AVOID PERSISTENT ACNE. Boost Immunity & FIND YOUR NATURAL SOLUTION
OUR ACNE APPROACH
We take a holistic approach to acne care. We work to identify the root causes of acne in the individual person. Health history, lab tests that assess vitamin/mineral status and the function of the three body systems: hormones, digestion and detoxification are used to develop wellness plans that are individualize to each person. Natural skin care may be used in conjunction to provide more immediate relief.
In this powerful guide, here’s what you’ll learn:
The complexity of acne as not just a skin condition but an internal imbalance and the most common root causes.
How to build an acne-fighting skincare arsenal to zap breakouts overnight and do damage control when necessary.
How to take your regimen to the next level if you’ve seen improvement with skincare but you still have remaining stubborn breakouts.
How to identify not only which supplements are good for acne but which supplements are right for YOU.
How to step outside of the one-size-fits-all approach & pinpoint the root causes behind YOUR acne
How do tele-health consultations work?
Well Ahead Chicago works with clients primarily via phone and videoconference because the health programs we design are based on the results of lab tests that can easily be done in your home and offsite blood draw sites. The types of tests that are used are blood, stool, saliva, or urine samples. Dr. Peter bases her health programs on lab tests that assess vitamin/mineral status AND the function of the three body systems: hormones, digestion and detoxification.
Meet Dr. Shayna Peter
Here’s something many Chicago residents may not know about me. While I was completing my MD training and pursuing dermatology as a career, I began to struggle with acne for the first time in my life. After trying many different skin care products, antibiotics, topical medications, and aesthetic treatments, I had the experience of conventional dermatology failing me as a patient. Most of them irritated my skin, made my skin very dry and did not provide any lasting relief. Underneath it all, I knew there had to be a deeper root cause that was being ignored. My experiences are what lead me to functional medicine and continue to fuel my passion and commitment to helping people with complex skin conditions and autoimmune disorders.
