MARINA VOLOD IS A GENIUS, plain and simple. She saved my skin from total ruin. Ms. Volod's…read moreskill-set is truly unique. When you combine experience, intelligence, natural talent, resourcefulness, cutting edge research, dedication and true caring--you get a miracle-worker like Marina.
Though it pains a vain, beauty-loving girl to publically proclaim it, I've been struggling with breakouts for my entire adult life. I've been dry-iced and dried out with topicals. Stuffed with antibiotics and spironolactone. Blue-lit, poked and prodded. All to no avail. Oh, some months were better than others. But in the end, I had to admit, it was getting worse, not better. Dermatologists told me they were "doing everything they could," and claimed the only remaining option was the infamous, side-effect inducing Acutane. I was at my wit's end. Make-up, my only ally. And even that mask was beginning to crack ...
I decided to try an aesthetician. Someone world-class. I needed to pull out "the big guns." Through a series of review searches and pure glorious good fortune, I found Marina Volod & Dermaesthetica. I knew I liked Ms. Volod when the first thing she said to me, after initial introductions, was: "Tell me the story of your skin." She even sat down, ready for a long one. This was extremely touching for someone who had been shuffled through appointments year after year with clinical apathy.
Marina has a vast arsenal of magic tricks up her sleeve--a sorceress of skin!
I saw improvement instantly. As soon as I began following Marina's new prescribed regimen (which was quite simple, but precise) and using her products, I noticed I wasn't seeing any new breakouts. The redness was fading. Marina performed a moderate chemical peel to start working on the scar damage. The result was spectacular. Not only did my scars diminish noticeably, but my entire complexion has taken on a glowing, healthy vitality I haven't seen in years. Also for the first time in years, I'm leaving the house without make-up. Getting compliments on my skin!
I am looking forward to a second peel; the first one was already so successful. We are still in the midst of my "recovery plan" scar-wise, but for the first time in years I have high hopes! Thanks to my new aesthetic ally, my complexion has been clear and healthy-looking for months, which alone is enough to make a girl write a gushing review.
