I have been getting my facials and microdermabrasions from here for about five years. The prices are great and I like that the instructor comes in to go over the skin analysis with the student. I would say that if you haven't had a skin treatment, this is a good start. It may be more comfortable to go here than a spa for first timers. They have great monthly specials if you're on the mailing list. The atmosphere here is professional and soothing. I've been to other student spas that are crappy and run down so this is refreshing. The products they use are not full of abrasive chemicals. I find that the students really want to help you with whatever skin issue you're having. The facials are customized for your specific problems or concerns. I have probably taken six of my friends here and a couple who have never had a facial. I love taking out of town guests here because it is affordable and we're not spending the entire day there. I highly recommend trying this place.
