We could rent a few platform devices and single-treatment systems when we needed it during the month. It was a routine I got very comfortable with, but it was a lot different navigating that model when I started looking for myself. I gravitated to the Aerolase Neo Elite because no other single system could treat all the different conditions I was used to treating.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cI was so used to platform-based devices, but when I started looking into the cost, maintenance, and actual overhead, it would be to own one, I was relatively afraid. But, I was comfortable with the devices. I trained on them, and I knew how to get results with them. It was a sticking point for me that I wouldn\u2019t call complacency, but in a manner, it\u2019s getting in your way because you become a little oblivious of better options and better opportunities. It wasn\u2019t until I was introduced to Aerolase at an advanced training course that I saw how much of the older devices I was accustomed to.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cI still had to see the results. Yes, there are pictures to refer to, but, to me, seeing is believing. Acne was the first thing that drew me to the Neo Elite. In the demonstration, I brought my son, who was starting to have issues with acne. He loved it, and I can\u2019t say how lucky he was in the timing of me demoing the device. That was great, but what I needed to see results for was facial rejuvenation. I was skeptical, I was used to seeing immediate results with q-switched rejuvenation. Honestly, I wasn\u2019t sure I saw the same results immediately after the treatment like I was used to. It wasn\u2019t until all these people I had previously treated with the other device called me up the next day that I had that \u2018aha\u2019 moment when they all said they looked into the mirror that morning and said they saw such a dramatic difference. I knew then it wasn\u2019t just the immediate effect we were getting, but the results were getting better by the day and then on. It\u2019s like a shrink wrap effect for your pores. I was blown away. At that moment I wasn\u2019t just confident I\u2019d deliver results my clientele was used to. I knew I\u2019d do even better for them.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0bd1713 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0bd1713\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">There have been better times to open a business<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e362b67 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e362b67\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\u201cOpening a new business with a brand-new device I didn\u2019t have years of training on was intimidating enough. In May of 2020? It was a totally new world, but I had my medical director, a relatively loyal patient following, and it just felt like a \u2018now or never\u2019 time to do it. And so I did. Fortunately, the majority of what I needed to be aligned went extremely well for my business. I started slowly with a small client base and relying on Aerolase to support me with any clinical or administrative support I needed. The company support has been incredible from my local manager, Debra, to their trainers, and even corporate staff. They\u2019ve been here for me.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cMy clients have been my blessing. I\u2019ve had so many referrals &#8211; it\u2019s been ridiculous. And, all by word of mouth. It was all about the results I was giving them with my laser. I\u2019ve had a loyal following but could not have predicted the impact a new laser would have on them, influencing my growth. In August, my new office manager pulled me aside and said, \u2018You\u2019d better think about getting an assistant soon because you\u2019re not going to be able to handle this soon. You\u2019re going to be working 12-hour days, seven days a week.\u2019 And, honestly, I could do it but to be able to have some R&amp;R will be nice!<\/p><p>\u201cStill, it\u2019s a thrill to know my business is thriving. Money isn\u2019t my ultimate motivation in doing what I do. It&#8217;s knowing I can maintain my business and grow month over month because the laser is incredibly comforting. Opening in May with a single rented room, I was able to make upwards of $40,000. In July, I\u2019m breaking $60,000. The money is a big bonus, but being able to maintain a business of giving my clients results they feel empowered by is what I love.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-44006cb elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"44006cb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Personal passions run true<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8af0a6c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8af0a6c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\u201cThe entire reason I am in this business is helping people. My own experience with severe acne in my late teens drove me into a passion for skincare, which turned into a passion for facial rejuvenation and lasers. At that time, I wasn\u2019t able to afford a dermatologist for my acne. I went to a skincare workshop and was fortunate to learn about certain products to clear my skin. That journey is why acne is such an important part of what I do and want to accomplish with the Neo Elite. I know the feeling of trying to cover it up and feel your self-esteem drop because of it. I don\u2019t want anyone to feel that way when I know there\u2019s help. I\u2019d love to open an acne clinic for underprivileged people in the future.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cPlus, I love trying new things with the laser. In the spirit of helping people, one of my former co-workers had chronic psoriasis on her wrist, right where she would wear a watch. I knew the Neo Elite could treat psoriasis so I asked to treat her. I said, \u2018I\u2019m not going to charge you, I just want the photos of your results.\u2019 She sent me a picture the next day, and it had improved so much. The day after that, the lesion was gone. You can imagine how special it makes me feel to deliver those types of results.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cI\u2019m also extremely excited about being able to treat skin of color. There is a large Latin and Dominican population I work with \u2013 they are\u00a0<em>thrilled<\/em>, and I\u2019m just getting started.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ren\u00e9 Shewalter, LE and Owner of AAC by Ren\u00e9 in Reading, PA, has been in the skincare industry for more than two decades working alongside plastic surgeons for\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":77776,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[20,21,17,19],"class_list":["post-20665","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-customer-stories","tag-acne","tag-anti-aging","tag-medical-spa","tag-neo-elite"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.7 (Yoast SEO v22.8) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Case Study with Ren\u00e9 Shewalter &#8226;
