This often includes the face, neck, décolletage, legs, hands and arms. After just one use, patients notice notice significant improvements in the complexion and clarity of the skin.

Light Treatment for Skin Damage

Optimized for light and darker skin, Lumecca increases the potential for clinicians to treat a variety of skin types and conditions such as benign pigmented epidermal lesions, including dyschromia, hyperpigmentation and ephelides (freckles), superficial vessels, skin texture and/or photodamage. This breakthrough treatment can reduce vascular lesions, rosacea, erythema of rosacea, angiomas and spider angiomas.

While a single treatment with Lumecca provides significant improvement for the majority of patients, including those whom have had previous treatments with other IPL devices, 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.

Lumecca can improve the appearance of:

  • Age spots (red/brown pigmentations)

  • Vascular lesions (spider veins and poikiloderma)
  • Rosacea (redness)
  • Freckles
  • Sun damage

Lumecca Q&A

IPL, or Intense Pulsed Light, is a light-based technology similar to BroadBand Light (BBL) that uses multiple wavelengths to treat various skin conditions. It is highly effective in addressing issues such as skin redness, rosacea, sun damage, small blood vessels, and pigmentation like brown and black spots, as well as age spots. Treatments with IPL are quick and help to improve both skin tone and texture. These procedures are very well tolerated and generally involve minimal to no downtime, making them a convenient option for skin rejuvenation.

Lumecca is an advanced form of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy, designed specifically for skin rejuvenation. It utilizes powerful light energy to treat and improve various skin conditions, such as age spots, sun damage, vascular lesions like spider veins, rosacea, and freckles. Lumecca is particularly noted for its efficiency, often delivering noticeable improvements in skin quality after just one to three sessions. This makes it an attractive option for those seeking quick and effective results in enhancing their skin’s appearance.

IPL, or Intense Pulsed Light, is widely used for photorejuvenation, a process that improves the appearance of photoaged skin. Lumecca, a popular IPL device, is highly favored for its efficiency and minimal downtime. It effectively reduces sunspots and freckles, diminishes hyperpigmentation, and rejuvenates the skin by stimulating collagen production. Due to its broad applicability and quick recovery period, IPL is also a popular choice for bridal facials, helping brides prepare their skin for their big day. This makes it an ideal option for anyone looking to achieve a radiant complexion quickly and effectively.

IPL treatments are versatile and effective, but their effectiveness and safety can vary significantly depending on the skin type. IPL is most effective on lighter skin tones, where the contrast between the pigment in skin lesions and the surrounding skin allows the light energy to be absorbed more effectively by the target areas without damaging the surrounding tissue. However, in heavily tanned or darker skin tones, IPL has limitations and carries a higher risk of adverse reactions, such as burns and pigmentation changes.

Many light-based devices for skin resurfacing are not appropriate for darker skin tones, such as those typical of African American individuals, due to the potential for adverse reactions. However, there are safe alternatives that can effectively improve facial imperfections in these skin types. Opus Plasma is one of the best and safest technologies available, achieving similar results without adverse reactions in darker skin. Additionally, chemical peels, when administered by a skilled aesthetician, can also be used to treat aged and damaged skin effectively in darker skin tones. These treatments offer reliable solutions for enhancing skin appearance while minimizing risks.

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is an exceptional technology for treating vascular lesions, especially effective on the face and other skin areas exposed to UV light. Spider telangiectasias, or small veins commonly found on the forehead, cheeks, and nose, are among the types most frequently addressed. This method is not only effective but also fast and convenient to administer, making it a preferred choice for reducing and minimizing the appearance of skin damage. Lumecca, a potent form of IPL, is particularly suited for safely removing spider veins on the face or body, enhancing skin clarity and texture with minimal downtime.

Like other energy-based treatments, IPL can be associated with some degree of discomfort, but it is generally well tolerated by those who undergo the procedure. Most people describe it as a feeling of warm rubber band. However, individuals with more tanned skin or darker skin tones might experience more discomfort due to the higher absorption rate of the light in their skin. This factor can also increase the risk of side effects, making it important to adjust the treatment parameters accordingly.

Your aesthetician would be able to advise you whether IPL is a good option for your need of facial photo-rejuvenation.

Generally, no special preparation is needed for an IPL photofacial, except it is important to avoid direct sunlight for a couple of weeks prior to treatment and to use effective sunscreen when outside. The procedure itself is quick and is very well tolerated by most individuals.

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy is a fast and convenient treatment. Individuals can expect immediate redness and swelling similar to a sunburn, which typically subsides within a few hours to a day. For those treated for brown spots or freckles, the areas will darken initially. Within a week, these spots usually begin to flake off and peel, revealing clearer, rejuvenated skin underneath.

The skin will be more sensitive to sunlight immediately following the procedure. It is crucial to avoid direct sun exposure and to protect the skin with a broad-spectrum sunscreen. This helps maintain the treatment’s results and prevents further skin damage.

Some people experience constant redness on their chest (Decollete area), back, or even face. Lumecca IPL, using Intense Pulsed Light technology, can safely and effectively treat this condition. The treatment improves redness and restores normal skin color, while also enhancing skin texture. Lumecca IPL is particularly popular for rejuvenating the hands, décolleté area, and the back of the neck, making it a versatile choice for addressing both cosmetic and dermatological concerns.
