What Areas Can Lumecca Treat?

Lumecca can be used on all areas of the body, with the most common treatment zones including:

  • Face

  • Neck

  • Décolletage

  • Hands

  • Arms

  • Legs

These areas are frequently exposed to the sun and show visible signs of damage that Lumecca can effectively address.

Are There Any Side Effects?

Most clients do not experience significant side effects. Any redness or warmth typically resolves within a few hours. Your skin may be more sensitive to sunlight after treatment, so it is important to avoid direct sun exposure and use sunscreen regularly to protect your results.

IPL Treatment Process

Preparing for Your Treatment

Before your treatment:

  • Avoid direct and excessive sun exposure for at least one month.

  • Avoid tanning prior to your appointment.

Your practitioner will provide additional pre-treatment guidelines to ensure your skin is prepared for the best possible results.

What to Expect

During your treatment, you will experience a bright flash of light and a sensation similar to a light snap from an elastic band. After treatment, it is normal to experience slight redness and warmth in the skin, which typically subsides within an hour.

Within 24–48 hours, you may notice darkening of pigmented spots, which will flake off over the following week, revealing clearer, more even-toned skin. When treating vascular lesions, veins may blanch and disappear, or change color and fade over a few days.

How Many Sessions?

Many clients notice improvement after just one session, with multiple sessions providing enhanced results. Your treatment plan will be customized based on:

  • Severity of skin damage

  • Skin type

  • Treatment goals (vascular vs. pigmentation)

  • Recommended energy settings

Frequently Asked Questions
WHAT IS LUMECCA?

Lumecca is the most powerful intense pulsed light (IPL) to treat pigmented and vascular lesions. After just one use, patients notice significant improvements in the complexion and clarity of the skin. Lumecca operates using photothermolysis, which provides a photofacial through the delivery of a comfortable light treatment.

In just 1-3 sessions Lumecca improves the appearance of:
• Age spots (red/brown pigmentations)
• Vascular lesions such as facial telangiectasias (spider veins) and poikiloderma
• Rosacea (redness)
• Freckles
• Sun damage

Lumecca can be used on all areas of the body. The most common areas of treatment are zones that are regularly exposed to the sun. This often includes the face, neck, décolletage, legs, hands and arms.

Avoid direct, excessive sun exposure or tanning one month prior to treatment.

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. Over the next 24-48 hours you may see a darkening of pigmented spots; in the week 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. 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.

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.
