An even skin tone is one of the surest signs of healthy and youthful skin. With aging, hypo- and hyperpigmentation become a concern for patients. Energy-based treatments, such as Lumecca, are the most effective means of restoring an even skin tone. Lumecca is a very powerful intense pulsed light (IPL) that treats pigmented and vascular lesions. After just one use, you will notice significant improvement in the complexion and clarity of your skin. Lumecca operates using photothermolysis, which delivers a comfortable and effective light treatment. Lumecca treats:
- Treats age spots
- Reduces vascular lesions such as spider veins
- Rosacea
- Freckle reduction
- Repairs Sun damage
Redness and a slight warming of the skin are normal after treatment and usually subside within an hour. Over the next one to two days, you may notice a darkening of pigmented spots. In the weeks following, the pigmented lesions will clear, leading to an evening out of the skin tone. After treating vascular lesions, you may see the vein blanch or a color change in the vessel, which will dissipate after a few days. An improved skin appearance can be noted after the first session. Multiple sessions provide even better results.
