Clinical-grade peels, microneedling, Skinvive boosters, and 503A-compounded prescription skincare — tretinoin, melasma, and acne formulas dispensed through our pharmacy partner. Every protocol assessed and prescribed by Kristen-Anne Thomas, FNP-BC. Not over-the-counter.
§ KEY Takeaways
§ 02 Florida Skin
Central Florida punishes skin in ways drugstore products can’t fix. Year-round UV, ~70% average humidity, and salt-air aging compound faster than retinol-by-mail can keep up. Our protocols are calibrated for Florida-resident skin — sun-exposed, humidity-tested, and barrier-stressed.
10+ months of UV produces sun spots, melasma, and uneven tone faster than northern climates. Treated with SkinMedica Vitalize/Rejuvenize peels + compounded hydroquinone formulas.
Florida heat triggers vasodilation and chronic redness. Treated with prescription topicals (azelaic, ivermectin) + gentle SkinPen + barrier repair via SkinMedica HA5.
Humidity + sweat + sunscreen residue = clogged pores year-round. Treated with Winlevi (clascoterone) for hormonal acne, compounded BPO/retinol gels, and Acne Keto cream.
Daily UV breaks down collagen 5× faster than indoor lifestyles. Treated with SkinPen ELITE microneedling, retinoid (tretinoin) protocols, and Skinvive HA boosters.
Coastal proximity wicks moisture from the skin barrier. Treated with Skinvive skin boosters and SkinMedica HA5 hydrator.
UV + heat + dehydration accelerate fine lines, laxity, and dullness. Treated with combination protocols — peels + microneedling + Rx skincare layered for compounding effect.
§ 03 Decision Guide
Most skin goals respond best to a layered protocol — in-clinic resurfacing or boosting, plus prescription topicals for daily maintenance. Here’s what we recommend per concern.

| Glow / Pre-Event | Illuminize Peel 7–10 days before | SkinMedica HA5 daily | Same day |
§ 04 Chemical Peels
Reviv exclusively offers SkinMedica professional peels — the gold standard in medical-grade resurfacing. Each strength is calibrated to your skin’s tolerance and goals; many patients combine peels with microneedling or prescription topicals for compounding results.
Lightest depth, no visible peeling. Best for first-time peel patients, mild dullness, melasma maintenance, and pre-event glow.
Most popular depth. Mild flaking on days 3–5. Best for mild-moderate sun damage, fine lines, and uneven tone.
Deepest depth. Visible peeling days 3–7. Best for moderate-severe sun damage, deeper hyperpigmentation, and texture correction.
§ 05 SkinPen Microneedling
SkinPen ELITE is the only FDA-cleared microneedling device in the U.S. We offer five protocol depths — from the base session to advanced PDGF+ growth-factor and scalp-restoration tracks. Buy 2, get the 3rd session free on any tier.
| SkinPen ELITE MicroneedlingFDA-cleared base session, no serum add-on | $395 |

| Scalp Restoration UltimateFull PDGF+ scalp protocol | $775 |
§ 06 Skinvive Skin Boosters
Skinvive by Juvederm is the only FDA-approved injectable HA skin booster in the U.S. Unlike traditional fillers (which add volume), Skinvive deposits hyaluronic acid microdroplets in the dermis to improve skin quality from the inside — smoother texture, hydrated glow, less crepiness.
Best for: Florida-skin dehydration, post-weight-loss crepiness, fine lines without volume loss, neck and chest texture.
Most patients see hydration benefit at 2–4 weeks; full effect at 6 weeks. Lasts 4–6 months. Maintenance: every 4–6 months for sustained skin quality.
§ 07 Prescription Skincare
Custom-compounded topicals for aging, melasma, and acne — plus topical sirolimus — from a licensed 503A pharmacy, from $79 with the telehealth Rx visit and home shipping included. The full programs, transparent pricing, and every formula live on the dedicated page.

