Lumecca in Los Angeles, Orange County and San Francisco
The Lumecca system uses focused intense pulsed light (IPL) to treat pigments in the skin through photothermolysis. Lumecca works great for treating both dark and red pigments of the face, like Photoshopping your face. Unlike other modalities, Lumecca’s settings allow the user to optimize for both fair and dark skin patients common to Asian patients. Incorporate Lumecca to your skin regimen to keep your skin optimized and clear.
