Snakes have it easy—they can shed bad skin at will and are never at a loss when it comes to jaw-unhinging party tricks. Today's Groupon rattles reptilian feelings of superiority while smoothing your skin. For $29, you get a non-chemical AHA/kojic facial peel from Skin Institute (a $90 value). As a clinical treatment, Skin Institute recommends this procedure for hyperpigmented skin and skin prone to breakouts.
Skin Institute's AHA/Kojic peel utilizes alpha hydroxy acids, or AHAs, and kojic acid to piece together a peel with properties to pulverize blemishes, blotches, and bad skin. The AHA, common in many skincare products, exfoliates the epidermis, casting out dead skin cells like autumn leaves from the closet. AHA is also reported to iron out wrinkles and ax acne. Kojic acid, a natural by-product of a Japanese mushroom, helps to lighten spots of skin darkened by increased melanin deposits. Put in peel form, this clinical concoction cocoons facial skin, allowing a beautiful hummingbird of smooth skeletal sheathing to emerge after 45 minutes.
Inside the spa's aloe-coated Fortress of Serenity, Skin Institute's attentive dermal do-gooders devote themselves to the personal and professional satisfaction of each and every client, using high-quality and cruelty-free products, as well as tranquil ambience, to put a smile on the skin.

- The entire atmosphere makes you feels as if its your own personal spa. Everyone who works there is extremely amiable, cater to you and try to make you feel as special and comfortable as they possibly can. I have very sensitive skin and am exceptionally picky and Sheila has given me the best facials I've ever had. – rosa fonseca, Citysearch
- The facial is amazing. All the dirt taken out and looking clean. And the place is so pretty. They have a lots of nice decoration. Some candle that smell like fresh fruit. Even the rooms are all smelling like some flower or fruits. It makes you to relax. – jannalea, Citysearch
- So good that I've been back already for another super duper facial with Sheila. My original facial with her showed how good my skin could look with the right stuff. I went back and found out I could look even better. What a deal. I'm hooked. – fischermann, Citysearch
