Skin Care Consultation


To begin your Skin Care Program we start with an evaluation and consultation of your skin and plan the appropriate treatment. Clinical skin care is a medical combination of clinical procedures and personalized products. These in-office treatments will effectively help reduce the depth of surface lines, smooth out rough skin texture, help fade brown spots and assist in drying out acne/blemished skin.

MicroPeel® & MicroPeel® Plus

After the cleansing process, the first step is a five minute, physical or enzymatic exfoliation of the skin. The physical exfoliation consists of dermaplaning the micro-thin, top layer of skin. The enzymatic exfoliation dissolves the dead layer via an enzyme gel. By reducing the top layer of the skin, it also lessens the appearance of fine lines and brown spots over time. A change in skin texture is felt immediately.

The second step, a Alpha-Hydroxy Acid solution is applied. The length of time on the skin varies from several seconds up to 2 minutes. A slight stinging sensation may be felt, but it is only momentary and quite normal. The MicroPeel® will help to reduce acne-related conditions and frees impacted debris from the pores.

In the third step, a skin freezing process called Cryogenic Therapy is performed. Carbon dioxide is applied to the face in light, circular motions. Immediately the coolness causes an anti-inflammatory response. Pores look smaller. Sun damaged cells are cast off. Oil and blackheads are unblocked and the surface of the skin becomes smoother.

The MicroPeel® Plus is a fifteen minute in-office procedure that aggressively out performs other superficial chemical peels by freeing the skin of all dead cells and stimulating the skin renewal process through the application of salicylic acid.

Then, using products selected for each patient's specific conditions, home treatment continues the process of improvement. The products are easy to use and very affordable
