What is Lumecca IPL?
Lumecca IPL is a high-tech, high-impact photo-rejuvenation system designed to remedy a range of blemishes and skin imperfections. The procedure works by beaming light onto the skin’s surface in short pulses to promote collagen production and rejuvenate skin from within. With multiple sessions spread over a treatment regimen, the laser pulses help fade spots, fine lines, redness, pores, broken capillaries, rosacea signs, and even under-eye circles. Safe and non-invasive, our Lumecca IPL procedure is a top-of-the-line skincare solution that corrects photo-aged skin and evens out tone and texture.

Frequently Asked Questions.
What is Lumecca IPL?
Lumecca IPL is the most powerful intense pulsed light (IPL) to treat pigmented and vascular lesions. Lumecca IPL operates using photothermolysis, which provides a photofacial through the delivery of a comfortable light treatment.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?
In just 1-3 sessions Lumecca IPL improves the appearance of:
- Age spots (red/brown pigmentations)
- Vascular lesions such as facial telangiectasias (spider veins) and poikiloderma
- Rosacea (redness)
- Freckles
- Sun damage
WHAT AREAS CAN BE TREATED?
Lumecca IPL can be used on all areas of the body. The most common treatment areas are zones regularly exposed to the sun. This often includes the face, neck, décolletage, legs, hands, and arms.
HOW MANY SESSIONS ARE RECOMMENDED?
An improved skin appearance can be noted after the first session. Multiple sessions
provide even better results. The Lumecca treatment regime depends on the severity of skin damage, skin type, and type of treatment (vascular versus sun damage).
Pre + Post Care Instructions

Do not tan the areas being treated for 4 weeks prior to treatment.
Do not use self-tanning products for 2 weeks prior to treatment.
Stop all Retin-A, Retinol, Renova, glycolics, bleaching creams, and exfoliants 3-4 days prior to treatment.
The treatment area must be free of any open sores, lesions or skin infections. For treatment of pigmented skin lesions, you should consult a specialist if there is a family or personal history of skin cancer or if you have these concerns.
Shave any hair present in the area to be treated. Men should shave the beard area twice in succession in order to ensure as close a shave as possible.
Gently wash the area to be treated, removing makeup,lotion, etc. Do not apply any creams, lotions or other products to the area except a topical anesthetic (if being used).
If you have elected to use a topical anesthetic, do so only after reviewing all cautions associated with its use. Apply and use as directed prior to arrival.
You cannot be pregnant or breast feeding to receive treatment.
If you have a history of oral herpes, you must pre-treat with an anti-viral three days before your scheduled visit.
You will have a mild sunburn sensation following treatment that is usually gone within a few hours. Skin redness, flaking, mild bruising and/or slight edema (swelling) is normal and may last a few days. Blistering is uncommon and when it occurs it is generally not serious. Pigmented areas may begin to flake after a few days.
Cold compresses (not ice) and recommended skin care products may be useful to reduce swelling or discomfort. You may takeover-the-counter pain or anti-inflammatory medication. Hydrocortisone(steroid) cream may decrease any itching or skin irritation. Antibiotic ointment (such as Neosporin) may be used if skin is broken, to prevent infection.
Your skin will be fragile for 2-3 days. Use gentle cleansers, but do not rub the skin vigorously and avoid hot water during this time. Skin moisturizers may be used immediately and makeup can be applied if the skin is not broken.
It is important to avoid sun exposure and tanning creams between treatments. Use SPF 30 or greater on the treatment area at all times.
The treatment area may be left open and uncovered. Do not scrub or exfoliate the area. Do not use any products on the treated area without first consulting our staff.
