Your tips for the best results

  • 1. Consistency is key

    It's all about rest. Taking your time.

    Do you want to see real results? Make it a regular routine. LED therapy works at a cellular level, and that requires repetition.

    • Use the mask 3 to 4 times a week
    • 15 minutes per session
    • Ideal during meditation, a podcast, or a reading moment


    Consistency is key. This way, you give your skin the rest and energy it needs.

  • 2. Give your skin a rest, don't over-treat it

    • More is not always better

    You don't have to 'force' your skin to see results.

    • Do not use aggressive acids

    Do not use aggressive acids or retinol directly before the treatment.

    • Balanced skin

    This way your skin stays balanced and you give it the space to glow.

  • 3. LED is more than anti-aging – harness all the benefits

    LED light is known for reducing fine lines, but did you know that its benefits are much broader?

    • Helps soothe red and sensitive skin
    • Extends the effect of treatments such as microneedling or Botox
    • Supports impure skin and inflammation


    So, LED therapy is not only for anti-aging but a valuable addition to any skin routine.

  • 4. Clean skin is the start

    Use it on clean skin and combine smartly with skincare. LED light works best when your skin is well prepared.

    • Clean the mask well after use (use Alcohol ketonatus 70%)
    • Cleanse your face thoroughly
    • Optionally use a hydrating serum afterward or finish with a nourishing cream

    This ensures maximum absorption and recovery.

  • 5. Treat yourself to that moment of peace: your self-care time

    The best thing about LED therapy? The moment you put yourself first.

    • Put your phone on silent.
    • Take a deep breath.
    • Enjoy 15 minutes of pure me-time.

    Your skin (and your mind) will thank you!

Frequently Asked Questions

Discover the answers to the most frequently asked questions about LED skin treatment.

How do I gradually build up?

We recommend the following if you are using LED therapy for the first time: For the first week, use it for a maximum of 3 days for 10 minutes on the lowest setting. In the second week, use it every 2 days for 10 minutes on the lowest setting. In the third week, use it every 2 days for 10 minutes on the medium setting. If your skin shows no irritation, you can gradually increase the intensity. If irritation occurs, reduce the frequency and gradually build it up again so your skin can get used to the LED therapy.

The device won't turn on?

How long does it take before I see results?

With consistent use, you can expect visible improvement within four weeks. Many customers notice the first changes after just two weeks: calmer skin and a healthier glow. It's not about quick transformations, but about gradual improvement.

What if I skip a week?

Skipping a week doesn't mean you lose all your results. The positive effects gradually diminish with longer breaks, but your skin doesn't revert to zero. LED therapy works best as a regular part of your weekly routine.

How often should I use the LED mask?

We recommend using it 3 to a maximum of 5 times per week. Before use, please read the complete instructions thoroughly. Use the build-up schedule for our best practices.
