WELLNESS/Elysian Medspa is a new open MedSpa, women-owned and operated. Coming from years in the industry, the owners wanted to created a space with top of the line, new machines to give their patients the best they deserve. Their prices are more reasonable than popular chain locations and you get dedicated, unrushed time for your care. We just refreshed our skin with their microneedling and chemical peel combination - which is a great one to do in the winter when you need to hide from the sun for a few days after. They apply your numbing cream with plenty of time to absorb before starting, giving you an experience with ease.
⏳Open Monday - Friday
