Your guide to LED light therapy, from understanding the technology to getting the most from every treatment.
Why is the NursesChoice LED design different?
Our LED Face Mask is engineered with 240 high-powered, science-backed bulbs, each featuring a large professional diode designed to deliver consistent, targeted light across the skin.
Rather than relying on a higher number of smaller LEDs, our large-diode design is engineered to provide strong, even coverage and effective light delivery across the treatment area.
The device also allows Near-Infrared light to work alongside Red, Blue or Yellow light, combining complementary wavelengths within a single treatment to target different depths of the skin.
What is the NursesChoice LED Therapy Face Mask?
The NursesChoice LED Therapy Face Mask is an SAA-approved at-home LED device designed to deliver four clinically recognised wavelengths of light. It combines professional LED technology with the convenience of an at-home treatment.
What does SAA Approval stand for?
SAA Approval is an accredited third-party certification body that assesses electrical equipment against applicable safety requirements and standards.
Can I use the mask while moving around?
Yes. The NursesChoice LED Face Mask is portable and travel-friendly, allowing you to continue with everyday activities while completing your LED session.
Is there a product guide or product manual?
Yes. Product manuals are available for the LED Face Mask, LED Bundle and LED Neck & Décolletage device. Always follow the directions for use and refer to the manual supplied with your device for instructions, warnings, precautions and contraindications.
What’s the difference between the medical-grade chip and the 7-colour RGB chip?
More colours do not necessarily mean a more effective LED device. The NursesChoice four-wavelength mask uses dedicated chips for its therapeutic wavelengths, while seven-colour RGB masks typically use the same LED source to generate multiple colours. Dedicated wavelength technology allows the device to more precisely deliver the intended wavelength and energy for each treatment mode.
So what is the difference between these two?
Medical-grade LED chips are designed to operate within a narrow wavelength range so the intended therapeutic wavelength can be delivered accurately. NursesChoice uses separate chips for its different light wavelengths, rather than relying on one RGB LED to generate multiple colours.
Why is the four-chip better than the single chip?
LED effectiveness depends on factors including wavelength and the amount of light energy delivered. A dedicated multi-chip configuration allows individual wavelengths to receive the energy required rather than dividing available energy across multiple wavelengths generated by a single chip.
Do I need to clean the mask? How do I clean it?
Yes. Clean both sides of your mask before each use using a water-based wipe or a clean, damp cloth.
Why do the red and near-infrared lights turn on at the same time?
Near-infrared light is outside the visible spectrum, so you cannot see it with the naked eye. Red and near-infrared wavelengths can also be used together as complementary wavelengths during an LED treatment.
How do I place an order?

Is LED safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
LED therapy is generally considered a low-risk, non-invasive skincare technology. However, because research during pregnancy and breastfeeding is limited, NursesChoice recommends consulting your doctor or healthcare provider before use. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding or under medical care, seek professional guidance before beginning LED therapy.
Can LED help products absorb better?
LED therapy supports healthy cellular activity and circulation, helping support overall skin function. When combined with an appropriate skincare routine, particularly hydrating products, it can complement your broader skin routine.
What skincare should I use before LED?
For best results, begin your LED session with clean, dry skin. Apply hydrating skincare, such as Hyaluronic Acid Serum, after your treatment. Avoid applying heavy moisturisers, oils or occlusive products before LED.
Why is Hyaluronic Acid recommended with LED?
Hyaluronic Acid complements an LED routine by providing hydration and supporting the skin barrier. Used after LED, it can help support plumper-looking, healthier and more resilient skin while enhancing hydration and glow.
How often should I use the HA Serum?
The NursesChoice Hyaluronic Acid Serum can be used daily and is particularly suited to use after an LED session. It can be applied morning or night, after LED therapy, or whenever your skin is feeling dry or sensitised.
Is the HA Serum suitable for sensitive or compromised skin?
Hyaluronic Acid is generally well tolerated and can be suitable for sensitive, reactive or post-treatment skin. If you have a medical skin condition or particular sensitivity, patch testing or seeking personalised professional advice is recommended.
Why is the subscription sent every month?
The monthly delivery cycle is designed to complement a consistent LED and skincare routine while ensuring you have fresh serum available. The subscription is intended to make maintaining your skincare routine simple and convenient.

Is LED safe for all skin tones?
LED light therapy is generally considered suitable across different skin tones because it does not rely on melanin-targeting energy in the way certain laser technologies do. NursesChoice devices use non-invasive wavelengths designed to support a broad range of complexions.
Are there any contraindications for LED use?
Some people should avoid LED therapy unless they have received medical approval. This may include people with light-sensitivity disorders, light-triggered epilepsy, active skin infections or certain autoimmune conditions. If you are unsure whether LED is suitable for you, consult your healthcare provider.
Can I use LED if I’m on medication?
Some medications can increase sensitivity to light. If you take prescription medication—particularly certain acne medications or antibiotics—check with your doctor before beginning LED therapy.
Why is consistency more important than intensity?
LED works cumulatively, so regular treatments over time are important. Consistent sessions support the skin’s natural repair processes, collagen production and overall skin function more effectively than occasional intensive use.
What happens if I miss sessions?
Missing an occasional session will not undo your progress. Simply return to your usual routine when you can. Long-term consistency is more important than completing every individual session.
How does LED support professional treatments?
LED is commonly incorporated into professional skin treatments to support recovery, calm the appearance of inflammation, promote healing and support collagen production. At-home LED can complement professional treatments by supporting the skin between appointments.
Can LED replace in-clinic treatments?
At-home LED is designed to complement rather than replace professional skin treatments. It can support skin health between appointments and help maintain a consistent skincare routine alongside professional treatments.
