My journey into the medical esthetic profession started out as a personal quest to “ fix or undo ” some of the damage that I had done to my skin in my 20 ' s . It wasn ' t until my early 30 ' s that I really started to notice the damage I had done over a decade , along with the other obvious signs of aging like the fine lines and wrinkles and loss of elasticity in my skin .
