LUX49 logo

Founded by the people who use the software.

LUX49 has been developing software for the medical sector for ten years, based in Luxembourg, operating since 2016.

Our history

  1. Background

    LUX49 was founded by a plastic surgeon and a fiscal lawyer specialised in investments in medical practices. That combination of practising clinician and investor is the reason our products start with a real clinical problem and end with software that fits into how medicine is actually delivered and financed.

  2. A decade of software

    Over the past ten years we have shipped multiple applications, several of which use AI to do work that would otherwise demand expensive hardware or specialist training: capturing 3D injection sites with an iPhone, augmenting a surgeon's view in the operating room, standardising clinical photography for longitudinal comparison. The aim throughout is to let aesthetic surgeons and other qualified prescribers deliver procedures, from wrinkle treatments to precision surgery, more safely, more cost-effectively, and with better clinical outcomes.

  3. How we work

    We build IP, not consumer products.

    LUX49 develops the intellectual property for clinical apps, typically on commission from clients, or tailors existing software to a client's workflow. We do not sell software to end-users ourselves. Some of our products are positioned for commercialisation through clinical and industry partners.
