Lumecca

A photofacial to reduce signs of premature aging and rejuvenate skin.

Lumecca IPL Photofacial or photorejuvenation, is an effective, non-invasive way to treat and reduce mild sun damage, brown spots, broken capillaries and irregular pigmentation on the face, neck and chest. It uses intense flashes of light that penetrate deep below skin's surface to break down pigment and target hemoglobin (for capillaries) and melanin-producing cells.

Why we love it?

It's an incredibly effective way to remove areas of discoloration but without being invasive or requiring a total resurfacing. There's no downtime and it's actually kind of cool to watch the spots surface and then flake away. We also love that it can address a variety of skin concerns to reveal a more even-toned, radiant complexion.

We’ve Got Answers.

  • You'll begin to see an improvement in skin within 1-2 weeks. However, the results continue to improve over time, and you'll likely see the best results about 1 month after your last treatment.

  • IPL Facial initially requires 3-5 treatments, spaced 4 weeks apart. After that, we recommend you repeat the series once a year.

  • Yes, you can. You'll experience some redness, but you're free to cover it up with makeup.

  • Clients say it feels like a rubberband snapping against skin. Which is to say it can be a little uncomfortable, but it's relatively painless. Afterwards, it might feel like you have a mild sunburn.

  • Lumecca is best for those with fairer skin (Fitzpatrick Scale Types I-III), as it targets melanin in the skin. We recommend it for those looking to target redness, hyperpigmentation, and melasma.

  • Stop retinol use and exfoliating active ingredients at least 2 weeks before treatment.

    Wait to book Lumecca IPL if you’ve had other facial treatments—within the past 2 weeks.

    If you’ve recently been sunburned, wait 4 weeks before this treatment.

    If you have a fresh tan—either sun-made or artificial—wait 2 weeks before this treatment.

  • Limit sun exposure for 1 week after treatment, and wear sunscreen daily to protect your skin.

    You’ll notice dark spots rise to the surface of your skin within 1-2 days. That's totally normal, and a sign that the treatment is working! Allow them to flake off on their own over the next 1-2 weeks to prevent hyperpigmentation. No picking.
