Kristen’s favorite go to treatment that benefits everyone’s skin:
“I love the benefits of chemical peels. When fall and spring arrive it’s the perfect time to bring radiance back to tired, dull complexions. Partnering a series of chemical peels with a series of microdermabrasion treatments leaves the skin looking its best all year round!”
