Pre-Lumecca Essentials
Radiance In The Making
- Embrace the pale: Avoid tanning (natural or artificial) for 4 weeks pre-treatment. Your skin’s natural tone allows for optimal energy absorption and results.
- Pause the potions: Discontinue retinoids, glycolic acid, and other potent actives 5-7 days before. This minimizes skin sensitivity, ensuring a comfortable treatment experience.
- Protect and perfect: Apply broad-spectrum SPF 30+ daily in the weeks leading up to treatment. Think of it as pre-gaming for your skin’s health and safety.
- Hair-free zone: Shave the treatment area 24-48 hours before your appointment. Smooth skin allows the light to penetrate more effectively.
- Bare-faced beauty: Arrive with a clean, makeup-free face. Let your skin breathe and prepare for its glow-up.
- Hydration station: Increase your water intake in the days before treatment. Well-hydrated skin responds better to light-based therapies.
- Cool it on the heat: Avoid hot showers, saunas, and strenuous exercise 24 hours pre-treatment. Keep your skin calm and cool for optimal results.
- Medication check: Inform us of any new medications, especially antibiotics or acne treatments. Your safety is our priority, and some meds can increase light sensitivity.
Illumination Station
- Chill out: Apply cool compresses for 10-15 minutes every hour on treatment day. Embrace the spa-like experience while soothing your rejuvenating skin.
- Hands off: Resist touching or scratching the treated area for 48 hours. Let your skin work its magic without interference.
- Slather on that SPF: Apply (and reapply) broad-spectrum SPF 30+ for at least two weeks post-treatment. Your renewed skin deserves red-carpet level protection.
- Makeup moratorium: Give your skin a 24-hour breather before applying makeup. When you do, opt for mineral-based products to nurture your fresh complexion.
- Lukewarm is the new hot: Stick to lukewarm water for cleansing for 48 hours. Treat your skin like the delicate flower it is.
- Gentle giants only: Use mild, fragrance-free skincare products for 5-7 days. Coddle your complexion with soothing ingredients like aloe and niacinamide.
- Moisture mania: Keep skin hydrated with alcohol-free moisturizers. Think of it as giving your skin a long, refreshing drink.
- Flake finesse: If you experience minor flaking, resist the urge to pick or exfoliate. Let your skin shed naturally, revealing the glow beneath.
- Cool it on the heat (part two): Avoid hot showers, saunas, and strenuous exercise for 48 hours post-treatment. Your skin is basking in its renewal – don’t make it sweat it out.
- Patience is a virtue: Results develop over 1-3 weeks – resist the urge for immediate touch-ups. Good things come to those who wait (and follow aftercare instructions).
- Boost the brilliance: Consider adding antioxidant-rich serums to your routine after the initial healing period. Feed your skin’s radiance from the inside out.
- Schedule your sequel: Book your next session 3-4 weeks out for optimal results. Consistency is key in your journey to timeless beauty.

What is IPL Lumecca treatment and how does it work?
Are IPL treatments painful?
How many IPL Lumecca sessions do I need to see results?
What skin concerns can IPL Lumecca treat?
Lumecca is the multi-tasking superhero of skin treatments. It tackles sun spots, age spots, vascular lesions, rosacea, and freckles with equal vigor. It’s also a godsend for overall skin tone and texture. Whether you’re battling the signs of sun-soaked Arizona days or simply want to turn back the clock, Lumecca has you covered.
How long do the results of IPL Lumecca treatment last?
While Lumecca can’t stop time, it certainly knows how to slow it down. With proper skincare and sun protection, you can expect to bask in your radiant results for months on end. However, remember that your skin is constantly exposed to the elements. Think of Lumecca as part of your beauty maintenance routine – like getting your roots touched up, but for your entire complexion.

Lumecca is the lunch-break beauty treatment you’ve been dreaming of. While you may experience some redness for a few hours post-treatment (think of it as a post-workout glow), there’s minimal downtime. You might notice your pigmented spots darkening before they flake away – consider it the skin equivalent of “out with the old, in with the new!”
How much does IPL Lumecca treatment cost in North Scottsdale?
Investing in your skin is always en vogue. While prices can vary based on individual needs, think of Lumecca as the Chanel handbag of skincare – a timeless investment in your beauty. We offer personalized consultations to determine the perfect treatment plan for your budget and beauty goals.
Is IPL Lumecca safe for all skin types?
Lumecca loves most skin types, but it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. It’s particularly effective for fair to medium skin tones. If your complexion is on the deeper end of the spectrum, don’t fret! We’ll assess your skin during a consultation and may recommend alternative treatments that are better suited to your unique melanin magic.
How is IPL Lumecca different from other laser treatments?

IPL Photofacial - Frequently Asked Medical Questions
While we’d love to sprinkle Lumecca magic on everyone, there are times when even the most fabulous treatments need to take a backseat to your health. Here are the top 5 medical reasons that might temporarily derail your journey to radiance.
Remember, these are general guidelines. Your unique skin story is best told through a one-on-one consultation with our experts. We’re here to ensure your path to luminosity is as safe as it is effective. After all, true radiance begins with healthy, happy skin!
1. Sun-Kissed Complications
If you’ve been basking in the Arizona sun or fresh from a tanning bed tryst, it’s a no-go. Recently tanned skin is more susceptible to damage from light-based treatments. Think of it as your skin needing a little “me time” before its Lumecca date.
2. Pregnancy Glow Only, Please
Expecting a little bundle of joy? Congratulations! But let’s put a pin in that Lumecca appointment. While there’s no evidence of harm, we err on the side of caution when it comes to mom and baby’s well-being. Your natural pregnancy glow will have to suffice for now!
