45 year-old woman, living in the desert southwest. I have more wrinkles than I’d like to see (don’t we all) and my complexion is relatively normal. Not a lot of acne or breakouts. Just wrinkles in the forehead and around the eyes, and my facial skin isn’t as healthy or glowy as I’d like. I had a cheap LED mask that I bought off an online retailer a couple of years ago that I had used but didn’t feel like it did much. So I was definitely interested in seeing what the TheraFace Mask might be able to do for me.
The TheraFace Mask uses LED lights to treat wrinkles and treat moderate to mild acne. It also has a vibration therapy mode. The manual doesn’t say what the vibration mode does for your skin, but I wholeheartedly enjoyed it. I’m assuming it helps the skin relax.
The TherFace Mask is extremely easy to use. It is wireless, so you don’t have to mess with cables following you around. It can be worn while you are moving around the house and definitely be used to freak out your kids when you show up in their rooms with it on at night.
There is a preprogrammed 9 minute cycle that you can select in which the mask runs through a series of LED and vibration therapies. You can also decide, by using the buttons and long pressing, to focus on certain types of light therapy, or run a 15-minute vibration therapy session, which is extremely relaxing.
I’ve used it every night for the last 7 nights, running the 9 minute therapy cycle as suggested by the manual. It is super easy to wear and super comfortable.
I know the biggest question of all, however, is does it work. For me, the jury is still out on the answer. There are times (and I’ve tried sharing some pictures of the days I’ve worn it) that I feel like it has helped lighten wrinkles and cleared up my complexion, but then there are other times when I don’t feel it’s down much. I plan to use it for a month and see if I can compare a months worth of pictures and see a difference.
I can tell you that the vibration mode is extremely relaxing to the face and scalp, and that I feel like it has done some good for my wrinkles and complexion, but it’s so gradual that I can’t be fully sure.

Heaviness of Mask Outweighs the Benefits

I have been trying out the new Therabody TheraFace Mask now for 9 minutes a day for 7 days. I do not think that this is enough time to get a true, objective result of what this mask is supposed to do for you, which is to treat full face wrinkles, treat acne, relieve headaches, and give a relaxing head massage. I will say that, no matter what, the results are difficult, if not impossible, to quantify.
In this short trial, I did find that the mask feels very heavy on the bridge of my nose and on my brow. I find that as the light and massage program progresses through its paces of bright red LED light therapy with a pulsating scalp, brow and temple massage pattern, then to a red and infrared LED light phase with a scalp and back of the head pulsating pattern, and finally to the blue LED light phase with continuous back of the head massage, the heaviness of the mask defeats the benefits of the pleasing massage and, for me, it becomes very uncomfortable.
It may be the shape of my face, the size of my head, the narrowness of my nose bridge, the incorrect adjustment of the top and back velcro straps that just makes it uncomfortable for me. You may not have the same experience. However, I have tried multiple adjustments and positionings to try to alleviate these issues and I have not been successful. This mask promises so much and costs a pretty penny, so I really want this to work. But, wanting and being are two different things, so I guess that I am just one of the unlucky ones.
Again, I can't say that everyone will find the same uncomfortable pressure from the weight of the mask that I have experienced. Reading some of the other reviews leads me to believe that I may be an outlier. So, you will have to experience wearing the mask yourself to make your own judgement. I wish you the best.

