LED light therapy can have many benefits, including aiding redness, easing skin conditions like rosacea and even reducing the appearance of wrinkles by triggering a biological reaction from skin cells. To test it for ourselves, CD trialled CurrentBody Skin’s LED Light Therapy Face Mask.

The device uses low-level light therapy through two wavelengths to penetrate 4mm of skin tissue and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. FDA and TGA-certified, its safe, pain-free and timed treatments reduce the risk of overexposure.

While the mask may make you look like something from a classic Wes Craven movie, it has been precisely designed to deliver the best results you can achieve at home.

The lightweight mask is flexible and embedded with 132 LED bulbs – 66 red and 66 near-infrared wavelengths. The patented pillow technology provides complete and gapless skin coverage, allowing skin cells to absorb the maximum benefits from the lights. Red-light waves accelerate the production of collagen while calming redness and aiding an even skin tone. The near-infrared works beneath the surface boosting blood circulation and bringing oxygen and nutrients to the cells.

With a careful balance of how much power for how long, experts at CurrentBody Skin have worked out the magic method of 30 mW/cm². Knowing the power of the bulbs, they capped treatment time at ten minutes per use, to ensure results without risking damage to skin cells.  

The easy-to-use mask is as simple as cleaning your skin, applying a few drops of the Green Tea Serum and sitting back and relaxing while it works its magic. I couldn’t find a comfortable way to wear the eye protectors, so I ditched them as the light therapy is not known to damage the eyes.

Using the mask at least three times a week, the main change I noticed in my skin was that it felt softer and plumper, and had more bounce back when pressed. Some fine wrinkles around my eyes seemed less noticeable and my overall skin tone was less red and more even. Great results for minimal effort.

The results of the mask may not be as instant as a quick trip to get a Botox injection, but the one-time purchase means it is more wallet-friendly than Botox maintenance. Non-invasive, painless and sustainable results, CurrentBody Skin’s LED Light Therapy Face Mask is a must-have investment for all beauty enthusiasts.

Note: The CurrentBody Skin LED Light Therapy Face Mask has not been tested on pregnant or breastfeeding women. The risk to the foetus, neonate or pregnant women is unknown, therefore pregnant, breastfeeding and women planning on becoming pregnant should avoid using the device.
