If you notice visible blood vessels on your face or a flushing appearance, you may have rosacea. The Med Spa on Randolph offers IPL therapy using the cutting-edge Lumecca device to tackle rosacea concerns and help you achieve smooth, clear skin.
Manage Unwanted
Redness With IPL
Rosacea treatment addresses the persistent redness and visible blood vessels commonly associated with the condition. Intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy offers an advanced solution for rosacea. By emitting controlled pulses of light, IPL targets and minimizes redness, broken capillaries, and other signs of rosacea. This non-invasive procedure promotes clearer skin and a more balanced complexion, helping you effectively manage the symptoms.
Symptoms Treated:
- Persistent facial redness
- Visible blood vessels (telangiectasia)
- Flushing and blushing
- Pimple-like bumps (papules)
- Visible facial veins
- Irritated, sensitive skin
The Science
Lumecca IPL therapy involves channeling broad-spectrum light wavelengths to target hemoglobin in blood vessels and melanin in the skin. The light energy is absorbed, transforming into heat, which selectively damages the dilated blood vessels and hyperactive pigmented cells responsible for rosacea symptoms. This process prompts your body to eliminate and metabolize the damaged blood vessels and capillaries, leading to the gradual reduction of redness, visible blood vessels, and other symptoms of rosacea.
The Benefits:
- Reduced redness and flushing
- Improved skin texture and tone
- Non-invasive solution
- Quick and convenient sessions
- Minimal discomfort during treatment
- Little to no downtime
Your Experience
Treatment
During the treatment, you’ll be comfortably seated while wearing protective eyewear. The skincare specialist will apply a cooling gel to the targeted area. The handheld Lumecca device will be moved across your skin to emit gentle pulses of light. You might feel a mild sensation resembling a rubber band snap as the IPL light is delivered. The procedure’s duration varies based on the treated area’s size. Afterward, any residual gel will be removed, and you can resume your daily activities immediately.
Recovery
After the treatment, you may experience mild redness or a slight warm sensation in the treated area, which typically subsides within a few hours. Some individuals may notice a temporary darkening of spots, which will naturally fade. It’s important to avoid direct sun exposure and apply sunscreen as instructed. Makeup can be applied immediately. For optimal results, multiple sessions may be recommended. Your skincare specialist will provide tailored aftercare guidelines and limitations based on your needs.
Results
Results from Lumecca IPL treatment for rosacea become noticeable within a week or two after the initial session. However, a series of sessions might be necessary for optimal outcomes. Over time, you’ll see reduced redness, visible blood vessels, and other symptoms. Maintenance sessions may be recommended to prolong the benefits. Consistent skincare practices, sun protection, and a healthy lifestyle can extend the longevity of the results.
