LED Mask: Does It Actually Work?

LED masks, such as those from CELLRETURN are cool skincare devices that will remind you of the Stormtroopers from Star Wars. Also known as light therapy masks (or laser masks), LED masks are equipped with LED lights that give the promise of clearer, smoother-looking skin.

If you’re curious about these celebrity-beloved beauty devices, here’s what you need to know, including how the masks are used, their effects on the skin, and their efficacy.

Is it safe to use?

According to The Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology, LED masks like CELLRETURN are safe to use. 

While there are reports of visual effects, they are quite rare.  People who have existing eye disorders could experience irreversible retinal damage. Certain brands of LED masks got recalled in the U.S. and Australia due to their potential to cause eye damage.

What are its effects on the skin?

LED masks are equipped with a different spectrum of light wavelengths, penetrating the skin to trigger changes at the molecular level. 

A spectrum of light emits a different color that targets a plethora of skin concerns.

For instance, LED red light is designed to improve circulation and enhance collagen production,  helping reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. It also helps prevent collagen reduction that is attributed to sun damage and aging, contributing to fine lines and wrinkles

Meanwhile, blue light kills acne-causing bacteria, putting a stop to the cycle breakouts. 

Those are just two of the most common and popular LED lights used, but other masks like CELLRETURN have additional lights that increase the device’s efficacy in fighting acne and signs of aging.

Does it actually work?

LED masks’ efficacy is attributed to the lights used, and based on numerous studies, LED masks do actually work and can do wonders to your skin. 

According to a research conducted by the Dermatologic Surgery, researchers have discovered red LED light treatment from LED masks improved the appearance of eye-area wrinkles.

As for acne, Clinics in Dermatology found that red and/or blue light therapy reduced acne-caused blemishes by around 50 to 75 percent within 12 weeks of treatment.

There is also research that blue light improves skin’s hair follicles and pores. The bacteria found in pores and hair follicles are very susceptible to the blue light spectrum, killing and stopping their metabolism. This is an effective way of preventing future breakouts. 

Unlike topical treatment, LED masks not only ease inflammation on the skin, but also kills acne-causing bacteria before they start feeding on the oil glands that contribute to inflammation and redness. Red light not only reduces inflammation, but also works in conjunction with blue light to fight acne.

LED masks like CELLRETURN are a game changer. They are effective skincare devices that boost collagen production and kill the acne-causing bacteria. If you are in the market for one, give it a try. There’s already a growing skincare trend for these devices, as more and more people find them effective and safe.
