Summary

What makes Vanessa Lee one of the most sought-after medical aesthetics practitioners is her commitment to teaching and learning about all things beauty and science. During our conversation, Vanessa details her hands-on experience learning from beauty practitioners in Korea, including standing in for a model and receiving a treatment during a demonstration. Before her foray into the world of natural beauty aesthetics, Vanessa grew up bonding with her peers over beauty and skincare. Bonding over beauty carried into her professional life as she blended art and science to help her patients meet their beauty goals, while always looking like themselves.

We regularly see her seamless work on our screens and feel her impact without knowing. In 2017, Vanessa coined the phrase “facial balancing” and began providing her clients the now wildly popular services before the rest of the public caught up. She teaches Beauty Theory courses to other professionals to help prevent cookie-cutter treatments that don’t complement all face shapes. Our discussion is a mini-Beauty Theory course because Vanessa teaches us about procedures, her practice, and global industry norms. We learn about how facial shapes can determine how our skin will age, why K-Beauty is always light years ahead of the U.S., and how she supports clients in need of therapeutic support.

Tune in as we discuss:

Whether or not people should have micro-cosmetic treatments done or wait for a facelift in the future
The best laser treatments for melasma and hyperpigmentation on dark skin and what they cost
Advice on traveling to Korea for cosmetic procedures, including what Vanessa spent on her most recent trip
