Celluma LED Light Therapy

Revitalize your skin with light therapy

At Water and Leaf Skincare, we are proud to offer Celluma LED Light Therapy, an innovative, FDA-approved treatment that utilizes specific wavelengths of light to treat acne and improve skin health. 

Located in Columbia and serving the Ellicott City, Elkridge, and Baltimore area, Water and Leaf invites you to explore how Celluma can help you feel more confident in your skin.

What is Celluma Light Therapy?

Celluma Light Therapy is an innovative type of low-level light therapy. It employs light-emitting diode (LED) technology to enhance skin health and treat various skin conditions. By emitting specific wavelengths of light, it stimulates the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the energy currency of cells, triggering natural biological processes that help to repair and rejuvenate the skin.

This therapy is particularly beneficial for individuals battling acne. It penetrates the skin to target acne-causing bacteria, reducing inflammation, and preventing future breakouts. Additionally, it aids in healing existing blemishes and helps to regulate oil production, providing a comprehensive solution for acne management.

Benefits of Celluma

  • Treats all forms of acne

  • Calms inflammation caused by acne bacteria

  • Speeds healing of existing blemishes and prevents new ones from forming

  • Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

  • Improves skin texture

  • Supports wound healing

What Can Celluma Treat?

From skin rejuvenation to pain relief, Celluma LED light therapy is versatile in its application. It is beneficial for a variety of skin types and conditions including acne, existing blemishes, fine lines and uneven skin texture. By stimulating collagen and elastin production, it provides anti-aging benefits.

Ideal Candidates for Celluma

  • Good candidates for Celluma light therapy are teenagers and adults with inflammatory or noninflammatory acne of any severity. It’s also useful for people looking to improve their skin texture.

  • Although Celluma is a gentle treatment that’s safe for most people, it’s not recommended for people who take medications that cause photosensitivity. Discuss your medical history with your provider to ensure your candidacy for this treatment.

What to Expect from Your Celluma Session

  • Your experience with Celluma LED Light Therapy at Water and Leaf Skincare begins with an initial consultation. This crucial first step involves a thorough discussion about your medical history, current skincare routine and aesthetic goals. Understanding your unique needs and concerns helps us tailor the therapy to achieve the best possible results.

  • If you’re a suitable candidate for Celluma, we then schedule your treatment session. The procedure is completely non-invasive and typically lasts for approximately 30 minutes. During this time, you’ll rest comfortably while the LED device is positioned over the target area. You’ll feel a pleasant warming sensation as a combination of red and blue light energy penetrates your skin.

  • Following a Celluma light therapy session, you may notice some immediate improvements in your skin’s texture and tone. However, the most significant results typically appear over time as your skin responds to the light therapy, producing more collagen and elastin. A series of sessions is usually recommended for optimal results.

 

Recovery and Aftercare

After your treatment, you can immediately return to your normal routine. Celluma therapy requires no downtime and is generally well-tolerated. Any potential side effects, such as slight redness or warmth at the treatment site, are temporary and subside shortly after the session.

For most patients, we recommend a series of Celluma treatments. Our team will provide you with a detailed treatment plan, including aftercare instructions and suggestions for maintaining your skin health. It’s our priority to ensure you feel confident and well-informed throughout the entire process.

 

FAQs

Does Celluma have the same effect as an infrared sauna?

While both Celluma and infrared saunas use light energy for therapeutic purposes, they are not the same. Celluma uses specific wavelengths of LED light to stimulate cellular processes and treat a variety of skin conditions, whereas infrared saunas use heat generated by infrared light to promote relaxation, detoxification, and improved circulation.

Who shouldn’t get Celluma?

Although Celluma is safe and non-invasive, it may not be suitable for everyone. It’s not recommended for individuals who are pregnant, those with light-triggered health conditions, or individuals taking certain medications that make the skin sensitive to light. Always consult with a healthcare professional to determine if Celluma is right for you.

Does Celluma have other uses?

Yes, beyond cosmetic applications, Celluma LED Light Therapy also has wellness and therapeutic uses. It has been shown to effectively relieve muscle and joint pain, increase circulation, and accelerate tissue repair. It’s a versatile treatment option that supports overall body health.
