LED Light Therapy
For acne, anti-aging, wound healing and pain management
Light Emitting Diode
LED
LED phototherapy is the application of light energy to tissue to obtain therapeutic benefits. The energy is used to improve cellular performance. Phototherapy is known for its healing and anti-inflammatory properties and has a variety of applications across many medical fields. Research has shown that phototherapy can: increase circulation, accelerate tissue repair, kill acne bacteria, decrease inflammation, improve skin tone, texture and clarity, reduce ease muscle and joint pain, stiffness, spasm and arthritis.
Wavelengths
Therapeutic Benefits
-
Blue lights - penetrates through the epidermis and is known to kill P. acnes bacteria
-
Red lights - penetrates into the dermal layer to enhance collagen and elastin production through photobiostimulation
-
Near-infrared (IR) - penetrates deepest and increases micro-circulation to help with tissue repair, decreases inflammation and aids in pain reduction. Studies has shown, near-infrared has an angiogenesis property.
-
Red + IR - when combined together, it can assist with up-regulation of ATP process with angiogenesis which speeds up wound healing
How does it work?
Photobiomodulation
-
The LED lights emits photons
-
Photons are absorbed in the mitochondria (the powerhouse of the cells) and cell membranes
-
This leads to an elevation of ATP (energy currency of the cells) synthesis
-
Enhanced energy metabolism occurs
Application
Varies depending on your needs
The Celluma PRO is flexible and can be used for your face, back, stomach, legs or arms​
Must be used on clean, dry skin as minerals in makeups and sunscreens will reflect the lights reducing the effectiveness
About Celluma
Celluma is a professional grade light therapy device that is FDA-cleared and medically CE-marked for dermal wound healing.
The device is embedded with red, blue and near-infrared lights derived from the same technology originally developed by NASA.
As the Celluma PRO is flexible, it can be placed easily and with comfort on your body. Studies has shown, the closer the lights are to your skin, the better the absorption of the emitted energy resulting in better results.
​
What will you feel?
A gentle warming sensation that is extremely relaxing. It is pain-free.
When using it for the face, you will sense the lights pulsating. The pulsating function optimise the cellular response which enhances the results. The pulse can be turned off, if you are very sensitive to lights.
LED Application time
15 to 30 minutes (everyone's skin will be different)
Recovery time
As the LED light therapy is a non-invasive treatment, no downtime required.
