Short answer
The Omnilux Contour Face uses 633 nm red and 830 nm near-infrared light from 132 LEDs at about 30 mW/cm², Omnilux states, and is FDA-cleared for full-face wrinkles. It lists at $535 on Omnilux’s site (1 November 2026), with a two-year warranty. On Amazon it is sold only by third-party resellers.
Omnilux is the reference point of the LED mask market for a simple reason: the name started on medical devices. The FDA’s database lists Omnilux Red, Blue, Plus and Revive, clinic light systems from Photo Therapeutics, cleared between 2003 and 2009, and today’s Omnilux, owned by GlobalMed Technologies, sells flexible silicone masks for home use built around the same wavelengths. That history is real, and it is also the brand’s marketing, so this page separates the two.
What the Omnilux Contour is
| Omnilux Contour Face, as Omnilux states it | |
|---|---|
| Wavelengths | 633 nm red, 830 nm near-infrared |
| LEDs | 132 |
| Irradiance | about 30 mW/cm² (“energy output”, FAQ) |
| FDA | cleared for the treatment of full-face wrinkles |
| Use | 3 to 5 sessions a week for 4 to 6 weeks, then maintenance |
| Warranty | 2 years |
| Price | $535 on omniluxled.com, 1 November 2026 |
That 30 mW/cm² is the line worth stopping on. Most masks publish no irradiance at all, and our mask evidence guide is built on that silence. Omnilux does publish one, and it is modest: well below what budget masks print on their boxes and below what panels state at six inches. Modest is not a flaw. Red and near-infrared on skin follow a biphasic response, where more light past a point does less, not more, and the studies behind these wavelengths used doses in the range a 30 mW/cm² mask reaches in about ten minutes (30 mW/cm² × 600 s ÷ 1,000 = 18 J/cm²). What Omnilux does not say is at what distance it measured the 30, which is the same gap every brand leaves.
The Omnilux range
- Contour Face. The red and near-infrared anti-aging mask above.
- Contour Neck and Décolleté. The same two wavelengths on a panel shaped for the neck and upper chest.
- Omnilux Clear. The acne mask: 415 nm blue with 633 nm red, Omnilux states. The FDA lists Omnilux CLEAR under GlobalMed Technologies as K210948, decided June 2021.
- Omnilux Men. Adds a 1072 nm near-infrared wavelength, which Omnilux says suits men’s thicker skin. We have not seen an independent study comparing the two on men’s skin.
Does the Omnilux mask work?
For mild to moderate wrinkles and skin tone, red and near-infrared light has a published literature, mostly small and short, which our evidence guide summarises. Omnilux points to more than 40 studies on its devices; many used the clinic systems, not the home masks, and many were run by or with the company. Its home-mask results (“96% said skin felt firmer and younger”) are what users said, not what was measured.
For acne, blue light has better mechanistic support than red, but the American Academy of Dermatology’s 2024 acne guideline made no recommendation for light therapy. Omnilux Clear is an add-on to acne treatment, not a substitute.
The honest summary is the one we give for every mask: the wavelengths are the right ones, the dose is stated (rarer than it should be), and what any one face will see after six weeks is not something a study of 30 people can promise.
Is Omnilux on Amazon?
Not from Omnilux. On 1 November 2026 the Amazon listing for the Contour Face was sold and shipped by a third-party reseller, and its brand field read “NRO”, not Omnilux. That does not mean the unit is fake. It means you would be buying a $500 medical-grade device outside the brand’s own channel, where the warranty may not apply and where you cannot be sure which revision, or whose stock, you are getting. We do not link that listing. Buy Omnilux from Omnilux or from a retailer it lists as authorised.
Masks with the same wavelengths, sold by their own brands on Amazon
These are not Omnilux clones. They share the wavelengths that matter, and each is sold by its own brand and shipped from Amazon, as of 1 November 2026.
CurrentBody LED light therapy mask, Series 1
633 nm red and 830 nm near-infrared from 132 LEDs, 66 of each: the same pair, at the same count, as the Contour Face. Flexible silicone, 10-minute sessions, three to five times a week. The listing states no irradiance, so whether it matches Omnilux’s 30 mW/cm² is unknown, and we found no FDA clearance for Series 1 specifically (CurrentBody’s Series 2 has one, K250966). Sold by CurrentBody’s parent company, shipped from Amazon.

Qure neck, décolletage and chest LED mask, 633 and 830 nm
The neck-and-chest counterpart: 633 nm red and 830 nm near-infrared from 55 dual-core LEDs, automatic 10-minute cycles, adjustable straps. No irradiance stated. Sold by Qure Skincare, shipped from Amazon.

iRestore LED face mask, 635, 830 and 415 nm
635 nm red and 830 nm near-infrared, a few nanometres from Omnilux’s pair, plus 415 nm blue for breakouts: roughly Contour and Clear in one device. 360 LEDs in a mask that hovers off the face, 10-minute sessions. No irradiance and no FDA clearance stated. Sold by iRestore, shipped from Amazon.

Shark CryoGlow LED face mask with under-eye cooling
Not the same wavelengths (the listing gives none in nanometres), but the alternative most buyers weigh against Omnilux: FDA 510(k) K242796, cleared for wrinkles with acne as a second code, short 4- to 8-minute programs, and a cooling under-eye pad. Sold and shipped by Amazon. Our Shark CryoGlow page covers it in full.

What we have not measured
We have not measured an Omnilux mask or any of the alternatives on this page. The Omnilux figures are Omnilux’s, read on 1 November 2026; the alternatives’ figures are their Amazon listings the same day; clearance numbers are from the FDA database the same day.
The measurement that would answer the question people actually ask, “is the Omnilux worth twice the price”, is a spectroradiometer reading at the skin, with the mask on a head form, at the forehead, cheeks and chin: real irradiance against the stated 30 mW/cm², and the real peak wavelengths against 633 and 830 nm. Run the CurrentBody Series 1 the same way and you would know whether the two are the same dose in different packaging. That test is on our list as owed, with the method on how we test.

Questions buyers actually ask
Is the Omnilux mask worth it?
If you want the brand with the longest clinical history and a two-year warranty, and you will use it three to five times a week for at least six weeks, it is a reasonable buy at its $535 list price (Omnilux, 1 November 2026). If you want the same two wavelengths for less, the CurrentBody Series 1 uses 633 and 830 nm from the same number of LEDs. Neither has been measured side by side by anyone independent.
Is Omnilux sold on Amazon?
Not by Omnilux, as of 1 November 2026. The listing we found for the Contour Face was sold and shipped by a third-party reseller, with the brand field reading "NRO". Buying a medical-grade device from a reseller can void the maker's warranty and leaves you unsure what you received. We would buy it from Omnilux or an authorised retailer instead.
What wavelengths does the Omnilux Contour use?
Red at 633 nm and near-infrared at 830 nm, according to Omnilux. The acne mask, Omnilux Clear, pairs 415 nm blue with 633 nm red, and Omnilux Men adds a 1072 nm near-infrared wavelength.
How often should you use the Omnilux mask?
Omnilux recommends three to five sessions a week for four to six weeks, then maintenance sessions as you see fit. Results in its studies are measured over weeks, so a fair trial is at least six weeks of regular use.
Is Omnilux FDA approved?
It is FDA-cleared, which is not the same thing: Omnilux says the Contour Face is cleared for the treatment of full-face wrinkles. The FDA database lists Omnilux clearances going back to the clinic devices of 2003, and Omnilux CLEAR under K210948 (2021). LED masks go through 510(k) clearance, never the approval pathway used for high-risk devices.
