Kiki assesses pigmentation type, Fitzpatrick classification, and lifestyle triggers. For Little Italy clients, this includes UV patterns from waterfront dining, heat exposure, and stress factors. This determines the safe protocol for your skin.
Calibrated Treatment
Chemical peels matched to your skin type (lactic 30-50%, mandelic 40%, TCA 10-15%), microneedling at depths preventing inflammation (0.5-1.5mm), and tyrosinase inhibitors (kojic acid, tranexamic acid, alpha arbutin). Spaced 4-6 weeks apart for full recovery.
