FAQ

• What is Silk’n LED Face Mask 100?

  Silk’n LED Face Mask 100 is a skin improving beauty tool. It can be used to tackle a range of skin concerns, including signs of aging, blemish, and dry skin.

• Which skin problems are tackled by the different LED colors?

  Red light, 620nm: Helps to promote and improve blood circulation, stimulates the production of collagen, and tightens the skin.
  
  Blue light, 460nm: Helps to improve blemish-prone skin and reduces oil secretion.
  
  Infrared light, 850nm: helps to increase the moisture level of the skin and improves skin roughness.
  
  Mixed light, 460-850nm: helps to improve skin imperfections and has anti-inflammatory benefits.

• What is the difference between Silk'n LED Face Mask 100 and other LED face masks on the market?

  As opposed to masks that are made of hard, non-flexible material, Silk'n LED Face Mask 100 is made of natural silicone material. This means that the mask is flexible, fits your skin perfectly, and is comfortable to wear. Moreover, because the LED lights of the Silk'n LED Face mask are better formed to your skin, they can penetrate more deeply and evenly, leading to improved results.
  
  Furthermore, Silk'n LED Face Mask 100 allows to treat your skin with 4 different LED colors; each color tackles a different skin concern.

• How does the Silk'n LED Face Mask 100 work?

  The LED light (red, blue, infrared, or mixed) is absorbed by the deeper layers of the skin. This triggers cellular activity, which helps to renew skin cells and repair aging tissue. After each treatment, the skin looks more beautiful and radiant than before.

• Should I apply a serum or cream before the treatment?

  Some skincare products contain ingredients that can be photosensitive or reactive when exposed to LED light. Therefore, we advise performing the session on clean, dry skin, free from any makeup, dirt, serum or cream. Apply a serum or cream after your session to hydrate the skin. However, if you choose to use one beforehand, ensure it is compatible with LED light and fully absorbed before starting your session.
