"Nothing can dim the light that shines from within."
Lumen (“light” in Latin) was named to celebrate the light. The light that is all around us. The light that radiates from within us. The light that produces a glow that reveals natural beauty.
The Lumen Center was founded in 2005 by Dr. Andrew Kwak, a minimally invasive surgeon, who is renowned for his artistry, attention to detail and producing natural-looking results.
The Lumen Center is located in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania and provides comprehensive cosmetic care for every stage of life: Skin care, spider and varicose vein treatments, hair transplants, and noninvasive face body contouring procedures. We provide the most innovative, gentle, and non-invasive techniques based on Dr. Kwak’s experience in developing minimally invasive procedures at Penn. We strive for excellence in everything we do – driving us to deliver the very best aesthetic results and high-quality, compassionate care.
Our commitment to our patients shines through every interaction. When you entrust us to help you look and feel your best, we treat you as we would our own family.
