Celluma® LIGHT THERAPY FOR ACNE TREATMENT
Acne is a stubborn medical skin condition that can affect the face, décolleté, back, shoulders and arms, and although it doesn't necessarily affect our physical health, it can certainly take a psychological toll.
Celluma® - Blue - Light Therapy acne treatment is a non-invasive treatment method to combat acne. The blue light kills bacteria responsible for causing acne, reduces sebum production and shrinks pores. The treatment is safe, has no known side effects and lasts around 30 minutes. A series of sessions a few weeks apart is recommended to achieve optimal results.
Acne occurs when an abundance of dead skin cells and a naturally produced oil called sebum clog tiny hair follicles or pores. As sebum production continues to build up under the plug in the skin's surface, it becomes infected with P. acne bacteria, leading to swelling, redness and inflammation.
What are common acne treatments?
If you suffer from acne, you have most likely tried many treatments. From over-the-counter cleansers, creams, masks and serums to even more extreme measures such as prescription antibiotics and even Accutane. Some people need a more specialised acne treatment ‘cocktail’ to clear the breakouts for good.
How can blue light therapy clear acne faster?
If you suffer from acne, you've probably heard of light therapy as a possible solution to your pimple problems. LED blue light therapy is the new wave of skin care for people who have tried other acne treatments but still aren't seeing the results they want.
Celluma® light therapy works by killing acne-causing bacteria at the source, deep below the skin's surface. As people across the country look for more natural, chemical-free alternatives to traditional medical solutions, light therapy is a perfect fit. When a particularly extreme acne breakout occurs, LED light therapy for acne is an excellent treatment option for fast results.
The blue CELLUMA® PDT light therapy acne treatment at LASER ÄSTHETIK Düsseldorf, Essen and in Dortmund emits specific, clinically proven wavelengths of light to trigger an all-natural effect in human tissue, killing acne-causing bacteria, reducing inflammation and improving skin tone, texture and clarity from the inside out. However, not all light therapy is the same.
Light therapy for acne - treatment with blue and red LED light is often used as an effective option for treating inflammatory acne. One study concluded that ‘...blue light and red light may act synergistically in improving acne’ by combining antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects, making phototherapy with blue and/or red light an effective and safe treatment for acne vulgaris.
