there are a lot of red light masks out there but imo the two main options are the CurrentBody Series 2 and Omnilux Contour: - both are flexible (not rigid) so they adapt to your face shape more easily - both are tested to ensure that precise LED wavelengths are used - both require consistent use for 6+ weeks, 3-5 times per week the main difference is that the CurrentBody Series 2 uses deep near-infrared (1072nm) light in addition to red (633nm) and near-infrared (830nm). the Omnilux only uses the latter two wavelengths. they claim this helps penetrate deeper into the skin vs. red and near-infrared alone. otherwise, very similar products at similar price points. both have a matching neck/decolletage attachment available to help treat “tech neck” and other signs of aging in those areas. your main alternative to masks like this is a larger panel like the Dermalux Flex MD which is more precise and offers blue, red, and near-infrared treatment options. roughly 3x the price though and much bulkier.

red light masks stimulate collagen production and ATP production in cells, reduce inflammation, and enhance circulation. when used consistently over 6-8+ weeks they can help reduce wrinkles, redness, skin texture, and even skin tone. they can also help with acne, though blue light therapy is more beneficial in that regard.
