The face is the area InMode names first for Lumecca, "especially on the face and décolleté". The US label names it in words, facial telangiectasias, the fine red vessels, alongside the benign pigmented lesions that are sun spots and freckles. Lumecca is FDA-cleared in the US for both, and in a 2025 analysis of 41 trials the one that measured faces reported good to excellent results in 74.6% of treated facial areas. Usually three sessions about four weeks apart in our practice, at Lumecca Clinic, 130 Harley Street, with the price in writing at a free consultation.
What it does on the face
The flash of light is absorbed by the brown of a sun spot and the red of a vessel, which darken and flake or fade over one to two weeks while the skin around them is left alone. Sun spots, freckles, the diffuse redness of rosacea and the thread veins beside the nose and across the cheeks all respond, and the face is treated as a whole or zone by zone. Lines and texture are structure, not colour, and for those we provide Morpheus8 and Genius RF microneedling at our sister clinics; the clinician plans the combination at the free consultation.
The session and after
The cooled window on the skin, a snap with each flash, about 20 to 30 minutes for the full face. Pink and warm for a few hours, the spots darker and flaking over one to two weeks, sunscreen every day and no sun for the four weeks around each session in our practice. The pigmentation page and the rosacea and thread veins page cover each concern, and the sessions page the course.
Who it suits
Fair to olive skin with sun damage, redness or thread veins on the face, with no current tan. Melasma is on the label and needs a doctor's plan first, and any mark that has changed shape or colour is checked by a doctor before any light treatment. The full guide covers the rest.
