Lumixa Treatment
Lumixa is a topical gel by biotech company FB Dermatology. Pioneered by Dr Francesco Bellini who developed the HIV treatment of today. Utilising innovative technology, Lumixa gel is activated with blue LED light. The gel performs a photoconversion – a chemical change in the skin cells effected by light. This produces Fluorescent Light Energy (FLE). This non-invasive, no downtime treatment is the key to reducing the signs of inflammageing skin and correcting intrinsic signs of ageing.
Lumixa Benefits
Lumixa Collagen Booster targets the signs and symptoms of Chronoageing: It is responsible for loss of volume, alteration of the skin texture and dry skin. Lumixa Collagen Booster can be used as a corrective treatment, improves skin density and provides a plumping effect.
Lumixa Age Control acts deeply within the skin by stimulating cellular regeneration and targeting the signs and symptoms of ageing.

LED Treatment
LED Light Therapy is the use of coloured light to treat a specific skin concern. Used alone or in conjunction with other therapies it has a profound positive effect on the skin. The tissues of the body easily absorb light and when absorbed, the light stimulates the body's own repair and regenerative mechanisms. A part of your cells called mitochondria, sometimes called the “power generators” of your cells, soak it up and make more energy.
LED Benefits
Red light: Activates collagen production to improve the visible signs of ageing (clinical trials performed by NASA), to restore glowing, healthy-looking skin. It can also be used to reduce age spots, sun damage, and overall redness, flushing, and dilated capillaries. Red light therapy can also reduce the appearance of bruising and reduce healing time. Results are often immediate.
Blue light: Kills acne-causing bacteria, without harming skin, to improve skin clarity and reduce future breakouts. Blue light is effective in the management of rosacea, eczema and other forms of inflammation. Scientifically proven to significantly reduce acne breakouts it can be used successfully when other treatments such as microdermabrasion or chemical peels are too harsh in times when the acne is highly active.
Infra-red light: Strengthens cellular structure and reduces inflammation. Increases circulation and the suppleness of skin. Tightens the skin and boosts cell turnover as well as boosting collagen production. Aids in detoxification and general rejuvenation.
LED Results
Your skin will feel revived with anti-ageing benefits building over time. Think of it as every single energy cell in your skin being 'revved up' by the LED just like a plant needs sunlight to photosynthesise. When calming inflammation is the desired effect this can be achieved by tailoring the colour and output to suit your skin condition perfectly.
When the correct LED device, colour, wavelength and frequency are used, LED is a complete powerhouse treatment for any skin type. Results are often immediate with optimum results gained after a series of LED, either as a stand-alone treatment or added to other procedures.
LED Recovery Time & Comfort Level
No recovery time.
During the treatment you may experience slight tingling & warmth while the gel is activating.
There are very few side effects with Lumixa. In sensitive skin, mild erythema may be observed due to the heat. Clients may experience bronzing of the skin and darkening of freckles and sunspots, which dissipates after the treatment course.
LED Recommended Sessions

Is LED Safe?
LED is totally safe because it is not UV light that comes from the sun. It’s a non-destructive, pain-free treatment. LED is non-photosensitising, so the treatment can be used all-year-round. It is not recommended for those taking acne medications and antibiotics or those with epilepsy due to it being a light-based treatment.
Goggles are worn during LED for comfort and to protect the eyes, although rest assured it does not cause eye damage like sunbeds.
Make-up can be applied immediately afterwards.
