Meet MyDose™, CurrentBody's personalised LED light therapy technology. Use this app to create and send custom LED treatments to your CurrentBody device with MyDose™ technology. YOUR DOSE, YOUR RESULTS Every skin concern is different. MyDose™ puts you in control of your LED therapy. Choose from 4 clinician-approved preset treatments, each built around a specific skin goal: Advanced Anti-Ageing, Advanced-Clearing, Complexion Corrector, and Balance & Brighten. Each preset includes a full wavelength profile and a clear breakdown of what it targets, so you always know exactly what your skin is receiving and what it targets. 6 CLINICALLY PROVEN WAVELENGTHS MyDose™ gives you LED-by-LED control across 6 wavelengths, each targeting the skin at a different depth: Red 633nm, Blue 415nm, Green 532nm, Yellow 590nm, Near-infrared 830nm, and Deep near-infrared 1072nm. BUILD A TREATMENT THAT'S UNIQUELY YOURS The MyDose™ custom treatment builder goes further. Choose exactly which lights activate across your device, target specific zones and save your treatment. Once sent to your device, your custom treatments are stored on it, ready to run anytime, with or without the app. Use the app whenever you want to create something new. SHARE YOUR DOSE Found a dose that works for you? Share your unique MyDose™ treatment code with others: friends, family or your wider CurrentBody community so that they can experience your personalised dose for themselves. DESIGNED FOR CURRENTBODY MYDOSE™ DEVICES This app is used to create and send custom treatments to CurrentBody devices with MyDose™ technology. Preset treatments and previously saved custom modes can also be used directly via the device controller. Check the CurrentBody website for the full range of compatible devices. WHY THE RIGHT LED DOSE MATTERS Not all LED therapy is equal. LED dose response is biphasic, meaning precision matters: it can be the difference between a treatment that works and one that doesn't. The CurrentBody app calculates your optimal dose so every session delivers exactly the right amount of light for your skin. The light you choose is exactly what your skin receives, at exactly the right dose.
