The KrX Melapro Cold Peel introduces a new standard in treating stubborn pigmentation—delivering transformative results without the downtime of traditional peels. Designed exclusively for professional use, this oil-based, non-keratolytic formula is exceptionally well-tolerated, making it an ideal choice for sensitive skin and higher Fitzpatrick types prone to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

What sets this peel apart is its unique time-based mechanism. Unlike conventional peels that depend on surface exfoliation or low pH for intensity, the Melapro Cold Peel works at the melanocyte level to directly regulate pigment formation. At its core is 10% 4-Butylresorcinol (Rucinol), a next-generation tyrosinase inhibitor clinically shown to outperform hydroquinone in reducing melasma and pigmentation—safely and effectively.

Antioxidants like Glutathione and botanical extracts further support brightening and barrier health, ensuring the treatment is both corrective and restorative.

16 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE HAS TAUGHT ME SOMETHING…
Skincare should never feel transactional. It should feel transformational.
For 16 years, I’ve had the privilege of working with women and their skin through different stages of life. And one thing I’ve learned is that beautiful skin isn’t created by simply booking a facial every few weeks.
It’s created through knowledge, consistency, personalized treatments, proper homecare, lifestyle, and a plan that evolves with YOU.
That’s why I don’t see myself as someone who simply performs a treatment and sends you on your way.
I see myself as your Skin Therapist—and your partner in transformation.
I look at your skin, listen to your concerns, understand your goals, and create a personalized approach based on what yourskin actually needs.
Sometimes that means a professional treatment.
Sometimes it means changing your homecare.
Sometimes it means slowing down, repairing your skin barrier, and letting your skin recover.
And sometimes it means having an honest conversation about what will—and won't—actually make a difference.
My success isn’t measured by how many products or treatments I can sell you.
It’s measured by seeing your skin become healthier, stronger, more resilient, and more confident over time.
Because I don't want you to simply leave my studio with glowing skin for a day.
I want us to create skin you feel good about for years to come.
That’s the difference between transactional skincare and transformational skincare.
And after 16 years, I’m still passionate about helping women understand their skin and take ownership of their results.
Your skin. Your goals. Your transformation.

Something new has arrived at Esthetics by Riki… ✨

I’m always looking for treatments that make sense for real skin — not hype, filters or a one-size-fits-all approach.
So when I discovered CELLSTORY® by Beyond Miracles, I knew I wanted to learn more.
Think of it as “liquid microneedling” — without needles.
CELLSTORY® uses patented Microspear® technology, tiny naturally derived sponge particles that create temporary pathways in the skin while delivering a concentrated blend of skin-supporting ingredients.
The goal?
✨ Smoother-looking texture
✨ Brighter, more radiant skin
✨ Improved appearance of fine lines
✨ More even-looking tone
✨ Support for healthier-looking, renewed skin
✨ A beautiful, refreshed glow
And because I’m all about skin health first, I love that this isn't about trying to make you look like someone else. It’s about helping your own skin function and look its best.
CELLSTORY® is an active treatment — you may experience tingling, redness or sensitivity afterward as the skin goes through its renewal process. It is not a traditional facial, and proper post-care is an important part of the treatment.
I’ll be adding CELLSTORY® to my treatment menu soon, and I’m excited to experience it myself and begin offering it to my clients.
No filters. No needles. No pretending your skin needs to be 25 again.
Just innovative Korean skincare technology designed to help your skin look healthier, smoother and more radiant. 🤍

🚨 NEW ADVANCED SKIN TREATMENT COMING TO ESTHETICS BY RIKI! 🚨

I'm so excited to introduce Thesera G Spicule Regeneration Therapy! ✨

Thesera G is an advanced, non-invasive collagen induction therapy that is being compared to microneedling—but with a completely different approach.
So, what exactly are spicules?
Spicules are microscopic, needle-like structures naturally found in marine sponges. Think of them as tiny, natural micro-needles. During the treatment, they are gently worked into the skin, creating mechanical stimulation and supporting the skin's natural renewal process.
Unlike traditional microneedling, there is no device and no conventional needles. The microscopic spicules remain active in the skin for up to approximately 72 hours, continuing to stimulate the skin and support cellular turnover.
✨ Thesera G is designed to target:
•Acne & congestion
• Uneven texture
• Hyperpigmentation
• Fine lines & wrinkles
• Enlarged pores
• Acne scarring
• Dull, tired-looking skin
• Loss of firmness and dermal density

Think of it as advanced skin stimulation and renewal—without a laser or traditional microneedling device.
This exciting treatment offers a completely different approach to skin rejuvenation, and I cannot wait to bring it to my clients! 🤍

