Lumecca is a powerful intense pulsed light treatment that works to reduce visible signs of aging. At The Plastic Surgery Group of Rochester, it’s important to us to help you look and feel your best. Here, we’ll explore the benefits of Lumecca.
What Is Lumecca?
Lumecca is an intense pulsed light (IPL) device that uses photothermolysis to deliver strong light energy to the treatment area. While Lumecca functions similarly to other IPL devices, it has a higher peak power, allowing it to deliver more energy to the target areas than other IPL treatments.
What Are the Benefits of Lumecca?
Lumecca can be used on all areas of the body and can treat a number of skin issues, including sun damage, freckles, rosacea, spider veins, age spots, and more. Treatment is comfortable and delivers fast results—patients notice a significant change in their skin within a week after their treatment.
What Can I Expect During a Lumecca Treatment Session?
During your treatment session, you’ll first talk with your care provider to go over your treatment plan. Then, you’ll relax comfortably while your provider applies the Lumecca device to your target areas. You may feel a sensation similar to a light snap from a rubber band. After your treatment is complete, your skin may feel red and warm—this typically subsides within an hour. Over the next 48 hours, you’ll likely see a darkening of treatment areas. In the coming days, treatment areas will begin to flake off, evening out your skin tone.
