Last year felt a lot like an episode of The Twilight Zone. It felt like a particularly bizarre and sadistic episode that involved DIY toilet paper and black market bleach. But, it also provided a rare glimpse into the real lives of, well, everyone. A-list celebrities’ Instagram feeds became a voyeuristic buffet of sweat pants, gray roots, and unkempt beards. Contrarily, celebrities also doubled down on their anti-aging skincare routines by wearing creepy glowing masks that can only be described as equal parts Jason Voorhees, Kabuki, Jack-O-lantern, Eyes Wide Shut, and Lucha libre. Huh? Hear us out.

Originally developed by Nasa for plant growth experiments, light emitting diodes (LEDs) have since been found to have healing, rejuvenating and stimulating properties for skin. Unlike sunlight, the UVA and UVB rays from which can damage and age the skin, LED therapy works in a similar way to a topical facial treatment, such as a chemical peel, in which the skin s natural defences are activated, triggering the renewal process, production of collagen and cell stimulation.
The upside of LED therapy, compared with traditional facial treatments, is that it is suitable for all skin types as it will not cause inflammation or burn the skin. The downside is that LED therapy does not offer instant results. It takes regular sessions to see results, but with continued use these results will be more long-term.