Hi everyone,
Summer may be winding down, but your skin is showing the receipts. ☀️
After months of New Mexico sun, heat, dry air, and travel, you may be noticing more pigmentation, dullness, rough texture, dehydration, or sensitivity.
Fall is the perfect time to shift from summer maintenance to correction.
But correction doesn't mean being aggressive. The best results come from preparing the skin, choosing the right treatment, and supporting it with the right homecare.
This is the season for getting serious about:
✨ Pigmentation & uneven tone
✨ Texture & dullness
✨ Dehydration & barrier support
✨ Restoring that healthy, radiant glow
And remember—your professional treatment is only part of the equation. What you do at home between appointments is what keeps the results going.
So instead of asking, “What treatment should I get?”
Let's ask:
“What does MY skin need right now?”
If your skin is showing signs of summer, it's time to make a plan.
Fall appointments are open. Let's get your skin back on track.

SKINCARE 101 — PART 1

Skin care Is a Journey, Not a Quick Fix

We live in a world of instant results. But when it comes to your skin, lasting change takes consistency, patience, and the right plan.
One facial can leave your skin looking brighter, smoother, and more hydrated—but it cannot undo years of sun exposure, dehydration, inflammation, pigmentation, or collagen loss overnight.
Think of professional skincare like working with a personal trainer. One workout feels good, but the transformation comes from showing up consistently and having a plan designed for your individual goals.
There’s also a difference between getting a treatment and following a personalized skincare plan.
A treatment addresses your skin today. A personalized plan looks at where your skin is now, where you want it to be, and what needs to happen consistently to get you there.
That may include professional treatments, the right homecare, seasonal adjustments, and ongoing education about what your skin actually needs—especially here in New Mexico’s dry, high-desert climate.
Your skin is constantly changing. Your skincare should, too.
The goal isn’t to chase the newest trend or book a facial whenever your skin starts acting up. It’s to create a partnership and a realistic strategy that helps your skin become healthier, stronger, and more resilient over time.

✨ Healthy skin isn’t a quick fix. It’s a journey—and the best results come from having a plan and sticking with it.

✨ A NEW CHAPTER FOR ESTHETICS BY RIKI ✨

After 16 years of helping clients achieve healthier, more radiant skin, I’ve learned that the greatest transformations don’t come from a single appointment.

They come from a plan.

They come from consistency.

They come from understanding your skin and having the right professional guidance every step of the way.

That’s why I’m shifting the way I offer skincare at Esthetics by Riki.

🌿 THE SKIN TRANSFORMATION PROGRAM 🌿

A 4-Month Customized Journey to Healthier, More Radiant Skin
Investment: $600

Moving forward, my
recommended approach for every client will be this complete 4-month transformation journey.

Your program includes:
✨ Customized professional treatments based on your skin’s needs
✨ A personalized homecare routine to support your results every day. THIS INCLUDES A FULL SET OF PROFESSIONAL GRADE SKINCARE PRODUCTS!
✨ Education so you understand your skin and how to care for it
✨ Ongoing guidance and adjustments throughout your journey

Your skin is constantly changing and it deserves more than a one-time appointment or a guess-and-check approach.

The Skin Transformation Program is designed to give you the consistency, support, and tools needed to achieve real, lasting improvement.

Individual treatments will still be available; however, they will be at a higher investment because true skin success comes from a complete plan — not just an occasional visit.

This is about creating a partnership between us: the professional treatments we do together and the daily care you provide at home.

Your treatment starts here…
but your transformation happens every day at home. ✨

Thank you for trusting me to be part of your skin journey. 💛

Timing Is Everything!!!

Especially When It Comes to Skin.
One of the reasons I invested in DiamondGlow years ago—and why I chose my new advanced microneedling infusion system—is because they both take advantage of the skin's most receptive moment.
💎 DiamondGlow
As the diamond tip exfoliates away dull, damaged skin, professional SkinMedica Pro-Infusion serums are delivered at the exact same time. There is no waiting. Freshly revealed skin immediately receives nourishing ingredients.
✨ Advanced Microneedling with Simultaneous Serum Infusion
Traditionally, microneedling is performed first, and stem cell serums are applied afterward. While that is still beneficial, your skin immediately begins its natural repair process.
With my new infusion technology, the stem cell serum is delivered while the microchannels are being created, allowing those powerful ingredients to be introduced during the treatment itself—when your skin is at its most receptive.
It's a smarter approach to treatment.
✔️ Enhanced serum delivery
✔️ No delay between treatment and infusion
✔️ Maximizes every pass of the device
✔️ More efficient use of advanced growth factor and stem cell technology
Different technologies. One philosophy:
Deliver the right ingredients at exactly the right moment.
That's why I invest in science-backed technology that helps you achieve healthier, stronger, more radiant skin.
