How IPL Works
During treatment, pulses of light penetrate the skin and target unwanted pigment and blood vessels.
The light energy:
Breaks down pigmentation
Reduces redness
Stimulates collagen production
Encourages skin renewal
Improves overall skin clarity
Over time, treated pigmentation naturally rises to the skin's surface and flakes away.
What Is IPL?
FAQs
-
Lumecca can be used on all areas of the body. The most common aras of treatment are zones that are regularly exposed to the sun. This often includes the face, neck, decolletage, legs, hands, and arms.
-
During treatment there will be a bright flash of light from Lumecca, and a sensation on your skin that feels like a light snap from an elastic band. Redness and a slight warming of the skin are normal after treatment and usually subside within an hour.
-
24-48 hours post treatment you may see darkening of pigmented spots; in the weeks afterwards the pigmented lesions flake off, leading to an evening out of skin tone. After treating vascular lesions you may see the vein blanch and disappear or a color change in the vessel which dissipates after a few days.
-
An improved skin appearance can be noted after the first session, but most people will need multiple sessions to see even better results. Treatment regime depends on the severity of skin damage, skin type, type of treatment (vascular vs sun damage) and energy settings.
-
Sun damage and skin complexion results can be seen a few days after the first session. The skin will continue to look younger and be more brilliant over time with most visible results after 1-2 weeks. Having multiple photofacial sessions will improve the final result. For vascular treatments such as facial telangiectasias, results can be seen in up to 2 weeks.

Most patients do not experience any side effects and any skin reaction usually resolves within a few hours. Patients may find they are sensitive to sunlight immediately after treatment. It is recommended to avoid direct sunlight and tanning.
