Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Find answers to the most common questions about Photo Therapy. If you can’t find what you’re looking for here, please contact us.

How long does a typical session take, will I need downtime, and when can I return to work or errands?

Most sessions last 20 to 30 minutes. Photo therapy is noninvasive so there is little to no downtime; many clients return to work or errands right away. You may notice mild warmth or slight redness for an hour, and we usually recommend avoiding strong topical retinoids or chemical exfoliants the day of treatment. Your clinician will give specific aftercare based on your skin and services performed that day.

I live in Berkeley – is Lumina easy to get to, and is parking available for after-work appointments?

Yes. Lumina in Schiller Park is an easy drive from Berkeley, typically about 20 minutes depending on traffic via local routes or I-294/I-290. We have onsite parking and flexible evening appointments most weekdays to accommodate commuters. We’ll also discuss the best appointment times when you book if you prefer after-work or weekend availability.

How many sessions will I need to see results, and will Lumina tailor a plan if I’m only available evenings after work in Berkeley?

Most people see noticeable improvement after 4 to 8 sessions spaced one to two times per week, then benefit from maintenance visits. At Lumina we customize frequency based on your skin type and goals and we can schedule treatment blocks during evening or weekend hours to fit a Berkeley commute. Your provider will outline an expected timeline and flexible scheduling options at the consultation.

How easy is it to get to Lumina in Schiller Park from Berkeley, and is parking available for a photo therapy appointment?

Lumina is an easy drive from Berkeley-typically about 25 to 35 minutes depending on traffic. We’re conveniently located near the O’Hare/Rosemont corridor, which makes access straightforward whether you’re coming by local roads or the highways. Client parking is available on-site, and we also have appointment times outside regular business hours to accommodate commuters who want to stop by after work.

What should I expect during my first photo therapy visit if I’m coming from Berkeley-how long will it take and is there any special aftercare?

Your first visit begins with a short, personalized consultation to review skin history and goals. Most sessions include cleansing, a test or targeted pass, and the main treatment-total time is usually 45 to 60 minutes. You may notice mild warmth or redness that typically fades within a few hours to a day. Aftercare is simple: avoid direct sun and use broad‑spectrum SPF 30+ daily, skip strong exfoliants or retinoids for 48 hours, and follow any tailored instructions your clinician gives. If appropriate, we can often complete the consultation and treatment in the same visit to save you a trip.
