Discover a superior solution to improve skin complexion, reduce skin irregularities, and look years younger with Lumecca IPL (intense pulse light) treatment at Willis Cosmetic Surgery.
What Is Lumecca IPL Treatment?
Lumecca is the most powerful intense pulsed light (IPL) to treat pigmented and vascular lesions. After just one use, you’ll notice significant improvements in the complexion and clarity of your skin.
Lumecca operates using photothermolysis, which provides a photofacial through the delivery of a comfortable light treatment.

The Benefits of Lumecca
Lumecca IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatment is a revolutionary approach to skin rejuvenation that offers a wide array of benefits to enhance your skin’s appearance without invasive procedures.
Here’s what you can expect from incorporating Lumecca IPL treatments into your skincare regimen:
Enhanced Skin Clarity & Even Tone
Lumecca IPL is highly effective in targeting pigment issues such as sun spots, age spots, and hyperpigmentation. The intense pulsed light penetrates the skin to break down dark spots, resulting in a clearer and more uniform skin tone.
Reduction of Vascular Lesions
For those struggling with visible vascular lesions like spider veins, rosacea, or port wine stains, Lumecca offers a non-invasive solution. The treatment targets and constricts the blood vessels responsible for these blemishes, significantly reducing their appearance on the skin.
Improved Skin Texture
Lumecca can help smooth the skin’s texture by stimulating collagen production through its light-based energy. Increased collagen leads to skin that not only feels smoother but also appears more youthful and resilient.
Quick & Convenient Sessions
Each Lumecca IPL session typically lasts between 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the treatment area. This short duration makes it easy to fit into a busy schedule, allowing patients to return to their regular activities immediately following the session.
Minimally Invasive & Minimal Downtime
Unlike some cosmetic procedures, Lumecca IPL involves no cuts, no incisions, and no need for anesthesia.
The process is relatively pain-free, described by most patients as a quick snap of heat. This makes the treatment ideal for those who are looking for effective results with minimal interruption to their daily lives.
Long-Lasting Results
After completing a recommended series of treatments, patients can enjoy long-lasting improvements to their skin.
While some benefits can be seen after just one session, optimal results typically emerge after multiple treatments, with effects that can last for years with proper skin care and sun protection.
Suitable for a Range of Skin Issues
Lumecca IPL is versatile and can be customized to treat a variety of skin conditions across different parts of the body, including the face, neck, chest, hands, and legs.
What Results to Expect With Lumecca IPL Treatment
In just one – three sessions, Lumecca IPL improves the appearance of:
- Age spots (red/brown pigmentations)
- Vascular lesions such as facial telangiectasias (spider veins) and poikiloderma
- Rosacea (redness)
- Freckles
- Sun damage
You’ll see sun damage and skin complexion results within a few days after your first session. Your skin will continue to look younger and more brilliant over time with most visible results after one to two weeks.
Having multiple photofacial sessions will improve the final result. For vascular treatments such as facial telangiectasias, you’ll see results within two weeks.
