There are a lot of new treatments and technology for skin care in 2025, and people have a lot of questions about those skin care options. Family’s Allergy Clinic and Wellness Center wants to focus today on giving you the information you need to know about Lumecca and IPL Treatments.
What is Lumecca?
Lumecca is a brand name for a form of very powerful “Intense Pulsed Light Therapy” that addresses a number of skin care issues using a non-invasive form of light.
What is IPL Used to Treat?
Intense Pulsed Light Therapy (IPL) is a cosmetic procedure that aids in treating skin conditions such as:
- Age Spots
- Permanent Hair Removal
- Birthmarks and Skin Spots
- Skin Discoloration (Uneven Skin Tone)
- Hyperpigmentation
- Rosacea
- Stretch Marks
- Birth Marks
- Wrinkles
- Acne
- Other Skin Conditions
IPL can also be used to treat or remove spider veins, fine lines, freckles, and broken blood vessels that give you skin an “old” or aged look.
Is IPL Therapy Safe?
Yes, IPL therapy is safe when administered by a professional. Just like a tattoo artist or permanent makeup artist, the changes are permanent, so make sure you receive IPL Therapy from a professional who knows what they are doing.
Lumecca Versus Other Forms of IPL Therapy
Lumecca is the brand name for a form of IPL Therapy that is safe and administered only by licensed professionals. Lumecca IPL utilizes a higher light intensity than other forms of IPL, making it more effective. This means that patients can see quicker results from Lumecca and fewer sessions.
How Long Does It Take To See Results from Lumecca IPL
The wondrous effectiveness of IPL means that you will see results after just your first session. The most optimal results are seen about 4-6 weeks after the first Lumecca IPL Session. Although, depending on the reason for treatment, these timeframes can vary.
Is Lumecca FDA Approved?
Yes, Lumecca is approved for use in all parts of the body – since it is safe and no side effects have been established in years of clinical trials. The most common places a person may receive Lumecca treatments is on the face, legs and arms, neck, and torso.
Does Lumecca Work on Dark Skin?
Yes, no matter what shade your skin tone is Lumecca can be used to treat carious skin conditions. From fair skin to dark ebony, IPL simply helps to make your skin healthier and enhance its natural beauty.
Does Lumecca Hurt?
There is no pain with the Intense Pulsed Light Therapy of Lumecca, however the targeted areas will see slight swelling and irritation after the first day, much like a mild sunburn. These symptoms usually go away after an hour or two of the treatment.
Recovery Time from Lumecca and Intense Pulsed Light Therapy
There is very little recovery time from the sessions, and the main irritation after a session subsides after about an hour. However, in the weeks following the sessions, you will see new fresh skin forming from the inside-out. You may notice the top layer of “old” skin dry and flake away. It is recommended to keep out of direct sunlight while the new skin arises, use sunscreen and keep the area clean.
