Cosmetic services to rejuvenate and restore youthfulness to your skin

No two patients are alike, so no two patients should be treated identically either. Dr. Lloyd uses a five-step approach to help revitalize your skin using methods and procedures that are tailored to your unique skin and preferences. First, she thoroughly examines your skin to fully assess its moisture content, pore size, pigmentation, and signs of aging. Then, she takes the time to discuss your skin care goals so she fully understands what you like about your skin, what you don't, and what you are hoping to gain from treatment. She also talks with you about your medical history and examines your skin for any possible signs of skin cancer, as this can affect your treatment plan. Based on the results from this discussion and your evaluation, Dr. Lloyd will then walk through the treatments that are a good fit for your skin and desired results, and works with you to prioritize treatments so you can get started right away with your skin revitalization plan. Finally, as a team, you will develop a long-term treatment plan to help you maintain your beautiful results.
