Chemical Peels~ are some of the simplest and most effective treatments for achieving that radiant glowing skin. Not only can you expect smooth and clear skin from these treatments, but chemical peels can also help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Chemical peels work by ‘burning’ the top layer of the skin with an acid solution; this slowly removes dead skin cells and the outer layer of skin to reveal a softer and smoother layer underneath. With some many different variations of chemicals to choose from, such as  glycolic acid, lactic acid, salicylic acid, etc. The options for getting beautiful skin in a few short weeks is endless. If you’re looking for a dramatic ‘lift’ to your appearance without expensive surgery, chemical peels could be just what you’ve been looking for to get that youthful look back!

Here are some great benefits of chemical peels:

• Reduction or removal of blotchy patches.

• Eliminating sun damage and evening skin tone.

• Acne management and scar reduction.

• Improved collagen growth and smoother skin.

• Better skin quality.

Here at Skinetics we offer many different peels~ Here are a few of our most popular………

Most people judge a book by it’s cover and your skin is your cover. So, how do you care for it and how does it take care of you?  Being a sufferer of acne myself, I can only share what I experienced. I found that I either wanted to stay home more and I was never open to meeting new people. I felt safe with the people around me and meeting new people just brought the insecurities on stronger. I feel blessed that during this time, I was well into my career in Aesthetics and had the knowledge on how to really take care of my skin. I also feel it has given me the desire to want to help those who suffer from this disease.  Nearly 17 million people in the United States have acne, making it the most common skin disease.

We would like to introduce you to The Perfect Peel.  This unique formula debuts a new era in skin health and as we simply put it (Perfection: The Future of Skin Rejuvenation).  Never before has a peel offered results at this level to all ranges of skin types.  The Perfect Peel founds itself on a key anti-aging ingredient never before used in a peel: Glutathione.  Glutathione is the ultimate antioxidant known to prevent damage to important cellular components caused by free radicals and peroxides. As we age, our Glutathione levels are depleted due to sun exposure, air pollutants and environmental stress.

We are at 87% humidity today…yuck!

Humidity and your skin…. So the question is, how does humidity affect your skin? The humidity and sweat associated with the hotter temperatures that go along with humidity cause your skin to sweat and become more oily. Oily skin causes clogged pores and acne. Acne can cause permanent damage to your skin including scarring. Here are some tips that can help with this sticky situation:

1) Cleanse face twice daily with either a Lactic Acid or Salicylic Acid based cleanser. A 2% concentration is recommended, as this will remove excess oils from the skin. Try our LactiFoam or PerfectaCleanse to help start your regimen off right!

2) Exfoliate the skin 1-2 x’s per week to remove epidermal cells that accumulate, which will add to the oils in the skin and prevent products from penetrating the skin.

3) Where a lighter weight base for your make-up, such as a powder versus a liquid. Bronzers are a nice option for the summer months and give your skin that sun kissed glow without the damaging effects of the sun.

4) Do not pick at your skin! Picking will not only add to the bacteria levels in the skin, but also lead to scarring.

5) Drink lots of water to help replace what your skin is sweating out.
