You can get it in a skin-clearing LED face mask, a hair-growth-stimulating cap, or a sauna blanket you can self-zip into like a burrito, and I’ve cheered on every new format. I just assumed we’d eventually run out of places for it. Oh, but reader, turns out there was one place left.
LELO, the Swedish luxury sex toy brand, just put red LEDs inside a G-spot vibrator called the MONA Spectra, and the brand says you can get the benefits of red-light therapy (collagen! circulation!) along with, you know, the main event. As someone who reads the ingredient list on a $14 serum before it gets anywhere near my face, I had questions. So yes, I tried the red-light therapy vibrator.
Here's my honest review, plus what the science actually says about red-light therapy for your vagina. At its core, the MONA Spectra is a G-spot vibrator. It borrows the curved silhouette of LELO's longtime MONA line, with a rounded tip angled toward the front wall of the vagina (aka G-spot territory) and soft, body-safe silicone wrapped in twisted ribs for extra texture.
It has 10 vibration settings and 16 intensity levels, and it's fully waterproof, so the bath is fair game. The twist (besides the literal twisted ribs) is a built-in array of red LEDs. Out of the box, it runs red light at 615 to 625 nanometers, and the LELO app unlocks near-infrared, blue and green light, plus extra vibration patterns.
If you've ever bought an LED face mask, you already know the pitch. Red light is thought to help your cells repair themselves, which is why it's become such a skin-care staple, and LELO is applying the same idea to vaginal tissue. LELO says regular use may support collagen and elastin, tissue elasticity, natural lubrication, and sensitivity.
The brand also says the LED array gives off a gentle warmth that can relax the pelvic floor muscles and increase blood flow, which, for the record, your body tends to appreciate during sex anyway. The pitch, basically, is folding a wellness habit into something you might already be doing. The short answer: it's promising, but it's early.
