Celluma anti-ageing LED light therapy in Highams Park, East London.
Award winning LED light therapy based on NASA research and technology.
At the Shockwave Therapy Clinic, we are proud to offer Celluma LED Light Therapy, an FDA-cleared, medical-grade treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to naturally improve cellular health. Whether you are looking to rejuvenate your complexion, clear persistent acne, or accelerate recovery from a musculoskeletal injury, Celluma provides a non-invasive, painless solution with proven clinical results.
NASA originally developed LED light therapy to help astronauts heal wounds and grow tissue in space. Celluma devices use red and blue LED light therapy to combat the body's natural aging process. They produce wavelengths of light energy that are clinically verified to enhance your body's natural ability to generate collagen and elastin by activating the fibroblast cells.
Celluma helps with the development of new capillaries (angiogenesis), increases blood flow and enhances Nitric Oxide production.
No medications. No injections. No surgery. Just safe, natural soundwaves, scientifically proven to be very effective for anti ageing.
How Does Celluma LED Therapy Work?
Celluma technology is based on Photobiomodulation. Much like plants use chlorophyll to convert sunlight into energy, our cells can absorb specific light particles (photons) and transform them into ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate)—the "fuel" that powers our cells.
By boosting cellular energy, Celluma stimulates the body’s natural repair mechanisms. We utilise three clinical-grade wavelengths:
-
Blue Light: Targets and eliminates P. acnes bacteria, making it an essential treatment for active acne and preventing future breakouts.
-
Red Light: Stimulates collagen and elastin production, reducing fine lines and improving skin firmness.
-
Near-Infrared Light: Penetrates deeper into the tissue to reduce inflammation, increase circulation, and alleviate muscle and joint pain.
The 3 Core Benefits of Clinical Light Therapy
1. Anti-Aging and Skin Rejuvenation
As we age, our collagen production slows down. Celluma’s red light therapy reaches the dermal layer to "jumpstart" fibroblasts.
-
Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
-
Improves skin texture, tone, and clarity.
-
Provides a natural, healthy "glow" without downtime.
2. Targeted Acne Treatment
Unlike harsh chemical creams, Celluma’s blue light destroys acne-causing bacteria at the source while the red light reduces the associated redness and inflammation. It is a gentle yet powerful alternative for those seeking clear skin.
3. Pain Management & Injury Recovery
Celluma is widely used by clinical professionals and athletes to manage pain. By increasing local circulation and reducing inflammation, it is highly effective for:
-
Arthritic joint pain.
-
Muscle spasms and stiffness.
-
Accelerating healing after Shockwave Therapy or Microneedling.
Why We Use Celluma as a "Booster" Treatment
One of the key advantages of having a dedicated Celluma page is highlighting how it works in harmony with our other clinical services:
-
Post-Microneedling: Using Celluma immediately after a Level 4 Microneedling session (IMedpen) significantly reduces "sunburn" redness and accelerates the healing process.
-
With Shockwave Therapy: For patients treating Plantar Fasciitis or Achilles Tendonitis, adding 30 minutes of Near-Infrared light can help settle inflammation between shockwave sessions.
Frequently Asked Questions Celluma
Is Celluma LED Therapy safe? Yes. Celluma is FDA-cleared and does not contain harmful UV rays. It is a "cold" light therapy, meaning there is no risk of burning or thermal damage to the skin.
How long is a typical session? A standard clinical session lasts 30 minutes. It is a deeply relaxing, "meditative" treatment where you simply lie back while the flexible Celluma panel contours to your body or face.
Is there any downtime? Absolutely none. You can return to your normal activities, apply makeup, or go back to work immediately after your session.
