Beauty & Spas in Montana

Montana's Fountain of Youth Med Spa relaxes patrons in a peaceful setting while improving the appearance of their skin with medical spa treatments. The noninvasive Intraceuticals oxygen facial kicks off with a professional aesthetician consultation. They'll take care not to upset sensitive face-flesh, which is easily offended and prone to public weeping. Next, the aesthetician selects one of four Intraceutical serums for each 30–45-minute treatment: the rejuvenation serum, which nourishes and hydrates starving skin; the Opulence serum, which balances uneven skin scales; the clarity serum, which banishes blemishes and irritation; or the Atoxelene-infusion serum, a natural alternative to antiwrinkle injections. All serums contain lightweight hyaluronic acid, vitamins A, C, and E, and green tea to protect skin from environmental hazards encountered during frosty high-altitude climbs to the drug store. The serum is applied with a stream of cool, calming pressurized oxygen that increases the rate of serum absorption. Initial results appear immediately, though skin should continue to improve during the following days.

The skilled technicians at Aesthetic Medicine combine medical expertise with advanced technology to quell uprisings of unwanted body hair. Using the intense-pulsed-light (ILP) therapy system, the 30–45 minute procedure penetrates the skin with gentle rays that heat up bristles at their vulnerable roots and work to wipe out the blood vessels that encourage hairs to grow via steady streams of compliments. Due to pesky hair-growth cycles, multiple treatments are required to prevent vengeful follicles from returning and being reincarnated as an embarrassing fur tattoo. The effective, safe hair-nullifying process enacts smooth long-lasting results and, unlike sifting through a significant other's emails, is a noninvasive procedure.

You won't hear percussive snaps and pops coming out of the treatment rooms at Vitality: A Creating Wellness Center. That's because Doctor of Chiropractic Jeff Mitchell doesn't crack spines; he specializes in gentle adjustments that use vibration to release locked-up vertebrae. The computerized Pro-Adjuster system knows precisely how much vibration to dole out and for how long. Dr. Mitchell uses these treatments to ease his clients' chronic headaches and help them lead pain-free lives.

Amber Nicholson and Ceilon Aspensen bring decades of experience to every cut and color treatment they perform at Salon Simpatico. Having worked with hair for so long, they're experts at creating looks that complement features or draw attention away from unflattering horns. The salon's service menu doesn't stop at the scalp, however; it also includes spa pedicures and Shellac manicures that resist chips for up to two weeks.

Bolstered by a fleet of five tanning-bed styles and a spray-tanning service, the friendly, knowledgeable staff at Sun Haven Tanning helps sun seekers revitalize their faded façades. Bed varieties vary by location, but both stores house sleek, up-to-date stand-up and lay-down units. Level one sun sponges can succumb to horizontal urges in a lay-down Fiesta bed for one 20-minute-maximum session ($6) or darken themselves with an unlimited number of sessions for five weeks ($50). The Matrix stand-up bed, a level four ultraviolet-equipped tube complete with a built-in fan, radio, and amateur stand-up comedian, can be enjoyed for 12 minutes at a time for up to 13 sessions ($28–$165).
