Services
Microscopic Electrolysis
This FDA-approved permanent hair removal method uses high-magnification microscopy to target hair follicles precisely. Our electrologists employ sterile disposable filaments and a blend of thermolysis and galvanic currents to safely treat all skin and hair types. Clients receive personalized treatment plans addressing unwanted hair caused by heredity, hormonal changes, or medical conditions.
Microbiome Facial
Custom facials restore skin's natural microbiome using prebiotic and postbiotic ingredients. Treatments include deep cleansing, enzyme exfoliation, and lymphatic drainage massage. The signature PIPER LILY facial combines acupressure techniques with botanical elixirs to improve skin texture, hydration, and overall radiance while addressing specific concerns like pigmentation or sensitivity.
Waxing
Professional waxing services target unwanted body hair with precision and care. We offer full leg, bikini, underarm, and facial waxing using high-quality products that minimize irritation. Treatments include post-wax soothing solutions to maintain skin health and reduce redness, with recommendations for optimal hair regrowth management.

Questions
What makes microscopic electrolysis different from laser hair removal?
Electrolysis is FDA-approved permanent hair removal that works on all skin and hair types using precise electrical energy, while laser targets melanin and only offers permanent reduction.
How do microbiome facials improve skin health?
Our facials use prebiotic and postbiotic ingredients to restore the skin's natural microbiome balance, improving hydration, reducing inflammation, and strengthening the skin's protective barrier function.
What certifications does Studio 1 Spa hold?
We maintain COPE National membership, 500-hour electrology certification, 870-hour spa esthetics certification, and multiple holistic energy healing credentials.
How should I prepare for a chemical peel?
Avoid UV exposure, laser treatments, and exfoliating products for 1-2 weeks before your appointment. Inform us about any recent permanent makeup procedures or skin sensitivities.

I've been going to Studio 1 Spa services for a few months now for regular electrolysis. The owner/esthetician Erica is friendly and kind, and the space is beautiful and inviting. She does a great job with the electrolysis and I would recommend this place to anyone.

Report
I've been going to Studio 1 Spa for just about 10 years, and I continue to be impressed by the services and the relaxing atmosphere. I've told countless people about the facials at Studio 1, as well as the pedicures (hands down the best in town). The owner is very professional and always puts her customers first. I won't go anywhere else for my spa services.
