Remember, if you have acne, your skin is actually more sensitive to the sun and more prone to hyper-pigmentation than most complexions.  Carry your sun screen with you and keep one in the car all year long for touch ups during the day.  Sun screens must be applied every 2 hours for full protection.  Read the newest information on sun damage and protective measures by clicking here!


Don't forget about your water!  Here's the way to see how much you need to drink on an average day with average activity and no health problems:

Take your weight in pounds and convert to ounces (100 # = 100 oz), divide in half (50) and that's how many ounces of water you should be drinking.  Coffee, tea, soft drinks, beer do not count as water, folks!  Nor does juice, which should be consumed in moderation as it adds sugar to your system.  Eat the fruit, drink water with it!

"Not So Clueless Now!  Being 43 and having spent most of my time in the sun (sports, work, recreation, etc) when I could, I was finding brown spots and quick signs of aging happening faster than I could imagine. I am a male and didn't really know anything about taking care of my skin. I went to Expert Skin Care and Joy Marie put me on a program that is amazing! Brown spots are disappearing and she tells me they will all disappear if I stick to the program. She taught me what I need to do to take care of my skin and also was able to check for signs of any skin cancer. I would highly recommend Expert Skin Care to any male (or female for that matter) that is clueless about their skin. See Joy Marie as soon as you can, the sooner you get in, the less work will need to be done."  Dean


Excessive skin redness is often accompanied by sensitivity, flushing, heat and overall tightness. Skin that suffers from Rosacea-like redness is influenced by outside factors called "triggers". These "triggers" determine when redness occurs and/or how severe the symptoms are. To reduce the severity or occurrences of these triggers, fragile skin requires vital nutrients that will help strengthen cell function, reduce inflammation, and avoid irritation.

What is most important to help reduce and control the redness and associated concerns is to provide skin with agents that will help to calm and soothe current symptoms and treat and prevent future occurrences.

                                                 Ultra Sound Rejuvenation      

    The ultimate way to get your skin really clean!  In addition our Ultra Sonic Facial machine procedure will lighten age spots and acne scars.  It's painless and relaxing!   Some complexions are just too sensitive or reactive to use chemical peels, microdermabrasion or extractions so Ultra Sonic is for you if this describes your skin!   No crystals, no scrubbing... sound waves! With a micro low vibration of 20,000 times per seconds(1 MHz) , the ultrasonic exfoliating  stage stimulate the tissues and improves the permeability of cell membranes. Then, after deep cleaning the skin, we change the modulation to 1 million times per second to improve the efficiency of product absorption and activity for the anti-aging, toning or healing aspect of your treatment.  During the treatment, the generation of frictional heat is helpful to accelerate blood circulation, muscle relaxation and decompose the sebum and any toxins stored away in the layers of skin. Equipped with three treatment heads for easy access of targeted area, this exquisite facial treatment results in...
• Firmer skin, reduction in facial lines, wrinkles and crows feet
• Reduces puffiness and discoloration around the eyes
• Stimulates blood and lymph circulation
• Regeneration of skin cells which improves healing, tone and color
• Reduction of  age spots, melasma, sun damage and acne
• Facilitates the absorption of skin care products
• Ultrasonic waves can dissolve local fats, releasing blackheads
• Diminishes  expression and stress lines
