Cutera LimeLight Facial™ at Terrell Clinic
The LimeLight Facial™ is customizable treatment for reducing redness, along with the visible signs of tiny veins, brown spots and sun damage. Technically speaking, Cutera’s LimeLight Facial™ is ideal for treating pigmented and vascular lesions, particularly those previously treated that did not respond well, while improving the skin tone and imperfections caused by photodamage.
The LimeLight Facial™ is used to treat the face, neck, and décolleté.
How LimeLight Facial™ Works
Through the simple, safe use of heat delivered by a pulse of light applied to the dermis, LimeLight Facial™ directly treats brown or red cells and lifts the pigmentation.
What to Expect
Most treatments take place in less than an hour, although this depends on the patient and the area being treated. Patients report minor discomfort during the treatment commonly referred to as a slight pinching or stinging sensation. A gel can be applied in advance to cool the areas before treatment; however, topical anesthetics are normally not required.
Results are generally apparent within one to three treatments, although additional treatments may be required.
Post Treatment: What to Expect
Immediately after your treatment, the brown spots and treated areas will darken and your skin may appear a bit red temporarily. Some minor swelling can also occur, however this should last no longer than a day. Makeup can be applied to help mask the redness and swelling. Within one to three weeks, the areas that darkened will flake off the surface of your skin and fade away. Your overall complexion should improve. Ultimately, to reduce the risk of further red or brown spots, wear broad spectrum sunscreen daily.
