Why we recommend a minimum of 3 treatments for best results.

We often get asked: “Why can’t I just do one?” And look, you can if you are looking for a quick refresh or a short term boost for your skin. But if you want real transformation
here’s the science-backed truth 👇

💡 One treatment can refresh, but lasting change takes a series.
Skin renewal isn’t instant. It works in cycles and collagen remodeling (the process that gives your skin firmness, bounce and resilience) takes time.

💡 The fibroblast effect.
Microneedling and other advanced treatments create tiny, controlled injuries that activate fibroblasts, the cells responsible for producing collagen and elastin. Studies show these changes only start to accumulate after a series of treatments, not a one-off session.

💡 Clinical evidence.
In one study, patients who had four microneedling sessions, spaced a month apart, showed significant improvements in wrinkles, laxity and texture, results that were not seen after just one session (JCAD, 2018).
Other reviews confirm: 3–6 treatments are typically needed for measurable improvements in collagen levels and skin integrity.

✨ Think of it this way:
One treatment gives you a glimpse.
A series gives you transformation.

At Appearance Coach, we’ll guide you through a treatment plan designed for real, lasting results, because your skin deserves more than a quick fix.

Pigmentation & Darker Skin: What You Need to Know

If you have a deeper skin tone, you may notice that pigmentation can show up in different ways, like melasma, marks left behind from acne, uneven tone, or sun-induced dark patches. These are common concerns, but they can feel frustrating when they don’t fade on their own.

Because darker skin responds differently to treatment, it’s important to use the right technology and the right approach. That’s where our Helios 785 laser comes in. Designed to treat pigmentation safely while also refining and brightening the skin.

Why our clients trust us:
• Treatments tailored with your skin’s unique needs in mind
• Safe, precise technology that reduces risk
• A focus on achieving results that last, not quick fixes

At Appearance Coach, we believe every skin deserves careful, thoughtful treatment. Our role is to support your skin journey, so you feel confident knowing your complexion is in safe hands.

📅 Start with an Advanced Skin Assessment using our Observ 520X and together, we’ll create a plan that’s right for you.

Why We Treat Pigmentation Low & Slow

When it comes to pigmentation, especially melasma, our golden rule is to go low and slow. Here’s why:

1. Inflammation fuels pigmentation
Melasma is an inflammatory condition at its core. High heat or aggressive settings can irritate the skin, triggering a cascade of inflammatory signals. This inflammation stimulates melanocytes (the pigment-producing cells) to make more melanin, which can worsen the very pigmentation we’re trying to treat.

2. Controlled energy = safer results
Using lower energy levels and spacing treatments allows the skin to gradually break down excess pigment without sparking an inflammatory response. This means less risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) and rebound melasma.

3. Long-term correction over quick fixes
Yes, it may take longer to achieve results, but the goal is clear skin that lasts, not a quick fade that bounces back in six months. We regularly see clients who’ve had dramatic, immediate clearance from other devices, only to have the pigment return, often worse, within 6 months.

4. A combined approach for lasting change
To keep results steady and sustainable, we use a thoughtful mix of laser treatments, targeted chemical peels, and clinical-grade skincare. Each element plays a role: lasers disperse existing pigment, peels accelerate cell turnover, and professional skincare suppresses pigment formation and calms inflammation.

Bottom line:
We understand the appeal of a quick fix, but our priority is treating the cause, protecting your skin, and delivering results that stand the test of time. Patience and precision give you the best chance of clear, even skin for the long run.

I made a safe space for clients but that also includes my team.

We had an unfortunate incident recently where one of my team was subjected to a frankly disgusting, entitled diatribe which was completely uncalled for and left her in tears.

Please be aware that just as I wouldn’t tolerate a staff member being rude to you , I will not tolerate rudeness from a client and you will be fired from my practice.

Appearance Coach is a place of safety, respect and genuine care.

Thank you to the 99.9999999% of our clients that this doesn’t apply to.

To the 0.0000001% who thinks it’s acceptable to talk to anyone the way you did to my receptionist, I suggest you take a long hard look at yourself.

Free Radicals & Your Skin: The Science Behind Premature Aging

Every day, your skin is exposed to free radicals. Unstable molecules produced by UV rays, pollution, stress, and even your own metabolism.
These molecules look for stability by stealing electrons from healthy cells, which sets off a chain reaction that:
• Breaks down collagen and elastin → fine lines, sagging, and loss of firmness.
• Triggers pigmentation → uneven skin tone and stubborn dark spots.
• Accelerates inflammation → dullness, redness, and a tired complexion.

Think of free radicals like tiny thieves that damage your skin’s protective architecture long before you can see it.

How to Fight Back

The best defense is antioxidant-rich skincare that neutralizes free radicals before they cause harm. At Appearance Coach, we pair professional treatments with targeted home care so your results last.

Our Lira Clinical heroes:
• Lira Pro Lite Serum – Brightens and defends with powerful plant stem cells and vitamin C.
• Lira Pro Brite Serum – Combats pigmentation and oxidative stress while calming irritation.
• Lira Mystiq Beauty Oil – A luxe antioxidant blend that nourishes and shields against environmental damage.

These formulas don’t just “cover up” aging, they actively protect your skin at the cellular level.
