Hilda Demirjian What is your specialty? What first inspired your interest in health and skin care? Skin education is my passion and I travel the world presenting at conferences and My passion for skin began in my native events. I always say, “Laser is my business, country, Persia, where skin care and skin is my passion.” I specialize in combinwellness is still considered highly valuable ing the science of aesthetic laser with the and important. As a young girl in Persia— ancient world of skin care. I use a unique considered by some to be the “Mecca” of laser technique which provides nearly skin care—I grew up visiting hammams painless treatments for laser hair removal, (steam rooms) and spas on a weekly basis and collagen and skin rejuvenation. I work

with many types of skin and can help people with rosacea, acne, sun damage, scars, stretch marks and many more conditions, including illnesses like cancer.

What were some of your early influences?

I was particularly affected by my grandmother’s experience when she was undergoing chemotherapy for cancer. I remember touching her skin and feeling how papery and thin it had become because of the treatment. My flagship collagen product developed with green apple stem cells was something I created in part because I wanted to help people recovering from cancer. The collagen product helps undo some of the damage caused by the medicine.

What is different about your proprietary skin care line?

I formulated my own premium quality skin care product line through many years of scientific research with 100 percent botanical sources, including fruit stem cells. I’m particularly proud of Collagen-Elastin Gel with Apple Stem Cells; it is an innovative formula derived from botanical sources that actively stimulates the growth of the protein collagen in the epidermis.

By replacing the lost collagen, the product strengthens the skin and reduces the appearance of scars, acne, fine lines, wrinkles and stretch marks. Users will quickly see substantial improvements in the look and the feel of their skin, as well as an elimination of dullness after consistently applying the gel.

Working at a cellular level, Collagen-Elastin Gel heals and rejuvenates pre/ post-surgical scars by providing enough protein levels so that the skin does not suffer after surgery. The gel has also proven effective at healing skin damage following cancer treatments, including mastectomies.

What should a client expect from working with you?

Confidentiality and compassion are my hallmarks. My work is more than a business. I am devoted to my clients and work with them to restore hope, confidence and self-esteem. I work with many individuals recovering from serious illness, including cancer, and devote time and support to charitable organizations such as the American Cancer Society, Ekal Vidyalaya Foundation, YMCA, Gilda’s Club and White Plains Hospital.

Do you have any advice for the skin care issues we may be facing due to COVID-19?

It is important to protect your skin during COVID, especially because mask wearing can interfere with the skin's ability to access oxygen. Invest in your skin and you'll be thrilled, mask or no mask!
