Skin Science Aesthetics:
A different Approach

Sarah founded Skin Science Aesthetics with the goal of bringing the latest non-surgical cosmetic treatments and techniques to the Tallahassee Area. The aesthetics industry is progressing and we are committed to ensuring that Tallahassee does not fall behind.

Our aspiration is to change the way people think about cosmetic treatments. The aesthetics industry continues to evolve with less invasive options that yield natural, beautiful results. There is no shame in wanting to look and feel good about yourself. and we want to provide safe, effective options to help people feel self-confident and happy with their appearance.

We created an environment where we can take the time to understand your cosmetic goals, fully assess your unique facial bone structure and musculature, and create a plan to help you discover a more refreshed, youthful version of yourself.  We want to create an atmosphere where people come to feel comfortable, confident and beautiful.
