My skin has received more compliments than ever since I started using this lesser-known LED mask.
As a beauty editor, I've experimented with numerous skincare tools. From microcurrent devices to home hair removal tools, I've tested hundreds of beauty products during my ten years in the industry. Currently, the most frequently asked about skincare device is LED masks. In the past, LED light therapy required a visit to a clinic, but a new trend of at-home LED masks allows you to enjoy the skin-rejuvenating benefits while relaxing in front of Netflix or scrolling through TikTok. Having tested various LED masks for my job, I had many points of comparison when the Keskine LED Red Light Therapy Face Mask Pro arrived at my desk. Over the past 12 weeks, I've been evaluating it to help you determine if it’s worth adding to your skincare routine.

**Pros**
- Four LED wavelengths, including red, blue, yellow, and orange.
- Clinically proven to reduce wrinkles and breakouts.
- Contains more LED bulbs than most other LED devices available, leading to enhanced LED coverage.
**Cons**
- Positioned at the higher end of the price spectrum for LED masks.
- The mask's larger, rigid design requires more storage space.
**The Technology**
What stands out about this LED mask is its variety of light wavelengths: red, blue, orange, and yellow, with four treatment modes addressing various skin concerns.
- **Red**: Red (650nm) + Infrared (1064nm) to boost collagen and plump wrinkles.
- **Purple**: Blue (465nm) + Red (650nm) + Infrared (1064nm) to enhance skin repair and healing.
- **Yellow**: Yellow (590nm) + Infrared (1064nm) to calm skin and diminish redness.
- **Orange**: Yellow (590nm) + Red (650nm) + Infrared (1064nm) to illuminate the skin and enhance radiance.
The mask features 352 LEDs, significantly more than many others on the market, resulting in superior light distribution across the skin for better results. Keskine has even performed clinical studies on this device, showing a 28.9% improvement in the appearance of wrinkles and a 54.55% reduction in visible blemishes within two weeks.
**My Experience**
I tested the mask for 12 weeks, using it about 4-5 days a week on average. The mask's design differs greatly from the flexible versions I've previously tried; it has a rigid, molded structure without eye or mouth openings. Initially, I worried it might feel claustrophobic since you can’t see out, but the cushioned eye area provides some visibility from the inside. It fits comfortably with adjustable straps and is larger than typical masks, ensuring LED coverage all the way to the hairline, which is a significant advantage for those seeking benefits for hair growth.
While this LED mask is pricier than some alternatives, it offers four different treatment modes—most LED masks usually only provide red and infrared options. Whether you're looking for skin brightening, firming, acne treatment, or smoothing, there's a suitable treatment for almost any concern. Each treatment lasts 10 minutes, which easily integrates into a nighttime routine. I did find that visibility through the mask could be better, making reading a bit difficult. However, the mask feels secure and comfortable, allowing for movement without it slipping off, as some LED masks do.
During my testing period, my primary concerns were hydrating my skin and reducing breakouts, so I frequently used the red and blue light settings.

**The Verdict**
After a gap of a few weeks from my last LED mask, my skin appeared dull, uneven, and I was experiencing some breakouts. Additionally, I had a flare-up of perioral dermatitis and eczema, setting a high bar for this mask’s efficacy. I cycled through the various settings and began noticing results after about two weeks. The first improvement was a noticeable radiance. I would wake up to find my skin looking more luminous compared to nights when I didn’t use the mask. My breakouts were less frequent, and those that appeared healed faster (thanks to the blue light!). The yellow light setting was particularly effective in reducing inflammation and redness during my dermatitis flare-up, clearing it in under a week. Now, 12 weeks later, I’ve received more compliments about my skin than ever, confirming the effectiveness of this LED mask.
As with any LED mask, consistency is key to seeing results; using it once or twice a week is insufficient. However, with 4-5 days of use each week, I noticed significant plumping of fine lines around my eyes and forehead. Since my last Botox treatment has worn off, this was a beneficial way to maintain the results until my next appointment.
