New technologies to improve skin aging at home are a great innovation in the dermatological field and portable devices to use at home are very popular in the last few years. In this context, although the treatment sessions are usually short, the tools can be large and cause discomfort, especially if they need to be charged or with wires.
The Dr. Harris Anti-Wrinkle Mask is a highlight due to its different mechanism from the rest. It looks exactly like a silk sleep mask. The difference is that it has a series of raised silicone dots, placed in the right places to stimulate mechanoreceptors (small nerve endings) on the face. The pressure activates the autonomic nervous system and with that, will relax the skin and create a more youthful appearance.
Published studies have shown that the use of the anti-wrinkle mask for 15 minutes has the power to reduce glabellar wrinkles by 64% for up to five hours when compared with a regular sleep mask. Prolonged use can also bring more significant and longer-lasting results.
Similar products are also available, like the Anti-Aging Sleeping Mask for women with Copper Ion Technology by the By Sleep Fountain Company and the Iluminage Skin Rejuvenating Eye Mask for fine lines reduction with anti-aging copper technology.
In conclusion, the mask brings effective results without needles or pain and while sleeping at home, on planes, or whenever a sleep mask is called for. For people that did not adapt or want to use light therapy or invasive treatments, it is a great alternative.
