About LUMECCA™ SKIN REJUVENATION
Lumecca™ is an intense pulsed light (IPL) treatment used for a wide variety of skin conditions that helps improve skin tone and decrease hyperpigmentation. Ageing, sun spots, rosacea, vascular lesions, and even acne are some of the many skin problems Lumecca™ is designed to treat.
The treatment involves sending beams of light and heat into your skin tissue, which breaks up discoloration on your face by constricting facial veins close to the surface of the skin. Once the skin is heated, the treated area will rid itself of the unwanted cells while also boosting collagen production. With increase collagen levels, your skin will become remodeled to make it look and feel stronger and healthier.

With a variety of IPL treatments on the market, Lumecca™ is proven to be more effective, requiring only 1-2 treatments to achieve your desired results. Comparing this to other IPL devices, you’ll typically have to need 6-8 treatments to get the same results. Many patients are looking into Lumecca™ for the following benefits:

LUMECCA REVIEWS
Where can Lumecca™ be used?
Lumecca™ is safe to be used all over the body, however, patients most often target areas of the skin that are regularly exposed to the sun. This includes the face, neck, chest, legs, hands, and arms.
Lumecca™ is considered a photofacial, meaning it targets skin damage that is caused or exacerbated by the sun. Through intentional or unintentional tanning and exposure to UVA and UVB rays, photodamage will occur over time—resulting in sun spots, fine lines, and other skin irregularities like large pores. As we age, these problems can become more visible and may require aesthetic treatments.
This treatment is safe for patients with skin types 1, 2 and 3. For lighter and darker skin types, you can rely on Lumecca™‘s advanced technology to treat various skin areas and conditions with its wide range of wavelengths that adjust to you skin’s natural pigmentation better than traditional IPL. Our team of highly trained professionals will ensure that your treatment is performed safely and effectively.

How Does Lumecca™ work?
Lumecca™ treatments are safe, comfortable, and convenient. Using IPL technology, Lumecca™ delivers up to 3 times more energy in the 500-600 nm range which improves efficacy for pigmented and vascular lesions. This translates into more effective treatments with fewer overall sessions, saving you the time and money.
During the treatment, a cool gel will be applied to the targeted area. The handheld device will then be moved across the skin, sending warm flashes of the laser to the affected area similar to the sensation of an elastic band lightly flicking the skin. Depending on the size of the problem zone, one session should take anywhere around an hour.
Post-treatment, you may feel some slight tenderness similar to a sunburn, but no downtime is required. Most patients have reported little to no discomfort after their Lumecca™ treatment. Over the following 24-48 hours after your session, you may see a darkening of the pigmented spots. Over the course of about a week, these pigmented spots will flake off, leaving the skin underneath even and smooth. If a vascular lesion is treated in your session, you may see the vein blanch and disappear or a slight colour change in the vessel which will dissipate after the next few days.
Many patients notice an immediate improvement in their skin after just one treatment, with optimal results typically seen after 4-6 weeks after the final session. Each treatment thereafter will take place as needed with 4-6 in-between each session.
To be considered a good candidate for Lumecca™ you must:
- Be in good overall health.
- Not be pregnant.
- Not be taking Accutane.
- Not have an active tan, or have recently applied a sunless tanning cream.

FAQ's About Lumecca™
Lumecca™, a revolutionary intense pulsed light (IPL) system, provides up to 3X more energy in the 500-600 nm range, enhancing efficacy for vascular and pigmented lesions. It’s designed for clinicians to address a range of lesions in fewer sessions. For aesthetics, it enhances skin tone and reduces hyperpigmentation caused by sun exposure, aging, rosacea, and acne, resulting in a more even and radiant complexion post-treatment.
Lumecca™ treatment costs vary based on the targeted body area and the number of sessions needed. Generally, prices range from $200 per session to $1,000 for packages. For accurate pricing, contact us today to schedule your FREE Consultation & Assessment!
Typically, results are long-lasting and can be maintained for years. Although pigment may return for some clients, the reappearance of hyperpigmentation or vascular lesions is gradual.
Expect a bright flash of light during your Lumecca™ IPL treatment, and a sensation similar to a light rubber band snap. Redness and skin warmth are common afterward but typically diminish within an hour. The treatment is generally well-tolerated by most patients.
First, the treated area is cleansed. An intense light is applied in a series of gentle pulses over the treatment area. As the pulse of light is delivered, the sensation is similar to rubber band snap. This light penetrates the skin without harm and is absorbed by the abnormally dilated vessels or pigmentation. The heat causes damage to the vessel of lesion, prompting the body’s healing process. After treatment, sunscreen is applied, and sensitive skin may benefit from a cool compress.
Visible improvements in complexion and sun damage may appear within days after treatment, with the most significant changes typically noticed between 14 to 21 days post-treatment. Optimal results are achieved after completing 3-6 sessions. Skin enhancement continues for up to three months following the final treatment.
Lumecca™ IPL treatment is simple and time efficient, typically taking 15-30 minutes.
After a Lumecca™ treatment, there’s minimal recovery time. Most patients experience no side effects, with any skin reaction typically resolving within hours. However, sensitivity to sunlight may occur immediately after, so it’s advised to avoid direct sunlight and tanning.
Lumecca™ treatment provides permanent results, but the skin remains vulnerable to further sun damage. It’s advisable to schedule 1-2 maintenance sessions per year after the initial treatment.
