Lumecca IPL in Gawler, South Australia
At Jennifer Carly Aesthetic Medicine in Gawler, we offer Lumecca IPL, an advanced light-based treatment used to address various skin concerns. This technology can target pigmentation, sun damage, and visible veins.
Before treatment, our practitioners will discuss your goals, assess your skin, and determine if Lumecca IPL is suitable for you.
What is Lumecca IPL treatment?
Lumecca is an advanced Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment. It's not a laser. Instead, it uses powerful, broad-spectrum light delivered in quick flashes.
The light energy is absorbed by pigment in the skin — including the brown pigment found in sun spots and freckles, and the red pigment seen in broken capillaries. This targeted approach may assist with the appearance of overall skin clarity and tone.
What does Lumecca IPL treat?
Lumecca IPL is a versatile option that can be used on both the face and larger areas of the body.
For the Skin (Face, Neck & Décolletage)
On the face, neck, and décolletage, Lumecca IPL is used for the appearance of sun damage, including sun spots, freckles, and uneven skin tone. It may also assist with the look of surface-level redness and broken capillaries, supporting a more even-looking complexion.
For the Body
Lumecca IPL can also be applied to larger body areas that are often exposed to the sun. This includes the appearance of pigmentation and sun spots on the hands, arms, shoulders, and legs. The treatment may assist with supporting the look of more even skin tone and texture beyond the face.
Is Lumecca IPL Treatment right for me?
Lumecca IPL is for people who are mainly concerned with the appearance of sun damage, pigmentation, and redness. It’s a treatment designed to work on specific cosmetic concerns, such as:
- Sun spots, age spots, and freckles
- General uneven skin tone
- The look of broken capillaries or surface redness
- Overall skin clarity
This treatment works best on fairer skin tones. But a full consultation is the only way to determine if this is an appropriate option for your specific skin type and goals.
WHAT ARE VASCULAR & ROSACEA TREATMENTS?
Vascular and rosacea treatments use Lumeca IPL light energy to target visible blood vessels and redness in the skin. The light is absorbed by the hemoglobin in the blood vessels, causing them to coagulate and gradually be reabsorbed by the body. This helps reduce the appearance of spider veins, broken capillaries, and rosacea, revealing clearer, more even-toned skin.
ARE VASCULAR & ROSACEA TREATMENTS RIGHT FOR ME?
This treatment is suited to people concerned about persistent facial redness, visible surface veins, or signs of rosacea. It can be effective in reducing flushing, scattered red capillaries, and small vascular lesions. A consultation is recommended to confirm if Lumeca IPL is suitable for your skin type and to create a plan tailored to your goals.
Your Questions Answered
You will see a series of bright flashes of light. The sensation itself is often described as a quick, light flick, similar to a rubber band snapping against the skin.
There is minimal downtime. Your skin may feel warm and look a little red, similar to a mild sunburn after the treatment. Any pigmented spots that were treated will typically darken over the next few days before they naturally flake off.
This depends on your specific concerns and your skin. A course of several treatments is often recommended to achieve your skin goals. We'll create a personalised plan for you.
