The Sorisse Wand: spot sessions, explained

A wand and a mask do different jobs

A mask covers your whole face at once and lets you rest while the timer runs. A wand is a small handheld light for a few minutes on one area at a time, such as along the jaw, around the mouth or the backs of your hands. It also fits in a bag for nights away.

What is inside

The Sorisse Wand is a light metal wand with a rechargeable battery and a wrist strap. Its maker lists five light wavelengths across red, blue and near-infrared.

How to use it

1. Start with clean, dry skin.
2. Turn the wand on and hold it close to the skin.
3. Move slowly over the area for a few minutes, then move on.
4. Keep the light away from your eyes, and never look into it.²
5. Charge it between uses.

What the research covers

The studies behind red light used regular sessions over weeks.¹ A wand delivers the same kinds of light to a small area, so think of it as a handy extra rather than a replacement for regular full-face sessions. Dermatologists also point out that home devices are gentler than clinic machines and need consistent use.³

Who it is for

The Wand is sold beside the Sorisse Mask. If you already use the mask most evenings and want a few minutes of light on one area, or something small for your bag, it is a simple add-on to your order.

Sorisse makes cosmetic devices, not treatments for any medical condition. Check with your doctor first if you are pregnant, have a skin condition, or take medication that makes you sensitive to light.
