✨Client Skin Goals & Custom Treatment Plan✨

Concerns:
• Mild texture on the chin
• Fine lines around the lips and eyes
• Slight rosacea on the cheeks

Treatment:
Today we customized a HydraFacial® Deluxe with the PHA Sensitive Peel — a gentle option formulated with lactobionic acid instead of the standard glycolic/salicylic blend. This makes it ideal for reactive or rosacea-prone skin, helping to smooth texture, refine pores, and brighten the complexion without irritation.

We boosted results with the HydraFillic™ with Pep9 Booster — a deeply hydrating, peptide-powered treatment that helps plump fine lines, improve firmness, and support collagen and elastin renewal. It also enhances barrier function and restores a healthy, luminous glow for beautifully balanced skin.

To finish, we added a Lip Perk™ Add-On, designed to gently exfoliate, hydrate, and smooth. This treatment instantly softens dry lips, enhances natural color, and locks in moisture for a fuller, more refreshed look. 💋

Every HydraFacial® can be personalized for your unique skin needs — even the most sensitive types can safely achieve a radiant, healthy glow! ✨

Consultations are complimentary. Book with me Monday/Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday from 9 to 5.

Detox, De-Stress, Glow 💖

Lymphatic drainage isn’t just a spa trend or a “detox” gimmick—researchers are exploring it as a real therapeutic tool.

Here’s what it does for your body and skin:

💆 Nervous System Reset
Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, helping calm stress responses. This can support recovery, reduce inflammation, and boost overall resilience.

🛡️ Immune Support
Improved lymph flow helps your body clear waste, toxins, and immune cells. MLD is being studied for its role in reducing inflammation and supporting immune health.

🌸 Menopause Support
Low estrogen can lead to fluid retention, puffiness, and inflammation. Lymphatic health is becoming an important part of the conversation for women navigating the menopausal transition.

✨ Facial Benefits
Lymphatic drainage for the face increases circulation, delivers oxygen to the skin, pushes toxins out of lymph nodes, drains excess lymphatic fluid, and sculpts and contours the face—leaving your skin refreshed, lifted, and radiant.

💖 Add lymphatic drainage to any service for just $40, or experience it fully with our Hydrafacial Elite, our signature lymphatic drainage facial designed to detox, sculpt, and rejuvenate.

Next time you book a session, remember—it’s more than a massage. It’s science-backed wellness for your body and skin.

🌿Tea That Tames Hormones + Clears Skin 🌿

Did you know your daily cup of tea could help calm hormonal breakouts? 💆‍♀️

Spearmint herbal tea has been shown in studies to gently lower androgen levels (the hormones that trigger excess oil + acne). It’s also packed with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that help soothe the skin from the inside out.

🫖 Try drinking 2 cups a day — most people notice clearer, calmer skin within a few weeks!

🍵 How Spearmint Tea Helps

1️⃣ Anti-androgenic effects:
• Studies (especially in women with PCOS or elevated androgens) show that spearmint tea can reduce free testosterone while increasing LH (luteinizing hormone) and FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone).
• Lower free testosterone = fewer androgen-related issues like acne, excess hair growth, and oily skin.

2️⃣ Anti-inflammatory + antioxidant properties:
• Spearmint contains rosmarinic acid and other antioxidants that calm skin inflammation, helping reduce acne flare-ups.

3️⃣ Hormone balance support:
• By slightly lowering androgens and supporting hormonal equilibrium, spearmint tea can complement other skincare or wellness treatments.

✨ Balanced hormones = balanced skin.

Ask me how to pair internal care like spearmint tea with the right skincare routine for your needs. 💚

🚭✨ Let’s talk about va**ng + your skin!

You might think va**ng is “better” than smoking, but your skin knows the truth. 😬
Here’s what those puffs are really doing:

💨 Dehydration: The chemicals in v**e juice pull moisture from your skin, leaving it dull, dry, and more prone to fine lines.

💨 Inflammation: Ni****ne reduces blood flow, which means less oxygen and nutrients reach your skin—hello, uneven tone and slower healing.

💨 Breakouts + congestion: The toxins can trigger inflammation and excess oil production, especially around your mouth and chin area.

💨 Premature aging: Collagen and elastin take a hit, leading to sagging and wrinkles over time.

Your skin reflects what’s happening inside. ❤️ Quitting (or cutting back) doesn’t just benefit your lungs—it gives your skin the chance to glow again.

✨ Education = Prevention = Transformation. ✨

Ever notice tiny, white bumps around your eyes, nose, or cheeks? 🧐

These are called milia—small cysts formed when keratin gets trapped beneath the skin. While common in newborns, adults can get them too, often from sun damage, heavy skincare products, or minor skin trauma.

🧖‍♀️ Professional Help: HydraFacial + Murad Clarifying Booster

HydraFacial is a gentle, multi-step treatment that helps prevent and manage milia:

• Exfoliates & cleanses: Removes dead skin cells and debris without harsh scrubbing.
• Hydrates & nourishes: Infuses antioxidant-rich serums to improve skin texture.
• Prevents recurrence: Keeps pores clear and skin smooth.

🧪Murad Clarifying Booster, used during HydraFacial, enhances results:

• Salicylic Acid: Penetrates pores to dissolve excess keratin and oil.
• Glycolic Acid: Promotes cell turnover for smoother skin.
• Witch Hazel & Tazman Pepper: Tightens pores and reduces inflammation.

💡 Together, HydraFacial + Murad Booster helps safely remove superficial milia, prevent new ones, and improve overall skin health.

🏡 At-Home Care & Prevention

✅ ✅ Do:

• Gently cleanse your face daily with a mild, non-comedogenic cleanser like Image Ormedic Balancing Gel Cleanser.
• Use chemical exfoliants like a salicylic or glycolic acid, 1–2x per week. (Image Skincare has various different options.)
• Apply broad-spectrum sunscreen daily to protect against UV damage. Coola Dew Good Illuminating Serum SPF 30 is generally suitable for milia-prone skin, provided you use it as directed and monitor your skin’s response.
• Moisturize lightly; avoid heavy, pore-clogging oils. I prefer one of Image hydrating serums over traditional thicker moisturizers. Lighter molecul weights pe*****te better to gove deeper, oul free hydration.
• Incorporate Image Skincare Ageless+ Retinol at night to encourage skin cell turnover and prevent keratin buildup that can lead to milia. (Important to remember: discontinue one week prior to your HydraFacial.)

❌ Don’t:

• Squeeze, pick, or attempt to remove milia yourself (risk of scarring & infection).
• Over-exfoliate or use harsh scrubs.

🩺 Other Professional Treatments
• Manual extraction by a dermatologist
• Cryotherapy
• Laser therapy
