No problem, Laura!  :)  That will be nice, though, when you're able to offer it digitally!

How long is the typical shipment time?  Does it come with just dvds or is there documentation, too?

@Nicole - when I created the DVD, there was no feasible way to do that big of a download.  Next time I update it, there will definitely be downloadable files. 

@Natalie - thanks so much - I try to keep 'em in line, haha...

Hope you both enjoy the training! 

There's a great group on LinkedIn called Acne Specialists that anyone can join, but there's a LOT of FR Certified esties on there.

Would you suggest using the Mandelic serum on a Q-tip? I wouldn't want to be liable for it dripping too far inside the nose where it is delicate and causing problems. Sheila, any way you can take a photo of this? I'm just curious what it looks like.

Comment by Laura Cooksey on December 11, 2012 at 3:53pm

I would put a little mandelic on it then.  That's antibacterial and antifungal-covers both acne and folliculitis.

HHMM interesting...this is inside...maybe more of an ingrown hair issue.

Comment by Katrina Kulm on December 11, 2012 at 12:38pm

Sheila, I've gotten tiny whiteheads before just around the bottom edge of my nose on the inner part and was able to extract it. I think it just builds up from allergies, I'm always blowing my nose. I think a little BPO on that area would help but if it is further down in the nose I wouldn't use it. I haven't had any clients mention it tho, just noticed on myself before.

@Sheila is your client sure it's acne?  I always thought those "pimples" were from folliculitis, herpes simplex or allergies.

Comment by Laura Cooksey on December 11, 2012 at 11:28am

That's too bad that she resorted to Accutane.  Obviously, she didn't do any research on it before consenting to take it.... No, don't have experience with inside-the-nose acne, sorry.

Comment by Sheila Gordon on December 10, 2012 at 9:22am

I am really bummed to report that my client that I referred to your clinic decided to go on Accutane before even contacting you.  I didn't want to say anything negative so I just said to keep me posted and let me know if there is anything else I can do to persuade her to give you clinic a shot.  She was trying some 6 week p0rogram that involved that glycolic 10% topical (she chose to do this on her own) so I am guessing that didn't go very far.  Really bummed!!

On another note, I have a client that has been breaking out on the inside of her nose!  Have you ever had experience with this and what can I tell her could be the cause and is there anything to to prevent or treat that?
