Lumecca

Lumecca uses Intense Pulsed Light technology to deliver powerful light energy that targets pigment and hemoglobin in the skin. The light energy is converted to heat, which breaks down pigmented cells and constricts blood vessels. The body then naturally removes these damaged cells, revealing clearer, more even-toned skin underneath.

How many Lumecca treatments are needed depends on your specific concerns and skin condition. Most patients achieve significant improvement after just 1-2 sessions, compared to 4-6 sessions with traditional IPL treatments. Your provider will create a personalised treatment plan during your consultation.

You’ll likely notice initial results within 24-48 hours as pigmented spots darken before flaking off. Vascular lesions may appear to fade immediately. Optimal results typically develop over 2-3 weeks following treatment as your skin completes its renewal process. Lumecca IPL treatment before and after results show dramatic improvements in skin tone and clarity.

One of Lumecca’s major advantages is minimal downtime. Most patients experience slight redness for a few hours after treatment. Pigmented spots will darken for 3-7 days before naturally exfoliating. You can typically return to normal activities immediately, though sun protection is essential.

Lumecca is safest and most effective for Fitzpatrick skin types I-IV (fair to medium/olive complexions). Those with darker skin tones (types V-VI) may be at higher risk for pigmentation changes and should consult with a specialist to determine if Lumecca is appropriate or if alternative treatments would be safer.

Lumecca can treat virtually any area with sun damage, pigmentation issues, or vascular concerns. The most common treatment areas include the face, neck, décolletage, hands, arms, legs, and torso. Lumecca IPL for age spots and sun damage is particularly effective on commonly exposed areas like the face, hands, and chest.

Yes, Lumecca works well as part of a comprehensive skin rejuvenation plan. It can be effectively combined with treatments like microneedling, chemical peels, and certain laser procedures for enhanced results. Your provider will recommend the optimal treatment combination based on your specific concerns and goals.

With proper sun protection and skincare, Lumecca results can last for years. However, new sun damage and the natural aging process can cause new pigmentation and vascular issues to develop over time. Many patients choose to have maintenance treatments every 6-12 months to preserve and enhance their results.
