I have been a client of Skinfuzion for 16+ years and Yesssssss this review is long in coming!…read more
First, I need to explain my skin damage (as a basis to weigh against Skinfuzion improvements). I was born in 1965 and so those of you in my generation know that we basked in the sun like raisins, never wore sunscreen, and SMOKED! I have soooo much sun damage, to include burning my face to almost 3rd degree level with blisters and hard-skin peeling! And I did this 3 times! I never wore sunscreen much less even moisturizer. When I entered my 40s, freckles and dark spots began to appear on my face and continued to worsen! NO ONE warned us anything back then about the sun!!!
Around 2010, a co-worker referred me to Skinfuzion and I met the glorious Kim Hutchinson...Ahhhh....my Skin Whisperer!!! This lady/owner is lovely inside and out; her glowing beautiful skin is a testament to how good she is! Kim possesses an endless knowledge of skincare. She's impressive! And I know she stays updated with the latest skin technologies, because I ask her MANY questions during the treatments! Moreover, her salon is always stocked with the latest skincare products.
Skinfuzion Treatments Reviews:
IPL/Photofacial - 3 or 4 times per year.......2010 - 2015
* Holy smokes this laser works well! It breaks up, literally, the patches of brown spots around my t-zone and cheek areas. A couple of days after treatment, I would see brown "flakes" sloughing off of my face where the brown spots/patches were. It was a 5-year journey to finally get A Lot of the damage diminished if not removed altogether thanks to Kim. Well worth the journey and worth every penny! (I also stopped exposing my face to the sun, wore the requisite sunscreen, and STOPPED SMOKING!)
IPL/Photofacial - 1 or 2 times per year.......2016 - Present
* Maintenance to address sun damage flare-ups
Microneedling - 2 or 3 times per year.......2013 - 2020
* This is a miracle worker! It helps with skin elasticity and a host of other benefits, but what I believe to be the most beneficial and noticeable outcomes is this: My skin takes on a better texture, it just feels softer, smoother, and tight, like I had a chemical peel. Furthermore, as weeks passed my skin continued to improve and I noticed glowing. Worth the journey! Worth every penny!
Microneedling - 1 or 2 times per year.......2020 - 2026
* Maintenance! As with anything, get to your goal and always maintain, otherwise, you will have failed everything.
Tixel - 2 or 3 times per year.......2026 - Present
* This is a GAME CHANGER! It is Microneedling on acid lol! It does everything Microneedling does, but with more intensity resulting in more noticeable improvements. The game changer for me was that Tixel was able to flatten sebaceous glands on my face!!! Only my dermatologist can do this and she has to use a laser that literally burns them on my face, leaving my red almost raw skin to heal from the burning. Tixel does not do that at all!!! It just flattens them and I was thoroughly IMPRESSED AND SOLD!
* I asked my dermatologist about Tixel and she relayed, in part, "...that [Tixel] laser beats microneedling and just about any peels you do..." My dermatologist asked me how much I was paying per treatment and when I told her $900, she exclaimed it was an excellent price! I had to tell Kim and I did, and now I have finally left her a long, overdue, perhaps over-lengthy 10-STAR REVIEW!!! But, she deserves it all!!!
Thank you for reading and go to see Kim Hutchinson! She is a standout (and I was not paid for leaving this review)!!!
