About

Northern Skin is a corrective skincare business in Maple Grove, run by its owner Josephine, an aesthetician. The business was created after she became an aesthetician and operates from suite 141 inside Phenix Salons. Its focus is acne, graceful aging and pigmentation.

Rather than offering single treatments, the business builds customized home care regimens alongside multi-visit treatment plans. It states that most results come from the home care products, roughly 80%, with treatments accounting for about 20%. It also says it provides continuing education and training to its work.

A new client begins with a consultation, which must come before other services. In-person consultations include a VISIA facial skin analysis, which scores the skin across eight categories and estimates a skin age. Clients who live farther away can book a virtual consultation by FaceTime or Zoom; that price includes one year of guidance, while products are purchased separately. Services are by appointment only.

Signature offerings include Acne Bootcamp, a program that pairs home care with treatments every two to four weeks using enzymes or peels, extractions and LED light. Glacial fx is a cryo-based treatment that uses controlled cooling to brighten and stimulate the skin. SkinPen Elite microneedling creates tiny punctures to stimulate collagen and is typically done as a series of four to six sessions. The business says there is no cure for acne and that it is managed through a regimen, lifestyle habits and consistency. It describes Celluma LED as an award-winning device developed with NASA technology, and VISIA as the gold standard in facial skin analysis.

Builds customized home care regimens and multi-visit treatment plans, starting from a consultation, and treats acne as something managed over time rather than cured.
