Precision Light Therapy for Comprehensive Skin Rejuvenation

At Omaha Face and Body, Dr. John Harbison brings his dual board certification in Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery and Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery to the thoughtful integration of advanced aesthetic technologies. Celluma LED light therapy complements our comprehensive approach to facial rejuvenation by offering a science-backed, non-surgical treatment that works at the cellular level. With over two decades of experience in both surgical and non-surgical facial enhancement, Dr. Harbison recognizes that achieving optimal skin health requires addressing both form and function—and Celluma delivers therapeutic benefits that support your skin's natural regenerative capabilities.

What Is Celluma LED Light Therapy?

Celluma LED light therapy is a professional-grade photobiomodulation treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light energy to stimulate cellular activity and promote healing. The FDA-cleared Celluma device emits blue, red, and near-infrared light wavelengths that penetrate the skin at varying depths to target different skin concerns. The therapy works similarly to photosynthesis in plants—light energy is absorbed by the mitochondria and cell membranes, triggering a cascade of beneficial biochemical reactions. The Celluma device features a unique, flexible, shape-taking design that contours to the treatment area, ensuring consistent light delivery across the face, neck, or other targeted regions. Unlike rigid LED panels, Celluma's adaptable form allows for optimal proximity to the skin, maximizing the therapeutic benefits of each session.

Benefits of Celluma LED Light Therapy

Celluma LED light therapy in Omaha offers versatile benefits for multiple skin concerns, including:

Reduces acne and breakouts: Blue light wavelengths target and eliminate Propionibacterium acnes, the bacteria responsible for acne, while red light decreases inflammation associated with acne lesions.
Diminishes fine lines and wrinkles: Red and near-infrared light stimulate fibroblast cells to increase collagen and elastin production, improving skin firmness and reducing visible signs of aging.
Improves skin tone and texture: Enhanced cellular turnover reveals smoother, more radiant skin with improved clarity.
Accelerates healing: Photobiomodulation supports tissue repair and reduces inflammation, making it beneficial for post-procedure recovery.
Non-invasive with no downtime: Treatment is painless, requires no recovery period, and allows immediate return to normal activities.
Safe for all skin types: The gentle, non-ablative approach makes Celluma suitable for diverse skin tones and sensitivities.

What to Expect Before, During, and After Celluma Treatment

Consultation and Treatment Planning

Your Celluma journey begins with a thorough consultation at Omaha Face and Body. During this visit, we'll discuss your skin concerns, review your medical history, and examine your skin to develop a customized treatment plan. Celluma sessions can be performed as standalone treatments or incorporated into a broader facial rejuvenation program. We'll recommend a treatment schedule based on your specific goals—typically a series of sessions for optimal results.

The Celluma Treatment Session

Each Celluma session is comfortable and relaxing. Your skin will be cleansed to remove makeup, oils, and impurities. The flexible Celluma panel is then positioned over the treatment area, conforming to your facial contours to ensure optimal light delivery. You'll simply relax for approximately 30 minutes while the device emits its therapeutic light wavelengths. Most patients describe the experience as soothing and report no discomfort during treatment. There's no heat, no pain, and no downtime.

Recovery and Results Timeline

One of the most appealing aspects of Celluma is the complete absence of downtime. You can return to your regular activities immediately after your session, including applying makeup if desired. Many patients notice an immediate improvement in skin radiance and texture. However, the most significant benefits develop progressively as cellular regeneration occurs. For acne treatment, visible reduction in breakouts and inflammation typically becomes apparent after 2-4 weeks of consistent sessions. Anti-aging benefits, such as improved firmness and reduced fine lines, generally become noticeable after 4-8 weeks. Optimal results are achieved with a series of treatments—commonly twice weekly for 4-6 weeks—followed by maintenance sessions to preserve your skin's renewed vitality.

Frequently Asked Questions About Celluma LED Light Therapy

Can I use Celluma if I'm taking photosensitive medications?

Certain medications, including some antibiotics, acne treatments, and anti-inflammatory drugs, can increase your skin's sensitivity to light. If you're taking any photosensitive medications, please inform us during your consultation. We'll review your medication list and may recommend postponing treatment or adjusting your timing to ensure your safety and the effectiveness of the therapy.

Will Celluma interfere with my existing skincare routine or products?

Celluma complements most skincare routines beautifully. However, we recommend avoiding applying heavy creams, oils, or makeup immediately before treatment, as these can create a barrier that prevents optimal light penetration.

Can Celluma help with rosacea or sensitive skin conditions?

Yes, Celluma can be beneficial for rosacea and sensitive skin due to its anti-inflammatory properties. The red and near-infrared wavelengths help reduce redness and calm inflammation without the irritation that some topical treatments can cause.

Is there an age limit for Celluma treatments?

Celluma is safe for patients of all ages, from teenagers dealing with acne to mature adults seeking anti-aging benefits. For younger patients (under 18), we typically require parental consent. The treatment is particularly popular among teens struggling with acne because it's non-invasive, painless, and doesn't involve harsh chemicals or medications.

Can I do Celluma treatments at home, or do I need to come to the office?

While at-home LED devices are available, professional-grade Celluma treatments at Omaha Face and Body offer superior power, optimal wavelength combinations, and expert oversight. Dr. Harbison and our team can monitor your progress, adjust treatment parameters, and ensure you're achieving the best possible results.

How soon after other facial treatments can I have Celluma?

Celluma is excellent for post-procedure healing and can often be performed within 24-48 hours after treatments like microneedling, chemical peels, or laser resurfacing. In fact, Celluma's anti-inflammatory and healing properties make it an ideal complementary treatment to accelerate recovery. For injectable treatments like BOTOX or fillers, Celluma can typically be performed immediately afterward.
