Lumecca

What is Lumecca IPL?

Lumecca IPL is an advanced form of intense pulsed light therapy that targets melanin and hemoglobin in the skin to reduce the visibility of dark spots, redness, and other discolorations. By delivering a higher peak power and more precise wavelength than traditional IPL devices, Lumecca can achieve significant improvements in skin tone with fewer treatment sessions. Lumecca is suitable for a wide range of skin types and can effectively address pigmentation, rosacea, and even vascular lesions.

What are the differences between Lumecca IPL and traditional IPL?

Lumecca IPL stands out from traditional IPL treatments due to its enhanced energy delivery and shorter treatment times. Traditional IPL requires several sessions to achieve desired results, while Lumecca’s advanced technology allows for faster and more effective treatment, often showing noticeable improvements within one to two sessions.

Additionally, Lumecca IPL’s higher precision reduces the risk of skin irritation and makes it an ideal choice for those with specific skin concerns, including sun damage, freckles, and vascular lesions.

How many Lumecca treatments will I need?

Most patients notice a visible difference after just one session with Lumecca IPL. However, the number of treatments needed depends on individual goals and the condition of the skin. For optimal results, three to five sessions are commonly recommended. Your skincare specialist at SimplyCare can determine the right treatment plan to address each patient’s unique skin needs and aesthetic goals.

What areas can Lumecca treat?

Lumecca IPL can treat several areas of the body, including the face, neck, décolletage, hands, arms, and legs. This versatility makes it an excellent option for anyone looking to achieve a more even skin tone on multiple areas affected by sun damage, age spots, or broken capillaries.

What is recovery like after Lumecca IPL?

Recovery after a Lumecca IPL session is typically minimal, with most patients experiencing some mild redness, similar to a light sunburn, which fades within a few hours to a few days. Patients may also notice the darkening of pigmented spots before they gradually flake off, revealing smoother, clearer skin. It’s advisable to avoid sun exposure and wear sunscreen following treatment to protect the skin and ensure lasting results.
