Looking to achieve brighter, more beautiful skin at the speed of light? Lumecca by InMode is the latest IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) technology that uses powerful, state-of-the-art light therapy to even skin tone from top to bottom without a laser or chemical peel in sight. But, is everyone a good candidate for this advanced brightening treatment? We’re shedding light on one of the biggest beauty treatments to heat-up the aesthetics scene.
Lumecca by InMode is a next generation IPL tool that promises to even skin tone by fading unwanted hyperpigmentation/discoloration, sunspots, freckles, acne scarring, stretchmarks, spider veins, broken capillaries, redness/rosacea, dark undereye circles, as well as diminishing enlarged pores and smoothing roughened skin texture. Lumecca is the latest go-to skin-perfecting treatment that addresses both tone and texture concerns on both face and body in a single session, leaving skin visibly brighter and smoother. Most patients only need 1-2 Lumecca IPL sessions to yield desired results, which can last up to two years or longer. So, it’s no wonder patients are questioning if the current cosmetics craze is right for them.
Light at Long Last: What Makes Lumecca Stand-out From Traditional IPL?
Unlike traditional IPL, Lumecca has the innovative ability to treat a wide variety of skin types, as well as a multitude of areas in a single session. While traditional IPL treatments can take up to 8 sessions to achieve desired results, Lumecca gets working to save you time – and face – without the dread of downtime, cutting, scarring, or peeling. Many patients use Lumecca as their pre-party complexion-perfecting boost or to get that on-camera, red-carpet glow. A noninvasive alternative to the time-consuming, commitment, and cost of laser or chemical peels, Lumecca light therapy helps patients achieve an even, brightening boost in as little as 60 minutes or less (depending on area(s) being treated) with results that can last up to 2 or more years before maintenance/follow-up sessions are required.
Results at the Speed of Light
What makes Lumecca the crème de la crème of IPL? It uses a special, ergonomic handpiece ingeniously equipped with a xenon flash lamp to lighten darkened areas safely and effectively in less time than traditional IPL treatments. It also uses a game-changing sapphire cooling tip that helps protect skin’s surrounding, susceptible surface areas from burning or becoming overheated. Results are faster and more effective than any other IPL device on the market, delivering up to 3 times more light than any other IPL treatment.

Shedding Some Light
While any skin tone can experience hyperpigmentation, including sunspots, freckles, melasma, and more, it must be remembered that lighter skin tones tend to fair best with light therapy treatments to correct their complexion woes. Their ability to better absorb the 40% increase of 500-600nm light intensity emitted from the device, compared to traditional IPL, makes lighter skin tones more tempering than their darker skin counterparts. However, it’s always in the patient’s best interest to come in for a one-one-one consultation with any of our highly skilled clinicians here at DG Aesthetics.
