Light Therapy (PBM): The Science Behind It and Its Effect on Your Skin
From Light Energy to Cellular Renewal: How LED Light Therapy Works
With the aurosa LED Light Therapy Mask, you benefit from a broad spectrum of well-documented wavelengths, carefully calibrated to stimulate the skin’s natural processes — completely free from harmful UV rays.
Whether you want to reduce wrinkles, calm redness, minimize blemishes, or simply boost your skin’s overall vitality, you can enjoy an effective, comfortable, and safe treatment from home.
What Is Light?
Visible light is electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between 400 and 750 nm. The colors range from blue-violet (around 400 nm) to deep red (around 750 nm). Beyond 750 nm begins the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum. When the skin is exposed to LED light from your aurosa mask — emitting light in the range of 460 to 850 nm — the photons penetrate different layers of the skin depending on the color and wavelength.

Below 400 nm lies ultraviolet (UV) light, divided into UV-A, UV-B, and UV-C. In daylight, we are primarily exposed to UV-A (95%) and, to a lesser extent, UV-B (5%), while the most harmful UV-C rays are thankfully filtered out by the atmosphere.
Why Does LED Light Therapy Work?
Our skin cells contain light-sensitive receptors (chromophores) that respond to light energy (photons). Much like plants use light during photosynthesis, our cells can harness light photons to trigger various biological processes.
We already know the effects of sunlight on mood and circadian rhythm — and now research shows that specific wavelengths of artificial light can help address skin concerns through the cells’ positive response to this energy.
When the skin is exposed to LED light, the energy is converted within the cells, enhancing their ability to regenerate, strengthen the skin barrier, and balance inflammation. The key advantage is that LED light therapy provides only beneficial light — without any harmful UV exposure.
Antioxidants Are Activated
LED light therapy also activates the skin’s own defense system through a biological process called the Nrf2 signaling pathway. This mechanism functions like an “antioxidant factory,” boosting the skin’s resilience against external stressors such as UV exposure, pollution, and oxidative stress.
How to Use the Aurosa LED Light Therapy Mask
With just 10 minutes per session, 3–4 times a week, you can give your skin optimal conditions to increase collagen and elastin production while balancing inflammation — all without the risks associated with UV radiation.
The Aurosa LED Light Therapy Mask is designed to be both comfortable and effective, allowing you to enjoy professional-grade light therapy as a safe and soothing part of your skincare routine.
