Healthy Skin Begins With Understanding Your Skin
Personalized care. Professional products. Thoughtful education.
Your skin is unique, and your care should be too.
At Botta Medical Aesthetics & Wellness, Liz Botta, RN, approaches skin care as an advocate and educator first. She begins by looking at your skin as a whole. Your concerns, sensitivity, texture, sun exposure, current products, previous treatments, and what you would like to improve are important.
Beautiful, luminous skin begins with what you do every day. Liz believes that understanding how and why you care for your skin is just as important as the products or treatments you choose.

From there, your individualized skin-health plan may include professional home skin care, Environ Cool Peel treatments, Laser Genesis, or a thoughtful combination of these approaches.
The goal is simple: healthier-looking, more resilient skin over time.
Why We Use Environ Skin Care
What you do at home matters.
BMAW uses Environ professional skin care because its philosophy closely aligns with ours: skin care should be based on science, consistency, and supporting healthy skin, not chasing trends.
Founded by plastic surgeon Dr. Des Fernandes, Environ places Vitamin A at the center of its skin-care philosophy, together with antioxidants, peptides, and other carefully selected ingredients.
One of the things Liz particularly values about Environ is its gradual approach to Vitamin A.
Rather than starting with the strongest formulation, Environ's Vitamin STEP-UP SYSTEM™ allows the skin to become accustomed to increasing levels of Vitamin A over time.
Start low. Build slowly. Stay consistent.
Your home routine is selected according to your skin, your concerns, and what your skin is ready for, not according to a one-size-fits-all regimen.
Professional Environ Skin Treatments
Home care provides the foundation, but professional treatments can provide additional support when appropriate.
Environ Cool Peel treatments use a controlled professional approach to exfoliation and skin rejuvenation. Different formulations and treatment strengths can be selected depending on the condition of the skin and the goal of treatment.
Cool Peel may be considered for concerns including uneven texture, congestion, blemish-prone skin, pigmentation, sun-damaged appearance, or visible signs of aging.
Sensitive or compromised skin may require a very different approach than thicker, oily, or congested skin—which is why evaluation comes first.
Laser Genesis
For appropriate clients, Cutera Xeo Laser Genesis may also be incorporated into a skin-health plan.
Laser Genesis uses non-ablative 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser technology to gently heat the skin below the surface. Depending on the individual, it may be used to address concerns such as redness, uneven texture, inflammatory acne, and the appearance of certain age-related skin changes.

Your Plan May Look Different From Someone Else's
One person may benefit most from changing what they use at home.
Another may benefit from professional Environ treatments.
Someone else may benefit from Laser Genesis or a combination of approaches.
And sometimes, the best recommendation is to do less, not more.
That is why we begin by looking at the person and the skin in front of us rather than putting everyone into the same protocol.
You Don't Need to Know What Treatment You Need
You do not need to diagnose your own skin or decide which treatment to book before coming to see us.
Bring your questions.
Bring the products you're already using.
Tell us what bothers you about your skin and what you would like to improve.
We will help you understand what we see, what may be contributing to your concerns, and which BMAW options may—or may not—be appropriate for you.
Good skin care doesn't have to be complicated. It needs to make sense.
