  • I really wish my clients would stop going in the sun without sunscreen. I can’t emphasize enough just how damaging the sun can be to the skin.
  • I also wish my clients would stop hopping around from one product to another in pursuit of the best deal or cheapest price possible. Most of the less expensive products sold over the counter in the chain drugstores will never achieve any results. The ingredients are not very good and you can easily start developing skin allergies.
    • You should only consider using products that are sold by medical practitioners who know the chemical components of these products.
  • I also advise my clients to be a critical reader and a critical shopper. Do your research online and read many different sources to ensure that the product you are putting on your face will be effective and get good results.
