Not Medical Advice
Nothing on this website or communicated by our staff should substitute for the advice, diagnosis, or treatment of a qualified physician or dermatologist. Always seek the advice of a licensed healthcare provider before:
- Beginning any new skincare regimen, particularly if you have a diagnosed skin condition
- Using any product or ingredient we discuss, if you have a known health condition or allergy
- Receiving any spa service if you have a medical condition, are pregnant, or are taking prescription medications that may affect your skin

Individual Results Vary
Skin care results are highly individual. Any descriptions of service outcomes, ingredient effectiveness, or product results reflect general possibilities based on published research or typical client experience — they are not guarantees of specific results for any individual. Your skin type, health history, lifestyle, genetics, and home care routine all significantly influence outcomes.
Ingredient and Product Information
Information about skincare ingredients on this website is based on published scientific literature and is provided to educate, not prescribe. The skincare industry is an evolving field — research continues to develop, and what is understood about ingredients changes over time. We encourage you to read multiple sources and consult your dermatologist for a professional evaluation of what is appropriate for your specific skin.
Third-Party Links
This website may contain links to third-party websites for your convenience. We do not control, endorse, or take responsibility for the content, accuracy, or practices of any third-party sites. Links do not constitute endorsement of those sites or any information, products, or services offered on them.
Scope of Practice Statement
Licensed estheticians in South Carolina are authorized to perform cosmetic skin treatments including cleansing, exfoliation, masking, waxing, brow and lash services, and the application of non-prescription topical products. Estheticians are not authorized to diagnose skin diseases, prescribe medications, perform medical procedures, or treat medical conditions. If we observe something during a treatment that we believe warrants medical evaluation, we will recommend you see a licensed healthcare provider — and we will not attempt to treat it ourselves.
Accuracy of Information
We make reasonable efforts to ensure the information on this website is accurate and current. However, we make no representations or warranties, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, or suitability of any information. We reserve the right to update or correct information at any time without notice.