Quick LLLT facials at home, simple to use

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The TheraFace Mask isn’t my first foray into LED light facials, as I’ve had this procedure done professionally in-office by an esthetician as a treatment for acne as a teen. However, this is the first time I’ve had a consumer level device that allows me to perform these treatments at home. This product is FDA-cleared and safe for all skin types, Fitzpatrick scale 1-6, though the manual recommends against use if you have dark brown or black freckles, moles, or birthmarks on your face. You also should not apply retinol containing products immediately before use as your skin would be more sensitive to light.
The mask has two adjustable Velcro straps for the circumference and height of your head (back and top straps) so that the mask doesn't move on your face. It's a bit heavier than I'd anticipated, but the treatments are short, only 9 minutes. A rubber eyeshield protects your eyes from the lights while the machine is operating; they are removable, however, the recommendation is to keep your eyes closed during treatment if not installed. The eyeshield and eight rubber massage pads around it exert a firm but gentle pressure on your face and can leave behind some redness after treatment. Like marks from wearing swim goggles, these fade away after about 15 minutes.
The mask itself looks a bit like a hockey mask with a plain white front, a slightly flexible seam down the middle, and two eye holes that allow you to see through it. There is no mouth hole but the mask is far enough away from your face that it doesn't obstruct breathing. Do note, however, that the depth of the mask causes you to lose a bit of your peripheral vision, like having blinders on, so your field of view will be restricted. You’ll need to be a bit more cautious walking around as I’ve found it’s easy to bump into and trip over things.
Embedded in the mask are 648 red, blue, and infrared lights that run through 3 modes in sequence. Red light mode targets fine lines and wrinkles by enhancing collagen production, red with infrared penetrates your skin a little deeper to improve dark spots, even out skin tone, and boost circulation for better skin radiance or glow, and blue light helps to clear mild to moderate inflammatory acne. The inner part of the mask that sits around your eyes is made from a clear rubber while the parts that sit farther from your face are hard plastic. The lights feel a bit warm during use, but do not get hot.
The controls are simple: just press and hold the LED button on the right-hand-side of the mask, and it will start a fixed program that runs each mode for 3 minutes. You can skip a mode by short pressing the LED button to move on to the next mode. While the LED therapies are running, you will receive vibration therapy by default. During the red light mode, the massagers use a wave pattern of vibrations that ramp up and down in pulses of intensity around your eyes then around your head. For the second cycle of red and infrared light, it switches to a breathing massage pattern, which increases in intensity over a 5 second period prompting you to inhale, then fades out slowly indicating when to exhale. In blue light mode, only the head massager vibrators are active in a continuous pattern. The gentle vibrations are a bit strange at first and can cause a tickling sensation in the ears but are overall quite soothing, if just a bit noisy.
If you prefer a different massage mode during LED treatment, you can change it by short pressing the vibration button on the left-hand-side of the mask, and it will cycle through the three patterns and off. Alternatively, if you want only vibration without light therapy, you can long press the vibration button when turning on the device and choose the pattern you want to use for a 15-minute massage treatment. Note that all 8 eye massagers and 9 headband massagers will be active in this mode.
The device charges via USB-C through a port located on the underside of the right eyepiece. An adjacent status LED flashes while charging: orange for low battery, blue for medium, and turns a solid green when fully charged. On a full charge you can use the device around 12 times (LED lights with massage activated). To check the remaining power level, just short press either of the buttons and the LED will illuminate green, blue, or orange for 30 seconds.
The recommended care of the mask is to wipe the mask down after each use to prevent the buildup of dead skin, debris, or bacteria. Therabody recommends disinfecting the mask for 3 minutes, three times with isopropyl alcohol, so cleaning the unit may take you longer than the treatment itself. I like to use a lint-free disposable cloth like alcohol towelettes or kimwipes, as tissues and paper towel tend to leave behind fibers on the rubber. The mask comes with a chin stand for storage which works well.
Overall, I’ve found using this product to be a pretty relaxing experience. The soft massage vibrations are pleasant but optional, and the treatments are short while still allowing me to do other things like use my phone or read. I’ve used the product once a day for about a week, so I haven’t noticed a huge change to my skin. However, the day of my first treatment, I had a zit developing and within a few days, it had resolved without breaking the skin or leaving a mark. I look forward to seeing more results over time. I do wish the USB cable were a bit longer as at 2 ft, it doesn’t quite reach the power strip on the floor by my nightstand, but I like that it comes with a USB-A adapter, so it can be used with both USB-A or USB-C type chargers.

