The shoulders and the upper back burn and freckle in the sun, and in our practice the back is treated with Lumecca the same way as the chest. The US label covers truncal telangiectasias and benign pigmented lesions without naming the back, and no InMode page names it, and we say so plainly. 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 back
The brown of each spot and the red of each vessel absorb the flash and fade over one to two weeks, so the colour of the shoulders and upper back evens out over the course. Acne scars and texture on the back are structure, not colour, and for those we provide Morpheus8 and Genius RF microneedling at our sister clinics; the clinician plans the combination. No study measures the back alone.
The session and after
The cooled window on the skin, a snap with each flash, about 20 to 30 minutes for the upper back. Pink and warm for a few hours, the spots darker and flaking over one to two weeks, sunscreen on the back and a covered back in the sun for the four weeks around each session in our practice. The sessions page sets out the course.
Who it suits
Fair to olive skin with sun spots or freckling on the shoulders and upper back, with no current tan. Any mole that has changed is checked by a doctor before any light treatment, and the back is where moles are easiest to miss, so the clinician examines it first. The full guide covers the rest.
