HYPERPIGMENTATION

InMode Lumecca IPL

Confidence Starts with Clear Skin

At Finlay Medical and Aesthetic Clinic in Tampa, FL, we understand the frustration of hyperpigmentation. Whether it’s sunspots, age spots, or melasma, these dark patches can diminish your skin’s radiance. Our InMode Lumecca Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment is designed to target these imperfections, revealing a more even and luminous complexion.

What is InMode Lumecca IPL?

InMode Lumecca IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is an advanced, non-invasive treatment that harnesses the power of light energy to transform your skin. It’s a cutting-edge technology that goes beyond traditional IPL, delivering up to three times more energy to target and eliminate the root cause of skin imperfections.

 

Unlike traditional IPL, Lumecca focuses on specific wavelengths of light that are highly effective in treating both pigmented and vascular lesions. This means it can address a wide range of skin concerns, from age spots and freckles to rosacea and broken capillaries.

How does Lumecca IPL Work?

Lumecca IPL works by delivering intense pulses of light to the skin, which are absorbed by the pigment in the target areas. This light energy breaks down the excess melanin, causing the pigmented spots to gradually fade away. The treatment also stimulates collagen production, improving the overall texture and elasticity of the skin. Lumecca IPL is effective on various parts of the body, including the face, neck, décolletage, and hands.
