The latest innovation in skincare technology comes in the form of a face-conforming surface lighting micro-LED (FSLED) mask, developed by Professor Keon Jae Lee’s team. Unlike conventional LED masks that have a rigid design, the FSLED mask is designed to closely conform to the skin’s contours, providing uniform photostimulation to the dermis.
One of the main challenges with traditional LED masks is their inability to deliver consistent light to deep skin tissues due to substantial light reflection. Up to 90% of light can be reflected over a distance of 2 cm, limiting the effectiveness of skin rejuvenation treatments. The FSLED mask addresses this issue by incorporating a 3D origami structure with 3,770 micro-LEDs and a flexible surface light-diffusion layer. This design minimizes the gaps between the light source and the skin, ensuring optimal light penetration for enhanced results.
A recent study titled “Clinical Validation of Face-fit Surface-lighting Micro Light-emitting Diode Mask for Skin Anti-aging Treatment,” published in Advanced Materials, showcased the impressive results of the FSLED mask. In clinical trials involving 33 participants, the mask demonstrated a 340% improvement in deep skin elasticity compared to conventional LED masks. This significant improvement highlights the mask’s effectiveness in reducing skin wrinkles, sagging, and overall aging.
Professor Lee emphasized the cosmetic benefits of the FSLED mask, noting that it provides anti-aging treatment to the entire facial dermis without the risk of low-temperature burns. This breakthrough technology opens up new possibilities for at-home skincare routines that enhance the quality of life for individuals seeking effective anti-aging solutions. With the FSLED mask, achieving youthful and radiant skin is now more accessible and convenient than ever before.
