What the treatment includes
This luxury facial begins with diamond hydrodermabrasion to gently remove dead skin cells and surface impurities, followed by an Arctic Berry 20% AHA Peel that targets the appearance of texture, fine lines, wrinkles, redness and collagen loss. A Red LED session supports natural cell turnover, then a masque massage and radio frequency session finish the treatment.
At Spa Apsara in Fircrest, our practitioners layer these methods for a single comprehensive session; client-specific adjustments are made depending on skin sensitivity and history. Because the procedure combines exfoliation, chemical peel and energy-based tightening, we review your skin care routine and recent sun exposure at consultation. Appointments scheduled for mornings, evenings or weekends fit commuting clients and local family schedules.
How each step works
Diamond hydrodermabrasion uses a diamond-tipped wand to abrade the outermost skin layer while suction removes loosened debris, creating a cleaner surface for topical treatments. The Arctic Berry 20% AHA Peel applies alpha hydroxy acids to accelerate surface cell turnover and to improve the look of texture, fine lines and redness when combined with proper aftercare; concentrations are selected for visible resurfacing effects.
Red LED light therapy is included to support collagen and elastin production and to help reduce inflammation and encourage cell turnover; it is non-invasive and pairs well with the prior chemical exfoliation. The masque massage provides hydration and relaxation, and the radio frequency skin tightening session uses energy to warm deeper layers, intended to firm the skin's appearance when combined with repeated treatments and good home care.
Preparing and timing locally
Before your appointment we assess recent skin treatments, product use and sun exposure to determine whether the 20% AHA Peel and radio frequency are appropriate. Clients who recently used strong topical retinoids or had recent sunburn may need a modified approach; be honest about at-home acids and exfoliants so your technician can adjust the protocol for safety and comfort.
Spa Apsara is conveniently located in Fircrest with easy access from SR-16, making before-or-after-commute appointments practical for Tacoma and peninsula clients. Many local clients book treatments around rounds at Chambers Bay or visits to Point Defiance, and our schedule accommodates early mornings, evenings and weekends to fit family and work commitments without long drives into downtown Tacoma.
