Expert-backed skincare advice, beauty science, and real answers about what works, what doesn’t, and why—so you can make confident choices for your skin.
-
Who created these skincare protocols and why?The protocols were developed by Dr. Iryna Lazuk as complete cosmetic skincare systems designed to support long-term skin health, balance, and comfort through coordinated routines.
-
What is a skincare protocol?A skincare protocol is a coordinated cosmetic skincare system designed to work together as a complete routine. Unlike using individual products to target isolated concerns, a protocol supports the skin as an interconnected system.
-
Do I need to take the quiz to compare protocols?No. The quiz is optional. You can compare all protocols directly using the comparison tool on this page if you prefer.
-
Why use a complete skincare protocol instead of individual products?When skincare focuses on one concern at a time, it can unintentionally disrupt other aspects of the skin. Complete protocols are designed to support balance, comfort, hydration, and renewal together, helping reduce the cycle of fixing one issue while triggering another.
-
What is I am worried about choosing the wrong protocol?You don’t need to choose perfectly. This page is designed to give clarity, not urgency. The quiz, comparison tool, and protocol descriptions work together to help you select an approach that feels aligned with your current priorities.
-
How does a the quiz determine my primary and secondary protocol?Your answers are mapped to overarching skin patterns such as hydration and luminosity, firming and renewal, calm and resilience, or clarity and balance. The quiz highlights a primary alignment and a secondary alignment to make comparison easier and reduce the pressure of choosing perfectly.
-
Is this quiz a diagnosis or prescritption?No. This quiz is not diagnostic and does not prescribe anything. It is a decision-support tool designed to help you compare complete cosmetic skincare protocols based on how your skin behaves and what you are prioritizing right now.
-
Can more than one protocol be relevant to me?Yes. Many people find that more than one protocol feels relevant depending on season, lifestyle, or changes in skin behavior. The comparison tool is designed to help you explore options without pressure.
-
Can you bundle roller massage treatments with other services?Yes! Many clients schedule Roller Massage together with our HIFEM (High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic) it's INSANE! , hydra-facials, injectables, or PRP to improve circulation and enhance glow. We always look to offer customized plans for all of our guests and will happily create your own comprehensive solution that is PERFECT just for you.
-
Does it help with weightloss?Roller Massage is not a weight-loss procedure, but it enhances contour, skin tone, and circulation — all of which help you look and feel lighter. Many clients who follow a healthy lifestyle utilize the benefits of roller massage treatments as a post workout routine, twice a week which helps to detoxify as well as improve overall circulation.
-
Is there any downtime?None. You can resume normal activities immediately.
-
How many sessions do I need.A series of 6–10 treatments per zone delivers optimal long-term sculpting and smoothing benefits. Ideally, sessions would be booked twice a week in succession until completed. It's important when thinking about roller massage treatments, that it is a time commitment on your side as well to achieve optimal results.
-
Does it hurt?The treatment feels therapeutic, invigorating, and surprisingly soothing. Tender areas usually indicate lymphatic congestion and improve quickly with repeated sessions.
-
Is it safe for everyone?Those with active infections, uncontrolled cardiovascular conditions, or significant inflammation should consult their doctor before treatment.
-
How fast will I see results?Most clients notice a visible lift, smoother texture, and reduced puffiness almost immediately after one or two sessions, which are spaced no more than 3 days apart.
-
Will I break out after the facial?Most clients experience clearer, more balanced skin after treatment. If extractions or deep detoxification are needed, mild purging is possible but temporary.
-
Is HydraFacial really included?Yes. At Dr. Lazuk Esthetics®, it is a standard part of our 1.5-hour comprehensive treatment.
-
What skincare products are used during the facial?We use high-quality, dermatologist-formulated products from Dr. Lazuk Cosmetics®, featuring Centella Asiatica, peptides, hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and clean botanical extracts.
-
Is this facial good for sensitive skin?Yes — we customize exfoliation, massage intensity, and product selection for even the most reactive skin.
-
Do you perform extractions, and are they painful?Extractions are done only when needed, using gentle, precise techniques to avoid irritation or scarring. Most clients find them completely tolerable.
-
Does it help with acne or breakouts?Yes. Deep cleansing, gentle exfoliation, and extractions help reduce congestion and inflammation.
-
Is this facial good for aging skin?Absolutely. The combination of micro-current, Endospheres sculpting massage, peptides, hydration boosters, and exfoliation helps soften fine lines, improve elasticity, and restore a youthful glow.
-
How long does the full beauty facial take?Our comprehensive facial lasts approximately 90 minutes, allowing enough time for deep cleansing, exfoliation, sculpting massage, HydraFacial, nutrient infusion, and complete skin restoration.
-
Can I do this before an event?Absolutely — your skin will look radiant immediately.
-
Can I book this if I have sensitive skin or rosacea?Yes. Our estheticians customize exfoliation intensity, hydration boosters, and massage pressure to ensure even the most sensitive skin feels calm, soothed, and supported.
-
How often should I get a beauty facial?Every 4-6 weeks is ideal for maintaining clear, hydrated, glowing skin
-
Which skin types benefit most?All skin types — including oily, dry, combination, acne-prone, and sensitive. Each facial is individualized based on your skin analysis and treatment goals.
-
Can your products help with sensitive or reactive skin?Yes. I formulate with clean, science-backed ingredients like Centella Asiatica, peptides, and hyaluronic acid—without irritants such as parabens, sulfates, essential oils, or alcohols. Most sensitive clients do extremely well with our cleansers, emulsion, toner pads, and mineral sunscreen.
-
Do I need to use all the steps in your routine to get results?Not at all. Even two or three well-chosen products can transform your skin. I recommend starting with the essentials: a gentle cleanser, targeted treatment (like peptides or brightening actives), and daily mineral sunscreen. You can always build from there as your skin improves.
-
Are your products safe to use with professional treatments like Botox or laser?Yes. In fact, combining high-quality at-home care with in-office treatments often improves and prolongs results. I’ll always guide you on which products to use before and after procedures to protect your skin barrier and enhance healing.
-
How do I know which Dr. Lazuk products are right for my skin?Every skin type has unique needs, which is why my products are formulated to be both effective and gentle. If you’re unsure where to start, focus on your top concern—hydration, pigmentation, acne, or aging. You can also schedule a virtual or in-clinic consultation, and I’ll guide you to the perfect routine.
-
How long does it take to see results with your skincare?Most people notice early improvements—like softer, calmer, more hydrated skin—within the first 7–14 days. Deeper changes such as reduced pigmentation, smoother texture, or fewer fine lines typically take 4–8 weeks with consistent use.
-
What’s the difference between your skincare and typical store brands?My formulas are created by a dermatologist—not a marketing team. Each product uses high-quality actives at clinically meaningful concentrations, leaving out fillers and harsh additives that often cause irritation. You get luxury-level performance with medical-grade integrity.
