Skinovative

For those of you I have not yet met, my name is Donita White and I am a local small business owner. I am sole proprietor of Skinovative Face & Body by Donita, and independently contracted to work out of Natural Health Massage & Spa. This Day Spa is located at 20041 Valley Blvd. Tehachapi, CA 93561. I am a licensed esthetician and certified acne specialist, with a 35 year background as a Registered Nurse. I am an expert on skin health and beauty and well qualified to perform aesthetic procedures, administer skin care treatments and recommend home-care products to help each client move toward results they desire. My focus is on changing the skin. I prefer to do treatments that make a difference or as I like to call them, "facials with a purpose". Professional skincare isn't all about vanity, rather it's an investment in the overall health and future appearance of your skin. Healthy skin is beautiful skin!

I have a number of specialty facials that I perform, and no two facials are exactly the same as no two people have the exact same skin type and conditions. Every skin care treatment I perform is customized to the individual's needs, with advanced ingredients and essential oils – uniquely designed to deliver results!

I am also a Certified Acne Specialist. What does this mean? First of all it's very important to understand that acne is a disorder that can't be cured, but it can be managed!

Using non-prescription products from Face Reality, I can clear, or mostly clear, your skin of acne within three to six months – depending on severity. When you follow the home care regimen as recommended by me, and receive acne treatments every two weeks, together we can push your skin to clear without using antibiotics and harsh prescriptions. My goal is to clear as many clients' skin as possible with this highly effective protocol.

I offer gentle, non-toxic and superficial chemical peels that are effective in treating a number of skin concerns, including sun damage and premature aging of the skin – improving texture and tone.

These are blended TCA and enhanced Jessner's peels from Physician's Care Alliance and Face Reality, and are frequently requested by my "gracefully aging" clients. Following treatment your skin will appear younger and be noticeably smoother and radiant as the damaged outer layers of skin cells are removed.

To combat signs of aging, chemical peels should be repeated every three weeks, with each treatment producing a more pronounced result. These peels may be customized with various correcting serums and boosters according to the individual client's needs. For a treatment without down time, you won't find a better result anywhere. I also offer "peel alternatives" for pregnant and lactating women, though these women are encouraged to check with their obstetricians.

Another type of "no downtime" peel, microdermabrasion is perfect for those who can't do chemical peels due to pregnancy or allergies.

With this procedure, the outermost surface of the skin is partially or completely exfoliated by light abrasion, or polishing, to remove sun-damaged skin thereby reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and resulting in firmer, more youthful-looking skin. The microderm I use is integrated with LED and uses technology developed by NASA; red light range stimulates circulation.

The results are additive and accumulative and therefore the benefits of regular sessions become obvious. In most cases there are immediate results seen with the first session. However, by the very nature of the process and with individual differences, it may take several treatments to achieve the desired outcome.

Clients who have abused or neglected their skin for years may require a longer treatment program. Note: Microdermabrasion is not recommended for skin of color.

There are many options to consider when the goal is to improve the way you look and feel about your skin.

While I'm not opposed to the so-called "invasive" procedures (laser resurfacing, dermal fillers, botox, etc), I do firmly believe that proper, purposeful and professional skin care can delay the need for them. Even when that is the treatment of choice, the results will be enhanced when you follow up with regular professional skincare and an appropriate homecare routine.
