About the Service
At Elite Style Polyclinic, our Lumecca treatment offers a safe and effective solution for vascular lesions such as spider veins, rosacea-related redness, cherry angiomas, and broken capillaries. Using FDA-approved technologies like Lumecca IPL alongside advanced lasers (e.g., Pulsed Dye Laser, Nd:YAG), we precisely target blood vessels without damaging surrounding skin, restoring a clear, even complexion with minimal discomfort and no downtime.
How Lumecca Treatment Works
Step 1: Consultation & Diagnosis
- First, we assess the type of lesion (e.g., facial telangiectasia, leg veins) and evaluate your skin sensitivity.
- Additionally, dermoscopy or vascular imaging is used to accurately map the treatment areas.
Step 2: Customized Treatment
- Laser Therapy: Heat selectively collapses abnormal vessels (1–3 sessions).
- Intense Pulsed Light (IPL): For diffuse redness or small veins.
- Sclerotherapy (for larger leg veins): Injectable solution to dissolve vessels.
Step 3: Aftercare & Results
- Following treatment, temporary redness or swelling can occur, typically lasting 24 to 48 hours.
- To optimize healing, sun avoidance and gentle skincare are essential.
Ideal Candidates for Lumecca Treatment
- Facial Redness/Rosacea – Diffuse flushing or visible capillaries.
- Spider Veins – On legs, nose, or cheeks.
- Cherry Angiomas – Harmless but bothersome red moles.
- Post-Injury Vascular Marks – From trauma or surgery.
- All Skin Types – Safe for darker tones (with Nd:YAG laser).
Note: Varicose veins require specialized medical intervention—we’ll refer you if needed.
Quick answers to questions you may have
Q1: Does it hurt?
A: Generally, most patients feel only a mild snap, similar to a rubber band flick. However, if you prefer, a numbing cream can be applied to increase comfort during the procedure.
Q2: How many sessions are needed?
A: Typically, 1–3 sessions are sufficient for treating small lesions. On the other hand, larger areas like rosacea often require 3–5 sessions to achieve optimal results.
Q3: Are results permanent?
A: Treated vessels usually do not return; nevertheless, new vessels might form over time. Therefore, occasional maintenance treatments are recommended to keep your skin clear.
Q4: Can I wear makeup after?
A: Yes, makeup can be applied after 24 hours. It is advisable to use mineral-based makeup to protect your skin during the healing process.
Q5: Why choose laser over creams?
A: While topical creams might temporarily reduce redness, laser treatments such as Lumecca work by eliminating blood vessels at the structural level. Consequently, they offer much longer-lasting and effective results.
