Money Pit

American women spend more than $300 a year on skincare products that don’t work.

More than 80 percent of women misunderstand—and mismanage—their skincare “problems.” Enter Prescribed Solutions, a customized skincare line of physician-strength formulations that are distributed solely through doctors’ offices.

After a brief assessment of your skincare needs, the physician or aesthetician selects “boosters,” natural, botanical additives that address specific skincare concerns. The boosters are mixed into your choice of base products such as face and body cleansers and serums. For instance, adding a hydration booster to a cleanser can help improve dry skin, and an eye serum with a firming booster minimizes expression lines (what your mother called “crow’s feet”). Others lighten brown spots, inhibit free radicals, control acne and rosacea, or manage skin problems associated with menopause. Licensed Aesthetician Jennifer Rosencrance of Bent Tree Family Physicians uses Prescribed Solutions herself because, “It’s a great product; I see results almost immediately.”
 
And here’s a plus: You’re not stuck with a particular product after a problem has been eradicated. As your skin changes, so will your formulations. (This is customized skincare, after all.) Products, which stretch over eight to 12 weeks of use, are reasonably priced, ranging from $25 to $95. Bent Tree Family Physicians, www.benttreemd.com.