§ 13 Frequently Asked
We treat a wide range of skin concerns including acne (hormonal, cystic, and inflammatory), aging and fine lines, hyperpigmentation and melasma, sun damage, rough texture and acne scarring, rosacea, dull and dehydrated skin, and enlarged pores. Every treatment begins with a thorough skin assessment to identify the root cause and create a personalized plan. Whether you need professional treatments, prescription skincare, or a combination of both, we develop a protocol tailored to your specific skin type and goals.
A dermatologist is a physician who diagnoses and treats medical skin conditions like skin cancer, eczema, and psoriasis. A med spa (medical spa) focuses on cosmetic and aesthetic skin treatments — things like chemical peels, microneedling, injectable skin boosters, and prescription skincare. At Reviv Beauty, all treatments are performed or supervised by Kristen-Anne Thomas, FNP-BC, a board-certified nurse practitioner with extensive training in aesthetic medicine. We can prescribe tretinoin, Winlevi, and other Rx skincare without a separate dermatology visit. For medical conditions like skin cancer, we will refer you to a board-certified dermatologist.
Yes. Kristen-Anne Thomas, FNP-BC prescribes tretinoin, Winlevi, hydroquinone, and custom-compounded formulas through a licensed 503A pharmacy — from $79, with the telehealth Rx visit and home shipping included. See every program and price on our Prescription Skincare page.
Winlevi (clascoterone) is the first FDA-approved topical androgen-receptor inhibitor for acne — ideal for hormonal breakouts along the jawline, chin, and cheeks. It’s a $99 Rx visit and the medication fills at your pharmacy. Full details on our Prescription Skincare page.
It depends on your skin concern and tolerance. SkinMedica Illuminize Peel ($150) is our gentlest option — ideal for first-timers, sensitive skin, and maintaining glow between deeper peels. Vitalize Peel ($200) is a medium-depth peel that targets discoloration, fine lines, and texture. Rejuvenize Peel ($250) is our deepest SkinMedica peel for stubborn damage, scarring, and advanced aging. PRX-T33 treatments offer bio-revitalization without peeling. Kristen will recommend the right peel based on your skin type, concerns, and downtime tolerance during your free consultation.
SkinPen ELITE is an FDA-cleared microneedling device that creates thousands of controlled micro-channels in the skin, triggering your body's natural wound-healing response. This stimulates new collagen and elastin production, improving texture, scars, pores, and fine lines. At Reviv Beauty, we enhance microneedling with VAMP by Prollenium (growth factor serum) and PDGF+ (platelet-derived growth factors) for superior results. A typical treatment takes 30-45 minutes, and most patients see visible improvement after 3-4 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Learn more about microneedling.
Skinvive by Juvederm is a hyaluronic acid skin booster — not a traditional filler. While fillers add volume to specific areas (lips, cheeks, jawline), Skinvive is injected as micro-droplets across the skin's surface to improve hydration, smoothness, and glow from within. It does not change your facial shape or add volume. Results look like healthy, hydrated skin and last approximately 6-9 months. At Reviv Beauty, we offer Skinvive ($365/syringe) for face, under-eyes, hands, neck, and chest. Explore our Skinvive treatments.
Pricing depends on the treatment. Chemical peels run $150 (Illuminize) to $300 (Rejuvenize). SkinPen ELITE microneedling starts at $395 per session. Skinvive skin boosters are $365 per syringe. Prescription skincare formulas start at $79 with shipping included. We offer Cherry financing with instant approval and no hard credit check, plus Alle rewards on eligible treatments. See our full Price Guide.
Frequency depends on the treatment and your goals. Chemical peels: every 4-6 weeks for a series of 3-6, then maintenance every 2-3 months. Microneedling: every 4-6 weeks for 3-4 sessions, then 2-3 times per year for maintenance. Skinvive: every 6-9 months. Prescription skincare is daily and ongoing. Kristen will create a treatment schedule during your consultation that balances results with your budget and lifestyle.
Yes — prescription skincare is telehealth-friendly, and the Rx visit is included with compounded programs. Kristen assesses your skin by video and your formulas ship to your door. Start on the Prescription Skincare page.
Our top recommendations depend on your concern. For anti-aging: TNS Advanced+ Serum (growth factors + peptides) and HA5 Rejuvenating Hydrator (hyaluronic acid). For dark spots: Even & Correct Advanced Brightening Treatment. For acne-prone skin: Blemish + Age Defense. For post-treatment recovery: Dermal Repair Cream. All SkinMedica products are available through our online shop at 10% off MSRP with free shipping. Earn Alle points on every purchase.
