Skin Science Signature European Facial
(60-75 min.)
Custom tailored to address your skin’s specific needs after an initial consultation with your esthetician.  You will experience true pampering in this 60 minutes session, which includes skin analysis, deep cleansing, gentle exfoliation,  perform manual extractions (if necessary), and a relaxing facial and neck massage.  A hydrator and a sun protector follow your customized masque.  Your esthetician will instruct you on proper skin care and provide you with a personalized home maintenance program.

Skin Science Signature European –Seaweed Facial (60 min.)
Guaranteed visible and dramatic results, on the spot. You will be ecstatic with the outcome.

  • Seaweed filtrate is a concentrate of freshly harvested seaweed.  It softens lines, adds moisture and helps rebalance and tone skin tissues.
  • Facial massage is given with a creamy hydrating formula.  Lasting benefits include improved circulation to blood vessels.
  • Seaweed mask feels cool as it is stroked into face and throat, adding moisture, eliminating toxins and nourishing skin as it soothes.
  • The mineral mask is final, improving skin tone and creating more even skin color.  It creates its own gentle warmth to activate the properties of the seaweed mask beneath it.

The results are impressive:  younger-looking skin with visibly renewed moisture and afterglow that lasts.  Just touch your skin, and feel the difference.

Acne / Glycolic Facial Treatment (45 min.)
We recommend that your acne treatments be preceded by a consultation with the esthetician and at least two weeks use of glycolic acid-based homecare products.  Because of the strength of glycolic peels, clients must agree to use full spectrum sun block with an SPF of 15 or higher every day.  Users of Retin-A or other prescribed skin medications must obtain consent from their doctor before receiving glycolic treatments.  For optimal results, a series 6 glycolic treatments is recommended to help minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and to help reduce the appearance of hyper-pigmentation.  A series of glycolic facials can be quite effective in helping to improve oily and acne-prone skin.

The full 45 minutes glycolic facial includes deep cleansing followed by application of the glycolic acid. Perform manual extractions.  A cooling and soothing gel masque is next and the treatment concludes with an appropriate moisturizer and application of a sunscreen with SPF 30.
