I love your practice. Everyone is both professional and very friendly/personable as well. It is always a pleasure to step through the doors! NEVER would anybody who knows me, believe I would offer my FACE (or any other body part, but especially the FACE) for needles, cannulas, laser "zizzing" or any other experience...BUT!!!! I do, and I love the results. It is the first time I have done something exclusively "pour moi" and I thank you all for the warm and friendly atmosphere!

Have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend, and i will see you lovely people in 2.5 weeks!

- Michele D., May 2010, after having SmartLipo of her chin/jowl region and injectables and Fraxel Laser Treatment on her face

I found Dr. Kwak and the LUMEN Laser Center on the web, and I am thrilled that I did. My initial contact was an email indicating my interest in the center, along with my concerns and apprehension based on past experiences with another doctor.  The staffperson from Dr. Kwak’s office promptly responded to my message with a phone call. She explained the state-of-the-art treatments that Dr. Kwak performed, and she put me at ease.

I met with Dr. Kwak, and he set up a course of treatment based on my vein problems.  He performed endovenous laser ablation on varicose veins and later sclerotherapy on smaller spider veins.  Dr. Kwak requires follow-up visits throughout the first year after treatment (not just one follow-up visit after treatment).  I was so impressed by this practice, and I felt confident that any problems would and could be addressed if necessary.

Not only did I have great results, but I also applaud the entire office staff.  Knowing my concerns, they constantly reassured and comforted me.  They have added to the wonderful experience I’ve had at the LUMEN Laser Center, and I truly enjoy going to the office to chat with them!

My legs look and feel great!  Friends have noticed and are also impressed with the success of the treatments.  I am so pleased, and I am already scheduled to visit with Dr. Kwak again in the fall for more sclerotherapy.  I am no longer apprehensive about treatments.  Dr. Kwak and the entire staff have alleviated any concerns I have for future treatments.  I truly am thrilled to have found them!

- Deb D., Wallingford, PA, May 2010

I was so tired of the way my clothes were fitting.  I was tired of the elastic waistband riding up and almost touching the bottom of my bra! I was losing confidence in my appearance fast.  I'm at the age of menopause and had tried everything to lose the pounds but my weight kept creeping up  - two or three pounds a year.  I got in touch with the LUMEN Laser Center and had a free consultation. It's been four months since I had the Lipo procedure on my abdomen and "love handles".  I've gone from a size 12 to a size 8!  Even in the past two weeks I've noticed my abdomen and back continue the toning and reshaping process.  My stomach looks like it did when I was in my twenties.  I have my confidence back. I even went out and bought a bathing suit, something I hadn't done in years!    About six weeks ago I had Vaser Lipo done on my thighs, knees, and arms. The results have been amazing! I could see an immediate 50% reduction in my arms!  Fifty percent!! I no longer have my underarm wings. In addition, I can now comfortably cross my legs!   And I know that as the weeks go by my body will continue to reshape and tone.  I can't wait!   Throughout the procedures and my recoveries I have felt so supported and cared for by the entire staff.  They are superb!  Dr. Kwak is truly a gifted artist and a highly trained technician with a gentle and pleasing demeanor.  l thoroughly trusted him and his abilities.

I am thrilled with my entire lipo experience! Everyone made me comfortable throughout the entire process, from my consultation to my fabulous results. My thighs look the way I wanted and no one suspects I had work done! I feel confident in my body now and would advise anyone to trust the abilities of Dr. Kwak and start feeling good about his or herself. I think you’re all wonderful.

I am really really really happy that I had this done. It has only been three months from my legs being done, but I have been in a bathing suit for over a month. It was a quick recovery and not painful at all. Everything is very smooth and you can't even tell I had anything done, and there are no incision marks whatsoever. I had the first areas done and then came back for additional areas and I'm so glad I did it that way.

Thank you very much, Dr. Kwak, Debbie & Jen!! You have a wonderful staff! Everyone was so helpful and easy to deal with on every aspect of this process. You wouldn't expect a surgical procedure to be a pleasant experience but you all made it one by being so kind and attentive.
I am ecstatic with my results in just one month and can't wait to see the final outcome. I recommend LUMEN Laser Center to everyone. Thank you again for making my procedure an easy and comfortable one.

Dr. Kwak had a very amazing technique and perfect demeanor, and he really made the whole experience very relaxing and pain-free. He has a very gentle touch.

- Matt Skahill, Acupuncturist, one week after having varicose vein laser treatment

I am SO HAPPY. Because the weight is gone from under my chin that gradually accumulated and I didn't even realize was there, I feel much lighter because the fat was taken out. I swear I look ten years younger already. I had no bruising, and the swelling is already gone.

- Patient quote three days after SmartLipo on her chin area

Everyone was so fantastic and I was so comfortable in the room. I am so thrilled. I have been wanting this procedure for years and years.

- Patient quote 2 days after SmartLipo/VASER on her outer thighs

I loved that my varicose vein treatment was new cutting edge technology - no pain....
permanent results! I think the whole staff is great! Dr. Kwak was extremely informative about the procedure and answered all my questions about my vein and the procedure itself. I felt so comfortable and had no pain during or after the procedure. I was so impressed with the results, I took in my own set of before and after pictures to show how much of a difference I could see!
I could feel a major difference in my leg almost immediately, and dramatic results in the appearance within two weeks of the procedure. Before Dr. Kwak, my vein hurt every day no matter what I was doing, working out, sitting, standing, walking, nothing helped. Now I am pain free. Thanks to Dr. Kwak and the staff. I definitely recommend the LUMEN Laser Center.

I've received Botox treatments from other doctors, yet the Botox that I received from Dr. Kwak is the best one I've ever had -- it's very natural.

