So what is light emitting diode (LED) therapy? Light therapy, also known as phototherapy or low-level light therapy, is the application of specific wavelengths of light energy to tissue. LED therapy obtains therapeutic benefits for a variety of skin conditions, including pain and hair restoration.
The absorbed energy is then used to improve cellular performance. This clinically validated technique is gaining greater and greater acceptance in main stream medicine by dermatologists and cosmetic surgeons as a non-invasive therapeutic modality for the treatment and healing of skin and wound conditions and by pain professionals for pain relief.
Phototherapy has been widely researched and is supported by thousands of peer-reviewed and published clinical research papers from prestigious institutions around the world. Other terms by which light therapy is referred to are photobiostimulation, photobiomodulation, photomedicine, LED light therapy, low-level light therapy (LLLT), red light therapy, and cold and soft LASER therapy. All terms are correct, have the same meaning, and are used to describe the delivery of light energy to treat a variety of medical and cosmetic conditions.
LED light therapy treatments are non-invasive, painless, require no recovery time, and can be used safely on all skin types.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is Celluma?
A: Celluma is a light therapy device for treating wrinkles, acne and pain conditions.
Q: How does it work?
A: Celluma provides energy that helps compromised cells regenerate naturally. (Macrophage cells exposed to red light therapy release cytokines that stimulate the production of growth factors, influencing the inflammatory process needed for healing and wound repair).
Q: How does it help with pain & skin conditions?
A: It increases the production of collagen and elastin, as well as increasing blood flow circulation.
Q: How long does it take to work?
A: Most people feel, or see, an improvement with one or two uses.
Q: But does it really work?
A: Yes! The technology embedded in Celluma was developed by NASA.
Q: Will I feel anything?
A: No, there is little or no sensation as Celluma helps tissue heal naturally from the inside out. Afterwards you should feel rejuvenation and experience less pain.
