At the Skin Games 2017, the esthetic industry dressed up in their finest and gathered together to find out who led the industry in acne, compassion, holistic care, medical spa, hyperpigmentation and more. This year, I was honored to participate in the games as a judge (in the hyperpigmentation and age management categories), and was impressed by the knowledge and hard work put forth by finalists.
At the live show on April 8, 2017, the winners were crowned, as listed below.
