Questions I get every day
From years of patient consultations + 127M+ YouTube views answering skincare questions.
"Is retinol safe for melanin-rich skin?"
Yes — when introduced correctly. The Masterpiece system uses 0.5% encapsulated retinol (Age Reversal Cream), which releases gradually to minimize irritation. We pair it with the Renewal Repair Cream's ceramides and urea so the barrier stays intact. Start every other night for the first 2 weeks, then nightly. This is the same protocol I use for my Beverly Hills patients with skin types IV–VI.
"Why subscribe vs. buy individually?"
The four products are designed to be used together — the cleanser preps for the serum, the serum sets up the retinol's tolerance, the moisturizer prevents barrier breakdown. Subscribing locks in the bundle for $199 — that's $195 less than buying the same four individually. And consistency is the whole game with skincare; subscription removes the friction of remembering to reorder before you run out.
"How long until I see results?"
Realistically: 2 weeks for clearer texture and better-feeling skin from the cleanser + Antioxidant Defense Serum. 4–6 weeks for visible cell turnover from the retinol. 8–12 weeks for the firming and tone changes most people associate with "results." If you don't see any difference by day 30, email contact@artisaskincare.com — that's what the 30-day guarantee is for.
"Can I use this alongside my prescription skincare?"
Yes, but don't double up. If you're on a prescription retinoid, skip the Age Reversal Cream and keep the other three. The cleanser, antioxidant serum, and moisturizer become the supporting routine that lets your tret work better with less irritation.
"What if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?"
Skip the Age Reversal Cream (it contains retinoids, which are contraindicated in pregnancy). The other three products — Radiance Cleanser, Antioxidant Defense Serum, Renewal Repair Cream — are pregnancy-safe. You can subscribe to just those three by reaching out to contact@artisaskincare.com and we'll set up a custom routine.
"How does this compare to SkinCeuticals or Skin Better Science?"
The actives are comparable — clinical retinol, dual-form Vitamin C, ceramides, peptides. The difference: formulated specifically for melanin-rich skin (where most prestige brands miss). And the subscription bundle at $199 is roughly 50% less than the equivalent four products from those brands. Read our full breakdown in the "Compare" section above.
"I'm post-facelift. Is this safe?"
Yes — many of my Beverly Hills patients start this exact routine 4–6 weeks post-op. The Radiance Cleanser is gentle enough for fresh scars. The Antioxidant Defense Serum supports collagen formation during healing. Hold the Age Reversal Cream (retinol) until 8 weeks post-op or as cleared by your surgeon.
"What if it doesn't work for my skin?"
30-day money-back guarantee, full stop. Email contact@artisaskincare.com with your order number, how long you used it, and a one-line note about what didn't work — we'll refund the cost of the product. No "you have to return product unused" gotcha.
"Can I skip or cancel my subscription?"
Yes — anytime, no penalties. Manage everything from your account dashboard. Skip a shipment, delay it, swap a product, or cancel with one click.
"I've never used retinol. Is this safe for me?"
Yes. Start 2–3 nights per week and build gradually. The Renewal Repair Cream is included specifically to cushion your skin. Most customers are comfortable with nightly use by week six.
"What happens right after I order?"
You'll receive a welcome email with Dr. Truesdale's AM/PM routine guide, a 30/60/90-day expectations guide, and access to his getting-started video.
"How long does one order last?"
Approximately 2 months with consistent daily use — which is why every 2 months is the default subscription cadence.
"Do you offer wholesale pricing for professionals?"
Yes. Plastic surgeons, med-spas, estheticians, and spas can apply for 39.8–44.8% retail margins. Apply for a wholesale account →
