Treatments and services

At MJR Skincare 101, we are constantly adjusting our services to provide you with the best treatments possible. If you’re new, or just looking to learn more, we’ve outlined details and expectations for the various services and treatments we offer. Remember, new clients must book a new client consult prior to booking our signature treatments.

Dermaplaning

The best exfoliation treatment for your skin. Dermaplaning uses a surgical-grade scalpel to exfoliate your skin, removing dead skin and vellus hair (peach fuzz) in the process. At MJR Skincare 101, we use an oil for a smoother treatment, and it doesn’t hurt. It allows for deeper product penetration, which enhances results, and your hair will not grow back thicker or darker. You can get a dermaplane treatment every 4 to 6 weeks. This treatment is great for all skin types, too. However, if you have super inflamed, active acne, we cannot perform this treatment on you.

If you’re preparing for a dermaplane facial, you cannot have a sunburn or use scrubs or retinol (vitamin A) within 7 days of treatment before or after. You must wear SPF with this treatment.

Microneedling

Stimulating collagen and elastin for more youthful looking skin. Microneedling is great for fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, and reducing the appearance of pores. It’s one of the best anti-aging treatments on the market with around 48 hours of downtime. At MJR Skincare 101, we use the Candela Exceed microneedling device. It’s the first dual-indicated, FDA-cleared medical device for treating both facial wrinkles and facial acne scar reduction. It’s high precision and adjustable needle speed offers consistent penetration into the skin, with 150 needle penetrations per second.

We numb you prior to treatment, so no need to be scared. This treatment is very comfortable and pretty much painless! Instead of using hyaluronic acid, the traditional glide for microneedling, we use FactorFive growth factor serums to boost cell production and help your skin heal faster. It will give you even better results. Your after-care kit also includes FactorFive products.

Microneedling is great for all skin types. However, if you have super inflamed, active acne, we cannot perform this treatment. If you’re preparing for microneedling, you cannot have a sunburn or use scrubs or retinol (vitamin A) for 7 days before or after treatment. You must use SPF and stay out of the sun at least 72 hours after the treatment. This is non-negotiable, as you can severely damage your skin. Your face will be red and feel like a sunburn for 24 to 72 hours after treatment, and you may experience extra dryness. You cannot work out, sweat, or wear makeup for the first 24 hours after treatment. We will go over your after-care regimen and which products you can use at your appointment.

If you are not willing to follow the above expectations, you should not get a microneedling treatment.

Medical Peels

At MJR Skincare 101, we offer the best peels on the market. The peels we offer can reverse years of sun damage with just one treatment. Peels are great for anti-aging, post acne marks, hyperpigmentation, melasma, severe sun damage, uneven skin tone, and texture. Your skin will peel and flake for up to 7 days, so be aware of that prior to booking. One of our peels you must leave on for 12 hours, so you’ll want to stay at home. (Or go out–you do you.)

Our peels require a consult at least 2 to 4 weeks before to ensure you are appropriately treating and prepping your skin for the treatment. Peels are also only done in the cooler months (usually October through April) when the sun isn’t as strong.

In preparing for a peel, you cannot have a sunburn or use scrubs, skincare acids, or retinol (vitamin A) for 14 days before or after. You must follow the pre- and post-care instructions we give you and wear your SPF. You must stay out of the sun for 14 to 28 days after the peel. If you are unable to make this type of commitment, this treatment might not be the best option for you. Not following these expectations can cause severe damage to your skin that might not be reversible.

For the person needing a pick me up that will instantly leave the skin feeling refreshed. Hydrafacial combines deep cleaning, chemical exfoliation, painless extractions, deep hydration and rejuvenation all in one. We have 3 hydrafacial options!

Express

This express treatment includes dermaplane. If you do not wish to have dermaplane then you can choose from a jelly mask or LED. While the Express is a great way to get your glow on, the Deluxe and Platinum options take your skin to the next level.

Deluxe

Platinum

Includes all the benefits of the Express and Deluxe PLUS lymphatic drainage to detoxify underlying tissue, depuff, and contour the skin, scalp massage, your choice of eye or lip perk, and the oxygen dome. This is our most luxurious and results driven facial treatment at MJR Skincare.

Facials

Our facials are great for every face. We are exfoliating, deep cleansing, brightening, and breathing life into your skin. Regular facial treatments every 4 to 6 weeks are not only a great form of self-care, but they also enhance the state of your skin. We customize the different products used in your treatments to ensure your skin gets what it needs that day. Complemented with great home care, regular facials allow you to see results quicker.

We recommend clients with moderate to severe acne go through our acne program before booking any of our other treatments.

Scalp Facials

Scalp facials are very similar to regular facials. The main purpose of this treatment is to remove excess oil, product buildup and dandruff all while hydrating and soothing the scalp. Not only is this treatment super relaxing but it also has great benefits. Scalp facials can help with itching and irritation, balance oil production, promote healthier hair and hair growth

Acne Program

We get it. We know what it feels like to have tried everything and nothing seems to heal your acne long term. At MJR Skincare 101, our acne program has a 90% success rate. Every single client that comes through our doors either entirely clears or significantly reduces their acne by 80% from our program. And with dedication and proper home care, they are able to maintain their results for years to come. Of course, pimples and breakouts still happen. We can’t guarantee you’ll never see those again. We can guarantee that if you follow our program and advice, your breakouts will be significantly reduced and heal faster. We like to clear acne with a holistic approach. We will give you helpful tips from lifestyle choices and diet to supplements and makeup choices and more!

Acne program clients can expect to be in the program for about 4 to 6 months. The program consists of a customized home care regimen and bi-weekly acne treatments for in-person clients and a home care regimen for virtual clients. You do not have to get the monthly treatments to still see results, but you must stay dedicated to the process. Purging can occur within the first 6 to 8 weeks. Purging is essentially your skin clearing itself out so it can heal. It can make you think your products aren’t working, but they are. Don’t worry–we’ve got you.

During your first visit we will do a very thorough consultation about your skin and acne type, perform the first treatment, and get you set up on at-home products. You will leave this first visit with so much knowledge about acne and how to prevent and treat it!
