About

The business was founded by Joanna Vargas, whose first spa was above Fifth Avenue in New York. It now operates spas in New York, Brooklyn and West Hollywood alongside its skincare line. The business describes itself as award-winning and describes its skincare as clean and results-driven, and it lists press coverage from Vogue, Allure, The New York Times, Glamour, The Wall Street Journal, the Los Angeles Times and Self.

Facials are priced from $75 to $800 and fall into signature, advanced and light-based groups. Prices depend on session length, the technology used and the esthetician level, with a surcharge for a Master Esthetician, and the exact price appears at booking.

Appointments can be booked online, where they are confirmed instantly, or by phone. A card is held to reserve the appointment and payment is made at the spa. Clients are asked to arrive 10 to 15 minutes early and to mention any medications, allergies or recent procedures. A free Skin Code Quiz of seven questions, taking about two minutes, suggests treatments and products, and larger packages give a bigger discount per service.

Bridal shower, wedding preparation and group visit inquiries can be sent through the website, though sending one does not confirm a booking. The business states that results are not guaranteed and may differ between clients, and that its treatments are not a substitute for professional medical treatment.

Treatments are adjusted on the day to what each client's skin needs, and facials pair device technology with plant-derived formulas and manual technique.

The New York spa is on the third floor of a Midtown Manhattan building, across from the New York Public Library.
