We live in an age where skincare enthusiasts can truly thrive. Not only do we have incredible science-backed products to enhance complexions, but also collagen powders and supplements to make skin bouncy, plus peptide injectables to help achieve that glow-from-within. And then of course we have the in-office treatments. Lasers, peels, needling and PRP facials are all great splurge-worthy ways to take it to the next level.
But any derm, aesthetician or skincare expert will tell you the same thing: maintenance is the name of the game. This is where at-home devices enter the chat. From keeping pigmentation at bay, to tightening loose jowls – and even boosting hair growth – these tools keep us looking vibrant in between those pricey appointments. Some of them even claim to be as effective as an in-office treatment, when used consistently over time. We rounded up the best beauty devices on the market so you can do your homework.
Fractional lasers performed at the derm’s office can not only be painful, but they have significant downtime, making them tricky to schedule. This at-home device is non-fractional (which means it treats the entire targeted area, not just pixelated areas) and uses the same laser chip as professional dermatology systems to build collagen and smooth out fine lines – minus redness or swelling. Place it on areas with noticeable fine lines for two-three minutes per use makes this an easy tool to incorporate into your routine. Plus, when used every night, results should match those achieved in-office. (Tip: it’s great for those hard-to-treat lip lines!)

You may have heard about plasma, a new buzzy term in the beauty world. No, this isn’t the bloody substance that’s often smeared across skin during facials, but rather a technology that uses cold plasma to boost collagen production with ionized energy that’s transferred directly to cells. It really does everything; aside from being great for evening out skin tone, it calms break-outs, tightens, and improves absorption of your favorite skincare. Use it every other day for optimum results.

Surely, this is not the first time you’ve seen a Hannibal Lector-esque face mask grace the page of your favorite site. These LED red light systems are popular for a reason; they’re easy to use, promote collagen, calm inflammation, and have zero downtime. But this one is different; it features deep red bulbs (maroon, actually) to saturate the skin cells more effectively than your regular ol’ red light. And with more bulbs per square inch than other devices, it imparts uniform coverage for all-over treatment.

True, this rose quartz mask is technically not a device but it is an at-home tool for instantly soothing and de-puffing the eyes. Handcrafted from high-grade South African rose quartz, these crystals are believed to stimulate lymph flow while also imparting tranquility for frantic moments. Be sure to keep it refrigerated for an extra cooling experience (and late nights out).

Hair loss is a tricky topic as it’s often hard to determine the root cause of the issue. And while traditional treatments can offer support, they’re not always a sustainable option (in-office treatments are pricey, serums are sticky, and supplements can have adverse health effects). This near infrared LED red light hat is a science-backed, one-time purchase that tackles all the important stuff: it increases blood flow to the scalp, strengthens follicles, reduces inflammation and stimulates ATP production to energize cells. And it could not be easier to incorporate into your routine – wear it for ten minutes while you go about your day.

This sleek gold vibrating bar holds real estate in many celebrity bathrooms as it was developed by a Hollywood makeup artist and industry star. Built in Japan, it de-puffs and sculpts the face when you need to look fresh, contoured and just awake. Sweep it upward on jawline and cheek bones to boost blood flow and reduce tension (you’ll notice a pretty flush that you’ll want to hold on to), or simply spot treat areas around the face. Bonus: you can even use it on “Tech Neck” to smooth away lines.

This ever-so-popular device was born in Korea (a popular place for beauty, have you heard?) and has made a splash on Tik Tok for its celebrity-approval rating and its glass skin claims. With four modalities (including EMF to tighten jaw lines and “electric needles” to improve pores), this all-in-one device needs no gooey conductor gel (it can be used with your own skincare), and takes just minutes each day to firm, volumize and yes, glow.

You’d be hard-pressed to find someone who celebrates their jowls, so this lifting mask is a savior for those who want to redefine the jawline. Using EMS technology (which sends electrical impulses that cause targeted muscles to contract and relax), it sculpts the jawbone and cheeks and with consistent use, smooths out sagging skin. Think of it as a work-out – but one you won’t dread doing.

Developed by a top-notch LA derm, this multi-functional tool employs blue light (to clear break-outs), red light (to boost mitochondrial function), violet light (to quell inflammation), electro-stimulation (to improve elasticity), and both low and high radio frequency settings to tighten everything up. And while consistency is key, you can expect to see firmer and plumper skin after only one use.

We know that the eyes tend to reveal age sooner than the rest of the face so it’s important to treat them with respect. This near-infrared eye mask uses amber light (to improve uneven tone), deep red lights (to address signs of aging in crow’s feet and sagging), as well as tackle morning puffiness. Slip it on for three minutes a day while you read, watch a show – or even scroll.
