I applied my tinted sunscreen every morning, and again when I was outside all day.
I kept lipbalm with SPF in my bag and even wore a hat when I was outside for extended periods.
It's a good first start, but the ocean saltwater and hiking sweat betrayed me and I didn't make it through the summer without new freckles and a sunburn or two.
Am I not the only one?
Don't worry, Glow Haus MD is here to save the day with Lumecca IPL.
What is Lumecca IPL?
Lumecca IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is an advanced laser treatment that targets pigmentation, sun damage, and redness. It stimulates natural skin repair, leaving your complexion brighter and more even.
The Benefits of Lumecca IPL include:
Reduces sunspots, age spots, and pigmentation
Improves skin tone and texture
Minimal downtime
Long-lasting results with proper skincare
What Should You Expect During Treatment?
If you don't have a preferred sunscreen already, you can expect that one of our clinicans will talk you into one before you leave
Quick sessions (20–30 minutes)
Gentle pulses of light targeting problem areas
Mild redness may occur, typically resolving in a few hours
My redness was gone within a day and I noticed a difference within 2 weeks or so. Although I'm excited to see the results after 3-5 sessons per the recommendations of Lumecca. Lumecca stimulates the skin's natural repair process, so your skin continues to improve gradually over several weeks.
How Long Results Last
Results can last 6–12 months or longer, depending on your lifestyle, sun exposure, and skincare routine.
Optimal results are expected to appear after 3-5 treatments spaced 3-4 weeks apart based on your skin's condition and severity of sun damage.
Maintenance sessions are often recommended once or twice a year to keep pigmentation and redness at bay.
Post-Treatment Skin Care Tips
Sun Protection is Key
Use a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ daily, even on cloudy days.
Avoid direct sun exposure immediately after treatment to prevent new pigmentation.
Gentle Skincare Products
Avoid harsh exfoliants or retinoids for 3–5 days after treatment.
Use soothing moisturizers and hydrating serums to support healing.
Stay Hydrated
Drinking water helps your skin recover and maintain its natural glow.
Avoid Heat & Sweat
Skip saunas, hot yoga, or intense workouts for the first 24–48 hours.
Follow-Up Treatments
Stick to your recommended session schedule for best long-term results.
Pro Tip: Lumecca works best when combined with a consistent skincare routine: gentle cleanser, daily SPF, and antioxidant-rich serums. This helps prolong your results and keeps your skin radiant.
