KELSEY'S ACNE TESTIMONIAL...

HERE"S WHAT KELSEY HAD TO SAY ABOUT HER EXPERIENCE AT 
916SKIN - ACNE SKINCARE CLINIC IN CHICO, CA: 

"I have been battling acne for about twelve years now. My first memories of junior high and high school include shying away from making new friends due to being self-conscious about my pimply skin. Starting in sixth grade, classmates would ask me “What’s that on your face?” “Why do you have so many pimples?” because it was such a new thing for kids that age. Once my pimples progressed to full blown acne my freshman year in high school, my father finally agreed to bring me to a dermatologist. I had already tried Proactiv, Neutrogena, Clinique, countless over-the-counter “solutions”. Nothing worked. I also knew I would never risk taking Acutane. I was put on oral birth control pills, given erythromycin as a topical agent, tried doxycycline and a few other oral antibiotics. None of it helped. There were days where I felt so awful and embarrassed about the condition of my skin that I’d refuse to go to school. I felt helpless. I found an acne clinic in the east bay area where I grew up and was able to get clear through a multitude of treatments. Once I stopped going, the at home regimen wasn’t successful at keeping me clear. I moved to Chico for college, remained semi-clear with the products from that location. By the age of 22, I was right back where I started. Deep cysts covered my cheeks and neck and around my mouth. My lymph nodes were swollen because my face was technically infected from all the acne. It was the most difficult thing to go through again and again. I could feel and see peoples’ eyes on my pimples during conversation. Here I was – a 22 year old college woman afraid to talk to new people because of my skin. I would avoid certain lighting that I knew my skin would look worse in, or position myself so as to place people on the not-so-bad side on my face at the moment, depending on where majority of my pimples were. 

I was fed up, again.

I found Tatja on Google, and saw her website and jumped right on it. A short 6 months later and I was clear!!

I never worry about not having makeup on anymore. I feel so comfortable in my own skin now. I never thought my skin would be not only free of pimples, but also healthy and glowing. Finally! No more limiting my social interactions, no more painful, irritated, inflamed, skin. I feel forever grateful for Tatja and her talents as an acne specialist. I am able to be 100% myself 100% of the time. Trust what Tatja tells you about how to treat your skin. I haven’t been this satisfied in years. She is kind, gentle, understanding and won’t give up on you. What a wonderful woman, even outside of her profession. Come to 916 Skin and love yourself and your skin as much as you deserve to."

WHY IS MY SKIN BALLING UP...

CHICO SKIN CARE PRODUCTS FOR ACNE

Yes, it's frustrating when you apply make up and your acne care products start balling up on on your face. Giving each product time to penetrate between layers will help prevent pilling.

After I wash and tone my skin in the morning, I apply my exfoliating serum and then go make my bed. Next, I apply my vitamin C serum and eat breakfast. After that, I apply my peptides and get dressed. Next, moisturizer... make tea. Apply makeup, give my dog a scratch and I'm off to work - with no pilling!

ACNE & PRODUCT-INDUCED DRYNESS...

ADULT ACNE TREATMENT OROVILLE, CA

If you suffer from acne and dry skin, the question is whether your skin is genetically dry, age-dry or product-induced dry. If you have genetically dry skin, you have smaller tighter pores, are prone to fine lines and have never had to battle oil. In fact, your skin will benefit from oils - the right kind. Oils can penetrate moisturizers, but moisturizers do not effectively penetrate oils so applying a small amount of sunflower or olive oil over your moisturizer can help prevent fine lines and keep your skin happy.

Age-dry skin comes with age as even the oiliest skin dries out as we get older. Product-induced dryness comes from using products that are either too strong, have a pH that is not compatible, ingredients that aren't compatible or are simply the wrong products for your skin, all together.

An acne specialist can test products on your skin and customize a skincare system specifically for your skin type so that your skin becomes clear, healthy and happy!

ACNE SPECIALISTS ARE RIGHT HERE IN CHICO READY TO HELP YOU GET CLEAR. MOST CLIENTS EXPERIENCE CLEAR SKIN IN 3 TO 4 MONTHS.

ACNE SERUMS FIRST...

ACNE PRODUCT CONSULTATIONS CHICO, CA      916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC



When in doubt, apply your products thinnest to thickest. This means serums first. Serums have active ingredients that target acne and other skin concerns. We want the actives to sink deep into the skin. If serums are applied over moisturizers or sunscreens, they will sit on top of the skin wasting your money and your efforts.

After cleansing and toning, apply your serums. Serums that are acidic should be applied before other serums. Acidic serums are those such as vitamin C, glycolic, lactic, mandelic, citric or salicylic acid. Moisturizers and sunscreens go on after the serums, in that order.

The other factor to consider when layering acne products is pH. A particular product can be acidic, alkaline or neutral. Applying products that jump from one extreme pH to the other can cause burning, redness, irritation or dryness, as well as ineffective penetration of products. To prevent more breakouts, an acne specialist can test the pH of your products to ensure you are applying them in the correct order and to ensure your acne products are compatible.

COMING TO WASHINGTON STATE...

COMING SOON: ACNE CLINIC IN WASHINGTON STATE

Starting August 8th, I will be booking acne consultations in Chico for the week of August 17th. I look forward to catching up with you all.

I met up with my flight attendant friend in Bothell, Washington yesterdaay and made my way to San Francisco as a non-revenue passenger on an over sold flight. Haha, the odds were in my favor and we made it to SFO with no delays. A quick taxi ride to her crash pad with all my camping gear - ughhh - up at 4:30am to catch a early morning flight, and I'll be home sweet home by tomorrow noon.  So excited to surprise my dog, who is, without a doubt, feeling completely abandoned by now. I'm looking forward to getting back to regular life - good meals, cozy bed and lovely fresh scented skin!

SAVE YOUR FACE & FIND YOUR PLACE...

GET HELP FOR ACNE IN CHICO, CA BY SCHEDULING A CONSULTATION.

As my uncle and I scanned the map of Western Washington for interesting places for me to visit on my road trip, he mumbled, "there's not much on Whidbey Island" - and right then, I knew, that was my next destination.

I'm drawn to life at a slower pace, small towns with an interesting history, a downtown that spans an entire block, woods secluded and leaping with wildlife. On Whidbey Island, there are... bunnies bouncing, deer frolicking, chipmunks flinging, bald eagles scouting and locals - who, when asking how you're doing, actually want to know, how you're doing.

Healing acne has much to do with minimizing stress and fostering joy. When you find a place that speaks to your soul, your dreams become more colorful. You may begin to imagine a life you have never imagined before. I encourage you to find YOUR place (or places), set your imagination free and create joy!
