About

Located in St. Louis Park, The Skin Standard is a skin clinic whose treatment work covers acne and congested skin, rosacea and inflammation, pigmentation and sun damage, aging and collagen support, and barrier repair and skin resilience. Jessica Kueppers and Amanda Varley, who are both Licensed Advanced Practice Estheticians, are the two people who established the clinic.

A visit usually begins with a consultation. Local clients in St. Louis Park and Minneapolis can book an in-clinic consultation that includes VISIA Skin Analysis. Clients outside the area can book a virtual consultation, which results in a customized at-home or product-focused skin plan.

The clinic's signature offerings include the Face Reality Acne Solutions program, which combines in-clinic visits, customized home care and expert coaching. Visits run 45 to 60 minutes, and the business says progress is typically seen within three to four months. Other options include Aerolase laser treatments with no downtime for several concerns, DMK Enzyme Therapy and Body Enzyme Treatments, a StemZyme DMK stem cell treatment, SkinPen microneedling, Glacial Rx facials, NeurotriS Microcurrent facial toning, chemical peels and dermaplaning.

The clinic sells professional home care products for use between visits, including DMK home care. It also has an online Shop, and a Skin Insider email newsletter covers skin education, treatment information, product recommendations and first access to news. Financing and payment plans are available through Cherry, subject to eligibility. The clinic is open Monday through Thursday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and is closed on weekends.

Works from cellular health, correcting root causes and favoring consistency over intensity, with client education built into each plan. Takes a whole-body view that considers hormones, gut health, stress and lifestyle alongside the skin.
