Editorial Review for Lia Schorr Skin Care & Medical Spa – by Daniella Brodksy

The Scene
In the '90s, Lia Schorr was the queen of Gotham day spas, as the scores of press clippings that line this spa's walls prove. While the posh bar has been raised to current standards of luxe (fresh lemonade, crudites and massaging pedicure chairs are among the improvements), Schorr has never stopped updating the services on her menu. The clientele is 50 percent male, so the 35-year beauty vet also provides shaving, anti-aging and acne advice geared towards men.

The Services
The famous European deep-pore cleansing facial, performed on a barcalounger, includes a skin analysis, stimulating upper-body massage, steam, incredibly thorough extraction and a high-frequency machine to prevent infection and breakouts. Then, to ensure you walk out glowing and without redness, aloe and mud masks are also applied. Other spa treats: microdermabrasion, skin lightening, crystal peels, full-body treatments, massage, waxing, laser hair removal, manicures, pedicures and a full line of skin-care products.

My husband and I are busy executives who never have time for our selves. Our children had just visited the Lia Schorr Day Spa and had raved about it. Therefore, for Mother’s & Father’s Day they decided to treat us to a spa day. It took a lot of convincing, but finally I was able to force my husband to take a day off. We had so much fun! What lovely and professional people they have on staff there. They are very well trained, so it was no wonder that we received fabulous results. My pedicure was incredible, my feet never felt so clean! The massage was to die for even my “Type A” husband was completely relaxed. And the facial left my skin looking and feeling flawless with the best results I’ve ever had! We had brought some champagne and hors d’oeuvres with us to enhance the experience, and it was very special. We felt warm and giddy and we so enjoyed the pampering we received.

For Father’s Day, my children gave me a gift certificate to The Lia Schorr Day Spa. I waited almost a full year to redeem it because, to tell you the truth, I really believed that guys like me didn’t need facial treatments. I was totally surprised to learn how little I actually knew about this world! Not only did my skin feel great, but I had a lot of fun as well. I was very impressed with my facialist and the way that she treated my skin. This guy will now be getting regular facials for the rest of his life!
