REVIEWS

Don’t just take our word for it—hear from the people who’ve transformed their skin (and confidence) through the Acne Bootcamp. These stories are proof that with commitment and the right guidance, clear skin is possible.
I see Dana bc she is a top-tier acne specialist who services Face Reality Products, of which I’ve used for the last 5 years. Dana echoed my TX acne specialist in professionalism and knowledge which is comforting as I’d seen her for 4 years. Ever since using Face Reality, changing diet by removing dairy and gluten, making sure make-up products are acne safe, and changing in-home products such as laundry detergent, my face remains CLEAR. The ambiance of Dana’s office is SO very comforting yet unique, contrary to other acne specialists in the area who stick to the same bland colors and cookie cutter furniture and vibes. Ive learned that I don’t need medical grade services (like the diamond glow) to achieve the results I’m looking for. Although I’m very particular, I TRUST Dana with my very delicate skin. I’ve even scheduled an appointment for my very particular mother’s birthday - to see Dana :)

I came to Dana after being treated by two different practitioners virtually (and disastrously). My skin was a mess, but the worst part was the anxiety, low self-esteem, and lack of self worth. I couldn’t even look at myself in the mirror and was very depressed, but after my first appointment with Dana I felt semi-hopeful for the first time. She took charge, assured me we would get my skin clear, and got to work. It felt so good to put my skin in the hands of someone so confident and capable - she really was the ‘leader’ I needed in that vulnerable time. Less than 6 months in and my skin (and mental health) has done a 180. The best part was Dana’s encouragement throughout the process - if I became stressed or panicky about by skin during the process, she was always available to assure me and knew all the right things to say. I owe so much to Dana and can say, if you are feeling hopeless and dealing with acne, GO SEE HER. It’s one of the best decisions I made.

Dana is amazing! I am going to her for acne treatment and she is only person I’ve ever let touch my face. I’m almost 30 and she has saved me from what feels like puberty all over again. I wouldn’t be nearly as confident or excited about my skin without her. If you have ANY acne issues, contact Dana immediately.

I’ve been seeing Dana for years before she opened her own place. I had awful skin and she did wonders for me before my wedding. After years of prescriptions for my face she cleared it up with facials and good quality skincare products. She is way better than anyone else I’ve seen for facials or waxing - she is knowledgeable and won’t upsell you on products that don’t work. I truly trust her!

If I can give more than more than 5 stars for this review I will gladly do so. Sometimes last year I started breaking out because of a particular birth control I used. My face was looking horrible 😕 nearly was going into depression because my face was congested with cystic acne,hyperpigmentation. I have used several products with no improvement. I decided to check online that faithful day and I found Dana and I never regretted it till date. In the space of 3-4months my face is clear of my worst nightmare which is the acne .Thank you Dana for being a trustworthy person giving me my confidence back .Trust me Dana knows her onions 💯💯💯 and absolutely the best. Her fee is reasonable with the acne boot camp.

FAQ

Is there a minimum age to receive services?

In short, no! But there are a few stipulations, including the maturity of the child (will they be able to uphold a strict at-home skincare routine?) and also the sensitivity level of the skin. I can custom tailor a plan for just about anyone experiencing acne. 

Acne Bootcamp is a totally customized skincare program - no two journeys are alike! Schedule the Acne Bootcamp Assessment or The Acne Bootcamp Assessment + First Treatment. During that session, I'll be able to tell you if you're a good candidate for the program, or if perhaps I can custom tailor an alternative treatment plan for you. 

Once you've scheduled the Acne Bootcamp Assessment, you'll be sent a link to my online intake form. This form is very detailed and will take approximately 15mins to complete. Please be sure to answer all questions completely and honestly to ensure the best and most thorough Assessment. If you have scheduled The Assessment for your child under the age of 18, please forward the link to them to fill out, or you may work on it together. Please do not fill out the form FOR your child, as I want them to be an active and willing participant in this process. 

Unfortunately, the success of Acne Bootcamp program is almost entirely reliant upon adherence to a strict at-home skincare routine. I am available for coaching and motivation if needed and can help them with tactics to get past mental roadblocks. But in the end, it's up to them. Please note that I do reserve the right to refuse treatment to any individual who demonstrates that they are unable or unwilling to follow instructions, or whose level of respect and/or behavior is deemed inappropriate in studio or in the context of in-studio treatments. Please consider this before scheduling their Acne Bootcamp Assessment. 

For the Acne Bootcamp program, I do offer special discounted package pricing which will be discussed during The Assessment. I can also be flexible with half-packages if necessary. You may also pay for each treatment as you go.  

I accept credit and debit cards, Zelle payments, sent to strongesthetics@gmail.com or (708) 314-1699, or Venmo payments, sent to @strongesthetics. If you decide to pay be Zelle or Venmo, the payment must be sent through and receipt verified by me before you leave your appointment.
 

I will accept cash, but do not carry change. Any overages resulting from cash payments will be considered gratuity.

Try to avoid sun exposure, facial waxing or laser treatments, harsh skincare products (including retinoids, chemical exfoliants or any prescription topical acne medications) at least 48 hours before your first session. This is so that I can get a sense of your natural sensitivity level which will help me to determine your custom-crafted skincare routine. 

Think of it like this: dermatologists are medical doctors trained to diagnose and treat skin conditions with prescriptions, medical procedures, and even surgery when needed. They’re incredible for things like skin cancer checks, rashes, or conditions that require medication.

Estheticians (like me!) take a more holistic, hands-on approach. Especially when it comes to acne, I focus on skin health from the outside in—using advanced treatments, customized routines, and lifestyle coaching to support long-term results. Acne as a condition is muti-factorial and chronic - meaning it has multiple causes and cannot be completely cured. I have found in my career that 99.9999% of acne cases are better managed and the results more sustainable when the acne condition is treated with a holistic whole-body system - rather than resorting to one or more prescription drugs which are usually not sustainable without unpleasant side effects. I'm not here to replace your dermatologist— I'm here to complement them. It’s about teamwork, education, and getting to the root of what your skin really needs.
