Best Vibrating: Therabody TheraFace Mask
Why We Love It: Equipped with vibration therapy, the Therabody LED device soothes tension in the face—and it provides more reasons to exhale, with its ability to target multiple common skin concerns at once. With red and blue light settings, the device firms, smooths, and boosts radiance in the skin. “This mask uses vibration therapy to boost blood circulation and release tension around the face,” Engelman says. “I like that you are able to target specific concerns with various settings including red light, blue light, and red and infrared light.” Plus, it features removable shields for ample eye protection.
Best Spot Treatment: Solawave Radiant Renewal Skincare Wand
Why We Love It: A Vogue editor favorite, Solawave’s four-in-one device handily smooths fine lines and wrinkles, brightens dark circles, and boosts serum absorption in just a few minutes with consistent use. All the while, it delivers a depuffing face massage, which boosts circulation. “This handheld, travel-friendly device is a fantastic tool that combines red light therapy, galvanic current, massage, and warmth to address a range of skin concerns,” Engelman says. “The galvanic current works to tone and firm the face while reducing puffiness for a brighter and smoother complexion. Plus, the vibration massages serums into the skin barrier to enhance absorption.”
Best for Neck: Currentbody Skin LED Neck and Dec Perfector
Why We Love It: Currentbody’s lightweight device wraps comfortably around the neck and the decolletage, where its red and near-infrared lights stimulate collagen production and give the skin a smoother, more youthful appearance. “So many of my patients are focused on their face, but I always remind them we can’t ignore our neck and chest,” board-certified dermatologist Dr. Nicole Ruth says. “CurrentBody’s neck and chest mask is lightweight and comfortable. You can use the mask while sitting in bed reading or catching up on emails.” Engelman adds: “This is a targeted device for the neck and chest area, which is often neglected from sun protection, causing accelerated aging. It uses red light at 633 nanometers and infrared light at 830 nanometers to stimulate cell renewal for firmer and tighter skin.”
Best for a Glow: Higherdose Red Light Therapeutic Face Mask
Why We Love It: Higherdose’s tool, which emits glow-boosting lights, makes it easy to wellness stack: You can wear it while you go about your everyday activities, like folding laundry or washing dishes. “This is a comfortable, hands-free device you can use for 10 minutes three to five times a week to see impressive results,” Engelman says. “It uses red light and infrared light to synergistically minimize signs of aging by promoting cellular renewal and stimulating collagen production.”
Best for Blemishes: Omnilux Blemish Eraser
Why We Love It: For stubborn pimples, look no further than the Omnilux Blemish Eraser. The disc-shaped version of the aforementioned Contour Face, this device excels at hyper-targeted treatments that clear up the complexion in a flash. Using two wavelengths of light—one red and one blue—the mini device comes with a hydrocolloid patch. Infused with salicylic acid and green tea to decongest the pores and sweep impurities from the surface of the skin, the patch sticks to the device, which is then applied to the face. Is this the pimple patch of the future? Perhaps, just perhaps.
