Your skin is like a suit of armor. It protects you from the natural elements, providing a barrier between the body and external infections and pollution. Without proper care to hydrate and maintain the barrier, skin can show everyday wear and tear, resulting in dull, tired-looking skin.
For anyone seeking a rejuvenated complexion, medical esthetician Emily Doster, RN, with LVPG Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery–1243 Cedar Crest, recommends starting with hydration. “Skin is a very inside-out story,” Doster says. “If you are seeking a rejuvenated complexion, you want to take care of yourself from the inside out by first hydrating from within.”
Passionate about skincare, Doster enjoys helping clients who are overwhelmed by the array of beauty products and available enhancement procedures. “They don't know what to use,” from what they see online or in retail stores. “I like educating about skincare … building a base skin-care routine for people,” she says.
As an esthetic registered nurse and medical esthetician, Doster offers the skincare guidance of a dermatologist-trained physician assistant and team of plastic surgeons with the luxuriousness of spa skin care treatments. Focusing on results-oriented skin treatments, she bridges beauty and skincare beyond the spa experience to educate and build a skincare routine for clients.
“This is not your average skincare treatment,” Doster says. “I provide customized services such as dermaplaning, microdermabrasion, microneedling and chemical peels while also educating clients about skincare and what products are right for them, including updating the routine as skin or seasons change.”
Not only does Doster spend time teaching cosmetic skincare and procedures, her new RN license enables her to offer advanced injectable treatments and dermal fillers to erase lines and plump skin. “Furthering my offerings allows me to better guide my clients with their skincare.” Doster says. “I know their skin and can give guidance on what's appropriate for them.”
In addition to daily skincare, Doster also sees patients with cosmetic needs related to medical conditions, including hair loss, skin grafts for wounds and burns and treatments for hyperpigmentation.
Doster offers a personalized beauty and treatment consultation to show potential patients before-and-after photographs highlighting her work, from skin rejuvenation, microdermabrasion, permanent and semi-permanent makeup to laser skin and hair treatments.
