Honest answers.

No — I service all clients. Men's skincare is my specialty and the niche I'm known for, but the studio is open to everyone. The approach is the same: customized treatments, no protocols, no filler. Book whichever service fits the time and depth you want.

If you're new, book based on time. Most clients start with 80 or 100 minutes to allow for a full assessment and treatment.

I recommend a facial every 4–6 weeks to maintain healthy skin and address any specific concerns. Some clients come more frequently when working on a specific goal; others stretch to every 8 weeks once their skin is in a good place.

I offer 30, 60, 80, 100, and 120 minute services. Choose your duration based on what you want to address — everything is included, no add-ons.

Yes — book through this website or by calling or texting (626) 807-8426. I recommend booking in advance to ensure availability.

A $50 deposit is required to book. Appointments require at least 24 hours' notice for changes or cancellations. Deposits are forfeited within that window.

Yes — gift certificates are available for any of the five element services (Rt, Cr, Op, El). Browse the Packages page or contact me directly.

A full cleanse, exfoliation, and nourishment of the skin. May also include extractions and specialized treatments like masks, serums, or device modalities (LED, microdermabrasion, peels) depending on what your skin needs. Every session ends with guidance on care between appointments.

High-quality, professional-grade skincare from Le Mieux, Kizo Lab, and Renee Rouleau. I can also recommend at-home products to maintain results between appointments.

Yes — treatments are customized to accommodate sensitive skin using gentle, non-irritating products. Sensitivity is one of the conditions I specialize in working with.

Both — but the priority is results. Treatments are designed to improve texture, clarity, and overall skin performance. The relaxation is a side effect of doing the work right.

Avoid exfoliating, retinol, or active treatments 2–3 days before your visit. Come in with clean skin if possible. If you are receiving a chemical peel or other specialized treatment, I may provide additional instructions ahead of time.

I recommend avoiding makeup for the rest of the day after a facial to allow your skin to fully absorb the benefits of the treatment. If you must wear makeup, use non-comedogenic products and avoid heavy foundations or powders.
