Lumecca IPL Treatment
Lumecca IPL Provides Superior Improvement For Various Skin Concerns.
Lumecca IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) offers a superior solution for improving skin’s complexion, reducing irregularities, and taking years off your appearance. Often referred to as a photofacial, this amazing laser light treatment effectively targets brown/red spots, sun damage, rosacea, and a myriad of other skin conditions and concerns. In as little as one treatment session, patients notice significant improvements in the complexion and clarity of their skin. IPL treatments can safely be performed on the face, neck, shoulders, chest, arms, legs, back and other areas of the body.
How does Lumecca IPL work?
The Lumecca IPL device uses multiple wavelengths of light to safely penetrate the skin and target the cells that produce pigment just below the surface. The light energy gently converts to heat, which destroys the melanin-producing cells to alleviate hyperpigmentation and other unwanted skin abnormalities in the process. Damaged cells are eventually pulled to the surface, where they ultimately flake off and reveal more radiant, healthy-looking skin.
What skin conditions can Lumecca IPL treat?
Lumecca IPL treatments can help improve a host of skin concerns, including (but not limited to) the following:
- Hyperpigmentation
- Rosacea (redness)
- Uneven skin tone
- Enlarged pores
- Sun damage
- Lines and wrinkles
- Birthmarks
- Freckles
- Liver spots
- Vascular lesions (such as spider veins)
These and other concerns can be improved in as little as one to three treatments. We’ll go over all the details during your private consultation.
Am I a candidate for Lumecca IPL treatments?
Lumecca IPL treatments may be a good option for people who wish to improve their skin tone by reducing pigmentation issues or addressing any of the other issues listed above. At Beauti Pharm in Grand Blanc, we’ll discuss your specific concerns, explain the treatment in further detail, and help you decide if it’s the best option to meet your individual beauty goals.
How many IPL treatments will I need?
Though most people see improvement after one treatment, a series of IPL sessions are generally recommended to achieve even better results. We’ve found that around three treatments spaced approximately four weeks apart offer the biggest improvement. This will depend on the severity of skin damage, your skin type, type of treatment, and required energy settings, so more sessions may be needed. We’ll discuss your goals at your consultation and design a treatment plan to lead to your best outcome.
What should I expect during and after my Lumecca IPL treatment?
During your treatment, there will be a bright flash of light from the device and a sensation on your skin that feels like a slight snap of a rubberband. Mild redness and a minor warming sensation of the skin are normal following treatment. These effects usually subside within a few hours. Since IPL treatments are noninvasive, you won’t need any recovery time. You’ll want to limit any sun exposure and be consistent in wearing sunscreen in the weeks following your session, however.
When will I see results following my Lumecca IPL treatment?
Lumecca IPL effects are typically gradual. Most patients begin to see changes in their skin within a week to 10 days following treatment. Other areas of the body may take upwards of six to eight weeks to show full improvement. In general, sun damage and skin complexion benefits can usually be seen a few days after the first session. For vascular treatments such as spider veins, results can be seen in about two weeks. If a series of treatments are recommended, as is typical, you’ll see increasingly positive results and eventually achieve the radiant complexion you desire.