I did see results (albeit small) after only 7 days

I was excited to receive the product for review, as I’ve been reading up on light therapy and its benefits. After opening package, my son quickly stated how creepy it is. It does make you look like Jason from Friday the 13th.
After using the Theraface Mask for 7 uses, here is a quick summary of pros and cons on the product. For reference, I also use the following products on my face: vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, retinol, moisturizer, SPF.
Pros:
1. Easy to use. Only 2 buttons to use: one to turn light therapy on and a button to turn on massage feature.
2. Head straps are adjustable to make for an easy fit.
3. Has three light settings (red light, red w/infrared light, blue light) and mask rotates through all three on its own or you can skip any of them at the touch of a button.
4. Massage feature is great. Massage is located on the head straps on around forehead. Again, massage feature is easy to stop if you don’t like it with a different button.
5. Quick to use. Each of the 3 light settings are only 3 minutes long. You only need to use for 9 minutes if using all three settings.
6. Comes with a stand for your countertop.
Cons:
1. Light is very bright, need to keep eyes closed.
2. Takes up a bit of space on counter.
3. This last one is not necessarily a con, but more of a limitation and or precaution. Theraface recommends in its user manual to consult a medical professional before use. It states, “if taking or using any retinol or other sun-sensitive medications, products, or benzoyl peroxide, do not use infrared light.” I currently use retinol; therefore, I only use the red light and blue light setting. I skip the red w/infrared setting. So, in total, my treatment only lasts 6 minutes as opposed to 9 when all three settings are used. Also, another limitation that gave me pause is using this device with dark brown spots. The manual states, “The device should not be used if you have dark brown or black spots, such as large freckles, birthmarks, moles, or warts, on the area being treated.” I first had to make sure none of these applied to me. Regardless, it is important to read all the Safety information provided in the manual.
In summary, after using for only 7 times, I figured my review would discuss mostly the ease and comfort of using this product, but not actual visible results. I was wrong. Initially, I thought, 7 days isn’t very long to be able to see any results on fine lines and wrinkles (the reason why I’m using it). However, there does seem to be some visible differences after 7 uses. I took before and after pictures and tried to get the same lighting and angle for consistency. Overall, I am happy with the product and would recommend it to a friend. And I gave it 5 stars for ease of use and what seems like effectiveness after 7 uses.

Vibration massage is nice, but overall it's pricey

I've been reviewing products for years now and this is one of the toughest products I've reviewed. With most skincare products, you need to use it for more than a week to really see a difference and this product is no different. I've been using it regularly for about a week and haven't seen any noticeable results but that should be expected as most products take 6-12 weeks of continuous use to see results.
That being said, this product does have some features that I think work well. For example, the facial massage does relax you. At first, I didn't believe that it was that relaxing, but I nearly fell asleep after the nine minute light and massage therapy. I now use it right before I go to sleep to help relax me.
The light therapy uses red, blue, and infrared LEDs to help firm up the skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. The nine minute daily routine cycles through the three types of lights, while also providing the facial massage.
It is easy to use and comes with a USB-C charger and stand. It does look a little like a cross between a Michael Myers hockey mask and Groot, so maybe it can double as a Halloween mask. :)
There is an option to just use the vibration massage without the lights, since it is recommended to only use the LEDs daily, so you can still get a massage without the lights. There is also an eye shield that can be removed if you plan to use it with your eyes closed. I personally wouldn't recommend taking the shield off unless you are closing your eyes.
The one challenge I've had is that the head straps could use a little longer strip of velcro. I didn't think I had that small of a head but I am tightening it right to end of the velcro.
Overall, I will continue to use it daily for the next 5-10 weeks to see if there is a difference in my skin texture and minor wrinkles. I do like the vibration massage feature and will continue to use that before bedtime. That being said, I have a hard time recommending this product without seeing changes in my skin tone in the one week I've used it. If you read the science articles about LED lights, this is supposed to work and is recommended by the FDA, so maybe it is just a matter of time before it works...and it is an expensive item to go on faith that it will eventually work.

The unit came nicely packaged like an expensive tech device. In side is the mask itself, some eye protectors, charging stand and the charging unit. When taking the mask out of the box I was a little surprised by the design only because it looks like Michael Myers haha. And the stand unfortunately showcases the mask making it a creepy item to have sitting around. Good news it you’re not purchasing this for its looks you are buying for results and so does this deliver? I have used this mask everyday for the last few weeks and you are supposed to see results in around eight weeks so my review is based on the first few weeks and what results I noticed. I’m middle aged with wrinkles in the common spots and some rough skin. I never tried any other products to even out the skin tone or help with wrinkles. So far I notice minimal results with the wrinkles becoming less profound and my skin tone itself hasn’t changed but I’m really excited to see the next few weeks what happens. I’m happy with the mask and feel like it’s going to be great results. The mask is relaxing but one negative is that where it sits on my nose hurts and is uncomfortable which sucks because the massage feels great! Also battery life is outstanding and another plus the lights aren’t annoying. Overall I like this mask and would recommend to a friend.

