Carly Ballenger

Carly Ballenger is a Licensed Esthetician, Integrative Health Coach, and the founder of Skinspired Acne Clinic in Westerville, Ohio. She grew up in New Albany, Ohio, where she still resides with her husband and two children, Beau and Lacey. She has been a Licensed Esthetician for 10 years. Her lifelong struggle with acne was the catalyst for opening Skinspired Acne Clinic. After many failed attempts on harsh prescription medications from dermatologists, she decided to take her acne into her own hands and discovered Face Reality Skincare, diving deep into treating acne through a holistic approach. Before opening Skinspired, she worked at day spas and a dermatology practice where she also assisted in skin cancer surgeries. She then rented space in a MedSpa as a solo esthetician before growing the business. She and her team have received ongoing training to treat acne and other skin conditions with a holistic approach, providing results-driven skincare treatments and home protocols along with information on proper food, supplements, ingredients, and lifestyle habits for healthy skin. Her practice was featured on NBC4 News and profiled in The Beauty Boost. She has a 5.0 rating on Vagaro with 19 reviews and Skinspired has a 4.9 star rating on Birdeye with 94 reviews, 4,552 Facebook likes, and 116 check-ins. Clients describe her as phenomenal, caring, talented, and truly committed. One client who had been to dermatologist after dermatologist said Carly treated the root cause and the texture and complexion of their skin drastically changed. Her team includes clinic manager and esthetician Rachel Leavitt (20 years customer service), Payton Wasserbeck (licensed advanced cosmetology instructor), and Demi Murnane. Services include customized acne treatments, anti-aging facials, dermaplaning, chemical peels, microneedling, infrared sauna, Face Reality Skincare protocols, holistic skincare consultations, and customized home care plans. The clinic also hosts a podcast called From the Skinside Out.
