Sun spots, spider veins, and melasma are some of the many skin conditions that can prevent you from having ageless and clear skin. Lumecca is a treatment that can quickly improve many types of skin irregularities with just a few brief sessions. Lumecca uses intense pulsed light (IPL) to target and reduce sun damage, freckles, rosacea, and more to improve skin complexion, and to help you achieve your unique aesthetic goals and feel like your best self yet.
Lumecca can treat and improve the appearance of skin anywhere on the body—especially areas that are regularly exposed to the sun such as the face, neck, chest, arms, hands, and legs.
Reduce Sun Spots and Freckles
Sun spots and freckles can often accumulate in areas that get lots of sun exposure. Sometimes, sun spots and freckles can overlap to make skin look darker in certain areas and throw off your overall skin tone. Lumecca can break up these pigments, including brown patches known as melasma, and even out your skin tone to give you clearer skin.
Improve Photo-Damaged Skin
Photo-damaged skin describes any skin changes induced by prolonged exposure to the sun, such as fine lines, deep wrinkles, roughness, melasma, and discoloration. If your skin has one or more of these signs of photo damage, Lumecca can effectively reverse these changes with a few treatments.
Reduce Spider Veins
Spider veins are often just as visible and unsightly as varicose veins, but are far smaller and less raised. Spider veins can be caused by genetics, obesity, trauma, and hormone imbalances, and tend to become more prevalent with age. The IPL emitted by Lumecca can improve the appearance of spider veins without damaging nearby skin.
Reduce Rosacea
Rosacea is a common skin condition characterized by redness and the appearance of tiny blood vessels on the face. Rosacea usually develops during middle age and is frequently caused by excess exposure to the wind and sun. Clear Skin with Lumecca can effectively help reduce the appearance of rosacea without the side effects associated with medications commonly used to treat this skin condition.
Non-Invasive Skin Rejuvenation
Lumecca is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that doesn’t involve the use of needles or scalpels. With Lumecca, the surface of the skin is safely heated using a small handheld device. Patients who have been treated with Lumecca report feeling a slightly hot tingling sensation during sessions, and compare the feeling to that of a rubber band being snapped against the skin.
Prior to your treatment session, our Lumecca technician will apply a topical anesthetic or cooling gel to your skin to help you feel more comfortable. You may also be given protective goggles to wear over your eyes that minimize your exposure to the IPL technology.
How does it work?
Each Lumecca treatment session lasts an average of 30 minutes, though larger treatment areas may require extra time. Lumecca has been shown to effectively reduce skin irregularities within a few days after treatment, with results being most noticeable after two weeks. Lumecca IPL treatment also produces no downtime—meaning you can go back to work or resume daily activities immediately following your appointment.
Candidates for IPL
Anyone looking to address the following skin conditions is a good candidate for a Lumecca IPL: brown/red blemishes, sunspots, age spots, vascular redness, broken blood vessels, Rosacea, and mole-like discolorations.

How do I prepare for my peel?Lush MedSpa recommends that you avoid aggressive exfoliation for 2 days prior to your procedure, that you refrain from waxing in the treated area for 5 days prior and that use cease the use of retinal at least 1 week prior.
-
How do I know which peel is right for me?We offer a variety of peels, each with unique solutions depending on your individual needs. Prior to scheduling a peel, we recommend you get a pre-peel consultation to determine which peel is best for your individual needs.
-
Does it hurt?uring the treatment, it is common to feel mild stinging or burning while the solution is in contact with the skin. Following a peel, your skin may appear red, feel tight or be mildly irritated. Collectively, most clients report only mild discomfort during and after the procedure. For more intensive chemical peels, moderate swelling and dryness may occur and in rare cases blistering.
-
When should I expect to see results from my peel?In the case of many peels, you will see noticeable improvements within the first few days after treatment. However, to achieve significant results, multiple treatments may be required.
-
What do I do when my skin starts peeling?We recommend you do not pick or pull at the dead skin and allow the skin to slough off naturally at its own pace. For more rapid peeling you can choose to forgo the use of moisturizers; however, if this becomes too uncomfortable moisturize to your comfort level. Once the peeling slows you can reintroduce moisture ideally with a product containing Hyaluronic acid.
