Layers Skin Care by Gia

Layers Skin Care by Gia is a woman-owned studio in Westminster, owned and run by licensed esthetician Gia. The studio serves clients from Arvada, Denver, Broomfield, Golden, Boulder, Superior and the wider North Denver metro area. Parking is available at the building, and the space is listed as accessible for people with disabilities.

Each visit begins with a conversation rather than a set menu. The studio says treatments are chosen and adjusted to each client's skin condition, sensitivities and long-term goals, and that the approach is thoughtful and inclusive. The treatment room is private, and appointments are paced without rushing so there is time to talk through the skin and the reasons for each step.

In-studio treatments and recommended home routines use professional products from Truth Treatment Systems. The express facial runs 30 minutes and covers cleansing, exfoliation, moisturizer and SPF for $50. A custom facial begins with a skin analysis followed by a tailored treatment, roughly 60 to 90 minutes, starting at $120. Adding lymphatic drainage massage makes it a 90-minute visit at $180, and a 90-minute back facial is listed at $150. Facial peels start at $120, and chemical peels, about an hour long, are used to address uneven tone, congestion, fine lines and visible discoloration. Dermaplaning takes about 80 minutes at $115 and removes surface buildup and fine facial hair. Microdermabrasion is a 60-minute service at $60, and a 90-minute facial with nano needling is $140. Microneedling, called the Collagen Renewal Treatment, takes about 60 minutes and starts at $200.

Add-ons include microcurrent, which uses low-level electrical currents on the face, at $30; an oxygen infusion treatment at $75; and an Electrolyte Infusion Mask at $18, which the studio describes as soothing dryness and dullness. Nose waxing is also offered at $15. Lash and brow services start at $30, with eyelash tint and eyebrow tint at $30, eyelash lifts from $95 (or $110 with tint) and eyebrow lamination at $70, which the studio lists as lasting up to two months. Packages of three let clients buy in advance and use the sessions at any time, and include dermaplaning at $300 and microneedling at $555. The studio notes that results vary by individual and that gallery images are not a guarantee of identical results. It says its client feedback is verified, and Booksy shows a 5.0 average from six reviews.

Treatments start with questions about concerns, sensitivities, home routine, past treatments and goals, and products and steps are adjusted to the skin's current condition. The studio favors a realistic maintenance plan over a single routine, with a facial schedule suggested according to skin, goals and home care.
