and mineral sunscreen

Medical-grade skincare, matched to your skin

Good skin starts with what you do every day. At Sarah Hitchcox Aesthetics we recommend medical-grade skincare, and the right products depend on your skin type, your goals and how you spend your time outdoors. Instead of guessing from a shelf, come in for a free skin consultation at our Bearden or Farragut office.

Sunscreen comes first

Every regimen we build starts with sunscreen. Years of sun show up as brown spots, uneven texture and fine lines that arrive earlier than they had to, and daily sunscreen is the simplest way to prevent them. We recommend a broad spectrum mineral sunscreen with zinc oxide, SPF 30 or higher, and water resistance for 80 minutes if you sweat or spend long stretches outside. Sarah wears sunbetter TONE SMART SPF 75 and carries the sunbetter SHEER SPF 56 stick on long runs.

If you run or train outdoors, put sunscreen on 15 minutes before you leave and carry a mineral stick for your ears, nose, cheekbones, the back of your neck and the tops of your shoulders. A hat with a brim and good sunglasses cut down on how much you need to reapply.

What to expect at your consultation

We look at your skin, ask about your current routine and what you would like to change, and recommend a regimen that fits your skin and your schedule. If sun damage is already showing, we will talk through treatments such as skin revitalization, pigmented lesion reduction and microneedling. You can pick up any products we recommend at the office.

Skincare Frequently Asked Questions

Is the skin consultation free?

Yes. Skin consultations are free at both of our offices, in Bearden and Farragut, and there is no obligation to buy anything.

What sunscreen do you recommend?

For most people we recommend a broad spectrum mineral sunscreen with zinc oxide, SPF 30 or higher, labeled water resistant for 80 minutes. At your consultation we help you choose a texture and tint you will actually wear every day.

What sunscreen is best for running and outdoor training?

A water resistant mineral sunscreen put on 15 minutes before you head out, plus a mineral stick you can carry for quick reapplication. Mineral formulas are less likely to run into your eyes and sting when you sweat.

Can I buy the products online?

We recommend skincare in person so we can match it to your skin. After your consultation, you can pick up the products we recommend at either office.
