Celia T Koski, RDH, LA, PST
As the owner of Face First, Celia discovered the field of therapeutic skin care when she made a career change after more than thirty years in the dental profession. She was drawn to skin care for the caring and nurturing aspect of the profession and the medical and biological foundation behind providing therapeutic skin treatments to treat skin conditions, skin diseases, improve skin health and prevent skin cancer.
As a professional skin therapist, Celia is passionate about educating clients regarding skin health, skin diseases/conditions, skin cancer prevention and the benefits of regular professional skin treatments. In treatment sessions, clients will be provided with product samples that are suited specifically for their skin type and skin condition along with broad spectrum physical sunscreen.

To achieve maximum efficacy in skin treatments and client home care, Celia has partnered with Dermalogica as her primary product line.
