When Can I Expect to See Results from Lumecca IPL?
Many patients notice visible improvements in skin tone (hyperpigmentation) and clarity a few days after their first treatment, with continued enhancement over the following weeks as the skin naturally heals and regenerates. The timing of results can vary based on individual skin concerns and the body’s healing process. Your nurse or doctor can provide more detailed guidance during your consultation.

Before and After
Why Choose Lumecca IPL?
- Non-Invasive with Minimal Downtime: Lumecca IPL offers a gentle treatment with little to no disruption to your daily routine.
- Customisable Intensity: The treatment can be tailored to your skin’s specific needs and comfort level.
- Noticeable Improvements: Many patients notice visible results after their first session.
- Addresses Multiple Skin Concerns: Lumecca IPL is designed to target pigmentation, vascular irregularities, and photodamage for clearer, more even skin.
How does Lumecca IPL work?
Lumecca IPL uses Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology to deliver controlled light energy to targeted areas of the skin. This light is absorbed by pigmented spots and vascular irregularities, breaking them down into smaller particles that the body naturally eliminates. The treatment is designed to address pigmentation, redness, and overall skin tone, encouraging a clearer and more even appearance over time.
How long does Lumecca IPL results last?
The longevity of results from Lumecca IPL treatments varies depending on individual factors such as skin type, lifestyle, and sun exposure. Maintenance treatments may be recommended to support long-term outcomes, and consistent sun protection can help prolong the benefits. Your nurse or doctor can provide a tailored plan based on your specific needs.
Is Lumecca IPL better than a chemical peel?
Lumecca IPL and chemical peels address different skin concerns, making them suitable for varying needs. Lumecca IPL uses light energy to target pigmentation, vascular irregularities, and photodamage, while chemical peels exfoliate the skin to improve texture, fine lines, and superficial concerns. The choice between the two depends on your specific goals, skin type, and concerns. A consultation with your nurse or doctor can help determine the most appropriate option for you.
What is the difference between Lumecca IPL and Morpheus 8?
Lumecca IPL and Morpheus8 are distinct treatments designed for different skin concerns and work through different technologies:
- Lumecca IPL: Utilises Intense Pulsed Light to target pigmentation, vascular irregularities, and photodamage. It is primarily used for improving skin tone and addressing surface-level skin concerns.
- Morpheus8: Combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to target deeper layers of the skin. It is designed to address skin tightening, texture, and deeper skin remodeling, such as fine lines and acne scars.
The best option depends on your specific skin concerns, whether they are surface-level or deeper, and the goals of your treatment.
What are the potential side effects of Lumecca IPL?
Like any treatment, Lumecca IPL may have potential side effects, which can vary depending on individual skin type and sensitivity. These may include:
- Mild redness or swelling in the treated area, usually resolving within a few hours to a day.
- Temporary darkening of pigmented spots as they begin to flake and fade.
- Sensitivity or a mild sunburn-like sensation, which typically subsides quickly.
- In rare cases, blistering, changes in skin pigmentation, or scarring.
Your nurse or doctor will assess your skin and discuss any potential risks during your consultation to ensure the treatment is appropriate for you. Always follow aftercare instructions to minimise side effects.
