BEAUTY GPS- IN THE HOT SEAT with MARY SCHOOK

It's the wild west when it comes to beauty treatments and illegal devices are ending up in the hands of licensed skincare professionals in an industry that is virtually self regulated. Consumers on realself.com

In this fourth edition of BEAUTY GPS - IN THE HOT SEAT WITH MARY SCHOOK

Annette Hanson discusses how these devices ended up in spas and skin clinics.

Spas have never been under more pressure to give the public results at any cost,

but a growing number of devices used in spas are NOT cleared by the FDA and people are getting permanently damaged by estheticians who are practicing outside of their licenses and are embarrassed or afraid to report it.

Incidences at spas can happen at any time, but it's time to educate the consumer on services being self regulated by the industry before to help prevent skincare casualties.

Annette Hanson, founder of Atelier Esthetique Insititute, was instrumental in writing the curriculum for the New York state esthetics license and is heavily diplomaed Internationally through her studies in France with Carita, Payot and Lancome. She is also a published author, educator, lecturer, and founder of two groundbreaking skincare lines.

Annette and Mary Schook also talk about about her beauty hacks after over 40 years in the skincare industry and her non-surgical secrets to her youthful neckline and eyes.

Please note that all opinions of Annette Hanson are that of her own and not to be taken as legal advice. You can check with your state’s laws and guidelines at beautygps.com for further information.

Reactions and random accidents are bound to happen, but it’s important

to disclose everything to your chosen skincare provider to reduce any skincare mishaps.

Today, Skincare Industry Icon Annette Hanson is in the HOT SEAT

to talk about spas and skin clinics that advertise high-tech procedures

using illegal medical devices.

Spas have never been under more pressure to give the public results at any cost, and a growing number of devices that are NOT cleared by the FDA are being performed out of the scope of the skincare pro’s license.

The Times reported as far back as 2011 that personal injury from non-physician operators had risen by 78%.

In my own practice consumers with severe or permanent damage are being sent to me on a weekly basis by doctors, dermatologists, and agents since I’m notorious for helping to calm the situation.

Incidences at spas can happen at any time, but permanent damage is not only physically scarring, but emotionally scarring to the consumer.

From what I gather most consumers are afraid or embarrassed to report their permanent damage as a result of these illegal services and equipment.

These services are even on menus and visible in MAJOR department stores so the consumer can only assume they must be legal.

Keep in mind that the skincare industry is having a wild west moment

and the regulators have made it up to the industry to police itself.

Reactions and random accidents are bound to happen, but it’s important

to disclose everything to your chosen skincare provider to reduce any skincare mishaps.

Annette Hanson, founder of Atelier Esthetique Insititute, was instrumental in writing the curriculum for the New York state esthetics license and is heavily diplomaed Internationally through her studies in France with Carita, Payot and Lancome.

She is also a published author, educator, lecturer, and founder of two groundbreaking skincare lines.

I kept this raw version of Annette Hanson’s interview because there’s just too much information that is beneficial to both the consumer and aspiring estheticians.

Annette and I also talk about about her beauty hacks after over 40 years in the skincare industry and her non-surgical secrets to her youthful neckline and eyes.
