Where We Are Now
FROM THE EDITOR
Wow, what a summer. From
sheltering in place and shutting
down businesses, to slowly
reopening with myriad new
laws, rules, protocols, and
procedures in place, it's been
a dicult time. And, as of
this writing, COVID-19 cases
are on the rise once more,
causing some states to shut
down businesses—again. It's
confusing, chaotic, scary, and
utterly exhausting.
As we continue to move
through this unpredictable
time, the ASCP team wants you
to know we are here for you.
What do you need? Let us know. From our Back to Practice guide and educational videos to
discounts, marketing materials, and a payment plan to help you keep your membership, we're
working hard to make sure you have what you need to reopen your business and make sure your
clients feel safe in returning to you.
We also want to help you keep your business moving forward, which is why we've made this
issue as evergreen as possible. Many thing have changed, but eective treatments remain the
same. It is our hope that when you refer back to this issue in months, or even years, the articles
will remain relevant to your practice.
Beyond the regular, information-loaded columns, our features focus on how to decide
whether that fun, new device that caught your eye is worth the money (because we know you
want to buy them all); considerations to understand when performing peels on darker skin; and
some luxurious body exfoliation treatments that will relax and pamper your clients—especially
if you practice in a state that doesn't yet allow facials.
Stay safe, be strong, and keep moving forward. We'll be with you every step of the way.
Be well,
Mary Barthelme Abel, Editor
