WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT DURING AND AFTER LUMECCA?

During treatment, there will be a bright flash and a light snap of heat. Redness and warmth to the skin are normal after treatment and will subside an hour or two after treatment. Over the next 24-72 hours you may see your pigmented spots darkening. In the week coming, the pigmented lesions will flake off. Do not exfoliate or pick them off. Let pigmented lesions flake off on their own.

HOW MANY SESSIONS ARE RECOMMEND?

We do recommend multiple sessions to see the most improved skin appearance. A consultation is required prior to scheduling an appointment. In your consultation, your provider will create a treatment plan with you that will include how many treatments you’ll need as well as proper skin care that will enhance your results.
