Science · How our devices work

How LED, microcurrent, EMS and RF work.

The technologies inside the six BEEA devices, in plain words: what each one does, how it feels, how long and how often, and who it is not for.

Skincare as a method, not a promise.

Inside the six BEEA devices are a handful of technologies: light, gentle electrical pulses, warmth, vibration and ions. Each one is a tool for a routine you repeat, with set minutes, a set rhythm and a clear order. They are cosmetic, not medical, and none of them is a quick fix.

LED light

Coloured light from small LEDs, from blue to red, plus near-infrared.

How it feels: Usually nothing at all. Sometimes a mild warmth or tingling.

With GLAM LED Mask, red is for a rested look, yellow for a calmer look and blue for blemish-prone skin, one colour per 15-minute session. AURA 4-in-1, REMS REVIVE, SCULPTA 4-in-1 and VITA Hair Comb build light into their modes. On FACE GYM 3-in-1, the LED head simply closes the workout.

AURA GLAM REMS REVIVE SCULPTA FACE GYM VITA

GLAM: 15 minutes, once a day, one colour. Other devices: built into the modes.

GLAM: red 625, yellow 590, blue 415 nm · AURA: yellow 590, red 630 nm, plus blue and green · REMS REVIVE: red 630, near-infrared 850 nm · SCULPTA: red 633, green 505, blue 417 nm · VITA: red 660, blue 465 nm

Low-level laser

Fine red laser light from eight small diodes, built into the VITA comb.

How it feels: Nothing. You do not feel the laser; you feel the massage.

In VITA, the laser runs together with LED light, EMS, ions and vibration in the ALL-IN-ONE mode. It is part of a scalp care routine on dry hair, alongside the products you already use.

VITA

ALL-IN-ONE: 5 minutes, then it switches off. 5 to 10 minutes a day.

VITA: 650 nm · 8 diodes

Microcurrent

A very gentle electrical current, softer than EMS.

How it feels: Very little: at most a light tingling.

On FACE GYM, the microcurrent tips are for the fine zones around the eye contour and lips, where EMS would be too strong: one point at a time, never on the eyelids. In AURA, microcurrent is one of six technologies in the serum-led face routine.

AURA FACE GYM

FACE GYM: 1 to 2 seconds per point, 3 to 4 times a week. AURA: within its routine.

EMS

Electrical pulses that make the muscles contract, like a short workout.

How it feels: You feel the muscles contract, like a workout.

EMS is the workout part of a routine: the PULSE mode in AURA, every mode in SCULPTA and the FACE GYM EMS head on the larger zones of the face, always with upward strokes. In VITA it comes as gentle pulses across the scalp. Where there are levels, start on the lowest.

AURA SCULPTA FACE GYM VITA

AURA PULSE: 5 to 10 min · SCULPTA: 6 min a day · FACE GYM: 3 to 4 times a week

FACE GYM: 10 to 150 Hz, 921 µA · VITA: 200 Hz · SCULPTA: 5 levels

Radiofrequency

Radiofrequency energy that you feel as a comfortable warmth.

How it feels: A comfortable warmth. Warm, never hot.

In REMS REVIVE, radiofrequency gives the warmth in three of the four modes, always on a conductive gel. Some modes pair it with red and near-infrared light, others with gentle electrical pulses. There are three intensity levels to choose from.

REMS REVIVE

6 to 8 minutes, 3 to 4 times a week, with 24 hours between sessions

REMS REVIVE: bipolar, 2 MHz · skin surface stays below 43 °C · 3 levels

Controlled warmth

A gentle warmth held at a set temperature, so it stays warm, not hot.

How it feels: Warm, not hot, from the first stroke.

In SCULPTA, controlled warmth joins the EMS pulses and red light in the core contour session. REMS REVIVE feels warm too, but there the warmth comes from radiofrequency.

SCULPTA REMS REVIVE

SCULPTA: 6 minutes, once a day, then 3 to 5 minutes on the neck

SCULPTA: 42 °C · REMS REVIVE: skin surface stays below 43 °C

Vibration

Fine, fast movement that you feel as a light massage.

How it feels: A light, relaxing massage.

In VITA, vibration and gentle pulses make up the MASSAGE mode, a relaxing few minutes for the scalp. AURA has sonic vibration and SCULPTA has vibration too, alongside their other technologies.

