Patients notice significant improvements in the complexion and clarity of their skin.
Lumecca can be used on all areas of the body. The most common areas of treatment are zones are regularly exposed to the sun.This often includes the face, neck and décolletage, legs, hands and arms. However, it is safe and effective on most parts of the body and face. In just 1-3 comfortable treatments, patients notice significant improvements in the complexion and clarity of their skin. We even have 2 different hand pieces of differing wavelength spectrums, to allow safe treatment of darker skin types.
Lumecca improves the appearance of:
Age spots
Sun damage
Rosacea
Freckles
Vascular lesions (thread veins, spider veins, port wine stains, telangiectasiae)
Uneven skin tone
Pigmentation
At INJCT Skin Clinic we see great result with combination therapies.
What can I expect during and after treatment?
During the treatment there will be a bright flash of light from the Lumecca that feels like a light elastic sensation. Redness and a slight warming of the skin is normal after the treatment and usually subsides within an hour. Over the next 24-48 hours you may see a darkening of the pigmented spots; the weeks afterwards, the pigmented lesions flake off, leading to an evening out of skin tone.After treating vascular lesions, you may see the vein blanch and disappear or a colour change in the vessel which dissipates after a few days.
How many sessions are required?
An improved skin appearance can be noted after the first session, however a course of 3-6 treatments would be recommended for best results. Treatment regime depends on the severity of skin damage, skin type, type of treatment (vascular vs sun damage)and energy settings.
Are there any side effects?
Most patients do not experience any side effects and any skin reaction usually resolves itself with a few hours. Patients may find they are sensitive to sunlight immediately after treatment.It is recommended to avoid direct sunlight and tanning
