A first visit at Luma is shorter when the right things come with you: your history, your questions and a sense of what you want to change.
What to bring, and what we do with it.
Bring your medication list, any previous records or photographs and the questions you have been saving. Your clinician reads them before the examination, so the visit is spent on the decision rather than on paperwork.
- Which records, photographs or results should I send ahead?
- How much of the first visit is conversation, and how much is examination?
- What will I take home in writing?
Put this perspective into practice.
Each guide below covers what the service involves and the questions worth bringing to your consultation.
Biostimulatory treatments
Collagen-stimulating injectables that rebuild support gradually over months, for a result that reads as rested rather than done.
- How would a clinician decide whether a biostimulatory product is appropriate for my goals?
- What does the evidence show for the specific product, and which risks or delayed effects should I understand?
- How do treatment planning, follow-up and reversibility differ from other injectable options?
Laser resurfacing
Fractional laser resurfacing for sun damage, fine lines and texture, planned around your skin tone and your calendar.
- How do my skin tone, skin history and medications affect resurfacing suitability?
- Which device and treatment approach is being discussed, and what are its risks and alternatives?
- What preparation, recovery support and follow-up would the clinician plan for my circumstances?
IPL & photofacials
Broad-spectrum light that lifts sun spots and redness in a series of three, with no time off.
- How will the clinician assess the cause of my pigment or redness concern before considering IPL?
- How do skin tone, sun exposure and medicines affect eligibility and risk?
- What differences between IPL and laser options, treatment limits and aftercare should I understand?