My Juvederm treatment in my nasolabial folds was exactly what I wanted, and I didn't have any pain at all.

- Anonymous, Philadelphia, PA, October 2007

My legs were covered with veins, small clusters of red blue and purple veins that appeared on my thighs and calves. That bothered me so much that I decided that I will never wear shorts, skirts or dresses again. I avoided anything that would expose my legs. I was frequently teased by my friends and family that I was wearing pants all the time and the only time they saw me with a dress was at my wedding!

I was ashamed of my legs, although I was going to the gym, working out regularly and maintaining a healthy weight, but my legs looked so old. Finally I decided to do something about it. So I had a consultation with Dr. Kwak. I found Dr. Kwak to be both knowledgeable and skillful in the course of my treatment. With Dr. Kwak's procedures, my legs absolutely cleared. He has 'before' and 'after' pictures. Now, I don't have any complex about my legs.  I feel and look much better. I see the improvement every day. Now I can wear any kind of clothing I want.

I highly recommend Dr. Kwak and his staff. Sclerotherapy allows me to show off my legs as I once did before.
 
- Mary M., April 2008

Just wanted to send you all a note of thanks for making me look and feel so good. I am very happy with the results after three Fraxel treatments. I’ve noticed my skin is tighter, pores smaller, wrinkles lessened, and overall skin tone greatly improved. Dr. Kwak and his staff couldn’t have been more accommodating. I would recommend the LUMEN Laser Center to anyone who wants to improve their overall appearance and be pampered by a wonderful staff.

Thank you,
- Marianne Church

My story began five years ago when a vein in my leg ulcerated and became extremely painful. For an entire year I was treated thru a wound center with many different methods -- none of which were successful. Finally with a correct diagnosis, I began to research different treatments that were available to me. I attempted a hyperbaric treatment with an oxygen tank in my living room -- this closed the wound temporarily, but when the treatments were finished, I was left again with a very painful open wound. The next step was to have several veins removed from my leg thru surgery. Again, the pain was only temporarily relieved. It was six months after surgery when again I had an open wound on my leg and I set out to research other solutions, and found the LUMEN Laser Center.

My first appointment with Dr. Kwak was extremely informative; he immediately identified the problem and explained a method of treatment. Within one month of my first visit with Dr. Kwak, I had an outpatient procedure that took away my pain within 24 hours. One week after surgery I took my family to Disney World and walked pain free for the entire two weeks. Today, four months after surgery, I feel great; have had no pain and no wounds!! Dr. Kwak still follows up with me once a month and I feel very confident that I will continue to be pain free, thanks to Dr. Kwak and the LUMEN Laser Center.

"Thanks to Dr. Kwak, I am no longer having leg pain, nor am I ashamed of my legs.  It looks terrific – the large protruding veins are gone." 

- Elizabeth D., New Jersey

"I was having trouble with my right leg, I’m very active, play a lot of tennis, and I’m a runner. I had a really bad vein that was very painful, was throbbing after most activity. I finally met with a friend of mine who’s a nurse who works at Penn, and she suggested Dr. Kwak and said that he was one of the best physicians in the area to help with the vein that I had, so I met with him and felt very comfortable after I met him, he explained the whole procedure, how long it would take, how long I would have to be off my feet and I decided to schedule the procedure with him.

After the procedure it took a couple of weeks, I think it was two weeks before I could resume my activity, but as I said I was a very active person so it was just a couple of weeks and once I went back for my checkup he gave me the approval to start again and I was immediately on the tennis court and running right after that. There was no discomfort at all. I had to wear a special stocking for a week or so but there was no bruising, no pain, really, you wouldn’t have known I had anything done.

Absolutely I would recommend Dr. Kwak and the procedure to anyone having any trouble with their legs, it was perfect for me after.”

I have had a truly awesome experience at the LUMEN Laser Center over the past five months. I originally discovered the center while searching the Internet. I liked Dr. Kwak from my very first appointment. He explained the Fraxel technology in great detail and answered my numerous questions honestly and completely. He spent a lot of time with me and patiently addressed my concerns. He presented a variety of options and outlined the realistic expectations associated with each choice. Dr. Kwak made me feel extremely valued not only as a potential patient, but as an individual person. He demonstrates the old school medical approach that patient care and satisfaction take precedence above all else, despite his modern facility and cutting edge techniques. I have complete confidence in Dr. Kwak’s expertise and dedication.

In just two treatments, my skin truly looks much improved. The Fraxel treatment has definitely made a difference! My skin in the week after each treatment appeared exactly as Dr. Kwak had explained in my initial consultation.

The LUMEN Laser Center also has the most fantastic staff! Gen made me feel right at home from the beginning. Her friendly personality and professional approach have truly added a special touch to each of my appointments. She always takes the time to talk and to explain each step of the procedure. Gen has answered my many questions with knowledge and patience. She is very committed to the physical and emotional well being of her patients.

In addition, the center represents a state of the art facility with its up-to-date technology and beautiful décor. The facility is extremely clean and very well maintained. I was impressed from the moment I walked in the front door. I feel very blessed to have found such a special place! I believe that skin care is the first and foremost concern in the body’s aging process. I am very happy to have a doctor and his staff who care about me as a person and who will assist me with both skin and vein health in the years ahead. I strongly recommend Dr. Kwak and his staff to anyone looking for improvement in these areas. You will be very pleased with this decision!

"I had severe varicose veins and almost waited until it was too late. I took a shower one night, rubbed my leg, and all of a sudden one of the vessels close to the surface, the skin rubbed off. It was spurting blood across the room. After my vein treatment with Dr. Kwak, I'm pain free and my legs look decent, feel good, and look normal. I'm happy with that."
