Here's my recommendation based on what's actually bothering you:
If you just want an all-purpose glow and some time to relax. Most of my clients start here, and for good reason — a Customized Facial is tailored to whatever your skin needs that day, whether that's hydration, a deep clean, or just a reset. There's no downtime, no guesswork, and it's the treatment I recommend if this is your first visit with me and you're not sure yet what your skin actually needs.
If acne scarring, enlarged pores, or fine lines are what bother you most. This is where I reach for Microneedling. It's a collagen-induction treatment — I use tiny microchannels to stimulate your skin's own repair process, and it genuinely improves texture, scarring, and fine lines over a series of sessions. It does come with a couple of days of mild redness, so I'll walk you through exactly what to expect before we book it.
If your skin feels dry, dehydrated, or just looks dull no matter what you put on it. Hydrodermabrasion is built for this. It clears away the dead, dry outer layer and infuses your skin with a hydrating serum chosen for your specific needs, so you leave with a genuinely plumper, more radiant look — no downtime at all.
If your texture feels rough, you've got fine facial hair, or your makeup just won't sit right. I'd start you with Dermaplaning. It's one of my favorite quick-win treatments — manual exfoliation that removes dead skin and peach fuzz in one session, leaving skin instantly smoother and brighter, and it also helps your skincare products absorb better afterward.
If you're dealing with sun damage, hyperpigmentation, or deeper wrinkles. A Chemical Peel is the right tool here. I offer light, medium, and deep options depending on how much your skin can comfortably handle, and each targets specific concerns like uneven tone, acne, or more stubborn discoloration. If you're new to peels, I'll always start you on the lighter end first.
If you have light scarring, sun damage, or stretch marks, but want something gentler. Microdermabrasion is a mechanical exfoliation compared to the chemical exfoliation of a chemical peel — it gently exfoliates the thicker outer layer of skin without the intensity of a peel, and it's also a wonderful add-on to any facial if you just want a little extra brightening.
If you have a skin tag, milia, cherry angioma, or another spot you'd like gone. Superfrecator treatment is designed specifically for this. It's a precise, non-surgical way to remove these kinds of imperfections, and pricing is based on size, so I'll always take a look and give you an honest quote before we treat anything.
If you already love a treatment and just want to get more out of it. Ask me about adding LightStim LED Therapy to your next visit. It's not a standalone treatment — it's a boost I layer onto facials and other services to calm inflammation and support collagen production, and it's a favorite add-on for clients who are already seeing results and want to accelerate them.
Still not sure? That's completely normal — most people aren't. Send me a message or give me a call, and I'll help you figure out the right starting point based on your skin, not a guess.

Many of my clients aren't 100% sure what they need before their first visit, and that's exactly why I'm here. If you've read through the table above and you're still torn between a couple of options — or you'd just rather have a real conversation before booking anything — reach out and tell me a little about your skin and what's bothering you most. I'll point you toward the right treatment myself, honestly, based on what will actually help.
You're welcome to book the Customized Facial as a safe first step — it's flexible enough to address almost any concern, and we can build your longer-term plan together from there.
