Hi there! I'm Sophia, the owner and licensed esthetician at The Face Place Acne + Esthetics.
I grew up with acne and was bullied for it, but if I tried to cover it up I was wearing "too much makeup", which pushed me to go to esthetician school in 2018. At school, I became passionate about skin, specifically acne. I started my esthetics journey working at a relaxing spa, then a medical spa before moving on and opening my business in 2021.
Later that year I became a certified Acne Specialist and started helping many people clear their stubborn acne. It has been so special to me to watch my client's confidence in themselves grow throughout our time together.
In 2022, I launched SartiSkincare, a corrective, hydrating, and acne-safe skincare line. Frustrated by the prevalent issue of excessively drying and over-exfoliating acne products, I created a solution. SartiSkincare breaks the mold by providing effective high-quality skincare that clears acne without compromising hydration—a win-win for clear, healthy skin.
I hope to see you and help you become your most confident self soon!
