About
A boutique studio built on medical rigor and quiet good taste.
Meet the medical director
Dr. Sophia Auclair, MD
Founder & Medical Director
Dr. Auclair founded Lumen in 2018 after a decade in internal medicine and a fellowship in aesthetic and regenerative practice. She built the studio around the conviction that aesthetic medicine done slowly, precisely, and with restraint is the only kind that holds up. She personally trained every injector on staff and sets the clinical protocols for every device on the floor.
Born and raised between Miami and Paris, Dr. Auclair was drawn to medicine by a deep interest in the intersection of health and confidence. After completing her internal medicine training at Jackson Memorial, she pursued a fellowship in aesthetic medicine where she studied under two of the leading facial anatomists in the country. She spent three years working exclusively with post-surgical patients before pivoting entirely to cosmetic and regenerative practice. Lumen is the direct result of what she wished existed for her own patients: an environment that felt like a quiet design studio, staffed entirely by medical providers, and committed to results that accumulate slowly and gracefully over time.

Camille Reyes, NP-C
Lead Nurse Practitioner Injector
Eight years of aesthetic-only practice with a focus on natural midface restoration, lip balancing, and advanced neuromodulator technique. Camille is a master injector for the RHA® Collection and a senior trainer for Sciton energy devices. She is known for an exceptionally light hand and a gift for managing patient expectations.
Camille joined Lumen in 2019 after spending six years building one of the most respected injection programs at a Coral Gables dermatology group. She chose to move to a physician-owned practice specifically because she wanted the medical rigor of working under a full-time MD. Her technique philosophy is shaped by restraint: she rarely adds as much product as a patient requests on a first visit, preferring to layer over time and adjust at check-ins. She is one of fewer than 200 RHA® Collection Master Injectors in the United States.
Marisol Vega, RN, BSN
RN Injector & Laser Specialist
Five years of aesthetic experience with a particular focus on lip and chin balancing, and on building laser protocols that are safe and effective across all Fitzpatrick skin types I through VI.
Marisol came to aesthetics after three years in surgical nursing at a Level I trauma center. The transition gave her exceptional technical precision and a calm she brings to every appointment. Her specialty in skin-of-color laser protocols is rare in Miami's aesthetic market and reflects both her training and her own experience as a Latina patient navigating aesthetic care. She runs Lumen's laser program and helped develop the studio's 5-step pre-treatment skin prep protocol that significantly reduces side-effect risk in darker skin tones.
Ana Beltran, LE
Lead Medical Aesthetician
Certified in advanced chemical peels and microneedling. Manages the studio's HydraFacial and clinical skincare programs and conducts the digital Visia® skin analysis for all new patient consultations.
Ana has been working in medical aesthetics for seven years, spending her first four at a high-volume dermatology practice before joining Lumen at its founding. She runs every new patient's Visia® skin analysis, serves as the studio's product educator, and manages a roster of monthly HydraFacial and peel clients who have been with her for years. Her calm, methodical approach to skin health is a counterpart to the injection side of the practice: she builds plans over 6 to 12 months and believes the skin responds best to patience.

Always with a provider
Our philosophy
Four quiet rules we will never break.
Restraint is the highest skill
The hardest thing to do in aesthetic medicine is say no. We say it often. The most beautiful results are the ones that accumulate slowly over years, not the ones that peak at 72 hours post-treatment.
Medical always means medical
Every injectable and energy-based treatment is performed by an MD, NP, or RN under direct physician supervision. We do not delegate clinical procedures to estheticians. Ever.
Start with the concern
We design plans around what a patient wants to address, not around the devices we happen to own. Sometimes the right answer is a prescription topical. Sometimes it is nothing yet.
Plans should taper
Aesthetic care that escalates every year is not a plan, it is a runway. Our goal is for patients to reach a point of graceful maintenance, not dependency.
What sets us apart
Medical-grade care looks different in practice.
