Meet Lisa

Lisa grew up worshipping the sun on the beaches of the East and West Coast. Her spare time was always spent outside and she never thought much about protecting her skin against the adverse effects of the sun. To her, the sun gave her a glow that she loved.

In her mid-thirties, Lisa started to notice the toll the sun had taken on her mom’s skin, who was also a sun goddess. At age 65, Lisa’s mom looked much older because of the deep wrinkles the sun caused. She’s a beautiful woman, but she was aging too fast.

This realization encouraged Lisa to start thinking about the health of her own skin and premature aging. She thought now is the time to make an investment in her skin so the consequences wouldn’t be so severe as she got older. Lisa visited Soulstis Med Spa and consulted with Dr. Holmes, who created a treatment plan to repair the damage the sun had already done on Lisa’s skin. With the technology of the ScitonTM Laser, Lisa received a ProFractional, which tightened her sun damaged skin and treated her sun and age spots.  With the intermittent laser procedures for facial rejuvenation, potential precancerous skin cells were actually reversed, not only improving the look of her skin, but the health of it, too.

Lisa feels that in order to be healthy, we must take care of our whole self. And sometimes, when we take care of the outside, we are really taking care of the inside.

If your skin has sun damage, the treatments that Lisa received may help your skin, too. Schedule a free consultation at Soulstis Med Spa to find out. Call 218-824-6666. Watch Lisa's commercial here.

Meet Janet

As a family practice nurse practioner in Aitkin, Janet knows the meaning of good care. It’s what she expects and Janet chooses to be a patient at Soulstis Med Spa because of the “outstanding care” she receives. 

“Dr. Holmes is an expert and gives patients very natural, but dramatic results. She’s a stickler and goes with her gut,” she said.

Janet relied on the experts at Soulstis Med Spa to help improve her skin and boost her confidence. She struggled with acne into adulthood and the effects of aging were starting to show; causing her self-esteem to suffer. She had given up on her skin, and when it got even worse, she knew it was time to try one more thing.

Janet got started with a consultation at Soulstis and improved her skin care regime by  using Skin Sceuticals products. She saw improvement after just seven days.

Step two was a vibraderm, which exfoliates the epidermis of the skin and stimulates collagen growth. Janet saw fewer fine lines and age spots, smaller pores, improved texture and tone. Her acne scars were less visible.

The next step in Janet’s treatment was a series of V-Beam laser treatments to attack the persistent redness in her skin. This not only reduced the redness, but also tightened her skin in the process. Later, Janet received a ProFractional, a resurfacing procedure that tightened her skin even further and improved her acne scars. She said she absolutely loved the results and felt great about the way her skin looked. She also received a series of photofacials, which were able to further treat her acne scars and reduce wrinkles. The dramatic results that Janet has experienced in not only her skin but her confidence have caused her to trust the health of her skin entirely to the team at Soulstis.

“I do everything they tell me to,” she said. Janet maintains her skin with vibraderms, Botox, Skinsceuticals products and makeup by SkinMD.

At Soulstis, Janet learned the fundamentals of skin care.

Meet Madison

Madison’s acne made going to school so hard that she once asked her parents if she could be homeschooled. With their decline, Madison became the master of hiding her skin. Her hair was always down, covering as much of her face as possible. In class, she would rest her face in her hands and masked her skin with a big sweatshirt. Nobody saw her without makeup.

Madison before Soulstis Med Spa

Her confidence was depleted and Madison tried everything to correct her skin. She tried products over the counter and bought treatments online; she changed her diet and even saw a dermatologist. Madison’s skin didn’t get better, and as senior year approached, she was dreading taking her senior pictures. She cried that day and refused to have any close-up photos taken.

A few weeks later, Madison’s aunt, Amy (Soulstis Med Spa employee) called to say that they had been seeing some great results from a new acne treatment at Soulstis. She encouraged Madison to give it a try. Madison first visited Soulstis Med Spa for a consultation with Dr. Holmes, who devised a plan to not just make Madison’s skin more clear, but to actually change the foundation of her skin.

A month before prom, Madison received Levulan®, a laser therapy treatment used to treat severe cystic acne. A week after the procedure and for the first time ever, Madison saw her skin getting better. Dr. Holmes also performed four blue light laser treatments on Madison to improve her skin’s condition. After her second treatment, Madison left the house without makeup on.

Four weeks later at prom, Madison felt pretty and not just because she liked her dress or hairstyle. She felt pretty because for the first time, she felt confident in her own skin.

Madison after Soulstis Med Spa

To maintain her clear skin, Madison receives vibraderm treatments, which exfoliate the skin and improve texture, tone, pore size and acne scars. She will also receive another Levulon treatment to further clear her skin.  If you have acne, the treatments Madison received may help your skin, too.

"I had a dark spot on my face and had two laser treatments. I'm very satisfied with the results. I would highly recommend Soulstis Med Spa."

-Cindy Zauher

"I noticed a big difference after one treatment to remove my noticeable birthmark. Now I feel great because no one can even tell it was ever there!

-Alicia Priglmeier

"For more than 10 years, I had a quarter-sized red spider web of veins right in the middle of my calf. It bugged me every time I caught a glimpse of it in a dressing room mirror or if someone would say, 'What did you do to your leg?' Like nails on a chalkboard, it bugged me. When I stopped at a laser center in St. Cloud, they said it would cost $600 to get rid of it--now that hurt! I decided to try Soulstis Med Spa and Dr. Leigh was fantastic! She understood how I felt and explained the treatment plan step by step. No more spider veins is the best part, but the low cost runs a close second!"
-Kim Watson

"I feel better about myself. The treatments have made me look younger, especially when I see my before and after pictures. Dr. Holmes and her staff are always up to date on the newest treatments...they're experts!"
-Sandy Smith, Little Falls

"I've had vericose veins as long as I can remember. After four surgeries, my legs were bruised and discolored. It only took one treatment at Soulstis Med Spa before I saw a difference. The bruised appearance has lightened and the discoloration is nearly gone."
-Debbie Hill

"I was so impressed by just one treatment that I came back for another on my smaller spider veins. I love the results! Instead of wearing capris to hide my legs, I can now wear shorter shorts!"
-Christine Bradley

“I have never felt prettier!  I receive compliments every week on how nice my skin looks.  People comment on how smooth and clear my complexion is, how it GLOWS.  This didn’t happen before I began to come to see Dr. Leigh at Soulstis Med Spa.  I love the staff at Soulstis.  They make you feel so good about yourself, so at ease and comfortable. I actually look forward to my appointments  as they are actually a social event, not just a procedural time.  Not only do I appreciate my Botox® and skin laser treatments from Soulstis, the new Sciton system they have is phenomenal. I saw major improvements in redness and pigment from sun damage in just one treatment on my arms/chest and upper back.  The improvement in skin laxity on my neck and jowl line was amazing after just one SkinTyte treatment."
-Lori Badeaux
