Note from Jules at Sole Revival skin and body clinic

“For those of you asking about the benefit of pulsing, here’s the answer: The consensus in the scientific research agrees that delivering the light energy in a pulsed manner, as opposed to continuous wave delivery, allows the cells to absorb more of the energy over the treatment session.

The more energy that is absorbed the better. Good LASERs deliver the energy this way but very few LED devices have a pulsing option. It is more costly and sophisticated to include pulsing so most manufacturers skip it. The pulsing in the Celluma algorithm is proprietary. However, like all aspects of Celluma, it’s not just flickering lights, it’s science based.

Each wavelength is pulsing at a different frequency and is at a rate perceptible by the cells although not to the human eye. For example, the Celluma wavelengths are pulsing between 80 and 800 hertz (per second) depending on the wavelength.”
