LED Masks:
Blue LED light can cause temporary pigmentation on darker skin tones. Fitzpatrick Skin Type V and above (typically described as brown to dark brown and darker) may be more prone to developing pigmentation after blue light exposure. We recommend discontinuing use if pigmentation occurs. Red light and near-infrared (NIR) light are suitable for all skin tones and can improve the appearance of pigmentation, while helping to reduce redness and calm irritation.

Choosing a device can be tricky, but we're here to help! Devices which use IPL or a form of laser will often indicate which skin tone and hair colour combinations are compatible.
The skin tones are categorised by the Fitzpatrick scale as shown:
We have a quiz on-site to help you choose the perfect IPL device! If you would like to speak with us before ordering please let us know your hair colour, the technology you are interested in and which skin tone category you fall under so we can help to match you with the perfect product.
