10 Skincare Truths
1
Is microneedling truly effective for wrinkles and acne scarring?
Recent studies have shown that a 1-2 times a week home treatment program surpasses alternative treatment options for better dermal thickness, safety, and minimal to no downtime. (This is based on using a safe, medical grade, surgical steel roller.)
2
Don’t Pick your pimples.
When you pop a pimple, you release free fatty acids in the area, which results in widespread inflammation. This greatly increases the size of the lesion and its potential for hyperpigmentation. It also lengthens the time it will take to fully resolve. Contact me for tips on what to do instead!
3
Don’t touch the dropper tip!
It’s so important to never touch the tip of a dropper. This only contaminates your product and shortens its life! For products in jars, always use clean fingertips or a product scoop.
4
Sunscreen is important year round and indoors.
Sunscreen protects us from the sun’s harmful rays all year, including the sun reflected off the snow and blue light from our electronics like cellphones and computers. It’s the single most important anti-aging move you can make!
5

6
Is the use of a clay mask important?
Intermittent use of medical grade clay mask is useful in helping to decongest and clean out pores that have been loosened with retinol and salicylic acid, which helps with removal of blackheads, pore size minimization, and oil control.
7
Scrub before cleanser.
It is exceptionally beneficial to dislodge and loosen all dead skin first with a medical grade exfoliating scrub followed with a thorough cleanse. These cleansers also work well as makeup removers!

Under doctors advice only.
