FAQs
Lumecca improves the appearance of:
- Age spots (red/brown pigmentations)
- Vascular lesions such as spider veins
- Rosacea (redness)
- Freckles
- Sun damage
Sun damage and skin complexion results can be seen a few days after the first session. The skin will continue to look younger and more brilliant over time with the most visible results after 1-2 weeks. Having multiple photo-facial sessions will improve the final result. For vascular treatments such as facial spider veins results can be seen in up to 2 weeks.
3 sessions done once a month are recommended. Some people may require more sessions.
Maintenance is recommended every 6 to 12 months.
Avoid direct, excessive sun exposure or tanning one month prior to treatment.
During treatment, there will be a bright flash of light from Lumecca and a sensation on your skin that feels like a light snap from an elastic band. Redness and a slight warming of the skin are normal after treatment and usually subside within an hour. Over the next 24 -48 hours you may see a darkening of pigmented spots; in the week afterward 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 with disappears after a few days.
