Esther's Electrolysis & Skin Care

Owner and founder of Esther's Skin Care and Electrolysis, Esther began her business in 1985 focusing only on hair removal. While helping clients with Hirsutism, she realized the need to treat their skin as well and went back to school to receive her license in Esthetics. Working closely with an M.D. at the beginning of her practice and many years of continuous education has given her the expertise to help her clients with many skin care issues. After 35 years, Esther will be retiring from Electrolysis in May of 2020 but will continue offering her services in skin care.

Our clinical skin care treatments address skin conditions such as acne, hyper-pigmentation, clogged pores, blackheads, dead skin cell build-up, etc. These facials are corrective procedures and not designed to be relaxing and pampering, they do not include facial massage. A clinical facial usually consists of cleansing, followed by a deep pore exfoliation product combined with steam to soften clogged pores and comedones which facilitate their evacuation.This clinical procedure allows the esthetician more time to perform necessary therapeutic steps such as keratin-specific glycolic or enzyme peels and very specific extractions performed with sterile disposable instruments, tonic, high frequency and a calming mask.

Electrolysis is a way of removing individual hairs from the face or body. Today's medical electrolysis devices destroy the growth center of the hair with chemical or heat energy. A very fine probe is inserted into the hair follicle at the surface of the skin. The hair is then removed harmlessly with forceps.

Whether you are looking to maintain your healthy skin or heal dry and cracked hands, the cosmetic and healing benefits of a paraffin treatment are numerous. The opening of pores and removal of dead skin cells will rejuvenate the appearance of your skin and make your hands feel silky and smooth. The paraffin wax acts as an emollient, which helps trap moisture in the skin and conditions the skin on your hands, and your nails and cuticles. Once the paraffin has been rubbed or peeled away, rough hands and dry cuticles are left soft and moisturized.
