The company behind it is True Life Canvas in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, this technologically advanced solution for skincare has become the foundation treatment for clients wanting to address a variety of skin concerns with minimal time. Treat age spots
Understanding IPL Technology: The Science Behind the Glow
Lumecca uses Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology, a highly effective approach to skin rejuvenation that uses the principle of photothermolysis. Unlike lasers that emit an only one wavelength (light), IPL equipment emits multiple wavelengths of light, allowing them to tackle various skin concerns at the same time.
The treatment works by delivering specific light pulses through the skin's pores looking for specific pigments. When these light beams meet melanin (responsible for brown spots) or hemoglobin (found in blood vessels) and hemoglobin (found in blood vessels), they create heat which damages specific tissue without affecting the skin surrounding. This precise targeting triggers body's natural healing response that promotes collagen growth while clearing unwanted pigmentation and vascular lesions.
What differentiates Lumecca in a way from others IPL products is it's incredible capability and efficiency. The treatments can be completed in fewer sessions compared to traditional IPL devices, making it a cost-effective option for busy patients looking for tangible results.
Transformative Benefits for a range of skin issues
Lumecca IPL Photofacial addresses a wide range of skin conditions, making it an ideal choice for people who want to treat multiple problems with an approach that is based on a single treatment:
Vascular Lesions
The tiny blood vessels (telangiectasias) which are found on the cheeks, nose and chin may be effectively removed or diminished. Cherry angiomas -- those bright, red spots that appear on any part of the body -- also respond very well to Lumecca treatments because the laser energy targets and sloughs these blood vessels that are superficial.
Age Spots and Sun Damage
Many years of exposure to the sun leave their mark in form of hyperpigmentation. Lumecca concentrates on melanin levels and breaks them down so that your body is able to eliminate them. Age spots, freckles, and sun-damage that seemed permanent can fade significantly after a course of treatment.
Rosacea Management
For those who are struggling with the constant redness and inflammation caused by rosacea, Lumecca offers a non-pharmaceutical method of treating symptoms. By treating the blood vessels that are dilation responsible for the visible redness, IPL treatments can offer long-lasting relief and improve the skin's tone.
Total Skin Revitalization
Beyond treating specific concerns, Lumecca treatments also stimulate collagen production, which improves skin texture, decreasing pore size and creating more youthful and radiant skin overall.
Experience of Treatment: Comfort Meets Effectiveness
It is the Lumecca IPL experience at True Life Canvas emphasizes comfort and results. In your appointment, you'll be fitted with eyewear that protects you while a skincare expert applies cooling gels to the treatment area. The Lumecca handpiece is then applied to the skin and delivers precise pulses of light.
A large number of clients describe the sensation as a warm, quick click similar to an elastic band against the skin. The treatment's built-in cooling system minimizes discomfort, and most sessions are completed in 30 to 45 minutes, based on the size of the treatment area.
Following treatment, the affected areas could appear red, similar to the appearance of a slight sunburn. Dark spots might temporarily darken before fading away, which is a good sign to show that treatment working effectively. As these blood vessels undergo treatment they might be more apparent initially before diminishing over those days that follow your treatment.
Treatment Areas: Beyond Just the Face
While facial treatments are among the most commonly used, Lumecca's versatility can be extended to multiple areas where sun damage and aging signs show up:
Face Take care of sun damage and rosacea, sun spots and improve overall tone
Neck: Reduce redness and address sun-damaged skin which often develops in this often exposed region.
Decolletage/Chest to reduce sun-damaged spots and smooth this delicate and sensitive area that is often ignored during routines for skincare.
Hands restore youthful appearance for hands that typically show signs of ageing through spots and thinner skin
From Radiance to Timeline: What You Can Expect
One of Lumecca's greatest advantages is its quick outcome timeline. The individual experience of each person is different based on the type of skin and the issues being addressed:
After treatment skin may appear slightly flushed. Additionally, spots with dark pigmentation might become darker.
1-day post-treatment: Darkened spots begin to flake off, and vascular lesions begin to fade
2 to 3 weeks post-treatment: Noticeable improvement in skin tone and clarity become obvious
Three treatments Significant improvement in the majority of cases (typically intervals of 4-6 weeks)
Maintenance procedures: Usually recommended every 6-12 months to preserve and improve results
For best results, the majority of patients benefit from 3 treatments However, those with more significant concerns may require more sessions. The True Life Canvas specialist will design a treatment plan that is specific to your needs during your appointment.
