Services
Microneedling
Microneedling at Focus Skin Care Center uses Rejuvapen technology to create micro-channels in the skin. This stimulates collagen production and triggers natural healing processes. The treatment effectively addresses acne scars, wrinkles, sun damage, and stretch marks. Clients receive personalized consultations to determine optimal treatment plans.
LED Therapy
Our LED phototherapy utilizes specific wavelengths to improve skin texture and reduce inflammation. This non-invasive treatment targets acne-causing bacteria, enhances circulation, and promotes collagen production. Sessions provide anti-inflammatory benefits while improving overall skin tone and radiance through cellular stimulation.
Chemical Peels
VI Peel treatments address hyperpigmentation, melasma, and acne scarring through controlled exfoliation. The 20-minute procedure uses medical-grade solutions to remove damaged skin layers. Clients see visible improvements in skin texture and tone after just one session.
Clinical Facials
90-minute clinical facials combine multi-layer exfoliation, facial massage, and customized masks. The treatment includes antioxidant support and personalized skincare education. Each session addresses specific concerns like aging, acne, or dryness through tailored product application.
Waxing Services
Body waxing removes unwanted hair while minimizing regrowth coarseness. Services include facial waxing for eyebrows, lip, and chin areas. The treatment provides longer-lasting results compared to shaving, with options for both men and women seeking smooth skin maintenance.

Report
I have been using Focus Skin Care services for about 5 years now. I get my facials, chemical peels, products and waxing there. I have never felt better about my skin. The peels are excellent. Very well worth it to me. I have never experienced a problem. The owner, Margaret Doherty is very knowledge and pleasant. I would trust my face to no one else. Thanks Margaret!!!