The TheraFace Mask is a promising, non-invasive means to improve fine lines and wrinkles on one’s face. It provides in-home, medical-grade LED light therapy, which is said to provide improvement to the users’ skin within 8 weeks. Overall my skin is in fairly healthy condition with minor redness (fair-skinned) and no problematic acne but as I reach closer to 40, some fine lines are starting to set in. I was eager to give this mask a try because the earlier you start preventative skincare, the better the results, and I’m a big fan of non-invasive skincare. For me, smile lines around my mouth have been becoming more apparent over the past couple years with one side being more prominent than the other. (I think sleeping on the same side might be contributing to that because some days the lines seem better or worse depending how I slept the night before.) After 1 week of using the mask I noticed improvement with the side of the very fine line but little-to-no improvement with the other more set-in line (see picture). With only 1 week of use, it’s hard to say how well this mask may or may not improve the more set-in line, but, from the initial results so far, I’m willing to continue using the mask to find out.
Using the mask is very simple and can easily be integrated into a nighttime routine for most users. The fit of the mask is okay – I would say I have an average size head and I about maxed out the useable Velcro on the straps to make sure I had a snug fit. People with smaller heads might find the mask fitting more loosely as a result. If you’re at all claustrophobic, this mask is likely not for you. Breathing isn’t necessarily more difficult with the mask on, but the solid covering over both my nose and mouth made me more aware of my breathing. I didn’t particular care for the vibration feature of the mask. I honestly found it a bit annoying and wish there was an option to turn it off so the light therapy could be ran without it. (I feel that the lack of this option is a design oversight because you can run the vibration therapy without the lights but not vice versa.) When in-use, the plastic-rattle like noise from the massage motors distracted me from being able to fully relax and overall, I didn’t feel that the massaging feature was that impactful. Unfortunately, judging the full capability of the mask after only 1 week is extremely difficult as it’s expected to take up to 8 weeks for more noticeable improvements. From my short time of use, I would say that it does show some promising results, but I’m not sure whether the unknown final results are impressive enough to recommend at this price point. With the construction of the mask, and very basic features included with it, the retail price seems steep, but I suppose compared to the costs of seeking the same treatment within a medical office, the mask is probably a bargain by comparison.

This mask is legit! I do feel minor stinging in the hours after use but have already noticed subtle differences in my skin, and somebody randomly complimented my skin's glow today. It has two buttons, one for light and one to control vibration. For the most part we use the main pre-programmed cycle daily.

The TheraFace Mask is very easy to use. It only takes 9 minutes to run through a cycle of red light for 3 minutes, red light plus near infrared for 3 minutes, and blue light for 3 minutes per session. My wife doesn't feel she needs the blue light, so she just presses the button after the first two color cycles finish to turn it off so her sessions only last 6 minutes. After doing some research on light therapy devices, I determined that the TheraFace Mask uses light wavelengths and power density that have been proven through research to have positive results in the study subjects. We've only been using it for 2 weeks, so can't confirm results quite yet. My wife thinks it's helped her skin look healthier already. The documentation says to give it 12 weeks before expecting to see results. So far, I think it's a good device if you want a light therapy device. The vibration therapy that is an added function of this facemask is O.K. It's kind of relaxing, but I'm not sure it really adds anything to the therapy session, but it doesn't really detract from it either. It seems like the rubber pieces that touch your skin to do the vibration block the light from those locations where they touch your skin. They're fairly small locations on your skin that don't get light so I don't think it's a big issue, but it does seem like that's a factor to consider on whether you would like this mask or not. I like the TheraFace Mask and recommend it since it uses scientifically proven wavelengths and power density, and it's easy to use and sessions are quick and efficient.

Nothing really to compare it with and haven't been wearing it long enough to see results but I am happy I made the purchase to try it out. I do use red light therapy for hair and I do notice a difference so I am optimistic it will have some impact. The device itself is a little tight for me but not too uncomfortable. The main things that I didn't care for was the fact that the vibration is not really relaxing or anything .. it just kinda is what it is. The machine cycles through phases which is good but having more user control would be desirable. All in all though I like it and use it several times a week.
