"Dr. Aime and her team are WONDERFUL... down to earth, practical, so kind, and good at what they do."

Frequently Asked Questions
We’ve gathered answers to some of the most common questions our patients ask about this procedure. Whether you’re just starting your research or preparing for surgery, this section is here to help you feel informed and confident every step of the way.
A: We believe in building a strong foundation before adding extras. Most patients benefit from a core regimen that includes:
- A retinoid to support cellular turnover and collagen
- A gentle exfoliant to refine texture
- A high-quality vitamin C antioxidant serum
- A moisturizer suited to your skin type
- A broad-spectrum SPF of at least 30 (for all 365 days per year, rain or shine on any exposed skin)
These products work synergistically to protect, correct, and maintain healthy skin. From there, we can layer in targeted treatments as needed, based on your goals and concerns.
While we don’t currently stock a large in-office inventory, we’re happy to drop-ship recommended products directly to you. This keeps the process convenient while giving you access to medical-grade formulations that are often not available over the counter.
We focus more on ingredients and formulation quality than brand loyalty. Our recommendations are based on what’s scientifically effective, well-tolerated, and appropriate for your unique skin needs — not on vendor contracts. As our skincare program evolves, we may expand our offerings, but the foundation will always be personalized care over product pushing.
Some over-the-counter products can be effective, especially when thoughtfully selected. However, medical-grade products typically contain higher concentrations of active ingredients, and are more likely to deliver noticeable, lasting results. We’ll help you understand where it’s worth investing and where you can keep it simple.
We’ll assess your skin, lifestyle, and goals during your consultation and design a custom regimen tailored to you. Your plan may shift with the seasons, hormone changes, or procedure timing — and we’re here to adjust it with you.
We recommend applying your products from thinnest to thickest consistency to maximize absorption and effectiveness. Here’s a simple order to follow:
- Cleanser – Start with a gentle cleanse, morning and night.
- Toner (if using) – Optional, depending on skin type.
- Serums (like Vitamin C or hyaluronic acid) – These lightweight formulas go on first.
- Retinoids – Only apply at night, after serums but before moisturizer.
- Moisturizer – Locks in hydration and supports skin barrier function.
- Sunscreen (AM only) – Always the last step in your morning routine, even on cloudy days or when indoors near windows.
We’ll guide you on how often to use each product and how to introduce new ingredients gradually to avoid irritation. Small tweaks in your routine can make a big impact on results.
