Shannon Hernadez
Medical esthetician | Phlebotomist
I received my license after graduating from Elise Esthetics Institute in Orlando, FL in 2020 and pursued a career in medical esthetics, chasing my love for health science, educating people about their skin and skin care, and providing exceptional treatment results.
I aim to make everyone feel comfortable and confident in their own skin--to look like themselves, but elevated.
My experience includes treatments such as customized medical-grade facials, chemical peels, microneedling, RF microneedling, laser resurfacing, and more.
HydraFacial is a non-invasive skincare treatment designed to cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate the skin. Its primary purpose is to improve skin texture and tone while addressing specific concerns like fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and acne. The treatment uses a unique multi-step process that combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration, and antioxidant protection.
By infusing the skin with nourishing serums tailored to individual needs, HydraFacial aims to enhance skin health and radiance, making it a popular choice for those seeking immediate results with minimal downtime.
HydraFacial Keravive is a specialized treatment designed for the scalp and hair. Its purpose is to promote a healthy scalp environment, which can lead to improved hair growth and overall hair health. The treatment involves a multi-step process that includes cleansing, exfoliation, and hydration, specifically targeting the scalp.
During the procedure, a proprietary blend of growth factors and peptides is infused into the scalp, nourishing hair follicles and enhancing circulation. This helps remove buildup, dead skin cells, and impurities, while also providing essential nutrients to support hair growth.
HydraFacial Keravive is ideal for anyone experiencing hair thinning or looking to boost scalp health, and it can be performed as a standalone treatment or in conjunction with other hair restoration therapies.
VI Peel is a medical-grade chemical peel designed to improve the skin's appearance by addressing various concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, uneven texture, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation. It utilizes a blend of potent ingredients, including trichloroacetic acid (TCA), salicylic acid, retinoic acid, and phenol, to exfoliate the outer layers of the skin effectively.
The VI Peel promotes skin cell turnover, helping to reveal a smoother, more radiant complexion. It is suitable for all skin types and can be customized to meet individual needs.
Typically, the treatment involves minimal downtime, with some peeling occurring a few days after application, leading to improved skin tone and texture over time. VI Peel is popular for its ability to provide noticeable results with relatively low risk and discomfort.
SkinPen microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that stimulates collagen production by creating tiny micro-injuries in the skin using fine needles. The primary purpose of SkinPen is to improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, minimize scars (especially acne scars), and enhance overall skin tone.
The procedure typically requires minimal downtime, with some redness and swelling similar to a mild sunburn for a few days post-treatment. Many patients notice improvement in their skin’s texture and appearance within a few weeks, with optimal results becoming evident over several months as collagen continues to rebuild. SkinPen is suitable for various skin types and can be customized based on individual needs.
Morpheus8 is an advanced microneedling treatment that combines traditional microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy. This innovative approach targets deeper layers of the skin, promoting collagen and elastin production to improve skin texture, tone, and firmness.
Morpheus8 can be used on various areas of the face and body, making it versatile for treating concerns like sagging skin, acne scars, and uneven skin tone. The treatment typically involves minimal downtime, with some redness and swelling, but patients often see significant improvements within a few weeks, with continued enhancements over several months as collagen builds up. Overall, Morpheus8 is popular for its effective results and non-surgical nature.
CoolPeel is a modern, non-invasive laser treatment designed to rejuvenate the skin with minimal downtime. It uses a fractional CO2 laser to deliver precise energy to the skin, stimulating collagen production and promoting skin renewal without the traditional discomfort associated with more aggressive laser treatments.
The CoolPeel procedure effectively addresses various skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, uneven texture, and sun damage. One of its standout features is that it allows for a controlled depth of treatment, enabling personalized sessions tailored to the individual's skin type and concerns.
Patients often experience a more refreshed appearance shortly after the procedure, with minimal redness and swelling. The recovery time is significantly shorter compared to traditional laser resurfacing, making it an appealing option for those seeking effective skin rejuvenation with less downtime.
DEKA laser treatments are advanced, minimally invasive procedures that utilize various laser technologies to address a wide range of skin concerns. Known for their precision and versatility, DEKA lasers can be employed for skin resurfacing, hair removal, tattoo removal, and treatment of vascular lesions.
