My name is Balsam Alabassi and I am the founder of DermRefine aesthetic Skin clinic. I set out my journey with the prime objective to operate with integrity and transparency to advocate your right to look and feel beautiful.
So here is my story and the voice behind the name. I would love it if you could join me in conversation with Skinpharma Aesthetics on Google Podcasts, iTunes, or Spotify.
Now that you know a little more about me, I hope that you can see that I strive to provide you with a complete care solution to enabling you to be the best that you could possibly be. My aim is to matter to you. Even if I matter to one, that is all that matters to me.
Although I treat patients who look to enhance their looks through antiwrinkle treatments and dermal fillers, I am passionate about regenerative medicine utilizing growth factors and collagen stimulation to enhance your skin health, restore your hair growth, and manage your weight empowering you to take ownership of your confidence.
Your skin is the biggest living organ in your body. If you look after it then, it will ultimately look after you. So wear your skin with pride and don’t wear it down.
