nuSHINE uses photobiomodulation — the process of delivering specific wavelengths of light energy into the skin to stimulate cellular repair, collagen production, and biological processes at the tissue level. As skin cells absorb photons from the LED panel, they activate natural repair pathways that improve skin function, accelerate healing, reduce inflammation, and boost radiance — without heat, pain, or downtime.
The device emits seven distinct light wavelengths, each targeting different skin concerns and tissue depths. Practitioners select the appropriate color mode based on the patient's skin condition and treatment goals. Sessions run 15 to 30 minutes, during which the arched LED panel is positioned over the treatment area without making direct contact. The 360-degree swivel arm allows precise positioning for face, neck, décolleté, or body applications.
nuSHINE can be used as a standalone treatment or stacked alongside other procedures such as facials, laser treatments, hydradermabrasion, or 5-ALA photodynamic therapy (PDT) to enhance and prolong results. It is particularly effective as a post-procedure calming and recovery treatment, helping reduce post-treatment redness and accelerate skin repair after more intensive procedures.
The seven light modes and their primary functions are:
• Purple (400-430nm) — Combines red and blue light; heals inflammatory acne, prevents new breakouts, reduces scarring, and supports wound healing
• Blue (430-450nm) — Kills P. acnes bacteria, reduces active acne and inflammation, and controls excess oil production
• Light Blue (480-520nm) — Supports mental relaxation, helps rough and tired-looking skin, and promotes skin repair
• Yellow (570-600nm) — Calms redness, irritation, and inflammation; strengthens the skin barrier and boosts radiance
• Orange (600-630nm) — Boosts oxygen and blood flow, stimulates thyroid function, and addresses fatigue-related dullness
• Red (630-780nm) — Stimulates collagen and elastin production for firmer skin, reduces inflammation, speeds healing, and enhances overall skin glow
• Mixed/White (400-700nm) — Full-spectrum mode that penetrates deep into tissue to supercharge metabolism, healing, and overall skin function
