Pros: It uses clinically proven wavelengths to provide the same results as an in-clinic treatment, and uses a combination of red and blue light to target a range of skincare concerns such as laxity, inflammation, acne, ageing and hyperpigmentation. It stimulates collagen to firm and plump the skin, boosts luminosity through improved circulation, soothes damaged skin and helps skin absorb products more effectively. It has been clinically proven to reduce wrinkle depth by 36% in four weeks, increase collagen in two weeks – and 98% of subjects reported firmer skin in 12 weeks. Made from a flexible silicone material it is also a first in that it comfortably wraps around your face so the skin can receive as much light as possible for maximum results. ICYMI, the best LED face masks are the result of skin LED light therapy becoming mainstream (they were once reserved for salons and salons only). They use red and near infrared LEDs (Light-Emitting Diodes) to target multiple skincare concerns or skin conditions at once. Think: acne, pigmentation and rosacea. And they're adored by editors, celebs and dermatologists the world-over as a result. Why GLAMOUR loves it: Developed by Dr. Maryam Zamani, one of London’s leading oculoplastic surgeons and aesthetic doctors, the new Lightmax Supercharged LED mask 2.0 is a first-of-its-kind LED face mask - and one-up from the Golden Facial Treatment Device that has proven so popular with GLAMOUR readers for so long. Why GLAMOUR loves it: One for the LED pros, the Dermalux Flex might be a little more expensive, but it is the world’s most powerful in-clinic LED light therapy treatment available for at-home use, so it's to be expected. It uses 360 LED bulbs to deliver treatments, and is loved by medical professionals worldwide.
They noted how comfortable they were to wear, the brightness of the LED lights and whether they were happy with the length of the treatment. Light therapy has been around for decades. Originally developed to help heal and repair skin tissue, it’s since earned its rightful place in the dermatologist's office, solving skincare issues from breakouts to redness. But how does it work? LED light therapy has been around for more than 30 years and is suitable for use on all skin types and tones. We’ve already answered all of your “ what is light therapy?” questions in some serious depth, so head over there for a real deep dive. According to Dr Radmila Lukian, in short, light therapy refers to the process of exposing skin to different wavelengths of light – including red, blue light and yellow – which “stimulate collagen production and purify the skin”. The light emitted by your LED face mask is absorbed by your skin, and as the light wavelength increases, so does the depth of penetration.

DO NOT USE if you suffer from systemic Lupus Erythematosus, photosensitive eczema or albinism as usage may cause an adverse skin reaction The LED used in at-home devices is much weaker than what it would be in-salon, and actually, the devices often undergo much more rigorous testing because they need to be safe enough to use without the presence of a professional. Amber: Helps those with sensitive skin struggling with redness, flushing and rosacea as it works to increase cellular growth, which promotes skin healing and soothes inflammation. However, it's not found in many at-home options.
Blue: Helps manage inflammation and destroys the species of bacteria on the skin that's most prevalent in acne. It also helps reduce oil production. Why GLAMOUR loves it: Brought to you by Lily Earle, this LED face mask actually uses the same near-infrared LED technology studied by NASA for its unique healing effects. Cons: Some reviewers reported that they'd have liked a second strap around the bottom of the mask to hold it closer to their chin. Pros: This award-winning LED mask works by combining anti-ageing red and near infra-red light therapy to penetrate deep into the skin’s lower layers, delivering both instant and long term results – 95% of users reported plumper, smoother skin immediately. Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, photosensitive eczema or albinism - usage may cause an adverse skin reaction.Why GLAMOUR loves it: Created by one of London's best-loved Oculoplastic Surgeon and Facial Aesthetics Doctors, Dr. Maryam Zamani, it has five different coloured light settings to target almost all skincare woes. From reducing inflammation to boosting lymphatic flow. It's as good as everything else in her skincare range (where all products fuse intelligent, largely natural ingredients). Treatment time: Either opt for a 5-10 minutes session on the mask daily or use 3 times weekly for a full 20 minutes session. Red: Supports the production of collagen, which helps provide support and structure to the skin. Red light is therefore used to help reverse some of the signs of ageing, and some studies suggest that it may be useful for certain types of hair loss. Why GLAMOUR loves it: The Lyma Laser is the world’s most powerful at-home beauty device, and according to the brand, 100x more powerful (!) than any other LED device on the market. It works by slowing down both intrinsic and extrinsic ageing: intrinsically, directing skin cells to recharge, regenerate and repair rather than die off, and extrinsically, instructing skin cells to produce more proteins to fight free radicals. Less free radicals means more collagen and elastin = better looking skin. Treatment time: Use 2-3 times per week, starting with 10 minutes of LED mask time and slowing building up to 20 minutes.
Pros: It's made from medical-grade silicone to reduce risk of irritation on the skin, and comes with a travel pouch, protective eyewear and universal USB charger – three accessories which came in very handy. According to research carried out on 119 participants over 12 weeks, 95% of participants said skin tone, texture, firmness and elasticity improved, 91% of participants saw brighter skin tone, 82% of participants saw improved skin smoothness and 81% of participants saw improvements in periorbital wrinkles (around the eyes).Why GLAMOUR loves it: This LED face mask is a little different to the others in this edit; a world first in light therapy. It combines the capabilities of LED light therapy we've been waxing lyrical about with the holistic properties of gemstones. Rose Quartz, in this case, which have been placed at particular points around the face mask so that you can reap the benefits of acupressure during your treatment. As for the light therapy? This mask is fitted with 180 red lights to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, acne, redness and fine lines. Pros: There are seven targeted treatments for anti-ageing, rosacea, eczema, acne, acne scars and joints, and it's suitable for all ages and skin types. It's flexible and easy to use, and it helps with joint pain as well as external skincare concerns. Oh, and you won't be short of accessories. It comes with a Dermalux Flex MD base unit, Dermalux Flex MD controller, flexible LED canopy, power supply (with 1.5m lead), goggles, treatment pillow and carry bag. Pros: It's really sleek (we'd expect nothing less – it's the exact same mask which Dr. Gross uses at his New York clinic) and easy to use. It actually turns off after said three minutes, so you won't overuse it or damage your skin. It's also cordless – bonus. As for battery life? The mask will need to be re-charged right around the 10th treatment. verifyErrors }}{{ message }}{{ /verifyErrors }}{{
To ensure your safety, never buy an LED face mask that hasn’t been FDA improved, and Dr. Lukian suggested that “if you have sensitive skin or conditions like rosacea, it's best to consult with a dermatologist before using one.” Green: A saviour for those struggling with age spots or hyperpigmentation, this light helps brighten the skin and can be used to treat broken capillaries and dark under-eye circles. Pros: It's painless and poses no infection risk. It's suitable for all skin types. It offers short-term glow, increases collagen production, works to prevent wrinkles and improves the appearance of sun-damaged skin, scaring, rosacea, pigmentation and sagging. All. In. One. What's more, it's totally damage-free, even around the eye area. In fact, there's no need for goggles at all. The light energy is completely cold and completely painless.Cons: We found we had to attach the strap to the head's crown with a claw clip to walk around mid-treatment to keep the mask in place. However, this might not be the same for everyone. Each different light type stimulates a different response – which means every colour boasts different skincare benefits – but generally speaking, “the treatment can help improve skin texture, reduce blemishes and hyperpigmentation, and even out skin tone."
