In Short – This urban oasis for busy professionals offers everything from Botox to quick facials. Open the door to the Skin Spa on the 12th floor of a very non-Zen office bilding and you will find a calming atmosphere helped by subtle, modern decor and fresh flowers. Despite the name, the Skin Spa offers the full range of day spa standards like massages and waxing. And all of their services employ cutting-edge cosmecuetical technology like the new Titan anti-aging treatment.

LOVED IT - GOING BACK!

by CherylNYC

LOVED it. I am so happy to know about The Skin Spa! I went in to get a microdermabrasion and a facial to get my face clean for my upcoming wedding. My esthetician customized the experience for me and gave me recommendations about caring for my skin in the future. she did a fantastic job. great pricing too (only $60 for a facial!). i picked up the menu of services and am excited to go back.

  • Pros: customized treatments, great prices, beautiful facility
  • Cons: none

I do NOT recommend this place for skin with Melanin!

by CrystyW

I am a light-skinned black women who had a professional peel 3 weeks ago and my skin not only has failed to look nice, it looks MUCH worse.

The days immediately following the peel I literally looked like a burn victim. I sucked it up, assuming that once it peeled it would be ok. Unfortunately I was wrong. Now exactly three weeks after the peel, I have discoloration on my forehead, cheeks, and especially around my mouth--around the lips, on the chin and along the laugh lines, which makes them appear to be deep wrinkles (I'm 25 years-old and wrinkle-free).

I told the staff member that was working on my face during the procedure that it was burning the area around my mouth and she said that was normal...

When I called to express my concern about the results 2 weeks later, I was again told that it was normal. No, "Come in and we'll take a look," no "sorry, give us a chance to correct the damage." And it's actually NOT normal to pay for a service to improve the appearance of your skin and for it to get worse...or damaged long term as I fear. Skin Spa's website says that they select a peel for each customer individually --skin with melanin is prone to pigmentation issues if esthetician's aren't careful so this claim is in large part what encouraged me to try this place out -- but this is clearly NOT true.

This was hands down the WORST results I've ever had from any facial procedure and unfortunately it seems that I'll be dealing with the results for some time.

DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE OF GOING TO THE SKIN SPA.

very professional, beautiful esthetician

by Macho Man

I've recently visited the skin spa for a treatment. I have to say that my esthetician was gorgeous and I fell in love with her. If I wasn't married with two kids I would probably want to marry her. (TMI I know) The treatment was amazing!!!!. I've been to other spa's but the skin spa is in a totally different league. The prices are very affordable, yet the quality of the treatments is superb. My esthetician was very knowledgeable in skincare and of the treatment. I highly recommend the skin spa to anyone looking to find quality skincare at a very affordable price.

  • Pros: very zen enviornment, affordable
