This group multi-tasks which can result in a sloppy mistakes and poor judgement. I have two permanent facial scars from two separate appointments.
The first scar occurred when I was there for a facial that involved several stages over several minutes - the aesthetician was in and out of my room a number of times returning to other clients. When my facial was finished, paid for (not cheap) and I returned home, I checked my reflection in the mirror. There was a small blob of some type of gel on my cheek that I hadn't felt or noticed while driving home. After wiping this gel off I saw there was mark, then it bled. Eventually, it swelled and formed a blister, scabbed over. Thinking back, I suspect the aesthetician was doing a chemical peel on another client in between the stages of my facial, returned to my room with some potent gel on her sleeve or glove that came in contact with my freshly treated skin. The small blob of gel remained on my face for possibly 30 minutes before I noticed it since the facial I had produced stimulating sensation.
My dermatologist said the scar appears to be a chemical burn because the skin texture is hard and white. Thank god it isn't any larger than it is.
The second scar on my face is the size of a dime which that is from a laser being too intense in one area. My dermatologist said this scar is definately left from the laser is exactly the same size as the head of the laser attachment. This scar is pink, like a birthmark.
When I discussed these issues with the owner of Aestheiq she said, "Well, that's what make up is for" and gave me a wink. read more
