Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Craig Schacher

Sourced directly from Dr. Craig Schacher's social posts and replies.

What is Attiva and what are its benefits?
Attiva is a treatment that helps patients age gracefully by improving skin laxity and overall skin quality. Treatments typically result in little to no downtime.
How should I prepare for a laser facial?
Before a laser facial, patients should arrive with clean, product-free skin. It's important to avoid sun exposure and tanning, and to pause irritating active ingredients like retinoids and exfoliating acids as directed by your provider. Following these steps helps ensure the best possible treatment experience.
How should I prepare for laser hair removal?
For laser hair removal, it's important to shave the treatment area about 24 hours before your appointment. This allows the laser to effectively target the hair follicle beneath the skin, making the treatment more effective and reducing the risk of irritation or burning. Patients should avoid waxing or plucking, as the hair follicle needs to be intact for the laser to work.
What is Dr. Schacher's recommended 'Fall Reset' routine for wellness and skin health?
Dr. Schacher suggests fall is an ideal time to re-establish healthy habits. This includes adding Glutathione Complex (a powerful antioxidant supporting cellular health, antioxidant defenses, and overall wellness) to your routine, upgrading hydration by adding a pinch of mineral-rich sea salt to water for trace minerals, and resuming your treatment schedule. Fall is also perfect for addressing summer sun exposure signs like pigmentation and sun spots with treatments like Freckle Tone, which aims for brighter, more even-looking skin. This routine supports wellness from the inside while caring for the skin on the outside.
