The Good

  • Noticeable wrinkle reduction “I took so many photos trying to get one with wrinkles and no matter how hard I smiled, they just weren’t there… This is blowing my mind.” (24 upvotes) “I was smiling so hard to try to get the wrinkles to come up and they just wouldn’t.” (24 upvotes)
  • Improved healing after procedures “I’m 4 weeks post surgery… using a red light panel on my incisions… It’s made a noticeable improvement. Even my surgeon commented my healing was ‘ahead of the curve.’” (7 upvotes)
  • Effective pain relief “Anytime I use it for back pain it works. Anytime my knee acts up I use it and it feels better.” (7 upvotes)
  • Acne improvement “I use the blue light for any flare ups or unwanted acne and it works.” (7 upvotes)
  • Scar reduction “I have had both acne and trauma scars disappear… some were 30 years old!” (13 upvotes)

The Not So Good

  • High cost “Expensive though, so just be ready—it’s an investment.” (7 upvotes)
  • Inconvenient routine changes “I’ve tried before but always quit… throws off my whole routine not being able to use it with any facial products.” (8 upvotes)
  • Mixed expectations “I didn’t expect much from LED masks tbh.” (24 upvotes)
  • Unwanted hair growth “These things stimulate hair growth in everything… I guess it’s working? Just not what you expected.” (7 upvotes)
  • Heat or skin sensitivity “Some people get sensitivities to NIR… skin gets red, rashy, or burned feeling.” (7 upvotes)
  • High consistency is a requirement Most users emphasized daily or near-daily use to see results.


Comparison to Alternatives

Celluma Pro vs. Celluma Face

  • “The Pro has a pain setting the Face does not.” (8 upvotes)
  • “The Pro is much bigger… I can wrap it around my knee and it stands up on its own.” (8 upvotes)
  • Face model: smaller and requires detachable feet for positioning.

Celluma vs. Hooga

  • “Celluma is FDA-approved… Hooga is not. Hooga could be lying about its effectiveness.” (7 upvotes)
  • Still, some users buy Hooga for its value: “I ended up buying a Hooga anyway and I’m pretty happy with it.” (7 upvotes)

Celluma vs. LED Masks

  • “Most masks only have anti-aging mode… a panel will give infinitely better results.” (16–18 upvotes)
  • Panels considered more powerful and offer broader coverage.


Worth it?

  • High Price, But High Versatility
    • “Full price is like $1750.” (10 upvotes)
    • “I was going to sell the Celluma but gave it a real shot… I’m never selling it now.” (8 upvotes)
    • “I can treat my face, neck, chest, hands, and a sunburn… all in one go.” (16 upvotes)
  • Professional-Level Functionality “It can treat all areas of the body… Buying separate devices for each area adds up fast.” (16 upvotes)
  • Skepticism About Premium Pricing “Why would anyone buy this for $1750? A panel is cheaper, more powerful, and covers more area.” (23 upvotes)


Tips & Tricks From Users

  • Session length: “20–30 minutes a day, at least 3–4x/week.” (10 upvotes)
  • Multitasking: “I like that I can treat my face, neck, and chest all in one go.” (16 upvotes)
  • Create a ritual: “Dozing off to meditative music with a candle feels so nice… essential oils to set the mood.” (16 upvotes)
  • Consistency matters: “I’ve been using mine since April, not skipping a day… I’ll never go without it.” (15 upvotes)

The Verdict

Reddit’s overall sentiment toward the Celluma Pro is strongly positive, especially for wrinkle reduction, healing, pain management, and scar improvement. The biggest drawbacks are the high pricerequired consistency, and occasional side effects like heat sensitivity or hair growth. Users who stick with the routine often feel the results justify the investment.
