Shark CryoGlow vs The Light Salon Boost
Shark CryoGlow FW312 and The Light Salon Boost LED Face Mask (Boost Advanced), side by side. They share 830 nm; Shark CryoGlow lists 160+ LEDs and The Light Salon Boost lists 112. Published specifications only; neither is ranked.
Key differences
- Shared wavelengths
- 830 nm
- Only Shark CryoGlow
- 415, 630 nm
- Only The Light Salon Boost
- 633 nm
- LED count
- 160+ vs 112
- Session
- Programme-dependent; 8 min in baseline vs 10 min
- Near-infrared
- Both list near-infrared
What the differences mean
Both list red and near-infrared light, the pairing used in several wrinkle studies.
Only the Shark CryoGlow lists blue light, which acne studies paired with red.
Sessions differ: Programme-dependent; 8 min in baseline versus 10 min. Session time alone does not set the dose; output matters too.

Questions
Which has more wavelengths, the Shark CryoGlow or the The Light Salon Boost?
The Shark CryoGlow lists 3 wavelengths and the The Light Salon Boost lists 2. More wavelengths is not the same as more effective.
Do the Shark CryoGlow and The Light Salon Boost share any wavelengths?
Yes: 830 nm.
Which research matches each mask?
6 of the 15 summarised studies match both. 4 match only the Shark CryoGlow and 0 match only the The Light Salon Boost.
The manufacturer now sells this as the Boost LED Face Mask: 633 nm red + 830 nm near-infrared, 10-minute sessions, €450. LED Mask Specs lists it as Boost Advanced with 56 red and 56 near-infrared LEDs; the LED count was not found on the current page.
