FAQs

What is faceLITE USA LED Face Mask? 

faceLITE USA is a flexible, portable, home-use mask that uses light emitting diodes (LEDs) to bathe the skin in light.

How does faceLITE USA LED treatment work? 

faceLITE USA uses proven wavelengths of light: 633nm, known as “red light,” and 830nm, or “near infra-red” light. These wavelengths have been shown, in clinical studies, to stimulate both collagen and elastin production.  In addition, they help to improve blood flow and tissue oxygenation through a process called “photobiomodulation.”

These combined effects help skin cells absorb topical skincare products more effectively and also help reverse the effects of the aging process. Take a look at the clinically proven results.

faceLITE USA has been designed to deliver light directly to the skin, ensuring that the maximum amount of light hits its cellular targets and is not wasted.

Is the treatment painful? 

No pain should be felt while using faceLITE USA. The light penetrates the skin and stimulates the cells to work in a natural way. faceLITE USA is non-invasive. The treatment is completely pain free.  A skin sensitivity test must be taken before using as described in the User Manual.

How often do I need to use the mask?

For best results treat for 3 to 5 days a week for a minimum of 4 weeks.

How do I wear my new faceLITE USA?

faceLITE USA comes with an adjustable strap that allows you to comfortably wear the mask. To fit, thread the straps through the inlet holes on either side of the mask. Loop the straps around your head and secure firmly. Adjust if necessary.

Is there anyone who can’t use faceLITE USA? 

DO NOT use any faceLITE USA devices if you are taking any medication that can cause photosensitivity, have a photosensitive disorder, or are pregnant or breast feeding. Photosensitivity (sensitization to light) is a common side effect of various medications and some herbal remedies.

Since the device maintains a comfortable temperature, most people are suitable.

Here is a list of contraindications that should be referred to by anyone who is thinking of having a faceLITE treatment.

If you are unsure, please speak with your healthcare provider before using any faceLITE USA device.
