I?ve been to Olena?s before, for a microdermabrasion facial. First off, scheduling was a nightmare; I could only come in on specific days of the week, but the person who was scheduling me (who turned out to be Olena herself) would NOT listen at all to what I was saying. The facial itself was painful. I don?t have bad skin; I have numerous facialists that I have been to who can testify to that. Olena, however, spent a lot of time telling me how bad my skin was. Her recommendation to me was to cut out ?sweet foods, salty foods, spicy foods, don?t eat too many carbs?, etc. In other words, eat a completely bland diet. After the facial, I checked out her many ?degrees? and certifications on the wall. Most of them came from mail order schools like Stratford, places that are well known as basically degree mills. And to cap it all off? She left grainy particles all over my skin and in my hair, and I started to break out (for the first time in years!) after this treatment. It took my skin a month and a half to calm down. I highly recommend you DO NOT go to this spa for ANYTHING!
