To ensure you receive the best possible outcome, we utilize the cutting-edge Lumecca Peak IPL device. This state-of-the-art technology delivers superior, long-lasting results that far surpass what over-the-counter topical treatments can offer. Trust our experts to provide you with the highest quality of care, creating a personalized experience that leads to transformative improvements in your skin tone and clarity.

What to Expect at Pure Skin

Your journey begins with an initial consultation at our Grand Rapids office. We evaluate your skin, listen to your goals, and confirm that Lumecca Peak IPL therapy fits your needs. Our providers outline the treatment process, expected results, and at-home care recommendations.

During the procedure, you will see a bright flash of light from the handheld device. Patients often describe the physical sensation as a gentle snap from a rubber band. You might experience a mild warming sensation and temporary redness immediately after the session, which usually fades within an hour.

Over the next 24 to 48 hours, your pigmented spots may darken. These spots typically flake off over the following week. Because your skin becomes more sensitive to sunlight, we require you to avoid direct sunlight and tanning for at least six weeks post-treatment. We also require you to arrive for your session with untanned skin.

Who is an Ideal Candidate for IPL Therapy?

Ideal candidates for IPL therapy have generally healthy skin and want to fix uneven skin tone, chronic redness, or visible veins. We can apply this versatile treatment to multiple parts of your body. Common treatment areas include the face, neck, décolletage, legs, hands, and arms.

To achieve the best results, you must commit to a series of sessions. You also need to follow all post-treatment care instructions closely, especially keeping your skin protected from the sun.

Frequently Asked Questions About Lumecca Peak IPL Therapy

What is the main difference between Lumecca® and other IPL devices?

Lumecca Peak is one of the most powerful IPL modalities available. It uses next-level photothermolysis technology for faster, more comfortable and more noticeable outcomes. 

When administered by a trained medical technician, Lumecca Peak IPL is considered safe for the right patient. It’s important that you complete an initial consultation before electing to undergo IPL treatments. 

Lumecca Peak stands out as a cutting-edge IPL technology, featuring a groundbreaking cooling tip that prioritizes your comfort throughout the treatment process. This innovative design ensures a soothing experience, regardless of your sensitivity to heat. Should you have any concerns about discomfort, rest assured that our medical facility is fully equipped with advanced tools to address and alleviate any pain issues, allowing you to focus on achieving optimal results with peace of mind

With Lumecca Peak IPL, it’s normal for patients to need only 1 – 3 sessions versus 4 – 6 with other photofacial devices. The total number of treatments needed will depend on the severity of your concern, your skin type and your desired outcome. 

Most patients will begin to notice results of their Lumecca Peak IPL treatments within a few days of the first session, with improved results over time. 

The skin issues treated by Lumecca Peak IPL therapy can typically only be managed, not cured. The longevity of the results of your IPL therapy will depend on your body’s own chemistry, and your lifestyle. We recommend you avoid the sun and commit to a home care regimen that includes daily use of antioxidants and sunscreen to protect your skin from further damage.
