Botox & Dysport
Dosed unit by unit, so lines soften and your face still moves when you laugh. The two-week fine-tune is part of every plan.
Lumen is Sarah Nakamura's studio in Mill Valley, and she's the only injector you'll see. Every plan starts at the lowest dose that can work, so you leave looking rested and fresher, and still completely yourself. If waiting is the better call, that's what she'll tell you.

What to expect
There’s no rushing and no upsell, just three unhurried steps from the first conversation to a result your friends can’t quite name.

First, a conversation
Sarah sits down to understand what you'd like to change and why. You'll get an honest read on what would help, what it costs, and whether now is even the right time.

Then, the lightest touch
Every plan starts conservatively, by design. You leave looking rested and a little fresher, never frozen, because the point is you on your best day and not a different face.

Two weeks later
Your follow-up is booked before you leave. Only then do you decide whether to add anything at all, which means smaller invoices and a result no one can quite name.

These five are the whole list. Sarah performs each one personally, and every card shows its starting price.
Dosed unit by unit, so lines soften and your face still moves when you laugh. The two-week fine-tune is part of every plan.
Placed only where volume has actually been lost (cheeks, lips, the corners of the mouth), half a syringe at a time, with a follow-up before anything more is added.
Thirty minutes of cleansing, gentle extraction, and a hydrating serum infusion. Calmer, brighter skin the same day, gentle enough for the week of an event.
Fine needles and your own plasma rebuild collagen in acne scars and crepey skin. Expect a weekend of redness, and real change by the third session.
Pulsed light lifts sun spots and calms redness. Spots darken first, then flake away within a week; most complexions want two to three rounds.
“I've never felt rushed or upsold. They talked me out of something I asked for and recommended less. I trust them completely.”

“Subtle, natural, exactly what I wanted. Friends keep asking what's different and can't put their finger on it.”
“The consultation alone was worth it. Clear about what would help, honest about what wouldn't.”

The consultation is complimentary. You’ll leave with a plan and an exact quote, and it’s fine to go home and think it over.
