Clearer skin tone and more even pigmentation are possible without invasive procedures. Lumecca is a high-powered IPL (intense pulsed light) treatment performed by Beverly Friedlander MD in Short Hills, New Jersey. Using advanced light technology, it breaks up discoloration, sun damage, and visible vessels to help refine your complexion and reduce signs of aging.
Dr. Bev, a board-certified plastic surgeon with more than 25 years of experience, performs each Lumecca session herself, ensuring medical precision from start to finish.
What is Lumecca?
Lumecca emits pulses of light that target melanin or hemoglobin in the skin. The light energy is absorbed by these pigments, breaking them down so your body can gradually flush them away.
Most sessions last about 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the treatment area. The sensation is often described as a light snap or flick on the skin. After treatment, pigmentation may temporarily darken before fading, and some redness or mild swelling may occur for a day or two.
What Lumecca Treats
What to Expect After Lumecca
