Charlie Kang Skin Care

This is my 3rd time here, although my first time since the pandemic started. Overall I would strongly recommend this place, with the caveat that this is not your typical American spa. The whole experience took about 2 hours. First you get changed into a gown and lay down on the heated bed under the covers. They clean your face and then give a consultation on what you might need. I appreciated that they were knowledgeable but not pushy about any treatments, and that they offered options at various price points. I opted for the microdermabrasion ($150). The microdermabrasion was one of the most thorough ones I’ve had. They went over my face, neck, and décolletage multiple times. They even went back after the treatment was over to suction part of my nose again. They put cotton balls in my ears to prevent any powder from getting in, which I appreciated. After that, they put tons on tons of lotions and potions and gave my face a thorough pampering. Two things I noticed that are different from many American places: 1) They don’t necessarily tell you what products they’re putting on your face. I trust these ladies so I didn’t have a problem with that, but if you have any sensitivities I might let them know upfront. 2) While the massage is incredibly soothing, it’s done with swift, deft hands rather than slow movements. At one point they were even lightly slapping my face! Not sure what that does (to help the serums absorb better? To whip my saggy skin into shape?), but it felt very nice! They also massage your arms, hands, and upper back. Again, very relaxing. When I came home, I could see that my face was visibly brighter and smoother. It’s been 8 hours and my skin still feels hydrated and soft! I will definitely be coming back again, and maybe bring my husband and mom because I think they will enjoy the experience!

Had my first facial here and i loved it. Highly recommend C. K skin care if you are interested in facials!
