Why it matters

Near-infrared is the clearest difference: only the Shark CryoGlow lists it. Near-infrared (around 830–850 nm) appears in wrinkle and recovery studies, usually paired with red.

Both list blue light, which acne studies paired with red.

Sessions differ: 3 min versus 6.4 min ageing · 8.4 min clearing · 4.3 min maintenance. Session time alone does not set the dose; output matters too.

Studies matching only the Shark CryoGlow

Four studies match both, including what a review of 31 led trials found.

Full specifications
Manufacturer source

Manufacturer page checked 2 November 2026 lists 100 red and 60 blue lights, but also says up to 100 lights. It describes red, blue and combined modes with a three-minute automatic shut-off. Its comparison table additionally lists 605 and 880 nm in the FaceWare column; the exact spectral configuration is unresolved, so the wavelength array keeps only the shared red/blue values. K183247 is a possible family match, not a confirmed retail-model match.
