If you’re like most people, you go on Fresha, ClassPass, or Google, type in a treatment you think you need… and then you skim prices to find the “best deal.”
It feels smart.
It feels responsible.
But it’s actually the fastest way to waste money and get disappointing results.
And here’s why:
treatment for yourself.
But here’s the harsh reality:
You are diagnosing yourself and treating yourself based on AN AD or someone else’s Skin!
You need a professional to read your skin and create a customized plan and skincare regimen tailored to you.
For example, microneedling is trending everywhere right now, but that doesn’t mean it is right for everyone. And while it looks simple online, many practitioners perform it poorly. Technique, device quality, serum choice, and proper skin preparation all determine whether the treatment is safe and effective. When any of these are wrong, microneedling can:
Make pigmentation worse
Trigger inflammation
Leave you disappointed with minimal results
Age you or make you look worse
The real problem isn’t you; it’s a system that forces you to play “skincare roulette” instead of finding real, expert guidance.
This is the biggest misconception in skincare:
“Microneedling is microneedling.”
“A facial is a facial.”
“A peel is a peel.”
No.
Not even close.
Some estheticians undergo years of intense training, much like I did, and some people buy a laser or take a microneedling course and call themselves medical estheticians when they’re straight out of school or only took a training course. They won’t understand how to read the skin or how to adapt or how to properly treat the skin to get optimal results as quickly as possible.
Take my signature REVAMP treatment, for example.
It’s an advanced evolution of microneedling, backed by decades of experience. I developed this technique through years of hands-on work with my mom—an advanced nurse—and by learning directly from top doctors and medical professionals.
strong, medical-grade numbing (included in the price vs. places that charge extra for weaker numbing)
a new, sterile disposable needle head every time
a custom cocktail of ingredients chosen specifically for YOUR skin
targeted boosters for your exact concerns
treatment with extra machines to boost your results and speed healing
protocols that change every visit based on how your skin is responding
If you go to another provider, be it a dermatologist, doctor, or medical esthetician, up until recently numbing was extra and microneedling was done dry. Now, places have learned better and know to use at least one serum, but that’s all they do. The bare minimum, with a cheap hyaluronic acid, or worse, a cheap serum that is not meant to be used on wounded skin which can cause reactions and other complications.
When I treat and tailor each visit, clients get fast, visible, lasting results. You’re never just an appointment slot on the calendar. You’re building a relationship with me, and together we are working to treat and heal your skin concerns. This puts you on a positive journey to look and feel your best. I cut out that noise you hear from ig, threads, or TikTok and tell you what is actually best for your skin. The goal is to save money by avoiding marketing hype and look better as you age, instead of worse.
A great esthetician will:
Study your skin
Understand your goals
Select the right treatment plan
Track your progress
Adjust every visit
Protect your skin barrier
Think long-term, not quick fixes
