Brown age spots on the backs of the hands give away age faster than the face, and the hands are among the areas InMode names for Lumecca, "also on the arms, hands and even legs". Lumecca is FDA-cleared in the US for benign pigmented lesions, and in a 2025 analysis of 41 trials the one that measured both reported good to excellent results in 90% of treated hand areas against 74.6% of facial areas. Usually three sessions about four weeks apart in our practice, both hands in one short session, at Lumecca Clinic, 130 Harley Street, with the price in writing at a free consultation.
What it does on the hands
The brown of each spot absorbs the flash, darkens and flakes over one to two weeks, and the backs of the hands even out over the course. Thinning, crepey skin on the hands is structure, not colour, and for that we provide Morpheus8 at our sister clinic; the clinician plans the combination at the free consultation and says what suits prominent veins.
The session and after
The cooled window on the skin, a snap with each flash, about 10 minutes for both hands. Pink and warm for a few hours, the spots darker and flaking over one to two weeks, sunscreen or gloves outdoors 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 on the backs of the hands, with no current tan; any spot that has changed shape or colour is checked by a doctor before any light treatment. The arms page covers the forearms, often treated with the hands, and the full guide the rest.
