IPL packages are non-refundable according to our Package Policy.

Results and the number of sessions needed vary based on individual skin concerns, skin characteristics, and sun exposure history.

Lumecca Technology
Lumecca is an advanced Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment by InMode designed to improve skin tone and reduce the appearance of pigmentation, redness, sun damage, and visible vascular concerns. It delivers powerful pulses of broad-spectrum light into the skin, targeting unwanted pigment and blood vessels while leaving the surrounding tissue largely unaffected.
Unlike a traditional laser that uses a single wavelength, Lumecca uses IPL technology with a range of wavelengths to address multiple skin concerns during the same treatment. Its high-energy output and specialized sapphire cooling system are designed to provide efficient treatment while helping keep the skin comfortable.
-
Lumecca IPL is commonly used to improve the appearance of:
Sun damage and sun spots
Brown spots and uneven pigmentation
Age spots
Freckles
Facial redness
Visible small blood vessels
Rosacea-related redness
Uneven skin tone
Photo-damaged skin
Common treatment areas include the face, neck, décolleté/chest, and hands—areas that frequently show visible signs of sun exposure and aging.
-
Lumecca delivers controlled pulses of light that are absorbed by targeted pigment or hemoglobin within visible blood vessels. The light energy is converted into heat, helping break down unwanted pigmentation or address visible vascular lesions.
Following treatment, pigmented spots may temporarily become darker before gradually fading or flaking away, while redness and visible vessels may diminish as the skin responds and heals.
-
Helps create a brighter, more even-looking complexion
Reduces the appearance of sun damage and pigmentation
Helps minimize redness and visible vascular concerns
Treats multiple skin concerns in a single session
Can be used on several commonly sun-exposed areas
Requires relatively little downtime for many patients
What Is an IPL Facial?
An IPL Facial - also known as an IPL photofacial or photofacial IPL - uses precise wavelengths of light to treat unwanted pigmentation, redness, and textural irregularities. Unlike harsh procedures, IPL works beneath the surface to encourage natural skin repair while keeping downtime minimal.
This makes IPL ideal not only for the face, but for treating sun-spotted hands, pigmented arms, legs, neck and chest areas, especially when dealing with freckles, sun spots or sun-damage across multiple zones.
This advanced photofacial treatment is ideal for anyone wanting clearer, brighter, more even skin without invasive procedures.
-
Our IPL technology targets a wide range of common skin concerns, making it one of the most versatile corrective treatments available.
IPL helps improve:
Sun damage & age spots
Brown spots, freckles, and hyperpigmentation
Rosacea and persistent facial redness
Acne-prone skin and post-acne pigmentation
Uneven skin tone
Broken capillaries
Enlarged pores
Dullness and photo-aging
From ipl brown spot removal and ipl pigmentation removal to gentle laser pigmentation removal, our treatment is customized to your skin needs.
And because many clients present concerns on their hands, arms, legs, neck or chest in addition to the face, our treatment protocols address these extended areas of sun and pigment damage as well.
-
Face
IPL can target visible pigmentation, redness, freckles, brown spots, and uneven tone across the face, helping create a clearer and more balanced complexion.
Face + Neck
Treating the face and neck together can help create more consistent results when sun damage, redness, or pigmentation extends beyond the face.
Face + Neck + Décolleté
For more comprehensive correction, IPL can treat the face, neck, and décolleté together. This is particularly helpful when visible sun damage and pigmentation affect the upper chest as well as the face.
Hands
The hands often show visible signs of accumulated sun exposure. IPL can target freckles, brown spots, age spots, and uneven pigmentation to create a clearer, more even appearance.
Hands can be treated as a standalone service or added to a qualifying face package for $125 per session.
-
Clients love the IPL laser facial benefits because they’re noticeable, progressive, and long-lasting. After a series of treatments, you can expect:
Brighter, clearer complexion
Even skin tone with fewer spots
Reduced redness and flushing
Healthier skin barrier
Smaller-looking pores
Reduced acne and inflammation
A more radiant, youthful glow
This is why many choose an IPL laser facial over traditional facials when they want deeper corrective results.
