Lumecca

What is Lumecca IPL?

Lumecca IPL is an advanced and innovative intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy used for various skin concerns and conditions. It utilizes high-powered, broad-spectrum light to target and treat a range of skin issues effectively.

What are the benefits?

Lumecca IPL offers a multitude of benefits, including the reduction of pigmentation irregularities such as sunspots, age spots, freckles, and vascular lesions. It also improves skin texture, reduces redness, and stimulates collagen production, resulting in smoother, more youthful-looking skin.

Is it safe?

Yes, Lumecca IPL is a safe and FDA-approved procedure when performed by a qualified and experienced practitioner. The treatment is non-invasive and has been extensively studied for its efficacy and safety profile.

Are there any side effects?

Side effects with Lumecca IPL are generally minimal and temporary. Some individuals may experience slight redness or mild swelling in the treated area immediately after the procedure, but these effects typically subside within a few hours to a few days.

How regularly will I need treatments?

The recommended treatment regimen typically consists of a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart, depending on the specific skin concern being addressed and individual response to treatment.

We will assess your needs and develop a customised treatment plan for you.

Does it hurt?

Most patients describe the sensation during Lumecca treatment as a mild stinging or snapping feeling, similar to the snapping of a rubber band against the skin. However, discomfort levels vary
among individuals and can be managed with topical numbing cream if necessary.

Who can have this treatment?

Lumecca is suitable for individuals looking to improve the appearance of sun-damaged skin, pigmentation irregularities, vascular lesions, and overall skin tone and texture.

However, it may not be suitable for individuals with certain medical conditions or skin types, so it's essential to consult with a qualified practitioner to determine if Lumecca is right for you.

Aftercare

After Lumecca treatment, it's important to protect your skin from direct sun exposure and wear sunscreen regularly to maintain and enhance the results. We can also recommend specific skincare products to support and prolong the benefits of the treatment.

Downtime

One of the significant advantages of Lumecca is that it typically involves minimal downtime.

Most patients can resume their normal activities immediately after treatment, although some may experience temporary redness or swelling that resolves within a few hours to a few days.

Makeup can usually be applied shortly after treatment to conceal any redness if desired.
