Lumixa Phototherapy System
Lumixa is a topical photoconverter gel that is applied to the skin and then activated under a professional LED light to produce Fluorescent Light Energy (FLE), which generates multiple hyperpulsed wavelengths benefiting both the epidermis and dermis. Treatments with Lumixa stimulate fibroblasts to increase collagen, target the intrinsic signs of ageing and reactivate the skin matrix.
Why Lumixa over standard LED?
A stand-alone LED treatment provides amazing benefits; however, Lumixa generates a wide spectrum of wavelengths, which ‘supercharges’ the benefits of a standard LED treatment by up to 7 times in a single 15-minute treatment. Fast and comfortable with little to no downtime, Lumixa FLE treatments will help repair, regenerate and energise skin.
