This £465 LED Mask Is Considered the Gold Standard—After Trying It for a Month, I Have Thoughts
When it comes to beauty tools, the Dr Dennis Gross LED Mask is highly regarded as one of the best. If you're searching for an LED mask to stimulate collagen and help battle breakouts, this is a great choice. That being said, it also comes with a pretty high price tag. Setting you back a cool £465, this beauty tool certainly doesn't come cheap.
Here at Who What Wear UK, we make it our mission to put the most popular tools to the test to see if they are really worth your investment. So, we've broken down what you need to know about LED light therapy and even tried everything from the sell-out Beauty Pie LED Mask to the newer Shark Cyroglow LED Mask and more.
This month, I've been putting the Dr Dennis Gross LED mask through its paces in order to give you my honest thoughts. I have lots of things to share. Keep on scrolling to find out more...
Dr Dennis Gross LED Mask Review
So, what does this LED mask do? The clever device features a combination of 62 LED lights in blue mode and 100 LED lights in red mode to help tackle a range of skincare concerns. There are three treatment modes available, one using red light, one using blue light and one using a combination of both.
Red light benefits:
- Stimulate collagen production
- Firm the skin and smooth fine lines
- Even skin tone
Blue light benefits:
- Destroy acne-causing bacteria
- Help clear breakouts
How Often Do You Need to Use the Dr Dennis Gross LED Mask?
The thing with LED masks is that they have to be used consistently over a long period of time in order to see results. The brand recommends using this mask for three minutes every single day, and that's exactly what I've been doing for the past few weeks. However, if you're new to LED light therapy, you could always start with three times a week and build up from there.
My Dr Dennis Gross LED Mask Review
So, how did I find this tool? I'm going to be honest, I was sceptical when I got my hands on the device. I like a quick and easy skincare routine, so the idea of adding another step seemed like a faff, and I wasn't sure if I would see any difference. Oh, how I was wrong.
First of all, this is by far the easiest beauty tool I have ever used. All you have to do is place it onto your face, adjust the strap at the back and press the button on the front of the device to turn it on. Press it once for the red light mode, twice for the blue light mode and three times for a combination of the two. I've been using a combination of red and blue light as I was keen to even out my skin tone and also battle some breakouts on my chin.
It's hands-free so I can do bits around the house while I'm wearing it, and the fact that you only have to wear it for three minutes is an absolute dream (most LED masks require a longer treatment time).
Before and After Using the Dr Dennis Gross LED Mask
While I've only been using the device for a few weeks, I've already noticed a difference in my skin. The breakout on my chin is significantly smaller, and overall, I feel like my complexion looks a lot brighter and more even.
This device has honestly been so easy to fit into my nightly routine, it hasn't irritated my sensitive skin and the fact that I'm already noticing a difference is a huge plus. Yes, it's a little bit bulky (some LED devices are made from flexible silicone, meaning that they fit a little closer to the face), and yes, I look a little bit like a robot when I wear it, but it's totally worth it.
It is definitely on the expensive side, but if you compare the price of the mask to an in-salon LED treatment, you really are getting your cost per wear with this. It's an investment, but one that your skin will thank you for in the long run.
