Our Services

Dermaplaning

Immediately rejuvenates the skin by removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells and villous hair "peach fuzz." This treatment is highly effective in minimizing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and acne scars while leaving your skin smooth and vibrant.

Elleebana Lash Lift and Tint

Elleebana lash lifting opens the eyes and gives your lashes a longer, thicker and darker appearance. Lasting 6 to 8 weeks, it offers better quality maintenance than lash extensions. This treatment is hypoallergenic and free of gluten, paraben, formaldehyde and latex.

Illuminating Enzyme Treatment

Our PCA Age-Defy Illuminating Enzyme treatment improves the texture of your skin with papaya enzymes, tartaric acid and lactobionic acid. This anti-aging and brightening treatment with resveratrol reveals instantly stronger, healthier looking skin with a noticeable glow. This is a great treatment for all skin types.

PCA Mini Facial

Our 30-minute mini facial treatment exfoliates and enhances blood flow, leaving your skin with a healthy glow.

PCA Teen Facial

Our customized teen facial treats clogged pores and blemishes. We offer complimentary skin analysis and education on how to cleanse, treat, hyrdate and protect your skin daily.

PCA Professional Signature Facial

Our PCA Professional Signature Facial is an excellent first-time treatment and a great choice for those who do not want to experience peeling. It calms, soothes and strengthens all skin types and conditions. For the best results, we recommend doing this treatment every 4 to 6 weeks.

PCA Oxygenating Trio Facial

Our PCA Oxygenating Trio Facial is a three-step system designed to promote a radiant, healthy glow by stimulating oxygenation and circulation within the skin, rejuvenating sluggish, stressed or acne-affected skin as it draws oxygen to the skin’s surface.

PCA Detox Gel Deep Pore Facial

Our PCA Skin Detox Gel deep pore treatment is a gentle cleansing procedure for detoxifying all skin types. Thanks to the active blend of lactic, glycolic and salicylic acids, it exfoliates and promotes a purified, clearer complexion.

PCA Professional Custom Chemical Peels

Chemical peels speed up exfoliation that leaves your skin looking fresh and healthy. This treatment is safe and effective in improving aging, acne, discoloration and sensitive skin/rosacea. Benefits include reduced fine lines and wrinkles, reduced oil production and breakouts, and diminished discoloration revealing smoother and softer skin. PCA Certified professionals are trained to identify which peel treatment best treats your skin to achieve maximum benefits.
