Hear From Our Clients
A reputation built on 350+ client experiences across our premier locations.
Your skin tells the story of your life. Long commutes to Manhattan, work stress, and Brooklyn’s urban environment all leave their mark. But here’s what changes when you get a facial that’s actually designed around results instead of relaxation theater.
You’ll notice your complexion looks clearer within days, not weeks. Those stubborn pores that makeup can’t quite cover? They shrink. The dullness that makes you look tired even when you’re not? Gone. Fine lines that seemed to appear overnight start softening.
This isn’t about an hour of pampering—though you’ll get that too. It’s about walking out with skin that looks like you’ve been taking better care of yourself than you actually have time for. When you’re juggling family, work, and that 44-minute average commute, your skincare routine shouldn’t be another source of stress.
We’ve been serving Brooklyn residents since 2009, with Jennifer DiLandro bringing 18 years of medical experience to every treatment. As a nurse practitioner who once served as Director of Nursing at Synergy First Surgical Center, she’s treated thousands of patients who needed real solutions, not just good intentions.
Every treatment plan we create is supervised by doctors. Every technique is backed by medical training. Every client gets individualized care because your skin isn’t like everyone else’s. This matters more than you might think—most spas use the same basic approach for everyone, which is why results are often disappointing.
Gerritsen Beach residents appreciate straight talk and proven results. You’re not looking for someone to tell you what you want to hear—you want someone who knows what actually works. That’s exactly what you get here. No overselling, no unnecessary add-ons, just the treatments that will actually make a difference for your specific skin concerns.
First, we analyze your skin properly. Not a quick glance—a real assessment of what’s going on beneath the surface. Oily T-zone but dry cheeks? Stress breakouts around your jawline? Fine lines that seem to appear overnight? Sun damage from years of Gerritsen Beach waterfront living? We see it all.
Then we customize your treatment. Maybe you need deep pore extractions to clear congestion. Maybe it’s microdermabrasion to resurface dull skin damaged by salt air and city pollution. Or chemical peels to address sun damage from all those years before you knew better about daily SPF.
During treatment, we use medical-grade products and techniques that actually penetrate your skin instead of just sitting on top. You’ll feel the difference immediately—your skin will be softer, smoother, and noticeably clearer. We’re not just applying products; we’re using advanced techniques like high-frequency treatments, ultrasonic infusion, and targeted serums.
Afterward, we give you a realistic maintenance plan. No 47-step routines you’ll never follow. Just the essentials that work with your schedule, budget, and Brooklyn’s changing seasons. Because what works in July humidity isn’t the same as what you need during February’s harsh winds.

We offer the full range of advanced facial treatments that Gerritsen Beach residents actually need. Hydrafacials for instant results before important events. Vampire facials using your own plasma for natural anti-aging. Aquagold treatments that deliver customized serums directly into your skin with 24-karat gold micro-needles thinner than human hair.
Chemical peels range from gentle lunch-hour treatments to more intensive resurfacing options. Microdermabrasion removes dead skin cells that make you look tired and dull. Laser facials target specific concerns like acne scarring, sun damage, or uneven pigmentation that’s common in waterfront communities.
Living in Gerritsen Beach means dealing with unique environmental factors. The salt air can be drying. The humidity affects oil production. Year-round weather changes stress your skin in different ways. We understand these local factors and adjust treatments accordingly. Your summer facial needs are different from your winter ones, and we plan for that.
Every service includes proper extractions when needed, targeted serums based on your skin analysis, and protective treatments that make sense for Brooklyn’s climate and your lifestyle. We also offer oxygen infusion treatments that are particularly beneficial for stressed, urban skin that needs deep hydration and cellular renewal.
Most clients see optimal results with monthly facials, but it depends on your skin type and specific concerns. If you’re dealing with active acne or significant sun damage, you might benefit from treatments every 2-3 weeks initially, then space them out as your skin improves.
