Palmetto Estates, FL Beauty and Salons

Helmed by medical director Dr. Victor Shabanah, a specialist in hormone replacement and age-management medicine, Anti Aging Med Spa whittles waists and smoothes skin planes with traditional surgery and noninvasive laser- and LED-light treatments. Inside a sleek, white office with views of the Miami River, Dr. Shabanah draws on an arsenal of weight-loss techniques, including metabolism-boosting hCG and physician-assisted programs. Lasers take a break from slowly eroding the moon to battle obesity, blemishes, and cellulite with Med Spa's skincare laser treatments. Dr. Shabanah also beautifies frames with a trio of cosmetic services and nonsurgical skin-refreshing treatments, such as Juvéderm injections and IPL photofacials.

Exclusively Men's is an upscale salon that specializes in the cutting-edge aesthetic of the Y-chromosome. Dapper, style-seeking gents are invited to sit back and relax as their faceparts are pampered and follicles are expunged by a skilled, razor-wielding professional. The Royal Shave includes a hot-towel shave, royal mask, and facial massage to leave your skin as soft as a baby's silk diaper.

Esthetique's technicians employ a battery of noninvasive devices and solutions to enhance beauty by smoothing and resurfacing skin. Aestheticians administer alpha-hydroxy-acid peels to remedy brown marks or deeply exfoliate with diamond microdermabrasions that even facial texture and fade fine lines. For cheeks battling sieges of blemishes, LED blue-light acne treatments gradually banish clusters of stubborn pimples back to the sinister oil dimension from whence they came. Laser hair removal defoliates follicles from the upper lip to the legs, and VelaShape treatments provide subterranean smoothing by eliminating cellulite and tightening sagging skin on the thighs and buttocks.

Armed with Image Skincare's pharmaceutical-grade products, Via Esthetique's aesthetician Portia Masquas helps clients rewind facial clocks with anti-aging treatments. The spa's three-pronged approach focuses on correcting problem spots, safeguarding against future damage, and nourishing skin with vitamins to leave it looking fresher and brighter than when it's been polished with Windex. Facials, waxing sessions, and peels refine guises in private, candlelit chambers, where russet-brown curtains and sleek black furniture add unobtrusive panache to soft, soothing cream walls.
