Impressively, CurrentBody has maintained the two gold standard wavelengths used in the Series 1 Mask – red (633nm) and near-infrared (830nm)–but they’ve added deep near-infrared (1072nm) proven to be highly effective in cellular renewal in targeted areas with this new edition. This means that the mask now has 236 LEDs vs 132 LEDs previously – but of course, it’s not all about the number of LEDs. Rather, the quality.
“To ensure the LEDs in our Series 2 Mask deliver the most powerful antiaging benefits, we developed state-of-the-art testing equipment,” CurrentBody said. “This system measures the precision of thousands of individual LEDs, and only a small, highly precise selection makes it into our masks.
“But the testing doesn’t stop there. Each mask undergoes a final precision check to guarantee that the LEDs deliver the maximum anti-ageing effects for you.”
This unique precision testing then forms part of the brand’s Veritace® quality guarantee, the method it uses to prove that Series 2 offers a level of precision never seen in at-home LED masks before.
In short, each mask has a Veritace® Mark on it, which guarantees that the technology you’re using is one of the best, safest and most reliable on the market. It’s a sign of efficiency and quality, if you will: proof that it has actually been tested and tracked throughout every single stage of production. You can see the results for yourself by tapping the Veritace® NFC card inside your box. It’s really impressive.
FAQ: Is the Currentbody Skin LED Light Therapy Mask FDA-approved?
Yes, the CurrentBody LED mask is FDA-cleared and clinically proven to reduce wrinkles in four weeks, according to their website.
FAQ: How often can you use the Currentbody LED face mask?
You should use the CurrentBody LED face mask three to five times to week, for 10 minutes at a time. This is an optimized treatment time which reflects the power output of the precision of the mask, and when used as advised, CurrentBody states that their mask is proven to be “at least 31% more powerful and effective than any other at-home red and near infrared LED mask on the market.”
It’s worth noting that using it for more than the recommended amount of time will not boost your results.
FAQ: How quickly will I see results?
You can expect to see visible results in just four weeks when used consistently 10 minutes a day, three to five times per week. Although effective on its own, Currentbody recommends that you will achieve the best results when used with its CurrentBody Skin Hydrogel Face Masks or CurrentBody Skin Green Tea Serum. I did not test the mask with these products, so can’t vouch for their efficacy.
GLAMOUR Verdict: Is the CurrentBody LED face mask worth it?
In my opinion, the CurrentBody LED face mask Series 2 is the best choice you can make – and wonderfully, really great value for money.
The results of LED light therapy are cumulative. I can’t stress enough that you shouldn’t expect to see immediate changes to your complexion–and you should be consistent with your treatments. If you are, however, and your skin reacts in the same way as mine, I am confident you should start to see an improvement after a couple of weeks. At the end of week one, I started to see that my skin felt plumper and brighter after each treatment–and after week two, I noticed that my skin texture was beginning to improve. The tell-tale sign for me was that my makeup seemed to glide on with so much more ease–something which seemed to continue to get better with time.

While I can’t vouch for the impact it has had on wrinkles – I have young skin, but hope regular use will prevent premature aging–the reduction in spots I experienced in the week prior to my period was something quite extraordinary. For me, it’s reason enough alone to continue using it. After using the Currentbody Skin LED face mask three times a week for for four weeks, I really did notice my skin to be brighter, less-tired looking and significantly clearer of blemishes. I also found that, as with my makeup, my skincare now absorbs into my skin better. From my overnight masks to my hydrating serums, everything just seems to sink in.
