A new at-home medical-grade LED Light Therapy Mask has landed, and it aims to give you ‘salon-quality’ treatments at home – and in just 10 treatments. 

The Correxiko LED Light Therapy Face Mask is an at-home beauty device designed to help enhance the appearance of your skin, promoting a smoother, firmer, and more radiant look, all without needles or downtime.

Correxiko LED Light Therapy Face Mask  £399

Standing out from others on the market, the Correxiko LED Light Therapy Face Mask encloses the face with minimal openings and extended LED coverage across the forehead, nose folds, lips, jawline, and jowls.

Designed to help promote the appearance of refreshed, revitalised skin from the comfort of home, beauty enthusiasts may notice the potential benefits of multi-wavelength light therapy with regular use, three to five days a week, over a period of several weeks.

Featuring 333 LED lights and four wavelengths that have been explored in clinical studies, the mask is intended to support the skin’s natural processes, including the appearance of firmness and elasticity.

Marine Collagen Peptides Powder 30-Day Supply  £39.95

The brand’s wild-fish caught collagen peptides powder provides amino acids that support the body’s natural processes.

The collagen is double hydrolysed to create a micro-particle peptide size, which may help with absorption when taken as part of a balanced diet. The brand recommends taking one 10,000 mg serving per day, which is flavourless and easy to mix with food or drinks.

With regular use alongside a healthy lifestyle, users may notice benefits such as the appearance of smoother-looking skin, fuller hair, and support for joint comfort.

LED light therapy was once reserved for indulgent in-salon treatments, but thanks to the surplus of at-home LED masks, it’s never been easier to harness the power of red-light therapy from the comfort of your own home. 

Whilst some LED masks are asking for upwards of a jaw-dropping £1,000 and others don’t meet medical-grade standards, the Correxiko LED Light Therapy Face Mask ticks boxes for both affordability and results. 

At £399, the Light Emitting Diode mask is still an investment, so we put it to the test to see if these tiny bulbs that emit different wavelengths of light actually help to tackle everything from acne to wrinkles. 

Shoppers are increasingly turning to science-backed beauty rituals to restore their skin, energy and confidence, but with so many LED masks now on the market, how do we know which is worth the cash?

First things first, any at-home LED mask will contain fewer bulbs and deliver less energy than in-clinic versions, but that’s not to say that when used religiously, the results aren’t impressive.

The new Correxiko LED Mask was developed by Dr Dinuk Dissanayake, the founder of Correxiko collagen. The brand’s bestselling collagen has been double hydrolysed to create a micro-particle peptide size. This is designed to support absorption and may help contribute to skin that appears plumper, hair that looks thicker, and joints that feel more comfortable.

Using the same science-led philosophy behind the brand’s bestselling marine collagen supplements, the Correxiko LED Light Therapy Mask was created. Designed to help rejuvenate, refresh, and restore the appearance of your skin from the comfort of home, disciplined beauty enthusiasts can enjoy the multi-wavelength light therapy at their convenience – no booking required. 

The mask comes with a handy attached controller which allows you to scroll through the precise combination of amber (590nm), red (633nm), near-infrared (830nm), and deep near-infrared (1072nm) wavelengths

Using 333 LED lights and four clinically studied wavelengths, the mask penetrates the skin to support cellular activity, helping to promote the appearance of healthier, more radiant skin.

No other LED mask brand combines this approach, creating a complete skincare system that blends scientific research with targeted nutrition.

In fact, there are several design details that make the Correxiko LED Light Therapy Face Mask stand out from others on the market. 

On trying the mask, the first thing I noticed was the size and the flexible design. While the majority of LED masks sit flat on the face, this mask is akin to something a little reminiscent of Michael Meyers.

There are three settings brightening, anti-ageing and full spectrum with the mask giving you full coverage to include forehead, jawline, chin and mouth

While it might look terrifying, and I did find the LED mask slightly claustrophobic with no mouthpiece, this silicone, next-generation design is purposeful. 

The full-face design helps deliver a full ‘bath of light’ across the entire face – including the hairline, forehead, lips, jawline, jowls and under the chin – areas where ageing often shows first but is frequently ignored. 

The Correxiko mask comes with a handy attached controller which allows you to scroll through the precise combination of amber (590nm), red (633nm), near-infrared (830nm), and deep near-infrared (1072nm) wavelengths. 

Each one has been scientifically validated for its ability to penetrate the skin at different depths, stimulating cellular activity and supporting collagen regeneration. 

The device is easy to use, pre-programmed for convenient 10-minute sessions so you can do it in your lunch break, with your morning cup of tea or a quiet moment before bed – I did all three and confirm it’s comfortable and has enough eye gap so you can read or watch TV whilst you wait.

As with most skincare, consistency is key, with the brand recommending using the mask three to five times per week. I have been testing the mask for two weeks and have found that it’s become a staple in my wellness routine.

I’ve looked forward to my ten-minute sessions and have alternated between the brightening and anti-ageing settings. It took me a couple of tries to get used to the full-coverage design, but the flexible silicone is easy to adjust for your comfort. 

It might be too soon to see any real results, but I do think my skin looks brighter, and I am finding that I need less concealer, which is always a plus. 

After four weeks, clinical research showed improvements in skin firmness, elasticity, and radiance, with participants experiencing up to a 30 per cent reduction in wrinkle depth and a 57 per cent increase in skin plumpness within eight weeks of consistent use. 

Needless to say, I will be continuing with the Correxiko mask and embracing science-led advanced red light therapy from home.
