In an IPL photo facial, the light intentionally damages the skin’s red blood cells and pigmentation. The damaged pigmentation or melanin penetrates the skin, and the damaged red blood cells stimulate blood flow to the targeted area to increase melanin absorption. In doing so, the skin achieves a uniform and smoother look.
Lumecca IPL skin rejuvenation works well on nearly every area of your body. The most effective results are achieved in treatment sites that are more exposed to UV rays, including the face, neck, hands, legs, décolletage, and arms. Furthermore, unlike many other intense pulse light devices that may require as many as six to eight treatments to deliver visible results, with Lumecca IPL, you can achieve deeper, more pervasive, and natural-looking outcomes in just one to two sessions.
Skin conditions like the ones mentioned above often develop due to excess exposure to the sun, general aging,
and active lifestyles. Typically, the chest, shoulders, face, back of the hands, and neck are exposed to the
damaging effects of sunlight. IPL photofacial BroadBand Light can treat the following conditions:
IPL reduces age spots, sun damage, and pigmentation irregularities, revealing a clearer, more radiant complexion.
Light energy targets acne-causing bacteria, calming inflammation and minimizing breakouts for smoother, healthier-looking skin.
IPL safely fades broken capillaries and spider veins, improving skin clarity without harming surrounding tissue.
By stimulating collagen, IPL enhances firmness and elasticity, softening fine lines for a youthful glow.
IPL disrupts hair growth at the follicle, leading to long-term reduction and softer, smoother skin.
While both IPL and lasers utilize light energy to rejuvenate the skin and remove imperfections, these treatments use different forms of light and have different
effects on the skin.
