Undisclosed values are never estimated; “Not disclosed” is itself information for comparison.
LED evidence by wavelength
LED wavelengths not published — red/NIR evidence cannot be applied
No band inherits another band’s evidence. The technology grade refers to the anti-ageing claim (red/NIR); blue is assessed separately for acne only.
Evidence
LED (photobiomodulation) B — Several randomised controlled trials (e.g. 136 people over 15 weeks with ultrasound-measured collagen density) point the same way. Devices and doses vary, and whether home masks deliver the same dose is a separate question.
Product grade (studies of this model only): A ≥2 independent RCTs (30+ each) · B one RCT or two controlled studies · C uncontrolled, small or maker-linked. Without them the technology grade is shown, except for multi-function devices and LED without published wavelengths. Without a published dose, study results cannot be assumed to apply to this product.

A study tested this exact model, so device output equals the study condition. Session time and frequency still have to match the protocol. Multi-function device studies are never reused as evidence for a single technology.

Check whether the product delivers the dose (J/cm²) used in trials; most products do not publish irradiance.
Outcome susceptibility to placebo / natural variation
High
This does not mean the product has no effect. It shows how easily the reported result could be influenced by expectation, time, swelling, hydration or measurement conditions.
No study compared against a control, so reported change cannot be separated from the factors below.
Natural skin variation · Hydration · Swelling · Lighting · Camera angle · Make-up · Weight change · Sleep · Menstrual cycle · Skincare used alongside · Massage effect
Before / after reliability
Unknown
A: controlled conditions + objective device measurement + blinded assessment · B: mostly controlled · C: partly · D: large lighting/angle differences · F: marketing image. Only photos checked for lighting, camera, angle, expression and distance are graded; photos alone never confirm an effect.

Pricing
Retail priceNot disclosed
Estimated markupNot shown — no BOM or factory-cost basis
“Estimated markup” is used only with a real BOM or factory-cost basis. This product has none, so no number is invented. The price premium above is a ratio of real retail prices.
What is inside typical build · estimated
- LED chips (red / near-infrared, tens to hundreds)
- Flexible PCB or silicone body holding the LEDs
- Driver IC and timer MCU
- Li-ion battery or wired controller
- Plastic/silicone housing, eye shielding
- USB charging cable
The usual build of devices using this technology — not a teardown of this product. The parts total (BOM) is not computed without a basis.

Gap to cheapest in categoryUnknown
Not a cost breakdown. Undisclosed items stay “Unknown”.
Cheaper products in the same technology category
No cheaper product in this technology category yet.
Comparable technology category; dose similarity is mostly unknown. Output, wavelength and extras may differ. Equal grades mean neither side has stronger evidence.

BUYING GUIDE
What to check before buying
LED masks
Evidence is tied to specific wavelengths and doses. Look at the numbers before the number of colours.
Wavelength (nm)Only red/NIR (ageing) and blue (acne) have separate evidence.
Irradiance (mW/cm²)Without it, the product cannot be compared with trial conditions.
Fluence (J/cm²)Output × time; trial results are reported by dose.
Session time and frequencyTotal hours over 12 weeks is the real burden.
FitDistance from the skin reduces the light that arrives.
Eye safetyCheck the manual’s warnings and eye protection.
Studies of this modelTechnology evidence is not product evidence.
Return policyCheck whether opened units can be returned, and for how long.
