Sample input

Goal: Reduce congestion and rough texture before an event in eight weeks, with no visible peeling.
Observations: Surface dryness around the mouth, closed comedones on the forehead, and mild cheek redness. Client reports intermittent stinging.
History and flags: Prescription topical started six weeks ago, facial waxing four days ago, adhesive allergy, and no confirmed guidance about pausing the topical.
Routine: Foaming cleanser twice daily, leave-on exfoliant most nights, moisturizer, inconsistent sunscreen. Prior peel caused five days of redness.
Constraints: $140 today, about $90 monthly, minimal downtime.
Scope: Customized facial, superficial enzyme service, hydration-focused service, and LED. Stronger exfoliation requires protocol review and approval.
