Skin Shape-Up

The Sonya Dakar Skin Clinic in Beverly Hillsis a favorite among Hollywood’s elite

Get your skin in tip-top shape with Sonya Dakar’s Facial Fitness Treatment & Custom Green Tea Peel, $225 at the Sonya Dakar Skin Clinic in Beverly Hills. “These are not facials,” explains Dakar. “This is meant to get your skin in shape, just like going to the gym does for your body.” Her revolutionary skin treatments have cleared up the complexions of some of Hollywood’s leading ladies. The Facial Fitness Treatment starts with a thorough cleansing, followed by steaming. Enzyme Peeling Cream is applied for a gentle exfoliation and to prepare skin for maximum absorption of serums, masks and moisturizers.

Following any necessary extractions, skin is pampered with a soothing mist of Aromasol. Next, the Triple Action Organic Scrub is applied to slough off old, scarred skin cells and lighten discoloration. A customized peel containing acne-eradicating lactic acid, green tea and wheat grass is followed by a calming mask. A generous application of revitalizing Omega 3 Repair Complex, a celebrity favorite, is massaged into the face. The treatment concludes with Hydrasoft Lotion and a dab of Drying Potion on any irritated blemishes.
