Skin

Welcome - I'm so glad you are here! 

If you're reading this, chances are you've been on a frustrating search for answers to persistent, challenging skin issues. I'm talking about the kind of skin that has you saying: "I've always been told I have sensitive skin," or "I can't use anything," or "Everything makes me red and breakout." I hear you, and I want you to know: Relief and stability are absolutely possible. I genuinely want you to feel welcomed, understood, and completely confident that we can build a successful path to your goals. 

My Passion: Solving Challenging Skin Cases

What sets Anna Skin & Wellness apart is my absolute passion for solving the most challenging skin cases. I live for finding successful outcomes for skin that feels defeated—the sensitive, reactive, acne-prone, eczema, rosacea, and menopausal or perimenopausal skin changes that haven't found relief elsewhere. You are not just another client; you are a partner in a journey to stabilize and strengthen your skin.

My approach is focused on repairing and protecting your skin barrier. This holistic, root-cause method is how we get to the bottom of chronic redness, inflammation, and the impact of hormonal shifts. This foundation of skin health is called Corneotherapy approach and how we calm the conditions to achieve lasting results. I believe in empowering my clients with knowledge, so you fully understand why we are doing what we're doing and can confidently manage your skin long-term.

Why Choose Anna as Your Skin Partner?

My commitment to helping my clients shines through in every consultation. I truly believe that no one should have to live with uncomfortable, unstable skin. This is why I've done the research and hand-selected products from multiple lines to support even the most sensitive skin—I will work tirelessly to help you find a solution.

Whether you're just starting out and need a basic, gentle routine (I love working with anyone, especially beginners!), or you're a seasoned client looking for expert guidance to extend the life of your cosmetic treatments, I've got you. We'll take things one strategic step at a time and pivot as needed, ensuring our partnership is dynamic and effective.

Experience the Convenience of "TheOnlineSkinCoach"

You don't need to visit an office to get highly personalized, prescriptive skincare. While I'm proud to be based in the Twin Cities, Minnesota, with my Virtual Appointments, I bring expertise and convenience right to your home. From your in-depth Initial Consult to guided at-home treatments, I'll be there every step of the way.

My virtual practice is perfect for anyone, but especially:

Teens away at college or young adults needing guidance without in-person access.

Individuals who travel frequently, have dual residency, or busy schedules.

Clients who don't want to worry about starting over with a new Esthetician if they move—our partnership travels with you!

Skincare is a marathon, not a sprint. With my focus on skin barrier health, you'll have the personalized knowledge, resources, and support to reach your goals. I'm here to celebrate small victories and offer unwavering support when the journey gets tough.

Ready to have a partner who truly cares about solving your complex skin challenges and building a resilient routine with you?

I look forward to working with you! — Anna

My Philosophy

Barrier First Approach

I follow a barrier first approach when it comes to skin care. Your skin's barrier is the superficial outermost layer of skin with a VERY important job - it maintains the integrity of your skin. When the barrier is compromised from harsh products or aggressive treatments, it creates an opportunity for loss of hydration or the introduction of bacteria. The result is irritation, redness, and even breakouts.

All products available from Anna Skin & Wellness have been carefully vetted to meet my highest standard of care, free of irritants and in alignment with Corneotherpay to protect your barrier.
