European Facial - 60 Minutes
Once your skin has been examined by our Esthetician, a customized deep cleansing with hot towels is used to prepare the skin for exfoliation. Exfoliation removes all debris and dead skin cells. If necessary, extractions are done at this time to open clogged pores. The face, neck, decollette and arms are then gently massaged to stimulate and tone the muscles. Finally, a mask is applied, prescribed specifically for your type of skin, to hydrate and nourish the skin. This experience will leave you completely relaxed, and your skin will look and feel completely refreshed.

Deep Pore Cleansing Facial - 60 Minutes
This treatment is specifically designed for oily skin. Once your skin has been examined, our Esthetician will apply a purifying and cooling blend of natural oil-absorbing clays containing astringent plant extracts to cleanse the skin in preparation for exfoliation and extractions. A specialty mask is custom blended to rehydrate and nourish the skin. This treatment is an excellent way to relax while 'restoring the skin to it's optimum condition.

Repechage Facial - 60 Minutes
A unique anti-aging treatment designed to rehydrate, remineralize and rebalance the skin. After your skin has been cleansed, toned, and moisturized, a four layer mask is applied to exfoliate, rehydrate and nourish the skin. The mask is designed to firm up the facial contour and eliminate tiny lines, leaving the skin with a radiant tone for days. The ultimate facial for the individual that likes to go one step further.

Deluxe Paraffin Facial - 60 Minutes
Our Esthetician will examine and deep cleanse your skin using a combination of custom blended products and hot towels. This step prepares your skin for exfoliation, the process of removing all debris and dead skin cells. If needed, extractions will be performed to open clogged pores. Your face, neck, decollette and arms are then gently massaged to stimulate muscle toning. Paraffin wax is carefully painted onto the facial area. This hydrating treatment is designed to seal in the moisture, resurface and smooth the skin, and refine fine lines. This facial treatment is an instant 'fix' for dehydrated skin, and a must for dry, over-stressed skin.

Mini Facial - 30 Minutes
Your skin will be examined and then thoroughly cleansed to remove dead skin cells and surface debris. Your skin will be toned and remoisturized, smoothing the skin and refining fine lines. A great way to cleanse, tone and moisturize between European facials, or when time is a consideration.

Back Facial - 1 Hour
The skin on your back will be carefully examined, followed by a custom cleansing using hot towels and specially selected products to prepare for exfoliation. If necessary, extractions will be done to relieve clogged pores. A relaxing back massage tones the muscles and prepares the skin for rehydration. This treatment combines the benefits of rehydration with the luxury of a back massage.

Eye Contouring Treatment - 40 Minutes
The eye area is examined and thoroughly cleansed. A thin layer of Bio-Peel is applied to the area including the upper and lower lids, cheekbones and the temples. Hot towels are used to soothe and activate the peel mask. The eye area is then gently massaged using a combination of pressure points, Iymphatic and muscle lifting techniques. A contour mask is applied for 10 minutes. Once removed, the eye area is noticeably firmer, smoother and hydrated. This a great instant 'fix'. This treatment can also be purchased in a series of 6 for longer lasting results and greater savings.

Dermalogica Skin Exfoliating System - 60 Minutes
In preparation for this aggressive treatment, our Esthetician will examine and evaluate your skin condition. The treatment process will be explained and you will be instructed how to use the Skin Renewal Booster at home for one week prior to your initial treatment. Your initial treatment starts with a thorough cleansing using a combination of Dermalogica Essential Cleanser and hot towels. Our alpha-hydroxy acid and enzyme complex foliant is applied. After exfoliation, a mask is applied to gently soothe and rehydrate the treated area. This treatment is excellent for smoothing, refining and restoring mature skin to a more youthful appearance. Teens and clients with enlarged pores or acne scarring will also notice dramatic results with this treatment series.

Glycolic Acid Peel - 60 Minutes
Candidates for this series of 6 treatments will be given a three part home-care kit to be used for one month prior to the start of the treatment process. After a thorough examination, our Esthetician will fully explain the treatment process and the proper use of the home-care kit to prepare and acclimate your skin for the Glycolic Acid Peel. The treatment process begins with a re-examination, thorough cleansing of the treatment area, and application of the treatment mask. After an appropriate time, the mask is removed, the area is cleansed again and rehydrated. This incredible treatment can be used on the face, hands, arms, and any area that is dry, stressed, or contains dark spots. One of our most aggressive treatments for skin renewal and maintenance.

Solar Bronzing - 45 Minutes
This is an excellent treatment for the entire body. Our Esthetician will apply the Dermalogica Body Wash and the Body Smoothing Scrub to remove dead skin cells to refine and prepare the skin for the Dermalogica safe sunless bronzing lotion. The cream is applied evenly over the entire body. This process can be used to even out an existing tan, or to give the appearance of returning from a deep Caribbean vacation. This treatment also includes your personal bottle of self-tan to help you maintain the healthy appearance. A great way to fight off the February grey weather blahs.

Herbal Body Wrap - 90 Minutes
An Herbal Body Wrap is a special treatment process that results in dramatic inch reduction and skin toning to the entire body. Products containing aloe and natural herbs, when applied to the skin, penetrate to detoxify and breakdown fat deposits and cellulite. This process also tones the skin and refines stretch marks. Results will vary, but reductions of 4 to 15 inches throughout the body are usual.
