Isabelle Gerard Skin Care Studio

I received my professional training in France, where I was awarded (Paris 1983) a Brevet de Technicien Superieur (BTS) en Esthetique-Cosmetique, the highest diploma awarded by the French government in the field. My degree required a two-year study of the physiology and pathologies of the skin, as well as the physics and chemistry applied to the formulation of cosmetics.

Both my technique and training are European, with aromatherapy as a core. Every step of the facial is adjusted to your skin needs - as efficiency requires. In that generous time frame (one hour and a half ) I analyze the condition of your skin, choose a suitable exfoliation method, give you adequate steaming time, proceed with a thorough extraction, follow with a face & shoulder massage, and finish with a nutritive or corrective mask.

You will find only carefully-selected products on my shelves. I keep these under constant review by attending seminars, reading trade publications and staying abreast of the latest skin care advances. I am always eager to investigate new regenerative ingredients and treatments - as long as they truly work.

The salon is open Monday through Saturday, by appointment only, which allows me to give you my undivided attention and accommodate your individual needs. A peaceful environment is as important to good skin care as effective products; therefore, you will rarely reach me directly on the phone, as I turn it off while I am with a client.
