What My Patients Say

“I have loved FoRM’s Aesthetic Membership! With consistent treatments and home care, my skin is smoother, much more even skin tone (fewer dark spots and redness), firmer, and glows. It just looks so much healthier! Iโ€™m so happy with the results!”

โ€“Aesthetic Membership

“As a self-declared sun-worshiper it is fair to say I had significant sun damage and my face just looked older than my years. I started working with Dr. Herman and Oโ€™Brien Cox and the results have been amazing! At a party I was asked if I changed my hair because I looked 10 years younger but I can assure you it was not my hair. These two talented professionals will change your life โ€ฆor at least your face. I promise you, you wonโ€™t regret the investment. I am beyond thrilled.”

โ€“Age Defy Member

“I have loved participating in the Skin Rehab Program! I received 3 treatments per month customized to meet my skin care needs and goals. ย With consistent treatments and home care, my skin is smoother, much more even skin tone (fewer dark spots and redness), firmer, and glows. ย It just looks so much healthier! ย Iโ€™m so happy with the results!”

โ€“Look Better Member

Dr Kai Herman and her staff are amazing!ย  I have been under Dr Herman’s naturopathic care for years. I fully trust Dr Herman with my medical needs and when I heard she was doing PRP facials, I knew I could also trust her with my face/skin care needs. The procedure itself was seamless and done in a comfortable, relaxed setting.ย  The downtime was minimal.ย  The results were impressive.ย  I noticed tighter, firmer skin and an improved complexion.ย  This will definitely be part of my anti-aging skin care routine!

โ€“PRP Skin Rejuvenation Patient

“Dr. Herman’s personable and professional demeanor along with her thorough pre and post- treatment information made my laser experience great! She was knowledgable with my specific skin type and gave me a great treatment that had lasting affects beyond what I expected.”

โ€“Skin Care Patient

“Dr. Herman is amazing! I completed 2 laser resurfacing treatments and am loving the results. Many friends and family members have commented on how great my skin looks! Thanks, Dr. Herman!”

โ€“Aesthetic Laser Client

“Dr. Herman is always professional and caring. She has helped me to get my life back in balance and takes the time to really get to know me and understands my individual needs.”

โ€“Functional Medicine Patient

“A little over a year ago I noticed thinning and balding areas on my scalp. I was devastated. My hair is my signature and a huge part of my identity. Then I learned about Dr. Herman and that PRP could be used to treat my thinning hair. I’d had it for my knee so I thought, why not!? I’m so glad I did!ย  My hair is fuller, the thinning areas filled in and my hairline was restored.ย  Dr. Herman is knowledgeable, gentle, and great to work with.ย  I consider my case a complete success! No only that, after years of trying to grow out my hair, it is finally super long. I feel gorgeous and I attribute that to Dr. Herman and PRP.

โ€“Hair (and knee) PRP Patient

“I just love Dr. Herman and her staff. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. I really like how caring Dr. Herman is. She takes the time to truly understand my concerns and she includes me in the decision of how to best achieve the healthiest me.”

โ€“Functional Medicine Patient

“Dr. Herman is attentive, smart, and curious – and always sends me away feeling better, with good tips on general well-being, physical and internal health, and self-care. I’m confident I have the support and care I need, and a trusted guide to help find the right answers for myself and my lifestyle. I highly recommend this clinic and Dr. Herman!”

โ€“Functional Medicine Patient

“Dr. Herman thoughtfully and thoroughly addressed all of my concerns and recommended testing and treatments my PCP has never mentioned. I look forward to continuing my care with her.”

โ€“Functional Medicine Patient

“Dr. Herman is amazing! I completed 2 laser resurfacing treatments and am loving the results. Many friends and family members have commented on how great my skin looks! Thanks, Dr. Herman!”

Summerโ€™s over. Laser season is here. ๐Ÿ‚โ„๏ธ Less sun Summerโ€™s over. Laser season is here. ๐Ÿ‚โ„๏ธ

Less sun = more opportunities to tackle skin problems. 
Fall & winter give you 6โ€“9 prime months to fade spots, calm redness + finally ditch the razor. Start now, show up ready by Spring. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

How it works ๐Ÿ’ก๏ฟฝ
Laser uses light to target pigment: brown spots, redness, broken blood vessels, and the melanin in your hair. The light breaks that pigment up. Over the following weeks, spots fade & hair sheds.

The real win? A simpler, lower-maintenance routine.๏ฟฝ
โœ”๏ธ Less coverup + foundation๏ฟฝ
โœ”๏ธ Fewer breakouts + less skin irritation๏ฟฝ
โœ”๏ธ Less shaving + razor burn
