What to Expect During a Lumecca IPL Procedure

Are you curious about what to expect during a Lumecca IPL procedure? With the advancement of treatments for skin rejuvenation and the prevalence of laser procedures, it’s important to understand what is involved in a treatment before committing. This blog post will give you an overview of expectations for one specific procedure - Lumecca IPL.

When patients come in for a Lumecca IPL procedure, they can anticipate a few key points. First and foremost, it should be known that this is not an invasive procedure. In fact, no needles are used at all. The only instrument used on the patient’s skin is the handpiece from which Intense Pulse Light (IPL) energy is emitted.

As far as comfort level goes, patients experience very little discomfort during this procedure due to its non-invasive nature. Additionally, topical anesthetics may be applied if desired by the patient in order to numb the area being treated prior to treatment. Once the treatment begins, there is generally no pain or discomfort experienced by patients during their session. They may feel some heat sensation with each pulse of light which usually dissipates quickly afterwards.

Before proceeding with any type of laser or light based therapy, preparation is required in order to ensure safety standards are met and optimal results are achieved. There are certain things that must be done prior to treatment with Lumecca IPL such as avoiding sun exposure or tanning beds for at least two weeks prior to the appointment along with proper skincare protocols including recommended homecare products and gentle cleansing routines such as those outlined by your medical provider at least one week before your appointment day.

Other than these guidelines, most other aspects of preparation regarding care after your appointment doesn't require much effort on the patient's part other than avoiding activities that would cause sweating for 24-48 hours post procedural as well avoiding direct sun exposure over treated areas for up to three days following their appointments as indicated by individual instructions from your provider’s office .

Patients can also anticipate seeing results between 1-3 weeks following their initial session depending upon individual healing timescales and possible multiple treatments needed in order achieve desired outcomes or deeper levels of rejuvenation goals set forth by both Provider and Patient alike. Some common signs seen within 1-2 weeks include brighter complexion overall with more even tonal quality across face (or bodies) where applicable accompanied by reduced visibility in certain skin imperfections like hyperpigmentation and acne scarring appearance leaving behind soft smoother looking skin surface texture(s).
