If you're not sure where to start, book a Custom Facial as your first appointment. At our first session, we'll get to know each other, I'll take a close look at your skin, and we'll talk through what's been going on. From there, I'll choose the treatment that makes the most sense for your skin at this stage and can give you a meaningful first result. We'll also discuss what an ongoing treatment plan could look like based on your specific concerns and where your skin is right now. I work with everything from early breakouts to post-acne scarring.
You're always welcome to bring your skincare products to your first visit, or simply take photos of them beforehand. I'll walk you through how they're working for your skin specifically: what may be worth cutting out, what you can keep, and how to make the products you already own work better together. The goal isn't to sell you a shelf of new products. It's to build a routine that actually makes sense for your skin.

After a single HydroDermabrasion treatment, pores appear visibly cleaner and blackheads are noticeably reduced, leaving the skin looking smoother and more refined.
After a HydroDermabrasion treatment at our Mount Pleasant studio, pores look visibly cleaner while the skin appears more hydrated, fresh, and luminous.
With regular Red Carpet Facials and occasional European Facials, this client's skin became visibly calmer and more even over nine months, with improvements in the appearance of hyperpigmentation and texture.
Yes. Adult acne is very common, and hormonal changes can contribute to breakouts well beyond the teenage years. If you're in Mount Pleasant and dealing with recurring breakouts, you're welcome to call me at (843) 499-5444 or book a first visit online so we can take a closer look at your skin.
It depends on your skin, the type of acne you're dealing with, and how consistent you are with your at-home routine. Some clients notice visible improvement after their first treatment, while more persistent concerns usually need a longer-term plan. You can also explore the treatments we offer to see what may be appropriate for different skin concerns.
You can book online through our booking platform, choose the treatment you're interested in, and select a time from the live calendar. If you're not sure which treatment to choose, book a Custom Facial as your first visit. You're also welcome to call me directly.
The right treatment depends on whether you're dealing with discoloration, uneven texture, or true acne scarring. Depending on your skin, Hanna may recommend treatments such as BioRePeel, CO2 Carboxy, Red Carpet Facial, HydroDermabrasion, or Microchanneling. At your first visit, we'll determine which approach makes the most sense for your skin.
If acne is severe, painful, cystic, or significantly inflamed, a dermatologist should be involved. An esthetician can still help support the skin with an appropriate routine and professional care, but severe acne may require medical treatment. For milder breakouts, you're welcome to come in together with a parent, bring the skincare products currently being used, and we'll look at what's appropriate for the skin right now.
Over-cleansing and using products that are too harsh for the skin are two of the most common problems I see. Both can compromise the skin barrier and make irritation and breakouts harder to manage.
After your first visit, I'll help you build a simple routine based on your skin, your current products, and what we're trying to improve. The goal is consistency, not adding as many products as possible.
