Piel Cara

Piel Cara has operated since 2018 and describes itself as an aesthetic sanctuary focused on skin health and on the person as well as the skin. The space is set up to feel warm and free of judgment, whether a client is new to skincare or has tried many treatments before.

Facials are time-based and tailored to each client's skin needs. The 60-minute Radiance Refresh is built around one signature modality. The 90-minute Enhanced Care adds targeted treatments, extractions, other therapeutic techniques and a massage. The 120-minute The Works combines two advanced modalities and extends facial massage to the neck, decollete and arms. A separate Teen Facial is for clients aged 13 to 17, includes a deep cleanse, exfoliation, extractions if needed, high frequency and a soothing mask, and requires an adult to accompany the client.

New clients book a consultation plus a treatment. First-time clients are advised to begin with a gentler treatment rather than a chemical peel or dermaplaning, unless skin concerns were discussed beforehand. Virtual skincare consultations are available. Appointments and product purchases are handled through the website.

The business carries Face Reality, Factor Five, PCA Skin, KRX and Stratia, and sells professional-grade products it uses in its treatment room and recommends to clients. Listed retail prices include an Eye/Lash Cream at $149.00, a Retinol Peptide Serum at $60.00, and an Ultra Gentle Gel Cleanser at $31.00.

Treatments are customized to each client rather than standardized, with skincare education built into visits and a focus on avoiding overwhelming product pitches.

The space is described as warm and judgment-free.
