Lumecca IPL is a treatment that uses intense pulsed light (IPL) to selectively target and treat skin conditions such as pigmentations, superficial vessels, and photodamage through selective photothermolysis to improve skin tone and texture. It is considered a more advanced and effective alternative to traditional IPL treatments.

HOW DOES LUMECCA IPL WORK?

FAQ'S

Lumecca can be used on any area of the body. The most common areas of treatment are zones that are regularly exposed to the sun. This often includes the face, neck, décolletage, hands, arms, and legs. 

Avoid direct, excessive sun exposure, tanning, and self-tanners one month prior to treatment.

During treatment there will be a bright flash of light from the Lumecca that feels like a light elastic sensation. Redness and a slight warming of the skin are normal after treatment and usually subsides within an hour. Over the next 24-48 hours you may see a darkening of pigmented spots; in the week afterwards, the pigmented lesions flake off, leading to an evening out of skin tone. After treating vascular lesions, you may see the vein blanch and disappear or a color change in the vessel which dissipates after a few days.

Improvement in skin appearance can be noted after the first session. Multiple sessions provide even better results.  Treatment regime depends on the severity of skin damage, skin type, type of treatment (vascular vs sun damage) and energy settings.

Sun damage and skin complexion results can be seen a few days after the first session.  The skin will continue to look younger and more brilliant over time with most visible results after 1-2 weeks. Having multiple photo facial sessions will improve the final result. For vascular treatments such as facial telangiectasias, results can be seen in up to 2 weeks.

Most patients do not experience any side effects, and any skin reaction usually resolves within a few hours.  Patients may find they are sensitive to sunlight immediately after treatment.  It is recommended to avoid direct sunlight and tanning.
