How It Works

How Red Light Therapy Works – The Science Explained

Red light therapy (RLT), also known as photobiomodulation, is a safe, non-invasive treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular repair, reduce inflammation, and promote healing. At Aura Sweden, we harness this advanced technology in our FDA-cleared devices to deliver real, visible results for skin rejuvenation, pain relief, and overall wellness.

The Science Behind Red Light Therapy

Red light therapy works at the cellular level by targeting the mitochondria — the powerhouses of your cells. When red and near-infrared light photons are absorbed, they trigger several beneficial biological responses:

• Increases ATP (cellular energy) production by up to 200%
• Reduces oxidative stress and inflammation
• Improves blood circulation and oxygen delivery
• Stimulates collagen and elastin production
• Accelerates tissue repair and regeneration

Unlike harmful UV light, therapeutic red and near-infrared light (630–850nm) is completely safe and does not damage the skin.

Our 6 Clinically Proven Wavelengths

Aura Sweden devices use a full-spectrum approach with six powerful wavelengths for comprehensive skincare and wellness benefits:

• Red Light (630nm): Boosts collagen production, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, and improves skin firmness.
• Blue Light (465nm): Kills acne-causing bacteria, reduces breakouts, and controls oil production.
• Green Light (528nm): Fades hyperpigmentation, reduces redness, and promotes an even skin tone.
• Purple Light (405nm): Combines red and blue benefits for enhanced skin repair, anti-aging, and acne control.
• Amber Light (590nm): Calms inflammation, soothes sensitive skin, and brightens dull complexion.
• Near-Infrared (850nm): Penetrates deepest to support muscle recovery, reduce pain, improve circulation, and enhance skin vitality.

This complete 6-wavelength system allows for more targeted and effective treatments compared to standard 2 or 3-wavelength devices.
