Before and After Lumecca IPL

The results from Lumecca are typically visible after just one session, with optimal improvements seen over 2–3 treatments. Clinical evidence shows that Lumecca significantly improves skin tone, reduces superficial pigmentation, and visibly diminishes broken capillaries and redness.

Visible changes after treatment include:

Reduction of sunspots, freckles, and age-related pigmentation
More uniform skin tone and clarity of the skin
Fading of vascular lesions, including spider veins and facial telangiectasia
Overall brighter and smoother complexion
Improved skin texture and radiance

Case observations from our London clinic indicate improved skin luminosity and patient satisfaction within 10–14 days post-treatment. Mild redness or darkening of pigmented spots may appear temporarily and typically resolves within 48 hours.

Lumecca IPL Treatment: How Does It Work?

Lumecca works by delivering intense pulses of light energy to target pigmented and vascular lesions. The light from Lumecca is absorbed by the brown pigments in the skin and visible veins, effectively treating:

Sun exposure damage
Age spots and freckles
Vascular lesions
Fine lines and wrinkles
Uneven skin texture
Pigmentation issues

During treatment, you’ll experience a bright flash of light accompanied by a slight warming of the skin. This sensation on your skin typically subsides within an hour after treatment. The treated area will begin to improve as pigmented spots may darken and flake off naturally within 1-2 weeks, revealing radiant skin underneath.

Lumecca IPL is not only effective at addressing visible concerns but also stimulates collagen production to improve skin texture over time.

Lumecca IPL Process: Step by Step

Lumecca IPL treatments in our best clinic in central London are performed by trained aesthetic practitioners using FDA-cleared devices. Each procedure is conducted under controlled conditions to ensure efficacy and safety.

Treatment steps:

Initial consultation – Skin assessment, discussion of concerns, and patch test to ensure suitability for all skin types.
Pre-treatment preparation – Avoiding sun exposure for 24-48 hours prior to treatment and cleansing of the treatment area.
Treatment application – Protective eyewear is provided, and short, precise flashes of light energy are applied to the targeted areas of the body. The sensation is often described as a mild elastic snap with slight warming of the skin.
Post-treatment care – Application of soothing agents and SPF. Temporary redness and a slight warming sensation usually subside within an hour.

Typical session duration ranges from 20 to 45 minutes, depending on the treated area. Most patients resume normal activities immediately after treatment. A transient darkening of pigmented spots is expected and resolves as the skin naturally exfoliates over several days.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Lumecca IPL worth it?

Yes, Lumecca IPL therapy is a powerful and effective treatment for pigmentation, redness, and sun damage. Clinical feedback and published case series show that most patients notice significant improvement within just one session, making it a high-yield investment in skin appearance and confidence.

Is laser or IPL more expensive?

Laser treatments are generally more expensive due to the technology and depth of penetration. However, for surface-level concerns such as pigmentation and vascular lesions, IPL treatments in London (including Lumecca) are often more affordable and equally effective when appropriately selected.

Is IPL or laser better for pigmentation?

For superficial pigmentation like sun spots and freckles, Lumecca IPL is highly effective and requires fewer sessions. Lasers may be preferred for deeper melasma or dermal pigment but come with a higher risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, especially in darker skin types.

What is the difference between Moxi and Lumecca?

Moxi is a non-ablative fractional laser designed for preventative skin maintenance and early signs of aging. Lumecca IPL targets vascular and pigmented lesions using light-based technology. While Moxi stimulates collagen and texture, Lumecca is more focused on treating pigmented and vascular lesions. The choice depends on the patient’s concern and skin condition.

Can Lumecca be combined with other treatments?

Yes, Lumecca IPL can be combined with treatments like microneedling to enhance collagen production and further improve skin texture. Our London clinic offers customized combination protocols for optimal results.

How many sessions will I need?

While many patients see visible results after just one session, we typically recommend 1-3 Lumecca treatments for maximum effectiveness, spaced 3-4 weeks apart.

What skin types can be treated?

Lumecca™ IPL can be used effectively on Fitzpatrick skin types I-IV. During your consultation, our specialists will assess your skin to ensure you’re an ideal candidate.

Is there any downtime?

Side effects are minimal and usually subside within an hour. Most patients experience temporary redness and a slight warming of the skin that feels like a mild sunburn.
