Once upon a time (not that long ago, actually), I devoted a lot of time to taking care of my skin. I followed a multi-step morning AND evening skincare regimen. I used only professional quality products. I got facials and chemical peels to improve my complexion and slow the signs of aging.

But then, as my life continued to evolve, self-care began to fall by the wayside. I became a mother, and my morning and evening cosmetic routines changed drastically. My family moved to Hawaii, so the amount of time I spent outside in the sun increased. And most recently, I launched my business as an artist, which means that I am constantly squinting and frowning as I concentrate on painting details.

Don’t get me wrong; I still try to maintain my skin’s health. My basic routine consists of cleansing, moisturizing, and applying a sunscreen daily. I stay hydrated, try to eat healthy (most of the time), and I live an active lifestyle. But in the last three years I have seen dramatic changes in my skin. I’ve been increasingly unhappy with sun damage and fine lines that seem to become more noticeable by the day, and it was apparent that I needed to take preventative measures to keep my skin’s health under control.

Enter Honolulu Medspa! As I am becoming more familiar with the services offered here, I am learning that I don’t have to simply accept the current condition of my skin. I can tailor an entire treatment plan to smooth frown lines, correct sunspots and hyperpigmentation, and brighten my complexion. Every procedure I have undergone, whether it be a facial service, or an injectable treatment, has been administered by a friendly, professional staff member in a relaxing spa-like space. (And as the mother of a toddler, I do not take quiet time for granted!)

I look at each procedure as investment in myself, and I am so pleased with the results. I’m spending less time covering blemishes with makeup, thanks to treatments such as the Hydrafacial, and I feel much more confident in my natural appearance. Noticing the changes in my skin with the services received has given me the motivation to maintain Honolulu Medspa’s work by stepping up my at-home routine once again too. Check out my website.
