I first discovered Hedda my freshman year of high school when my severe cystic acne was at it’s worst. Before I started my regular treatments with her there was never a time when I was able to be calm and not stressed, which only added to the problem of my acne. Hedda’s facials are a relaxing experience which I believe is integral in caring for the kind of cystic acne I had. I looked forward to my appointments because they promised that hour of relaxation; a time in which I felt truly pampered and cared for. Even if it was only an hour every three weeks, it was enough to change me. After my skin began to clear up, I knew I had made the right decision. I had tried so many treatments and medications, I would have done anything to clear up my face. The calm and relaxing setting helped to provide me with a place I knew I could trust to take care of my skin. Instead of «drying» the acne out of me, or «scrubbing» the acne off it was really carefully and properly treated. I could feel that she really cared about helping me and would do whatever was necessary to keep my skin looking as healthy as possible. After my first appointment I knew I had found the right solution to my painful cystic acne. Thanks to my very first treatment with Hedda, I have been a faithful customer for eight years now and in those eight years I have seen a marvelous transformation. My friends and family have all commented on how beautiful and healthy my skin looks. I am so proud of my results that I happily boast the fact that I was able to take my senior portraits without having to airbrush or doctor the photos to remove pimples, blemishes, or scars. People who meet me now never knew I had such terrible acne. I feel like a new person, and until my treatments with Hedda I had been hidden behind the painful acne. Now I feel more confident and comfortable with myself and I know I would not be the person I am today if Hedda had not been there for me. Hedda helped make the way for the real me that had been hidden by acne and low self esteem to shine through. I whole heartedly recommend Hedda’s Skin Therapy for any of your skin care needs. She is an amazing person who won’t just give you a facial, she will change your life.
