CERTIFIED LEVEL 2 ACNE SPECIALIST THROUGH FACE REALITY SKINCARE
Meet Melanie
My name is Melanie Turner and I am a Licensed Esthetician with over 11 years of experience in both Alabama and Virginia. ​
My mission is to help each client feel confident and refreshed—body, mind, and skin.
Throughout my career, I’ve gained extensive expertise in a wide range of advanced skincare treatments, including Laser Hair Removal, Tattoo Removal, Basic and Advanced Facial Treatments, Microneedling, CoolPeel COâ‚‚ Laser, Hydrafacials, Chemical Peels, Dermaplaning, Microdermabrasion, and Body Tightening procedures. I’m also trained in therapeutic massage techniques to enhance the overall treatment experience.​
Before finding Melanie, I struggled with persistent acne that began in May 2023 during a period of high stress. Over time, it worsened despite multiple visits to dermatologists who prescribed harsh medications and topicals. These treatments severely damaged my skin barrier, leaving my skin inflamed and even more sensitive. In November 2023, I made the decision to stop birth control and focus on naturally balancing my hormones, but my acne continued to be a challenge.
Client Case Study
When I started working with Melanie in February 2024, my skin was at its worst. From the very first appointment, I knew I was in the right hands. She introduced me to the Face Reality Acne Bootcamp and biweekly peels, which not only calmed my inflammation but also began the process of clearing my skin. Once my breakouts were under control, we shifted focus to treating acne scars with targeted treatments and products.
Now, after more than a year of working with Melanie, my skin has completely transformed. Her expertise, personalized approach, and unwavering support have been life-changing. More than just a skincare expert, Melanie genuinely cares about her clients, and I always feel welcomed and valued in her care. I couldn’t be more grateful for her dedication in helping me clear my skin.
"Melanie is absolutely amazing! I've been getting facials from her regularly for 5 months now and my skin has never looked better. She's very knowledgeable, and always has great recommendations for things that will help my skin look its best (and she's been spot on every. single. time!). I recommend her to anyone that asks for skincare recommendations, she's seriously the best!"
