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.
What is photo therapy and how does it improve skin tone and texture?
Photo therapy uses targeted light energy to calm inflammation, reduce pigmentation, and stimulate collagen production. At Lumina we tailor wavelengths and treatment settings to your concerns, so photo therapy can fade sunspots, ease rosacea or redness, and give skin a firmer, more even appearance over a series of sessions.
Am I a good candidate for photo therapy if I have sensitive skin, acne, or rosacea?
Many people with sensitivity, acne-prone skin, or rosacea can benefit, but candidacy depends on your skin type, recent treatments, and medications. We review your medical history during a no-rush consultation, adjust settings for sensitive skin, and recommend a safe treatment plan or alternatives if photo therapy is not ideal for you.
What should I expect during my first appointment and is there downtime afterward?
Your first visit begins with a personalized consultation and brief skin assessment, followed by a treatment that usually lasts 20 to 45 minutes. Common short-term effects include mild redness and warmth for a few hours to a couple of days; most clients return to work the same day and use light makeup if desired.
How should I prepare for photo therapy and what aftercare helps results last longer?
Avoid tanning, abrasive exfoliants, and photosensitizing medications in the two weeks before treatment and tell us about any recent procedures or isotretinoin use. After treatment, protect skin with broad-spectrum sunscreen, use gentle cleansers and moisturizers, and skip strong retinoids or chemical peels until your provider clears you. We give a written aftercare plan and follow-up schedule to optimize outcomes.
I live in Skokie; is Lumina easy to reach, is parking available, and can I combine photo therapy with other treatments in one visit?
Lumina in Schiller Park is a convenient drive from Skokie, typically 15 to 25 minutes depending on traffic, with easy access from I-90 and I-294 and just minutes from O’Hare and Rosemont. We offer free on-site parking and flexible evening and weekend appointments for after-work visits. Many local clients combine photo therapy with services like chemical peels, microneedling, or injectables in the same visit; during your consultation we’ll coordinate safe sequencing to minimize downtime and maximize results.
