LUMMECA – PHOTO RENEWAL OF SKIN

Skin Rejuvenation, Pigmentation and Redness Reduction with Lumecca IPL

Lumecca IPL is a high-intensity pulsed light treatment designed for skin rejuvenation and the reduction of pigmentation and redness. The technology targets melanin and haemoglobin, helping to reduce sun-induced pigmentation, age spots, visible capillaries, redness and uneven skin tone.

How does the Lumecca IPL treatment work?

During the treatment, broad-spectrum intense pulsed light (IPL) is absorbed by melanin and haemoglobin. The light energy is converted into heat, selectively targeting pigmented and vascular structures while preserving the surrounding tissue.

As a result, pigmentation gradually becomes lighter, visible capillaries and redness are reduced, and the skin tone becomes more even. The treatment also supports the skin's natural renewal processes and may improve overall skin quality and texture.

Typical results after 1–3 treatments

• Pigmentation becomes lighter and less visible
• Visible capillaries, vascular redness and facial redness are reduced
• Skin tone becomes more even
• Overall skin appearance and texture improve
• Skin appears healthier and more radiant

Visible improvement may be noticeable after the first treatment, although the number of treatments required varies depending on the skin condition, concern being treated and desired result.

💡 When treating pigmentation, the spots may initially appear darker after the procedure. This is an expected response – over the following days, the pigment gradually moves towards the surface of the skin and fades.

The skin continues to improve after treatment

Following a Lumecca IPL treatment, changes in the skin continue to develop gradually. Improvements in pigmentation may become noticeable within a few days, while redness, skin tone and overall skin quality may continue to improve over the following weeks.

The development and extent of the results vary between individuals and depend on the concern being treated, the condition of the skin and the number of treatments performed.

Results – Before and After

Lumecca IPL results develop gradually. Visible improvements in pigmentation, redness and skin tone may be noticeable after the first treatment, while a course of several treatments may be recommended for a more pronounced result.

The photographs show an example of the results after 3 Lumecca IPL treatments. In addition to reduced pigmentation and redness, a more even skin tone and an overall improvement in skin quality may also be observed.
