Ask Dr. Trevor Brooks about the artistic side of his work and he'll definitely mention the operating room.

A room where every person knows their part, every movement has a reason, and years of training come together to do something exactly right.

Surgery is technical, obviously. But there's a craft to it too. Knowing how tissue behaves, how something will heal, what will look natural in a year rather than just next week. It can feel like a well-organized orchestra of people and tools working together to create and enhance something beautiful. ๐Ÿ–ค

"I tried retinol once. It made my skin worse, so I gave up."

We hear this all the time and it's almost never a retinol problem. It's a timing problem!

Retinol makes your skin more sun sensitive, so starting it in summer means fighting UV exposure while your skin is already adjusting. Peeling, redness, irritation, and then people quit right before the good part.

Fall changes that. Less sun to contend with means your skin can get through the adjustment period and on to what retinol is actually known for. Smoother texture, softer lines, more even tone.

If you wrote it off before, this is the season to try again properly.

Medical grade retinol from ZO Skin Health and Alumier MD Canada, available in clinic. ๐Ÿ–ค

This weekend we're thinking about what we're grateful for, and honestly? It's a long list. ๐Ÿ‚

A team that shows up with real care every single day. A community that's supported this place since day one. And every person who walks through our doors and trusts us with their skin, their questions, and sometimes their worries. That's not a small thing, and we don't take it lightly.

Happy Thanksgiving, beauties. Enjoy the long weekend, eat well, and rest up. ๐Ÿ–ค

Your skin goals, from head to toe. ๐Ÿ–ค

So many areas, so many possibilities with Morpheus8.

Microneedling plus radiofrequency, rebuilding collagen from underneath rather than resurfacing the top. That's why it works almost anywhere. โœจ

Amanda and Chelsea are on their way back from Palm Springs and DMK's World of Confidence 2026. We have notebooks full of ideas about new products and protocols to further dive into learning.

Skin science keeps moving, and so do we. Our ongoing education is part of how we take care of you, on both the spa side and the medical side of our practice.

Curious about anything we learned? Ask us at your next visit or send us a message.

Consider this your season premiere. ๐Ÿ‚

Summer sun kept a lot of treatments off the table. Now that it's behind us, the spicy stuff is officially back:

๐Ÿ–ค Laser resurfacing
๐Ÿ–ค Chemical peels
๐Ÿ–ค Morpheus8
๐Ÿ–ค Laser hair removal (all the areas, not just underarms)

Less sun exposure means better healing, better results, and a lot less babysitting your skin afterward.

Treatment season is open, beauties. ๐Ÿ˜‰

This is where Dr. Brooks spends a good portion of his week.

Reconstructive cases. Skin cancer excisions. Surgical work that requires knowledge of anatomy at a very detailed level.

It's also exactly why a consultation with him looks different.

When he assesses you, he's not just looking at the surface. He's combining understanding of structure, proportion, and how tissue actually behaves.

Sometimes a treatment is recommended. Sometimes a surgery. Sometimes it means telling you to wait. Sometimes it means saying no.

Book a consultation and find out what's truly right for you. ๐Ÿ–ค

A patient came in with a lesion unlike any of their others. It was raised, pigmented, and growing.

It was rightfully referred as urgent, with clinical concern for melanoma.

Then dermoscopy revealed classic findings of a basal cell cancer. Still a cancer, still important, but not nearly as concerning as melanoma.

It was excised the same day as the assessment, with appropriate margins guided by the more detailed dermoscopy findings.

At eight days post op, sutures came out. The patient was relieved to learn it was confirmed as a basal cell cancer, excised with clear margins, and no further treatment was needed. ๐Ÿ–ค

Your September calendar in one word: full. ๐Ÿ‚

Between drop offs, practices, and everything that came roaring back this month, weekday appointments stop being realistic pretty fast.

That's exactly why we're open Saturdays. 10am to 3pm, full treatment menu, same expert care.

A few Saturday slots are still available, beauties. ๐Ÿ–ค

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, beauties, but your skin is more dehydrated right now than it's been all year. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Three months of sun, wind, air conditioning, and chlorine will do that, and it usually catches up right around now.

The good news? The treatments that fix it are exactly the ones you can do today. No downtime, no sun restrictions, no waiting for fall.

๐Ÿ–ค HydraFacial to rehydrate properly
๐Ÿ–ค Dermaplaning for smoother texture
๐Ÿ–ค Forma for gentle tightening

Consider this your post summer rehydration plan!