For maintenance and general skin health, monthly facials work well with your skin’s natural renewal cycle. Your skin regenerates approximately every 30 days, so regular treatments help keep this process working efficiently. Think of it like regular maintenance for your car—consistent care prevents bigger problems.
We’ll create a realistic schedule based on your skin’s needs, your budget, and your availability. Some clients prefer seasonal intensive treatments, while others like consistent monthly maintenance. Many Gerritsen Beach residents find that quarterly deep treatments combined with good home care work well with their busy schedules and commute demands.
Medical facials use clinical-strength products and techniques that penetrate deeper into your skin. While a spa facial focuses primarily on relaxation, medical facials are designed to address specific skin concerns with measurable results that you can actually see and feel.
We can use stronger chemical peels, medical-grade serums, and advanced techniques like microdermabrasion or laser treatments. All procedures are supervised by doctors and performed by licensed professionals with medical training. This isn’t just about feeling pampered—it’s about getting real improvements in your skin.
The products we use contain higher concentrations of active ingredients like glycolic acid, salicylic acid, and retinoids. This means more dramatic improvements in skin texture, tone, and clarity, but also requires proper assessment and aftercare to ensure your safety and results. You’re investing in actual skin improvement, not just temporary relaxation.
Absolutely. Professional facials are often more effective for acne than over-the-counter products because we can perform proper extractions and use stronger treatments safely. Many people make their acne worse by using harsh products that strip the skin, causing it to produce even more oil.
Deep pore cleansing removes the buildup that causes blackheads and whiteheads. Chemical peels with salicylic acid penetrate oil-clogged pores to clear them from the inside out. High-frequency treatments kill acne-causing bacteria without harsh side effects that damage your skin barrier.
For oily skin, we use treatments that regulate oil production rather than stripping your skin completely. This is crucial—when you over-dry oily skin, it often responds by producing even more oil. Regular professional treatments, combined with the right home care routine, can significantly improve acne-prone skin within 6-8 weeks. Most clients see clearer skin after just one treatment.
Immediate results like smoother texture and improved hydration last about a week. Deeper improvements in skin tone, reduced pore appearance, and overall clarity develop over 2-4 weeks as your skin continues to regenerate with the benefits of professional treatment.
The longevity of results depends on the type of treatment, your skin condition, and how well you maintain your skin at home. Chemical peels and microdermabrasion provide longer-lasting improvements than basic cleansing facials. More intensive treatments create changes that build over time.
With regular treatments, you’ll notice cumulative benefits. Your skin will maintain better texture, fewer breakouts, and a more even tone. Most clients find that monthly facials keep their skin looking consistently better than sporadic treatments. It’s like the difference between regular exercise and working out once every few months—consistency creates lasting change.
Most facials have minimal to no downtime. You might experience slight redness for a few hours after treatment, especially with extractions or chemical peels. This is normal and typically fades quickly—most clients can go back to work the same day.
More intensive treatments like deeper chemical peels or microdermabrasion might cause light peeling or sensitivity for 2-3 days. We’ll prepare you for what to expect and provide proper aftercare instructions. The key is knowing what you’re getting into before your appointment.
We always perform a thorough skin assessment before treatment to identify any sensitivities or contraindications. Our medical background means we’re trained to minimize risks and handle any reactions appropriately. Most clients can return to normal activities immediately after treatment, though we recommend avoiding intense sun exposure for a few days.
Come with clean skin—no makeup if possible, though we can remove it during treatment. Avoid using any new skincare products for at least a week before your appointment to prevent unexpected reactions. Your skin should be in its normal state so we can assess it properly.
Let us know about any medications you’re taking, especially retinoids, antibiotics, or blood thinners, as these can affect how your skin responds to treatment. Also mention any recent cosmetic procedures, sun exposure, or skin sensitivities you’ve experienced in the past.
Don’t schedule your facial right before important events until you know how your skin reacts. While most people see immediate improvements, it’s better to have your first treatment when you have a few days to adjust if needed. Bring a list of current skincare products so we can recommend the best home care routine that actually works with your lifestyle and budget.
