See how your skin changes.
Three sensing sites. Three measurements. A clearer view of your skin over time.
30s
One skin reading
Before an LED session or on its own.
Three points on your face.
A sensor at the forehead and each cheek measures three signals: electrical response, humidity and skin temperature.

What you're measuring.
Each reading gives you three ways to follow changes in your skin. The numbers are most useful compared with your own baseline.
Hydration
A small electrical signal measures how your skin responds. Water affects that response, making it possible to follow hydration trends over time.[1]
An indirect reading, not an exact percentage of water in your skin.
Sensitivity
Skin surface temperature helps you follow changes in your sensitivity reading. Exercise and the environment can also affect temperature.[3]
Temperature alone cannot diagnose irritation, inflammation, allergies or a skin condition.
Fits before your light session.
Take a reading on its own, or choose an automatic reading before the LEDs turn on.
30 sec
Skin reading — electrical response, humidity and temperature.
10 min
LED session — 630 nm red and 850 nm near-infrared light.
The automatic reading is optional, and you can also measure without using the LEDs. Readings can't be taken while an LED session is running.
Compare your skin to itself.
Your baseline is your reference point. Repeated readings under similar conditions can reveal patterns that a single reading cannot.
A change after using a product doesn't, by itself, prove the product caused it.
- Clean, dry skinMeasure before skincare or makeup.
- Similar time and settingKeep your environment reasonably consistent.
- Skin at restAvoid measuring right after a shower or exercise.
- Consistent fitWear the mask as directed and stay still.
Water, products and temperature can influence skin measurements.[4]
Good to know.
How long does a reading take?
30 seconds. All three signals are captured during the same reading at each sensing site.
Does it use a camera?
No. The mask measures electrical response, humidity and temperature, rather than analysing photos.
Does skin tone affect readings?
Morphace does not use camera-based colour analysis. It reads electrical response, humidity and temperature. Performance across skin tones has not yet been clinically validated.
Do the LEDs have to be on?
No. Take a standalone reading, or choose to measure automatically before your LED session.
Can I take a reading during an LED session?
No. Readings can't be taken while the LEDs are on. The automatic reading runs before your session starts, and a standalone reading runs without the LEDs.
Can I measure with skincare on?
For more comparable results, measure before applying products, on clean, dry skin.
Are the scores absolute?
No. They're intended for tracking changes against your baseline. Strength is displayed as a relative percentage.
