Shark CryoGlow (FW312) vs
The Light Salon Boost Advanced

Two of the nine LED face masks in our comparison table, side by side. Every figure below is one the manufacturer publishes itself; where a brand stays silent the cell says so.

The short answer

The Shark CryoGlow (FW312) emits at 415 nm, 630 nm, 830 nm. The The Light Salon Boost Advanced emits at 633 nm, 830 nm. Both cover red and near-infrared, the two ranges with the strongest published evidence for skin.

Only the The Light Salon Boost Advanced publishes an irradiance figure (~30 mW/cm² · ~18 J/cm² por sesión). The Shark CryoGlow (FW312) does not, so the dose the two masks deliver cannot be compared.

“Published irradiance” means the brand prints an output figure on its own product page. “FDA cleared” is not “FDA approved” — see the questions below.

Where they differ

Wavelengths
The Shark CryoGlow (FW312) emits at 415 nm, 630 nm, 830 nm. The The Light Salon Boost Advanced emits at 633 nm, 830 nm. Both cover red and near-infrared, the two ranges with the strongest published evidence for skin.
LED count
The Shark CryoGlow (FW312) carries more diodes: 160 against 112. Diode count sets how evenly light reaches the face — a coverage figure, not an efficacy figure.
Published irradiance
Only the The Light Salon Boost Advanced publishes an irradiance figure (~30 mW/cm² · ~18 J/cm² por sesión). The Shark CryoGlow (FW312) does not, so the dose the two masks deliver cannot be compared.
Regulatory
The The Light Salon Boost Advanced prints a searchable 510(k) number (K191629); the Shark CryoGlow (FW312) states its clearance without printing one. These devices are FDA cleared, not FDA approved — clearance is a safety and manufacturing signal, not proof of results.
Session and modes
The Shark CryoGlow (FW312) runs 8 min per session (3 programas específicos + enfriamiento para el contorno de ojos). The The Light Salon Boost Advanced runs 10 min (programa único, 3–5×/semana).
Fit and power
Shark CryoGlow (FW312): rígida, multizona; con cable USB-C (el enfriamiento necesita alimentación). The Light Salon Boost Advanced: silicona flexible; batería recargable.

Σημειώσεις

Τι αξίζει να προσέξετε

Shark CryoGlow (FW312)

The Shark CryoGlow (FW312) uses 160+ (multizona) LEDs at 415 nm, 630 nm, 830 nm, in sessions of 8 min.

Dos estudios de 12 semanas realizados por la marca y divulgados públicamente — más datos publicados que la mayoría de sus rivales aquí. El enfriamiento del contorno de ojos es una función de confort, no un mecanismo lumínico.

The Light Salon Boost Advanced

The The Light Salon Boost Advanced uses 112 (56 × 633 nm · 56 × 830 nm) LEDs at 633 nm, 830 nm, in sessions of 10 min.

Publica tanto una dosis por sesión como un número de autorización de la FDA verificable — una transparencia poco habitual para una marca de consumo.

Συχνές ερωτήσεις

Απαντήσεις στις βασικές ερωτήσεις

What is the main specification difference between the Shark CryoGlow (FW312) and the The Light Salon Boost Advanced?

The Shark CryoGlow (FW312) emits at 415 nm, 630 nm, 830 nm. The The Light Salon Boost Advanced emits at 633 nm, 830 nm. Both cover red and near-infrared, the two ranges with the strongest published evidence for skin.

Only the The Light Salon Boost Advanced publishes an irradiance figure (~30 mW/cm² · ~18 J/cm² por sesión). The Shark CryoGlow (FW312) does not, so the dose the two masks deliver cannot be compared.

Which has more LEDs, the Shark CryoGlow (FW312) or the The Light Salon Boost Advanced?

The Shark CryoGlow (FW312) carries more diodes: 160 against 112. Diode count sets how evenly light reaches the face — a coverage figure, not an efficacy figure.

Are the Shark CryoGlow (FW312) and the The Light Salon Boost Advanced FDA cleared?

Shark CryoGlow (FW312): Autorización de la FDA (FDA clearance) · CE/UKCA. The Light Salon Boost Advanced: Autorización de la FDA (510(k)) K191629 · CE. Clearance under section 510(k) means the manufacturer showed substantial equivalence to a device already on the market and met safety standards — it is not FDA approval, and it is not evidence of efficacy.
