New at DermaSpa this Year-Personalized Skin Care and Nutritional Coaching!
- Posted on: Jan 10 2013
Now is the time to re-visit and update your skin care regimen to keep your skin healthy and supple during the Winter and prepare for Spring and Summer. If you have a big occasion in May, June, July or August such as a reunion or a wedding, now is the time to begin planning so that each month you are working toward looking and feeling great for the “Big Event”.
Personalized Skin Care Coaching
Our professional and caring staff is here to help you identify your skin health goals, develop a monthly program for you and help coach you to achieve the best results. These coaching sessions begin with a cosmetic consultation with our Patient Care Coordinator to address your particular areas of concern and determine the options available for the enhancement of your skin.
During this appointment, we will perform a complimentary VISIA Skin Analysiswhere a state of the art imaging device produces a comprehensive 3D photo of your skin to assess common skin features such as brown spots, pores, fine lines and UV Damage. Through a process of listening to you, understanding your needs and discussing your skin care goals, our Patient Care Coordinator will then suggest a treatment regimen to be done over the course of a few months to get you to your goal. Whether you are working toward looking your best at an event this year or just improving your skin health, our staff will coach you every step of the way to get the results you want.
Please CONTACT US to get started with your Personalized Skin Care Coaching. We look forward to meeting you!
