We often talk about professional treatments, but what happens at home between appointments is just as important.
At Five Star Image Medical Spa, we follow the philosophy of 80% home care, 20% in-clinic treatments. Your treatments can help create change in the skin, but your daily routine helps support and maintain that progress.
So, what makes medical-grade skincare different?
Medical-grade skincare is typically formulated with higher levels of targeted active ingredients and more sophisticated formulations/delivery systems than many basic over-the-counter products. The goal is to address specific concerns such as pigmentation, acne, sensitivity, signs of aging, dehydration and uneven texture not simply cleanse and moisturize.
But here's the important part: stronger doesn't automatically mean better.
The right skincare depends on your skin, your concerns, your tolerance and the treatments you're receiving. Using too many active ingredients or the wrong combination can actually compromise your skin barrier and interfere with your treatment plan.
That's why we don't believe in giving everyone the same 10-step routine.
We believe in personalized skincare, professional guidance and consistency.
Because great skin isn't created in one appointment it's built through what you do consistently at home, too.
