Teen Skin Care

This is a very important time in your development, and is reflected in the skin.  During puberty, the sebaceous (oil) glands produce much more oil than at any other time in your life, and as a result can cause acne. This can be a source of discomfort, as well as embarrassment. Because everyone’s skin has different conditions that change throughout their lifetime, it is important to start early with good skin care habits. Learning how to take care of your skin can drastically minimize the duration of breakouts and possible scarring. At Illuminations Medical Spa, we consider each of our teen clients to be unique. Every treatment, as well as your home care regime, is tailored to your individual concerns and current skin condition. The following are services and products that may be recommended for teens:
