine patch, I woke up with a horrible migraine which I believe was caused by a combination of the carnosine patch and a hormonal shift, as my period was about to start. I felt pretty sick, to be honest, and this wasn’t how I typically feel right before my period so I am 99.99% sure the carnosine patch had something to do with it. Plus, my migraine pain was on the right side of my head, and I had been placing the carnosine patch on my right temple. To further back up my theory that the carnosine patch caused my migraine, I learned that carnosine “may” actually help detox aluminum from the brain, so it seemed to me I had some lymph stagnation going on from the aluminum detox. Although I absolutely despise migraines, this excited me because I’m all about improving my brain health!
To combat my migraine, I immediately put an X39 patch on the back of my neck and did a lymphatic massage, specifically focusing on my scalp to drain the stagnant lymph. Within 1 to 2 hours, my migraine was totally gone, and I couldn’t believe it! I had been wondering if the X39 patch would help with migraines and it didn’t disappoint! Even though the migraine was gone, I still didn’t feel great likely because I was still detoxing. However, the very next day I felt so much better and that’s actually when I gained so much mental clarity! Even weeks later, I still feel like my brain got an enormous upgrade after wearing the carnosine patch just 3 times a week.
Where can the carnosine patch be placed?
When you purchase the carnosine patches, you’ll receive an instruction booklet that shows the acupressure points Lifewave recommends, which includes the middle of the chest, behind the neck, the lower portion of the back, and the right hand. While these are the recommended carnosine patch placements, this patch (and any of the other Lifewave patches) can actually be placed anywhere on the body. So with that said, if you’re wanting to work on your brain health, you may want to place the carnosine patch on your third eye area or one of your temples.
While the X39 patch will always be my favorite, the carnosine patch is hands down my 2nd favorite Lifewave patch. It’s truly incredible how much my brain fog has diminished since wearing the carnosine patch, and my memory is so much better too! I am excited to see if continual use of the carnosine patch helps with my eye health as well!

This is not medical advice, and my experience with the patches will likely not be the same as yours. Most people do not experience benefits from the patches as quickly as me, but it does still happen. Just because you haven’t noticed any big changes with the patches after using them for a few days or weeks, doesn’t mean they aren’t working. You need to be patient and give them time to work. Additionally, the healthier you are, the faster the patches may work. You will also get the most benefit from the patches, the healthier you are.
I am a Lifewave Brand partner, but only chose to start endorsing Lifewave after I experienced the amazing benefits from the X39 patch. I am extremely passionate about Lifewave and their phototherapy patches, and would never promote a product I didn’t believe in.
