Skin Care Specialist? | What to Look For in a Licensed Skin Care Professional

When it comes to our skin, most of us want a skin care professional that is knowledgeable, experienced, and who has a great touch plus the ability to make us feel pampered while really treating our skin. Why? In our opinion, facials should be so much more than just cleansing the skin!

At The Source Skincare, that’s exactly what we provide. Treatments designed to pamper you while actually solving skin care problems. That being said, the person doing the treatment is as important as the treatment itself. When using high end skincare products, especially professional-grade products such as acid peels & microdermabrasion, your skin care professional must have the knowledge and experience to ensure that they don’t do more harm than good to your skin.

Questions to Ask

*What certifications does this person have? (Over and above licensing.)

*Has this person been properly trained in the use of chemicals and acids on skin? If so, by whom? When is the last time they had training?

*How many years of actual experience does this person have doing skincare treatments? Where did the person work? Were they steadily employed, or have they been jumping around from place to place? (If in doubt, you should verify this.)

*When you ask questions regarding products, their uses, how they can help your skin, does this person sound like they know what they are talking about, or do they sound like they are over-promising? Use your common sense, if it doesn't make sense or sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Use Your Eyes

In the end, trusting your skin to someone just because they have a license may be a mistake. Choose your skincare professional wisely!
