This is a fast way of solving the issues they have with their skin, and with this IPL skin treatment, healthy skin with a glow is just a treatment away!

The Lumecca device is also much faster, and sometimes only two treatments are sufficient, while other IPL equipment requires up to six treatments for satisfying results. 

When it comes to the results, they last way longer with Lumecca IPL Photofacial, so your skin is smooth, refreshed, clear, and glowing for a more extended time.

What Is Lumecca IPL Used For? 

There are different types of skin issues this device can be used for because it is painless and works on different skin types. By using light and heat, the undesirable cells are destroyed, and new, refreshed skin appears. 

Below you can find an extensive list of issues Lumecca can target and resolve:

  • Minimizing hyperpigmentation
  • Lightening of dark spots 
  • Freckles
  • Restoring smoothness and youthfulness of the skin
  • Reducing large pores
  • Elimination of redness
  • Elimination of acne scars and rosacea
  • Minimization of broken capillaries and other veins
  • Smoothing out wrinkles and fine lines
  • Decrease in sun damage
  • Eradication of age spots

It is said that the results of Lumecca IPL are visible immediately and that after three days from the treatment, the patient can see a significant difference in their skin condition. The optimal results come after a few weeks, but you have to be patient and let the redness and darkening from the treatment fade away and pass. 

The results hugely depend on the type of IPL skin treatment you choose. Still, for example, the reversal of sun damage and improvement of your general skin condition are two treatments that give visible results after a few days. If you are removing spider veins, the results will come after a couple of weeks. The number of needed sessions will be decided in consultation with your chosen doctor. 

The results and effects of Lumecca IPL can last from six months up to a year, and after that, patients work on maintaining their results by coming once or twice a year for additional treatments. 

What Does a Treatment Look Like? 

An IPL device (Intense Pulsed Light) is a method used for skin care where the light penetrates the layers of damaged skin. After the irregular skin cells take in the light, they are automatically destroyed, leaving the skin smooth, evened out, and fresh. 

During a Lumecca IPL treatment, the patient positions themselves in accordance with the part of the face they want to treat, and a cold gel is applied. Alongside the gel, a pair of protective sunglasses is given so that the patient can protect their eyesight from the flashing light. 

As the light is absorbed by the skin, there is no damage to the surrounding skin, and the broken particles from the damaged skin are flushed away naturally by our bodies. People mostly do not feel any pain during this treatment, and each treatment takes around 20 minutes. 

Keep in mind that this is a unique method, and only experts should perform this treatment to avoid any possible damage or injury. Also, if you are currently pregnant, you are sensitive to light, or have a skin condition, please consult your doctor before starting the Lumecca IPL Photofacial treatment. 

IPL Aftercare

When it comes to IPL aftercare, experts say that it is crucial to avoid direct sunlight and activities which include extensive heat, such as saunas or hot massages. Also, it might take a few days for the redness and dark spots to fade away, so do not feel frustrated if this takes a little longer than expected. Please avoid exfoliation, scratching, picking the dark areas, hot showers, baths, etc. Feel free to use aloe vera gels, cold cloths, and gentle moisturizers. Drink a lot of fluids because the skin gets moisturized from the inside as well.
