Skin Care, Facials, & Peels
by Lisa Dunn, Medical Aesthetician
Glycolic Acid Peel
Great for problematic skin, hyper pigmentation, fine lines, a dry/ashy appearance, and providing an even skin tone. Derived from sugar cane, it is available in strengths ranging from 30% - 70%. Due to its small molecular size, Glycolic Acid is believed to be the most effective AHA exfoliant.
Lactic Acid Peel
Derived from sour milk and available in 70% strength, Lactic Acid is easily tolerated, provides a rapid exfoliation that stimulates circulation, and promotes a healthy, smooth skin texture.
Jessner Peel
The Jessner Peel combines resourceful, salicylic acid, lactic acid, and ethanol to provide a very noticeable and effective exfoliation. Jessner Peels are deeper than AHA peels due to the combination of peeling agents. Results are visible after only one treatment. The Jessner Peel process usually requires one full week from application to completion and are great for those who are acne prone, have sun damage, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, or an uneven skin tone.
Up to 6 layers of solution are applied to the skin producing a mild "sunburn". After 2 -3 days, the surface skin will darken and tighten, and eventually begin to visibly exfoliate off. When complete, the soft and healthy underlying skin is the final result.
European Facial
Just what the doctor ordered. Gentle cleaning and hydration for your skin. Relax and enjoy a full hour of skin care. Cleanse, tone, gentle exfoliation, masking, and moisturization. Done monthly, the various massage techniques, luxurious steam, and cool compresses promote your skin to look and feel smooth and radiant.
