Do they actually produce results? And are LED masks safe?<\/h3>\n
The claims can sound too good to be true. So, does LED actually work? Especially in mask form? The good news is, yes, LED light masks have been scientifically proven to improve the skin in a number of ways<\/a>. But the efficacy is all about the concentration of light and not all masks have enough light or the correct wavelengths to be effective. For further clarity, we spoke to skin expert and DermapenWorld treatment consultant Renata Battestin on what it takes to see a therapeutic benefit from an LED light mask.<\/p>\n \u201cFor optimal therapeutic results, both light intensity and wavelength precision are essential,\u201d said Battestin.<\/p>\n \u201cWe recommend a 633nm wavelength for therapeutic healing benefits, and deeper penetrating 830nm and 1070nm wavelengths for full anti-ageing benefits,\u201d she said. \u201cWhen these are used together, these wavelengths create a synergising rejuvenation effect.\u201d<\/p>\n The concentration of this light is especially critical to delivering results. Even if the wavelength is right, if the mask is not bright enough, it won\u2019t work effectively. For red light the optimal irradiance range is 25-120 milliwatts\/CM2; for blue its 3-30 milliwatts\/CM2 and for yellow its 40-150 milliwatts\/CM2.<\/p>\n The scientific consensus is that LED masks are safe to use. In fact, there are a number that are TGA-approved in Australia.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The good news is that even just one session with a mask that has the right wavelength and irradiance levels can improve the skin.<\/p>\n \u201cA single 10-minute session leaves your skin feeling plumper, more hydrated and refreshed, with visibly improved dark spots and pigmentation,\u201d said Battestin. \u201cThese results improve with repeated use, with many reporting noticeable results after one month.\u201d<\/p>\n After four weeks of three 10-minute sessions per week Dermapenworld\u2019s studies showed:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n When choosing an LED mask, finding one with therapeutic wavelengths and irradiance levels will give you the best chance of seeing results.<\/p>\n An easy way to tell which ones will have actual skin benefits\u00a0 \u2013 if you don’t have time to check the milliwatts per square centimetre \u2013 is to just check which masks have TGA- or FDA-approved therapeutic claims. Below you’ll find a list.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n FDA and TGA approved<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n FDA approved<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n FDA approved<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n TGA approved<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n TGA registered<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n FDA approved<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n TGA and FDA approved<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n TGA approved<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n TGA approved<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n\nHow long and how often do you need to use an LED mask to get the benefits?<\/h3>\n
