Skin Resurfacing
Advanced skin resurfacing using Venus Viva technology stimulates collagen production and repairs damaged skin cells. This non-invasive treatment addresses acne scars, fine lines, and uneven texture while maintaining skin integrity. Clinical results show visible improvement in skin tone and firmness after six weeks of consistent treatment.
Radiofrequency Therapy
Radiofrequency technology delivers controlled heat energy to deeper skin layers, promoting collagen synthesis without surface damage. This treatment effectively reduces wrinkles and improves skin laxity with minimal downtime. Patients experience progressive tightening and rejuvenation over multiple sessions.
Clinical Facials
Customized facials combine medical-grade products with manual techniques to address specific skin concerns. Treatments include deep cleansing, targeted serums, and therapeutic masks that enhance cellular repair. Each session develops healthier skin structure and function through evidence-based cosmeceuticals.
Chemical Peels
Non-invasive chemical peels use enzymatic action to remove dead skin cells and stimulate regeneration. Solutions are tailored to treat hyperpigmentation, acne, and sun damage while maintaining skin barrier function. Treatments improve texture uniformity and enhance product absorption for long-term benefits.
Acne Treatments
Comprehensive acne management combines targeted extractions, anti-inflammatory serums, and homecare regimens. Treatments address both active breakouts and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation using gentle yet effective formulations. Patients receive personalized guidance for maintaining clear skin between sessions.

I just completed my third Venus Viva treatment with Gwendolyn and the results are amazing! The texture of my skin has greatly improved, feeling and looking so much healthier with less visible scarring and redness. All the products and treatments Gwendolyn recommended are exactly what I needed. She is absolutely the best! Very knowledgeable and shows great personal interest. I always leave feeling happy and positive about my skin!

I had the best experience at Skin like Rissa! I am new to the area and Gwendolyn came highly recommended as I was in need for some deep cleansing and skin rejuvenation. She did the Vitality peel on me and I could see results instantly! I love all of the products she recommended for my skin and I'm looking forward to my next appointment! I have been getting facials and seeing an esthetician since my early 20s and she is definitely one of the best out there!

Gwendolyn was AMAZING. I went to her on a whim prior to my wedding and I couldn't have asked for a better experience or a more knowledgeable professional. I was so pleased with the experience, I ended up making an appointment for my mom who had the same great experience. Her products are great and well worth the money as my skin has never looked better. I will now make the transition from makeup wearing to more of a skincare routine and no makeup. She has a long-term client in me. Thanks for giving me and my mom more confidence in our skin! -Grace

Gwendolyn is an amazing aesthetician. She really is very educated and very passionate about the care of your skin. I am always asking her so many questions. She is very knowledgeable & happy to answer & guides me to only what I need. I am probably her most difficult client as my skin is very sensitive. She recommends the skin contour peel which has little to no downtime. I never peel & love my results. I am very comfortable and usually fall asleep during her sessions. Such a treat. My husband always complements my skin after I have seen her. I am ready for venus viva resurfacing to change the
