About

Afterglow Skin Studio has offered preventative and corrective skin treatments for about a decade, according to the salon. The studio's philosophy is that aging should be slowed, embraced and supported rather than corrected, and its menu reflects that with facials, peels, resurfacing and massage.

Each treatment is tailored to the individual client's skin. Botanical ingredients from Botnia, grown on the brand's micro-farm in Sausalito, California, are used alongside facial massage and clinical products from Osmosis and CosMedix for deeper concerns. Founder Katerina Danielle Perez builds personalized protocols that clients can follow both in the studio and at home.

Facials range from a 25-minute Express Glow to an 80-minute Afterglow Reset with skin analysis, several enhancements, massage and LED light. Individual treatment pricing starts at $89 and depends on time, products and customization, according to the salon. Deposits are taken at booking: $50 for facials and most services, and $15 for underarm and brow waxes. Clients who buy a package book sessions as usual, and package credits apply automatically at checkout.

Microchanneling begins with a professional skin assessment to determine candidacy. The salon describes its Advanced Resurfacing as using peels with high concentrations of active ingredients, both natural and high-performance, and says Microchanneling is both corrective and preventative. The salon also says its Beauty Blueprint bundles save money compared with booking treatments separately.

Before-and-after photos are taken at sessions, and they are shared only with the client's explicit permission. Listed hours are 9 to 6 on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, and 9 to 2 on Saturday.

Each treatment is tailored to the individual's skin, combining botanical ingredients and massage with clean and clinical formulations. The philosophy centers on slowing and supporting skin rather than correcting it.
