Facials Bar opened on Girard Avenue in La Jolla in November 2025. The studio is open daily from 10 AM to 6 PM and is led by its founder, Alina Godz, a licensed esthetician who ran several beauty salons in Ukraine before moving to the United States. A complimentary 5-minute AI skin analysis, done in person with a Zemits scanner, is available for anyone unsure where to start.
HydroDiamond facials are the studio's signature treatment, introduced in December 2025 in 30, 45 and 60 minute versions. The 30-minute Mini covers HydroDiamond exfoliation, serum infusion, cold therapy and a sculpting massage. The 45-minute Signature adds gentle extractions, LED therapy with a hydrogel mask, and sculpting and hand massage. The 60-minute Platinum adds longer extractions, cryotherapy, an extended face massage, and scalp and hand massage. The studio describes the Platinum as its best-selling facial. Prices start at $119, with member pricing on each level.
The Face Reality Acne Program, launched in January 2026, is a guided clear-skin plan for persistent breakouts. It combines professional treatments with personalized home care. New clients begin with a 70-minute Initial Acne Consultation & Facial for $179, which is required and needs parent or guardian consent for clients under 18. Returning clients usually have facials every 2 to 4 weeks, with the 45-minute Face Reality Acne Facial priced at $169, or $139 for members. The studio calls Face Reality the number one professional acne treatment system in the U.S. and says it is a certified partner.
Sculpt and Lift facials pair a sculpting massage with lymphatic drainage to address puffiness and tension, in 30, 45 and 60 minute sessions. The Signature and Platinum versions add a buccal massage, which the studio says is intended for jawline definition and TMJ tension relief, and the Platinum also includes Gua Sha. Brow and lash services include brow tinting, brow shaping by waxing or tweezing, brow lamination that lifts and sets brow hairs and that the studio says lasts 6 to 8 weeks, and lash lifts that curl natural lashes. Packages combine lamination, tint and shaping, or lash lift and tint, for $135. Add-ons include dermaplaning, face microcurrent, pore extraction and neck and shoulder massage, though those shown at booking depend on the facial, the provider and timing.
Memberships are offered at three levels: Mini at $99 per month with one 30-minute facial, Signature at $139 per month with one 45-minute facial, and Platinum at $179 per month with one 60-minute facial. Members also get member pricing on additional facials. Memberships carry a 3-month minimum and then continue monthly until canceled, with fees billed to the card on file. Unused sessions roll over for 30 days, a membership can be frozen once a year for up to 3 months, and cancellation needs 30 days written notice after the minimum. Private facial parties suit groups of at least 3 guests, where each guest picks a treatment at 10% off. Packages for up to 4, 5 to 6, or 7 to 8 guests include a 30-minute facial for each guest, a Skin Discovery Bar, a Celebration Lounge, a party host, setup and cleanup, and complimentary sparkling drinks, tea and fruit. Bookings should be made at least 5 days ahead. Teen parties are welcome with parental consent for guests under 18. The studio says its Google rating is 4.9 from 163 reviews, as shown on its website, and that most current facials involve no downtime. Clients are asked to arrive with a clean face if possible, avoid retinol or strong actives for 48 hours before, and avoid waxing or laser treatments within a week. Parking is 2-hour free street parking nearby.
Pairs device-based facials and a complimentary skin analysis with guided, multi-visit plans for acne, with home care where the program calls for it.
