Do They Really Work? At-Home LED Masks
You may have seen the rising attention that at-home LED masks are gaining and wonder if they really work. The answer is yes! At Med 44 Arcadia, we are firm believers in LED masks for several different reasons to help patients achieve the most out of their at-home skincare.
What is LED?
LED stands for Light Emitting Diode, a technology that emits specific wavelengths of light to penetrate the skin at various depths. There are different colors of LED light—such as red, blue, and green—that all target specific skin concerns.
How Does It Treat the Skin?
LED light treats the skin by reducing inflammation, stimulating the production of collagen, and improving skin tone. The LED light is being absorbed into the skin to help target various skin issues that are targeted through different lights.
Red Light (633nm): reduces inflammation, pigmentation, and redness and helps prompt cellular repair and circulation for a more vibrant complexion.
Near-infrared Light (830nm): targets deeper fibroblast cells, stimulating new collagen and elastin production, resulting in plumper, firmer, more youthful looking skin.
Near-infrared Light (1072nm): penetrates deeper into men's ~25% thicker skin, triggering a more robust cellular response for anti-aging and skin rejuvenation.
Blue Light (415nm): neutralizes acne-causing bacteria that causes the redness and inflammation of acne.
How to Select a High-Quality At-Home Mask
Not all masks are created equal! It's very important to purchase a high-quality at-home mask to really get the most out of your treatment. At Med 44 Arcadia we carry the best high-quality brand, Omnilux. We carry the LED mask for the neck and décolleté that reduces the appearance of unwanted pigment, redness, and fine lines and wrinkles. The Omnilux Clear mask which reduces active acne and blemishes, redness and inflammation, and acne scarring.

Using high quality at-home LED masks is crucial when wanting to start LED therapy to ensure you're going to get the results you are seeking.
How Masks Help You Heal Faster After In-Office Treatments
At-home LED masks can also be a fantastic addition to your post-treatment recovery routine. After in-office procedures like chemical peels or laser treatments, your skin may experience redness and irritation and LED lights can help tremendously in various ways.
Accelerate Healing: The light stimulates cellular repair, reducing downtime and speeding up the healing process.
Soothe Inflammation: LED therapy can calm redness and inflammation, helping your skin recover more comfortably.
Enhance Results: By promoting collagen production and skin rejuvenation, LED masks can enhance the effects of your in-office treatments, leading to improved overall results.
