Lumecca treatments are an advanced form of intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy designed to improve the appearance of the skin. This non-invasive procedure targets pigmented and vascular lesions, such as age spots, sun damage, freckles, rosacea, and spider veins. Lumecca emits a powerful light that penetrates the skin, selectively targeting and breaking down pigmented cells and blood vessels. The treatment promotes collagen production, leading to a clearer, smoother, and more youthful complexion. It is suitable for most skin types, involves minimal downtime, and typically requires a series of sessions for optimal results.

Lumecca is a premium Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment developed by InMode. It delivers energy in the 500–600 nm range—up to three times more powerful than traditional IPL devices. This allows for highly effective skin rejuvenation, often requiring just 1–3 sessions compared to 4–6 for standard IPL

FAQs

  • Many clients see visible improvement after just one session; optimal results typically achieved in 1–3 treatments

    Common (Temporary) Side Effects:

    • Mild redness or warmth (like a sunburn) lasting a few hours

    • Swelling around treated areas, usually subsides within 24 hours

    • Slight sensitivity to heat or touch for a day or two

    Less Common:

    • Mild blistering or crusting (especially on sensitive or overexposed skin)

    • Temporary changes in skin color (hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation)

    • Bruising, especially when vascular lesions are treated

    Rare (When improperly performed or contraindicated):

    • Scarring

  • To ensure the safest and most effective results, please follow these guidelines before your Lumecca treatment:

    • Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds (including self-tanners).

    • Discontinue tanning products or bronzers on the treatment area.

    • No waxing, threading, or chemical peels in the area being treated.

    ✅ 5–7 Days Before Treatment:

    • Stop using retinoids (Retin-A), alpha hydroxy acids (AHA), beta hydroxy acids (BHA), and exfoliating products.

    • Avoid any photosensitizing medications or supplements (check with your provider).

    ✅ 24–48 Hours Before Treatment:

    • Shave the area if necessary (if treating areas like the face or body with hair).

    • Hydrate well and moisturize your skin.

    • Stay out of direct sunlight.

    • Let us know if you have any new medications, illness, or cold sores.

  • To protect your skin and get the best results from your Lumecca treatment, please follow these post-care instructions carefully:

    Immediately After Treatment:

    • Mild redness or warmth (like a sunburn) is normal and typically resolves within a few hours.

    • You may notice darkening of pigmentation or sun spots—this is expected and they will flake off over the next 7–10 days.

    • Swelling or sensitivity may occur, especially in areas with vascular treatment.

    Do’s:

    ✅ Apply a gentle moisturizer to soothe the skin.
    ✅ Use a cold compress if needed for comfort (no ice directly on skin).
