| *Subject to credit approval | | Here's a quick summary of some facial treatment options and what you might expect to pay: | | | 1. European Facial: $851 | | |
| A European facial is great for beginners. It generally consists of deep cleansing; exfoliating; steaming; black/whitehead extraction; and massage with a moisturizer. A European Facial can help treat the following skin conditions: dull skin; clogged pores and breakouts. | | |
|

| | 3. LED Light Facial: $553 | | |
| During an LED light facial, a spa facial specialist will shine heat-free, UV-free red or blue light on your skin. This light helps the cells create more collagen and elastin. | |
| | 4. Vampire Facial: $1,0004 | | |
| Dermatologist draws your blood, extract the plasma, and then apply it to your skin through injection or microdermabrasion. | | |
| 5. Acupuncture Facial: $7005 | | |
| Fine needles are inserted into the skin (between 40 and 70). The needles create minor wounds under the skin that encourage the body to produce healing proteins (collagen and elastin) to improve the appearance of your skin. | | |
|
| Gently scraping away the top layer of dead skin cells from your face with a sharp surgical blade. Removing dead skin can help prevent breakouts and improve your skin's ability to absorb serums and moisturizers. | | |
| 7. Microdermabrasion: $1757 | | |
| Aesthetician gently exfoliates the skin and vacuums the dead cells away after cleansing and steaming your face. They may use either a spray and vacuum method or a wand and vacuum method. They will typically apply moisturizer afterward. | | |
|

|
| Procedure that involves piercing just below the lowest layer of the skin with tiny, sterilized needles to boost collagen production. Creating tiny superficial wounds in the skin encourages your body to make more collagen and elastin to heal (proteins that help your skin look younger). | |
|
| 10. Oxygen Facial: $75 -$50010 | | |
| An aesthetician will clean and exfoliate your skin, then use a special wand to apply oxygen. The wand delivers highly pressurized oxygen to your skin which may help brighten skin cells, followed by serum or moisturizer. | | |
