“Glow” Back to School

Teacher Appreciation Discount Throughout August

GETTING YOUR NEW SCHEDULE, books, supplies, and back to school clothes? Don’t forget your Fall protocol for healthy, glowing, blemish-free skin, so you can “glow” back to school!

The Woman’s Clinic partnered with ZO Skin Health in 2019 and offers free consultations with our aesthetics RN, Claire. She was the first certified ZO Expert in NELA and has extensive knowledge in building protocols. She will sit down with you to design a personalized protocol based on skin type and condition as well as level of compliance, budget, and lifestyle.

During your free consultation, you will have the opportunity to ask all of your questions. Meanwhile, we asked her a few of our own.

Q: I’ve been told that my oily skin will slow down the aging process. Is that true?

No. The oil (sebum) does not hydrate the skin or prevent aging. In fact, excess oil that sits on the surface of the skin will damage the protective skin barrier over time.

Q: Sometimes, I buy products that work at first but then stop working. Why is that?

Your skin goes through cycles, and you have fluctuations in elements such as hormones and exposure to various stressors. You may also build a resistance to certain topicals which must be alternated with other products.

Q: I have trouble remembering what product to use in the morning or evening, and what steps to follow. Can you help me?

Absolutely! Your protocol will be given to you with easy steps for AM/PM routines. Also, your personal skincare professional is always available by phone or patient portal at no additional charge if you have questions.

Q: My skin is sensitive. Will ZO products irritate me?

Most likely your sensitivity is due to a damaged barrier. Antioxidants, antiinflammatories, and DNA repair will correct this issue.

Q: Most acne products I have purchased in the past dry my skin out. Are ZO Skin Health products going to do the same?

ZO Skin Health products are packed with hydrators, calming elements, and vitamins to nourish and protect your skin while ridding it of excess sebum. Remember that oil and water are not the same.

Q: I don’t have time or patience to do a long skin care routine. Is there something for me?

Of course! Protocols are tailored to level of compliance.

Q: I have dark places on my skin where I’ve had acne. Is it permanent?

Post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) can be treated effectively with pigment control products such as hydroquinone and retinol under the guidance of a professional.

Q: My acne is clear now, but I have bothersome scars. Can you help?

Yes. Using a dermal retinol and/or radiofrequency treatments such as Sublative RF to stimulate collagen are very effective in minimizing acne scars.

Q: Why should I purchase ZO instead of something less expensive?

If you get one line of medical grade products with proven efficacy, you will stop the habit of picking up multiple products that don’t work, thus saving money.

Q: I don’t have time to come in for a consultation. May I do it virtually?

Yes! We offer telehealth and phone consultations also. We can have products ready for pickup, or we will direct you to the online store for shipping.
