Treatment & Technology

What is Lumecca IPL?

Lumecca is a high-powered Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment designed to improve skin tone and clarity by targeting pigmentation and vascular concerns.

It effectively treats sun damage, age spots, freckles, redness, and visible vessels while enhancing overall brightness and skin quality. Treatments are fast, comfortable, and require minimal downtime, so you can return to your day right away.

How it works
Learn more +

Lumecca delivers high-intensity pulsed light energy that is selectively absorbed by pigmented lesions and vascular irregularities, converting it into controlled heat that breaks down unwanted pigment and targets visible vessels for the body to clear naturally.

It delivers significantly higher energy in the 500–600 nm range compared to traditional IPL, allowing for more effective treatment of sun damage, age spots, freckles, and redness — often in fewer sessions — while integrated cooling enhances comfort and protects surrounding skin.

Recovery and Aftercare

Right away: resume normal activities; light makeup is usually fine the same or next day.

Normal response: mild redness or warmth may appear and typically settles within hours.

Pigment response: darkening of sun spots or freckles may occur over the first few days and will naturally fade or flake off.

Hydration: keep skin moisturized and follow your provider’s skincare recommendations.

Sun: avoid direct sun exposure and use broad-spectrum SPF daily.

48-Hour Checklist
Hydrate • Moisturize • Gentle cleansing • SPF daily • Avoid heat & sun

Week-1 Routine

Frequently Asked Questions

Lumecca IPL is a high-powered intense pulsed light treatment designed to improve pigmentation and vascular concerns in the skin. It delivers targeted light energy that is absorbed by pigment and hemoglobin, generating heat that breaks down unwanted pigment and visible vessels so the body can clear them naturally.

Lumecca delivers significantly higher energy in the optimal wavelength range compared to traditional IPL, allowing for more effective results in fewer sessions.

Lumecca IPL is commonly used to improve:

  • Sun damage and age spots
  • Freckles and uneven pigmentation
  • Redness and rosacea-related flushing
  • Broken capillaries and facial veins
  • Overall skin tone and clarity

It can be used on the face, neck, chest, hands, arms, and other sun-exposed areas.

Yes. Lumecca is a next-generation IPL technology that delivers higher peak power and more precise wavelengths than traditional IPL systems. This allows for better clearance of pigment and vascular lesions with fewer treatments and more noticeable results.

Lumecca is generally safe for lighter to medium skin tones. Your provider will assess your skin type, pigmentation, and medical history during consultation to determine candidacy and adjust settings for safety.

Most patients describe the sensation as a brief snap or warm pulse on the skin, similar to a rubber band. Discomfort is usually mild and short-lived, and treatment is well tolerated without numbing in most cases.

Downtime is minimal. Mild redness or warmth may appear immediately after treatment and typically resolves within a few hours.

Pigmented spots may temporarily darken over several days and gradually flake off or fade as the skin renews. Most patients return to normal activities the same day.

Many patients notice brighter, clearer skin within a few days of treatment. Pigmentation continues to improve over 1–2 weeks, while redness and vascular concerns fade gradually.

Skin tone and clarity often continue to improve with each session.

Most patients achieve noticeable improvement in 1–3 sessions, depending on the severity of pigmentation or redness and individual skin response. Your provider will recommend a personalized treatment plan.

Yes. Lumecca IPL is often combined with treatments such as HydraFacial, laser resurfacing, injectables, or skin care programs to enhance overall results. Combination plans are customized during consultation.

Avoid sun exposure and tanning before and after treatment. Daily use of broad-spectrum SPF is essential. Follow all pre- and post-treatment instructions provided by your practitioner to support optimal healing and results.
