How safe are at home LED masks? If they are safe to use, what brand is the best to ensure I'm being as safe as possible?

December 8, 2016
Asked By:staciamp in Rochester, MN

I am looking into buying an at home LED treatment mask. I have heard of these "at-home" masks you can buy and leave on for 20 minutes with Blue, Green and Red LED lights. I really enjoyed the results I had from my first treatment with a doctor and I would like to do them more regularly. I have recently been scaring really badly with acne and am not sure if it is due to changing skin as I get older. (I am only 22)