AURA SCULPTA VITA

VITA MASSAGE: 5 minutes, then it switches off; up to 10 minutes a day

Electroporation and electric microneedling

Two gentle electric technologies inside AURA, with no needles at all.

How it feels: At most a mild tingling. Brief redness can be normal.

Electroporation uses gentle electrical pulses on skin covered with a water-based serum or gel; oils block the current, so leave them out. Electric microneedling in AURA is needle-free: nothing pierces the skin. Both run inside AURA's modes, timed by the display.

AURA

Inside the AURA modes, timed by the display. Full routine: 15 to 30 minutes.

Negative ions

Tiny particles with a negative electrical charge, given off by the VITA comb.

How it feels: Nothing on their own: what you feel is the comb on your scalp.

In VITA, negative ions come with blue LED light in one mode, in slow passes along the hairline and crown, and with everything else in ALL-IN-ONE. It is a scalp care routine on dry hair, alongside the hair and scalp products you already use.

VITA

5 minutes per mode, 5 to 10 minutes a day, on dry hair

The numbers, if you want them.

You do not need any of this to use a BEEA device; it is here for anyone who likes to check the specifications.

Wavelength (nm)

It tells you the colour of the light: around 415 to 465 nm is blue, 505 nm green, 590 nm yellow, 625 to 660 nm red, and 850 nm is near-infrared, just beyond red.

Irradiance (mW/cm²)

How strong the light is on each square centimetre of skin: GLAM gives 12.93 mW/cm² in red, 5.41 in yellow and 29.39 in blue, REMS REVIVE 3.3 mW/cm².

Dose (J/cm²)

The total light in one session, strength multiplied by time: about 11.6 J/cm² red, 4.9 yellow and 26.5 blue in a 15-minute GLAM session.

Frequency (Hz, MHz)

How many times a second something repeats: EMS pulses run at 10 to 150 Hz in FACE GYM and 200 Hz in VITA, while radiofrequency runs at 2 MHz, two million times a second.

Temperature (°C)

SCULPTA's warmth is set at 42 °C and REMS REVIVE keeps the skin surface below 43 °C: warm, never hot.

Current (µA)

Microamperes are a very small unit of electrical current; the FACE GYM EMS head is listed at 921 µA.

Before you start.

These are the main reasons not to use each technology, taken from the device pages; when in doubt, ask your doctor before you start.

LED light and laser

Not forAnyone under 18, pregnancy or breastfeeding, epilepsy, photosensitivity, photosensitising medication (for example isotretinoin), a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device, active skin conditions, broken or irritated skin, after botox, fillers or cosmetic procedures

NoteNever look straight into the LEDs or the laser. For GLAM, follow the eye protection guidance in the manual; with metal implants in the face, ask your doctor first.

Microcurrent and EMS

Not forAnyone under 18, pregnancy or breastfeeding, a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device, metal implants in the area you use it on, epilepsy, active skin conditions, broken or irritated skin, after botox, fillers or cosmetic procedures

NoteStart on the lowest level. Never on the eyelids; with FACE GYM, upward strokes only and never on the neck.

Electroporation and electric microneedling

NoteNever on oils: they block the current. Keep away from the eyelids, the lips and the thyroid area at the front of the neck.

Radiofrequency

Not forAnyone under 18, pregnancy or breastfeeding, a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device, metal or dental implants in the area you use it on, epilepsy, photosensitivity or photosensitising medication, active skin conditions, broken or irritated skin, after botox, fillers or cosmetic procedures

NoteAlways on conductive gel, never over the thyroid line, with 24 hours between sessions. Prone to pigment spots or melasma? Ask your doctor before the warmth modes.

Controlled warmth

Not forAnyone under 18, pregnancy or breastfeeding, a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device, metal implants in the area you use it on, active skin conditions, broken or irritated skin, after botox, fillers or cosmetic procedures

NoteYou need to be able to feel the warmth: if your skin is less sensitive to heat than usual, take extra care. With a thyroid condition, leave out the neck and ask your doctor.

Vibration and negative ions

Not forAnyone under 18, pregnancy or breastfeeding, a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device, metal implants in the area you use it on, epilepsy, photosensitivity, active skin conditions, broken or irritated skin or scalp, after cosmetic procedures

NoteThey always come with other technologies, so the full list for that device applies. VITA goes on dry hair, never on wet hair.

Always follow the user manual in the box: it is the full reference for every device.
