About My Services

Skin Care & Facials
         I invite you to step inside and allow me to customize a treatment just for you!  Let me help you combat the signs of aging, manage and treat teen or adult acne, remove unwanted hair, or maybe you just need to de-stress with a nice relaxing European facial.
         I choose products for my retail and professional lines with research and care:  all of the cleansers that I use deep clean the skin gently, but thoroughly. 
         Using an exfoliant is one of the most important steps in any facial regime.  The exfoliant step removes the top dead skin layer which acts as a barrier and causes the skin to feel rough and sometimes dry & flaky, but just as importantly won’t allow any treatment creams or moisturizers to absorb into the skin—rendering it useless.  In my treatment room I have a wide-range of exfoliant strengths depending on your skin type and desired result.   I have available a Chamomile Herbal Enzyme peel that is so gentle it can be used on the most sensitive of skins.  A  mineral-rich clay peel that can be used alone or blended with an anti-oxidant lactic acid peel for a slightly deeper result.  There are treatments for acnaic skin and anti-aging therapies.  And for those wishing a more dramatic result, I have a 50% Lactic Acid peel which is administered in 10 treatments, 10 to 14 days a part.
            Also in my arsenal of treatments for you, is Diamond Tome Microdermabrasion.  The special diamond-tip wands have a polishing affect that in combination with the cleaning action of the vacuum is so gentle, but is effective in softening fine lines, and will treat age spots and sun damaged skin as well.  Your skin will feel softer and smoother even after your first treatment.  A series of 4 to 10 treatments is recommended for best results.
            Another anti-aging treatment that I offer for drier skin-types is the ECHO2 Plus Oxygen System.  The science behind this specialized therapy is to gently clean & exfoliate the skin and then infuse vitamins A, C & E, plus 87 different minerals, enzymes and amino acids with pure oxygen gas into the skin.  The benefits include amazing hydration and targets the deep dermal layer of the skin where new cells form and eventually rise to the surface giving a smoother and dewy appearance.
