Skin Care

A proper skin care regimen can lessen the visible signs of aging and give your face a fresher, younger look. While the daily use of astringents, moisturizers and sunscreens can help to maintain healthy skin, only more intense procedures can repair and rejuvenate aged or sun-damaged skin. 

Dr. Pollard is highly experienced in caring for patients of every ethnic background and offers a wide array of services and treatments that can help your skin look its best.  

AHA Glycolic Treatment Series

Glycolic acid is medically endorsed resurfacing agent that dramatically benefits hyper-pigmented, acne-damaged, or aged and photo-damaged skin.  Treatments can be purchased individually, but results are more rapid and measurable with a series of six or more treatments.

Enzyme Treatments

Enzyme treatments utilize enzymes from papaya and pineapple to soften and exfoliate skin in a very gentle manner.  This allows for easier extraction and it is safe for any skin type. Treatments are usually done prior to glycolic or microdermabrasion to produce a deeper, better result.

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a method of exfoliation/resurfacing that can significantly benefit skin with hyper-pigmentation, rough texture, sun-damage,  and the dreaded effects of aging.  Treatments may be purchased  individually, however, for best results we recommend a series of six or more treatments scheduled every two to three weeks.  Microdermabrasion leaves your skin feeling refreshed, stimulated, and polished. It can be done alone or combined with glycolic (Micropeel),  which allows for a deeper result.

Vitamin-C Treatment

Extreme nourishment for your skin!  Infuse your skin with anti-oxidants to fight off all the environmental factors that constantly invade our skin, including sun, pollution, smoke, exhaust etc.  This treatment is perfect for post-sun care or just to revive your skin to it's former healthy glory.  Leaves skin absolutely glowing!

Beta Peel (Salicylic Acid Peel)

This peel is reserved for thicker, oily, acneic skin.  Salicylic acid helps to kill underlying bacteria which can sometimes be the cause or the main factor in acne.  Thus helping the skin to heal after the peel with reduced breakouts and a smoother appearance.

Back Facial

Facial treatment on your back help to clear up and knock out those unsightly blemishes and congestion from neck, shoulders, or back, using either glycolic or salicylic acid to achieve the best results.  More than one visit is usually recommended.

Teen Facial

This facial is designed with teens in mind to help them through those "awkward" years, helping them understand their skin, the best ways to take care of it, and building confidence.  Can be done either with extractions or without. 

Hair Removal (NuFree Nudesse)

Nufree is a soy-based antimicrobial liquid hair removal system, not a wax, that effectively removes hair from your face, lip, and bikini line. It makes your skin silky to look at and smooth to the touch. 

*Pre-op and Post-op care are also offered depending what type of procedure you are receiving from Dr. Pollard, this is usually designed per patient and discussed in detail between Dr. Pollard and our aesthetician.

*Excellent results may be realized through an individualized skin care treatment plan that may include chemical peels, or glycolic or proteolytic facial treatments.
