There's something magical about April in New Jersey.
The cherry blossoms finally make their appearance, the air feels fresher, and suddenly we're all itching to shed our winter layers – both in our closets and on our skin! And for those that love a good outdoor cocktail when the weather is nice, it's also the perfect time to refresh your look with treatments that let your natural beauty shine.
I've noticed my clients coming in with the same concerns lately:
"Michelle, my skin feels so dull and tired after winter."
"I want to look refreshed for spring, but still like myself."
I get it completely. After months of cold air, indoor heating, and probably a bit less water than we'd all like to admit (you ALL know my obsession with staying hydrated), our skin is practically begging for some serious TLC.
What Your Skin is Really Asking For This Spring
As my client Matt Banta shared, "Even if you aren't sure of what you are looking for but know you want healthy features and youthful look…. She can help you!" I hear this sentiment from so many clients who come to me not quite knowing exactly what treatments they need, but knowing they want to look refreshed and more youthful.
Your skin right now isn't just dry, it's craving three things: deep hydration (beyond what your drugstore moisturizer can provide), collagen stimulation (which naturally decreases as we age), and protective ingredients that fight environmental damage (which, yes, gets worse with spring sun exposure).
April Treatments I'm Loving for My Clients
The "Lunch Break Refresh" - Wrinkle Release
April Special: $50 off – Now $200 per area (Regularly $250)
So many clients tell me, "I don't want to look frozen, just less... angry." That's exactly what proper wrinkle-releasing treatments should do! I'm looking at your unique facial movements and expressions when administering these treatments. The goal isn't to paralyze it, it's to soften those lines that make you look tired or worried while maintaining natural expression.
The best results are subtle but transformative, where friends think you've finally gotten good sleep! That's the outcome I aim for every time.
The "Youth Whisperer" - Sculptra
April Special: $200 off your first session – Now $1,200
This is truly my favorite treatment for clients wanting long-term, natural results. Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra works with your body to stimulate your collagen production.
What amazes me about Sculptra is seeing the one-year follow-ups. The transformation isn't dramatic or obvious, and it's a subtle restoration that brings back that bounce and glow from within. My clients often say they look like themselves from 5 years ago, which is exactly the result we want.
The "Spring Balance" - Strategic Filler
April Special: $150 off first syringe with 2+ syringes, $100 off each additional
When clients come in worried about looking "overdone," I always explain my philosophy: balance and proportion are everything. True beauty isn't about overfilling one area – it's about understanding how all your features work together.
I love treating clients concerned about thinning lips but terrified of "duck lips." By focusing on subtle hydration and definition with just the right amount of volume, we can achieve results that look natural. The best reaction is, "I can't believe it they look like MY lips from my old photos!"
The "Summer-Ready" Plan - Medical Weight Loss
April Special: $100 off the first month
I'm so excited about our medical weight loss program because I've seen firsthand how transformative it can be for my clients. This isn't about crash dieting, it's about creating sustainable changes with medical support that works with your body's natural processes.
What I love seeing most in this program is not just the weight loss numbers, but how people's energy improves and cravings diminish. Sometimes the confidence boost from feeling healthy inside creates a glow that no skincare product can match!
My Personal Spring Skincare Must-Haves
The Morning Game-Changer: Vitamin C
I literally will not leave my house without applying Vitamin C serum. Not exaggerating! After years of testing countless formulations, I'm obsessed with Alumier MD EverActive C&E + Peptide. Unlike most Vitamin C products that oxidize quickly (that yellow-brown color means it's not working anymore!), this one stays fresh and potent.
I noticed a dramatic difference in my own hyperpigmentation within weeks of consistent use. It's like brightness in a bottle, plus it's building collagen while you're going about your day!
Non-Negotiable: Mineral SPF
If there's one thing my clients know about me, it's that I'm absolutely passionate about sun protection. SPF is the foundation of any effective skincare routine. there's simply no point in investing in treatments and products if you're not going to protect your skin from UV damage.
Mineral-based protection like Alumier MD Clear Shield is my go-to recommendation for everyone. What makes this one special? It doesn't leave that ghostly white cast, doesn't clog pores, and has added antioxidants.
I tell all my clients to keep one in their purse, one in their car, and one on their bathroom counter. No excuses!
Clear Shield Broad Spectrum SPF 42
High-Performance Daily
ProtectionSunscreens that go beyond the science of skin defense. Unlock smooth, hydrated and radiant skin daily with a broad-spectrum sunscreen you can’t wait to apply.
My Regenerative Secret: Plated Skin Science
You've probably heard me gushing about exosome technology if you've been in my office lately. This isn't just another trendy ingredient, and it's transformative science. These tiny messengers tell your skin cells to act younger.
I use it personally after every microneedling session, and the recovery time has been cut in half. My skin bounces back faster, and the results last longer. It's honestly the future of skincare.
Note: Available for in-person pickup only at Herasme Beauty. Shipping options coming soon!
Why April is the Perfect Time to Start Your Skin Journey
Remember when we were kids and spring meant fresh starts? That feeling doesn't have to go away just because we're adults. Your skin cells are actually more receptive to renewal treatments as we transition seasons.
Plus, let's be practical, starting treatments now means you'll be glowing for summer photos, weddings, and beach days. Nothing worse than rushing a skin transformation right before a big event!
Whether you're bothered by winter dullness, concerned about early signs of aging, or want to feel more confident without makeup (hello, No Makeup Day on April 26th!), now is your time to bloom.
Send me a message or call the office to grab one of our April specials before they're gone! I'd love to create a personalized spring awakening plan just for you.
With love and regenerative science, Michelle

Michelle's Beauty Empowerment Corner – April Edition 🌸
Spring is the season of renewal, including your skin, confidence, and self-care routines. This month, I want to remind you that beauty empowerment isn’t about doing it all, it’s about doing what feels right for you.
Whether you’re exploring treatments like wrinkle release, strategic filler, or collagen-stimulating Sculptra, the goal is never perfection. It’s balance. It’s confidence. It’s waking up, looking in the mirror, and saying, “I feel like myself again.”
Let’s talk about two powerhouse treatments creating major glow-ups this season, because beauty empowerment starts with understanding what’s possible.
Plated INTENSE Serum
This isn’t your average serum. Packed with over a trillion exosomes per bottle (yes, you read that right), this regenerative formula helps reduce fine lines, redness, dark spots, and uneven texture. It's like sending a wake-up call to your skin at the cellular level. Clients are seeing visible results in just 6 weeks—and loving their radiant, smoothed-out glow!
The Brow Lift (with Neurotoxin)
Tired of looking tired? A subtle brow lift using Botox or Xeomin can relax specific muscles to lift and open the eye area, giving you that refreshed, rested look—without surgery or downtime. It’s quick, customizable, and perfect for that “I woke up like this” vibe.
Empowerment Tip of the Month: Small, targeted treatments can make a big impact on your confidence. It’s not about changing your face, it’s about letting your natural beauty shine through.
Got questions about which treatment fits your glow-up goals? Slide into my DMs @herasmebeauty I’d love to help you feel lifted, radiant, and ready for spring. 🌸
