What is LED Light Therapy?
LED light therapy, also known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or phototherapy, is a non-invasive skin treatment that uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to deliver specific wavelengths of light to the skin. These wavelengths of light are absorbed by cells in the skin, triggering a series of biological reactions that promote healing, reduce inflammation, and stimulate collagen production.
How Do LED Light Therapy Works?
LED light therapy uses light to trigger positive changes in the skin. When light enters the skin, it is absorbed by cells called fibroblasts. These cells produce collagen, a protein that gives skin its structure and elasticity. In addition to stimulating collagen production, LED light therapy also has anti-inflammatory properties. This can help to reduce redness and irritation and may also help to clear up acne.
The machine that we use is Celluma Pro Medical Grade Device.

LED light therapy is safe for most people, but it is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, or people with certain medical conditions.
