What You'll Get
Those who say not to judge a book by its cover will never experience the fun of discovering that The Grapes of Wrath contains no heaving bosoms, unicorns, or epic gunfights. Encourage others to look at the literature of you in a new way with today's Groupon: for $60, you'll get a skin analysis and your choice of either an AFA facial peel or a microdermabrasion treatment at the Center For Dermatology & Skin Care of Maryland (a $220 value), located in Crofton.
Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Lisa C. Kates helms a staff dedicated to providing expert skin care in an intimate and relaxed setting. An aesthetician will begin your visit by taking a detailed look at your dermis ($100), determining any possible skin concerns and suggesting a personalized treatment regimen. If you opt for the AFA facial peel ($120), you'll enjoy a formula made from naturally occurring amino acids that produce your skin's natural moisture, as the peel smoothes, softens, and sheens up your skin with less drying and irritation than glycolic acids. Even if you have the perfectly youthful and even-toned skin of an ancient Greek god's personal dermatologist, the AFA peel can encourage cell turnover to enhance your natural glow. Patients who prefer the microdermabrasion treatment ($120) will receive a gentle exfoliation using aluminum oxide crystals, which skate figure eights over skin to remove dead skin cells. Microdermabrasion can diminish the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars, resulting in skin as soft as a rose petal made from feather-stuffed marshmallows. Whichever treatment you select, you'll leave your appointment with skin feeling as firm and tight as a pair of support hose pulled over your face, without the implications of bank robbery.
