Today is National Esthetician Day, and honestly, we're just getting started.
An esthetician isn't just someone who gives facials. We're skin scientists. We study anatomy, chemistry, and physiology. We learn about ingredient interactions, how different skin conditions develop, and what actually fixes them. We spend hours learning proper extraction technique, understanding acid chemistry, mastering microneedling angles, and studying how different peels work on different skin types.

We stay educated. We take continuing education courses. We test products. We research new technologies. We understand that skincare is layered and complex and that there's no one-size-fits-all solution. We listen to clients, ask questions, and create customized plans instead of pushing the same service on everyone.

And here's what really matters: we care. We care about your skin's health, not just the transaction. We celebrate your wins when your skin finally clears up. We problem-solve when something isn't working. We're invested in your actual results.

If you have an esthetician you trust, tell them today. And if you don't yet, it's time to find one. Professional estheticians are trained experts who combine science, technique, and genuine care to transform your skin. 💗

See those yellow pads under your eyes? That's fat. It's normal, it's natural, and yes, everyone has them. But as we age, the skin above them loses elasticity and collagen, making them more visible. That tired, hollowed, or puffy look isn't always about sleep or bags. It's about how those fat pads sit as your skin changes.⁠
⁠
Here's the science: those fat pads are held in place by ligaments and supported by firm, elastic skin. When your skin loses collagen (we lose about 1% per year after 25), those supporting structures weaken. The fat pads can shift and become more prominent, or the skin can thin out and hollow, creating shadows that read as exhaustion even when you've slept 12 hours.⁠
⁠
The good news? There's a lot you can do topically. The right eye care routine targets the skin barrier, boosts collagen production, and improves elasticity so the skin sits better over those pads. Look for retinol, peptides, and hydrating ingredients that actually pe*****te. Consistency matters more than anything else.⁠
⁠
Professional treatments take it further by stimulating collagen deep in the dermis. Learn more about under-eye treatments that target tired-looking eyes by clicking the link in bio to book your complimentary skin consultation.

If laser hair removal has been sitting on your “eventually” list all summer, the ’ber months might be your reminder to finally look into it. 🍂

For many clients, fall + winter can make treatment planning a little easier because their schedules involve less intentional sun exposure. And because laser hair removal typically requires a series of treatments spaced over time, starting now gives you several months to work through your plan.

That doesn’t mean September automatically makes everyone a candidate. Your recent sun exposure, skin, hair, treatment area + the device being used still matter.

Summer has a way of making certain things a little more noticeable when you look in the mirror: a new brown spot across your cheek, redness that seems to linger, or those tiny red lines around your nose.

IPL uses targeted light energy to address certain pigment and vascular concerns, and may help improve the appearance of sun-induced brown spots, uneven-looking pigmentation, facial redness and small visible veins. What looks like a “spot” to you can have different underlying causes, though, so identifying what we’re actually seeing is an important part of deciding whether IPL is appropriate.

Skin tone, recent sun exposure, the type of pigmentation or redness present and the specific IPL device being used all matter when creating a treatment plan.

When it comes to laser hair removal, wavelength matters.

The wavelength determines how the laser energy interacts with melanin and how deeply it pe*****tes the skin. Our goal is to get that energy down to the hair follicle, where it can heat and damage the follicle enough to significantly reduce its ability to produce hair.

That’s why we use the Candela GentleMax Pro, which gives us access to both Alexandrite 755nm and Nd 1064nm.

For lighter skin tones, we often choose Alexandrite 755nm because it is highly absorbed by melanin. This allows us to target the pigment in the hair follicle very efficiently. Compared with a typical diode wavelength, Alexandrite has a stronger affinity for melanin, which can make it particularly effective for lighter skin with dark, coarse hair.

For darker skin tones, Nd 1064nm is our go-to. Its longer wavelength pe*****tes deeper and is absorbed less by melanin in the surrounding skin, allowing us to target the hair follicle while reducing the risk of unwanted heating of the epidermis.

So no, we don't simply use the same laser on everyone. We choose the wavelength based on your skin tone, hair and treatment area. When it comes to laser hair removal, it's not just about having a laser. It's about using the right wavelength to reach the right target.
