benefits of an aesthetician consultation

Aesthetician Consultations at Revelus Dermatology offer a focused evaluation of your skin and foundational aesthetic concerns. Peije will review your goals, assess your skin using VISIA imaging, and recommend treatments and skincare strategies tailored to your needs. These visits provide clear guidance on facials, light-based therapies, resurfacing options, extractions, and at-home routines that support long-term skin health. And because your consultation takes place inside a board-certified dermatology practice, medical evaluation and prescription options are one step away if your skin needs more than cosmetic care.

  • Best for patients exploring non-invasive treatments such as facials, light-based devices, extractions, and texture or discoloration therapies.
  • Supports skincare planning and may include recommendations for follow-up or maintenance visits.
  • A $100 consultation fee is collected at booking and applies toward your treatment when the service is scheduled and paid for the same day as your consultation.

what to expect*

scheduling

Booking your Aesthetician Consultation is simple. You can schedule online or call our office at a time that works best for you. Once your appointment is confirmed, our team will share any forms or instructions you need ahead of time.

To get the most from your visit, arrive with clean skin if possible, without makeup, tinted sunscreen, or heavy skincare products, so your VISIA imaging is as accurate as it can be. If you are coming from work or another appointment with makeup on, that is fine, we can have you remove it before imaging. Bring a list or photos of the skincare products you currently use, and come ready to talk about your skin concerns, goals, and any previous cosmetic treatments.

during the consultation

Your visit starts with a conversation, not a sales pitch. Peije will ask about your goals, skin history, and any concerns, then evaluate your skin in person. Every consultation includes a complimentary VISIA Skin Analysis, which captures sun damage, texture, pores, pigmentation, and redness below the surface. She will also review the products you currently use at home so recommendations build on what is already working.

customized treatment plan

Based on your evaluation and VISIA results, Peije builds a plan matched to your goals, budget, and timeline. That may include in-office treatments like facials, peels, or light-based therapies, along with at-home skincare guidance. If your home routine needs updating, products are phased in and out gradually rather than replaced all at once, and you will always get realistic expectations about results and timing.

next steps

If your recommended treatment is safe for same-day care, you can often begin at the same visit, and your $100 consultation fee applies toward any service scheduled and paid for that day. Otherwise, our team will help you book your first treatment before you leave. You will go home with your personalized plan and care notes for easy reference. If anything during your evaluation calls for medical attention, our dermatology team is in the same office.

An aesthetician consultation at Revelus is $100, and the fee applies toward your treatment when the service is scheduled and paid for the same day as your consultation. Every consultation also includes a complimentary VISIA Skin Analysis. Cosmetic consultations are self-pay and not covered by insurance.

can i start treatment the same day as my consultation?

is an aesthetician consultation worth it?

If you are deciding between facials, peels, lasers, or other cosmetic treatments, a consultation removes the guesswork. You get VISIA imaging of your skin, a plan matched to your goals and budget, and the fee applies toward same-day treatment. Because Revelus is a dermatology practice, Peije can also coordinate with our medical team if your skin needs more than cosmetic care.

what happens during an aesthetician consultation?

Peije will review your goals, evaluate your skin, and perform a VISIA Skin Analysis to identify underlying concerns. You will receive tailored recommendations for treatments and skincare products, with realistic expectations about results and timing.

how should i prepare for my consultation?

Arrive with clean skin if possible, without makeup, tinted sunscreen, or heavy products, so your VISIA imaging is accurate. If you arrive wearing makeup, we can have you remove it before imaging. Bring a list or photos of your current skincare products and be ready to discuss your concerns, goals, and any previous cosmetic treatments.

do i need a consultation before a facial or peel?

Facials can be booked directly online. For chemical peels, laser treatments, and other corrective services, a consultation comes first so Peije can confirm the right treatment for your skin type using your VISIA scan.

what does a visia skin analysis show?

VISIA measures sun damage, texture, pores, pigmentation, redness, and other markers below the surface that help guide a data-driven skincare and treatment plan.

what is the difference between an esthetician and an aesthetician?

They are two spellings of the same profession, and both refer to a licensed skin care professional. In Texas, the state license is issued as an esthetician license. At Revelus, your consultation is with Peije Fincher, a Licensed Aesthetician practicing within a board-certified dermatology practice.

what skin concerns can an aesthetician help with?

Peije addresses texture, dullness, oily skin, congested pores, blackheads, mild discoloration and hyperpigmentation, early signs of aging, dehydration, sensitivity, and product-related issues. Concerns that need medical care are referred to our dermatology team in the same office.

what is the difference between an aesthetician consultation and a dermatology visit?

Aesthetician consultations focus on cosmetic skin health and non-invasive treatments. Dermatology visits evaluate medical conditions and may involve diagnosis or prescription care. Aestheticians cannot prescribe medication, but because Revelus is a dermatology practice, prescription options like tretinoin are available through our medical providers when appropriate.
