Bi-weekly follow ups are essential to the clearing process. As a Holistic Acne Specialist it is important to be in contact with my clients. This not only helps to keep the client accountable with their regimen but also helps myself as an Esthetician make sure that the skin is improving in a timely manner.
I like to think of myself as a skin care detective, if I notice that the skin isn’t improving as it should I start to ask a lot of questions. How has your diet been? Are you on or approaching your cycle? Have you been traveling? Have you discontinued the use of dryer sheets and fragrance detergents? Do you have a tendency to touch your face without realizing? Are you wiping down your phone with a disinfecting wipe daily?
These questions are important because it in fact makes both myself and the client mindful of acne triggers. Typically with the help of this Q & A we are able to get down to the bottom of the issue and the skin will then continue to clear.
Follow ups every two weeks help me to determine when to boost your current regimen, I may ask the client to start using their mandelic serum day and night. Or I will raise the percentage of the serum to improve texture and pigmentation. Also incorporating a scrub for those whose skin can tolerate it. The goal is to ease the skin into using these active ingredients and then boost over time to get the desired result.
Follow ups are the most important part to the Virtual Acne Program, they are scheduled every two weeks and done via text message. I usually will check in and have my client send me photos of their skin to track their progress as well as have them give me an update on how their skin is feeling currently and how it is improving. This helps me to determine any adjustments needed such as incorporating a hydrating mask or taking a break from actives if the skin is becoming dry, dehydrated, flakey, or irritated.
Best part? Follow ups are free of charge!
