Skincare Questions Answered – By Lumera Skin Clinique

Looking for answers about advanced skin treatments in Montreal?

You’re in the right place. We’ve compiled the most common questions from our clients — and answered them for you here.

RF Microneedling combines microneedles with radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen production and tighten the skin. It helps treat acne scars, fine lines, enlarged pores, and loose skin.

You may feel slight discomfort, but we apply a numbing cream beforehand. Most clients describe the sensation as “mild heat with a light prickling.”

Typically, 3–4 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart give the best results. Some people notice improvement even after the first session.

A chemical peel removes the top layer of dead skin to reveal a smoother, clearer complexion. We offer light, medium, and deep peels depending on your skin type and concern.

It depends on your goals. Microneedling is great for tightening and scarring, while chemical peels are better for pigmentation and texture. We’ll help you choose the right one during your consultation.

Yes — RF Microneedling is considered safe for all skin tones, including darker skin. Unlike some laser treatments, it does not target pigmentation and has minimal risk of hyperpigmentation when performed by trained professionals.

You may notice an initial glow within a few days, but real results like firmer skin and reduced scars usually appear after 4–6 weeks as collagen production increases.

It’s best to wait 24–48 hours before applying makeup, especially after microneedling or chemical peels. This allows your skin to breathe and heal properly.

Yes. We offer calming treatments like LED therapy and gentle extractions, along with skincare routines to help reduce inflammation and prevent future breakouts.

Some treatments are safe during pregnancy (like light facials and LED therapy), but others — like RF Microneedling, chemical peels, and HIFU — are not recommended. Always let us know in advance so we can customize your care.

HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) targets deeper layers of skin using ultrasound energy, especially for lifting and contouring. Unlike microneedling, it doesn’t use needles.

Absolutely! Many clients combine Hydrafacial with LED light therapy (red or infrared) for added glow, improved healing, and better product absorption.

Most treatments have little to no downtime. You may experience some redness or sensitivity for 1–2 days depending on the procedure.

Yes — we offer customized treatments for hyperpigmentation, including microneedling, chemical peels, and LED therapy. We also recommend skincare products for home use to maintain your results.
