LED THERAPY
What is LED Therapy?
LED light therapy, or light-emitting diode therapy, is a skin rejuvenation treatment that exposes skin to different wavelengths of visible light to address a variety of skin conditions and boost overall radiance.
LED light treatments most commonly harness red light (often paired with invisible near-infrared light) or blue light, though you may encounter yellow light or green light therapy as well. Each wavelength penetrates skin at a different depth, and treatments can use more than one color. While the treatment can be performed on its own, it’s more frequently used in conjunction with other treatments or as one component of a facial. Celluma light therapy safely and effectively rejuvenates skin and fights acne breakouts. It is FDA-cleared for the treatment of acne. There is no downtime and LED helps aid the recovery process by killing bacteria, reducing inflammation and promoting the healing process.
No prescriptions. No medications. No injections. No surgery. Just safe, natural wavelengths of effective, proven light energy!
Blue LED Light Therapy
Blue LED light therapy works by killing acne-causing bacteria at the source, deep beneath the skin’s surface. Blue LED light therapy emits specific, clinically-proven wavelengths of light to trigger an all-natural effect in human tissue, killing acne-causing bacteria, decreasing inflammation, and improving skin tone, texture and clarity from the inside out.

RED LED LIGHT THERAPY
When it comes to aging, a significant factor that leads to wrinkles, and fine lines are due to inadequate collagen levels. Collagen is the main structural protein found in your skin and other connective tissue. Collagen literally holds our bodies together. An easy way to remember what collagen does is to look at the Greek prefix ‘kolla’ which means glue.
Increased fibroblast proliferation is just one benefit of LED red light therapy. Fibroblasts make collagen fibers. The more and healthier fibroblasts we have in the skin, the more and better collagen fibers are made. And as we all know, collagen synthesis and maintenance is the bedrock of anti-aging.
Healthy collagen levels are what give us a glowing complexion, firm skin, strong nails, dense bones and healthy hair. It is also essential in keeping muscles, joints and tendons in healthy working order.
Proven red and near-infrared wavelengths are utilized in the Celluma LED light therapy device to combat the signs of aging. These specific wavelengths of light energy are clinically verified to enhance your body's natural ability to generate collagen and elastin by activating the fibroblast cells.
