As the seasons change, so should our skincare routines. Dr. Bushra Helmandi, a certified chiropractor turned MedSpa owner, knows this better than anyone. At her practice, Beauty Body Aesthetics, located on Lexington Avenue in New York City, Dr. Helmandi merges her expertise in holistic wellness with cutting-edge skincare treatments. Her journey from chiropractic care to opening a MedSpa was driven by a passion for helping individuals look and feel confident, both inside and out. In a recent Q&A, Dr. Helmandi shares insights on the latest skincare trends, seasonal transitions, and her approach to achieving glowing skin.
What inspired you to transition from chiropractic care to opening a med spa, and how do you integrate your background into your skincare treatments?
 Transitioning from chiropractic care to opening a med spa was inspired by my passion for holistic wellness and helping people feel their best inside and out. Integrating my background into skincare treatments involves a personalized approach that considers overall health, alignment, and balance to enhance the effectiveness of each treatment.
What are some of the key skincare trends you’re seeing in 2024 that you believe will help clients transition from summer to fall?
Ah, the beauty trends of 2024 are all about that smooth transition from summer to fall! We’re talking about hydrating like there’s no tomorrow, exfoliating gently to reveal that glowing skin, and embracing multi-functional products that are like superheroes for your skincare routine. It’s all about making that seasonal shift a breeze!
You’ve just launched a new skincare line at Beauty Body Aesthetics. Can you tell us about the inspiration behind the line and how it addresses specific skincare needs, especially during the change in seasons?
Our new skincare line at Beauty Body Aesthetics was inspired by the desire to offer clients high-quality, effective products tailored to their specific needs. With ingredients like vitamin C, soothing botanicals, and advanced antioxidants, our line addresses concerns such as hydration, sun protection, and rejuvenation, especially during seasonal transitions. We’ve blended science and nature to create products that truly pamper and rejuvenate your skin.
How important is it to adjust your skincare routine as the seasons change, and what are the common mistakes people make during this transition?
Adjusting your skincare routine with the seasons is a game-changer for your skin health. Common mistakes people make during this transition include forgetting to hydrate, skipping sunscreen, or using products that are too harsh. It’s all about finding that sweet spot—lighter textures, boosted hydration, and showing your skin some TLC as the weather shifts.
Can you share some of the latest innovations in skincare technology that your med spa offers to address post-summer skin concerns?
At our med spa, we’re all about the latest in skincare tech to tackle post-summer skin blues. We offer DiamondGlow facials for gentle exfoliation and hydration, Laser Genesis for radiant skin rejuvenation, and Microneedling with PRP for collagen stimulation. It’s all about achieving that next-level glow!
How do you approach skincare holistically, and what advice would you give to clients who want to achieve glowing skin from the inside out?
When it comes to skincare, we’re all about a holistic approach—because beauty is not just skin deep. We encourage our clients to focus on glowing skin from the inside out through a balanced diet, staying hydrated, managing stress, maintaining a healthy sleep schedule, and using tailored skincare products. This is the ultimate recipe for radiance!
What role does hydration play in transitioning skin from summer to fall, and do you have any specific product recommendations?
Hydration is crucial as we move from summer to fall because cooler weather can lead to dryness and dehydration. I recommend products with hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and humectants to lock in moisture. Our skincare line includes a soothing moisturizer and hydrating serums that will leave your skin feeling nourished and radiant.
Many people struggle with lingering sun damage or pigmentation after the summer. What treatments do you recommend to address these issues?Â
To address sun damage and pigmentation issues post-summer, we offer treatments like the VI Peel to resurface and brighten the skin, and Laser Genesis to target sun spots and even out skin tone. It’s all about restoring that glow and confidence!
Dr. Helmandi’s expertise and holistic approach make her a go-to resource for navigating skincare needs year-round. As we head into fall and winter, her insights remind us that taking care of our skin is more than just a routine—it’s a commitment to our overall well-being.