Because we also treat hands, arms, legs, neck and chest, clients benefit from a more holistic reduction of pigmentation and sun-damage, not just on the face but on visible and exposed areas beyond.
-
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) delivers controlled pulses of light that are absorbed by pigment and vascular lesions. The heat generated destroys excess pigment, shrinks broken capillaries, and stimulates collagen production—without damaging surrounding tissues.
Whether on the face, hands, arms, legs, neck or chest, the same underlying mechanism applies—targeting sun-spots, freckles, pigmented lesions and diffused sun damage across multiple body zones.
Lumecca IPL Before and After Result
Targets the Root: Rosacea, Acne Scars & Sun Damage
-
Rosacea Relief
The light energy used in IPL helps calm visible blood vessels and reduce chronic redness. Many clients see meaningful improvement with our ipl treatment for rosacea, and those needing deeper vascular correction often respond well to ipl laser for rosacea as part of their personalized plan. For more persistent redness, we may recommend a series of sessions that work similarly to an ipl laser treatment for rosacea, helping restore a more balanced, even complexion.
-
Pigmentation Correction
For stubborn discoloration and sun-induced spots, IPL breaks up pigment at both surface and deeper levels. This makes the treatment an excellent option for concerns like IPL for pigmentation and those needing support after years of UV exposure, such as ipl laser treatment for sun damage. Clients dealing with redness and pigment together may also benefit from targeted ipl treatment for rosacea when both conditions overlap.
We also extend this pigmentation correction to the hands, arms, legs, neck and chest-areas that often bear sun-damage and freckles yet are overlooked-in which our protocols adjust accordingly.
-
Acne & Scars
IPL helps reduce inflammation while supporting clearer, smoother skin. Its ability to fade discoloration and brighten tone makes ipl for acne scars a valuable addition to acne-focused treatment plans.
What to Expect During Your Visit
-
We evaluate skin tone, concerns, and goals to ensure the safest, most effective IPL laser treatment.
-
A cool gel is applied, and the handheld device delivers soothing pulses of light—most clients describe it as a quick snap.
-
Brown spots may darken before flaking off naturally. Redness typically calms within hours.
-
Expect gradual brightening and clarity over several weeks. Most clients see best results after 3–5 sessions.
-
Your treatment is customized for your skin tone, hair color, and goals for maximum safety and results.
If you’re treating the face together with the hands or arms or any other area such as the legs, neck or chest, we design a comprehensive plan to treat multiple zones safely in the same visit.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
IPL is ideal for individuals experiencing sun damage, discoloration, redness, pigmentation, acne scars, or general dullness. Our specialists will guide you through whether ipl photofacial treatment or laser photofacial is best for your skin type.
Particularly if you’ve noticed pigmentation or sun-spots on your hands, arms, legs, neck or chest in addition to your face, you’re an excellent candidate for our expanded treatment zones.

IPL photofacial treatments are most popular on the face, but they are also highly effective on the hands, arms, legs, neck, and chest. These areas commonly show sun damage, pigmentation, freckles, and sun spots, making them ideal for IPL correction. Treating multiple zones together helps create an even, refreshed look.
-
IPL treats a wide range of concerns, including sun damage, brown spots, freckles, pigmentation, rosacea, redness, acne scars, and uneven skin tone. It targets the root of discoloration, making it ideal for correcting both facial pigmentation and sun-damaged areas like the hands, arms, legs, neck, and chest.
-
Yes. The neck and chest respond extremely well to IPL, especially when these areas have sun damage, freckles, or pigmentation caused by age or UV exposure. Many clients choose to treat these areas at the same time as the face for more uniform results.
-
Most clients see best results after 3–5 IPL sessions, spaced 3–4 weeks apart. The number of sessions depends on the severity of brown spots, pigmentation, redness, or sun damage and whether you are treating additional areas like the hands, arms, legs, neck, or chest.
-
Downtime is minimal. Treated dark spots may temporarily darken and then naturally flake off over several days. Mild redness or warmth is normal and fades quickly. This applies to all treated zones-face, hands, arms, legs, neck, and chest.
