About

The Facial Studio is located in Suite 9 at Paradise Drive in Corte Madera and has been working in Bay Area skincare for more than 40 years. Owner Willa Young oversees the studio, which runs on appointments only. Clients can reach the studio at 415-927-3223. Hours are Tuesday 10:30am to 2:00pm, Wednesday and Friday 10:30am to 3:45pm, and Saturday 10:00am to 3:15pm.

The studio's approach rests on clean products, regular upkeep and personal attention, in a calm, sanitized room where care is meant to feel nurturing and educational. Every visit begins with a skin analysis, and the esthetician recommends treatments and products only after that step. Facials cover cleansing, extracting and exfoliating, with products suited to the client's skin, and finish with a pressure point massage. The Mini Facial is offered as a lighter option and does not include extractions.

Beyond facials, the menu includes microdermabrasion for deep exfoliation and moisturizing, with the face version extending to the neck and décolleté. Waxing is offered for the lip, eyebrows, face (without brows), underarms, bikini, arms and legs, using a soft wax on the face and a firmer wax on the body. Eyebrow tinting is available for a fuller, more defined brow, and special treatments include Hi-Frequency and back extractions. The salon describes itself as Marin's most experienced in deep pore cleansing facials and as one of the leading skincare providers in the Bay Area; these are its own claims.

Each service starts with a skin analysis, and products are selected for each client's individual needs rather than a single standard line.

A calm, sanitized studio intended to feel nurturing and educational.
