TherabodyLED face masks have gone from dermatologist-only devices to one of the most viral beauty tools on the internet. Every time I open TikTok, someone is wearing a glowing robot helmet claiming it erased their pores, tightened their jawline, and probably filed their taxes while it was at it. Even celebs swear by them — and the range is wild. Some masks look like chic space-age sunglasses, others look like horror-movie props, and the price tags swing anywhere from $99 to “if this doesn’t give me a new face, I want a refund.”
What Do LED Masks *Do*?
LED (light-emitting diode) therapy itself isn’t a gimmick — dermatologists have used it for years. Red light is known for stimulating collagen and reducing inflammation, blue light targets acne-causing bacteria, and newer tools even incorporate near-infrared for deeper skin benefits.
But whether an at-home mask actually works depends on various factors:
- wavelength strength,
- distance from skin,
- consistency of use,
- and how well the brand designed the device.
