A talk before any facial
The consultation is a conversation and a look at your skin under a lamp. Genoveva asks how your skin feels now and what you use on it, you ask whatever you like, and she writes it all down. On its own, a consultation includes no facial.
What she asks
What you use now, and how often
How your skin feels in the morning and by evening
Anything that stings or turns red
What you'd like from a visit
Before a facial
When she'll suggest a doctor first
A facial can't do everything, and some things belong with a doctor or a dermatologist. If you notice one of these, Genoveva will say so at the consultation and wait until you've been seen.
A spot that has changed
A mole or patch that has changed in size, color or shape, or that bleeds, should be looked at by a doctor before any facial.
A sore that stays open
A sore that hasn't closed in a few weeks is a question for a doctor.
A rash, or skin that is hot, swollen or sore
These need a doctor, not a facial, and Genoveva will move your visit to another day.
A new medicine for your skin
If your doctor has started something new for your skin, bring its name, and she'll ask you to check with your doctor before she begins.
