Medical Director + Founder
Dr. Amara Sethi, MD, CCFP
Dr. Sethi practised full-scope family medicine for nine years before dedicating her practice to aesthetic medicine, and she runs Lumen the way she ran her clinic: history first, informed consent that actually informs, and a documented plan before any treatment.
She personally performs all first medical consultations, all advanced and corrective filler work, and is the physician on call for any complication — for Lumen patients and, not rarely, for patients treated elsewhere who need help.
Her standing rule for the clinic: if a treatment isn't in the patient's interest, the answer is no, kindly and with reasons. Roughly one in five consultations here ends with no treatment booked, and she considers that number a feature.
