Love You Guys!

by marielenajus at Citysearch

After trying lota a places in Miami I found the best facial here. First they were so nice on the phone, booking a appointment for me on Thurs. nite at 9p.m. I was so happy, since I work so late in Doral and needed a facial desperately. Shelia. came with fresh berry green ice tea and a big smile. She then worked on my face for at least a hour and half. She explained how I could help my skin keep clear after. Everything seh did was so helpful for my skin. The cool lights calmed my redness down and was good for getting rid of bacteria, she told me. I was happy she explained each thing to me and gave me great samples to try. Julia gave my boyfriend a vitamin c facial that massaged lots of pure vitamin into his skin to make We love the way they try to meet all your wants. I like feeling special. We love you guys.

my favorite facials in MIA

by vasalloe at Citysearch

Love going here. Sheila (owner) is the heart and soul of this spa and her facials are bar none. Being a spa-ho i have gone to the best spas in miami and really have found that Skin Institute has the best quality facials and the price is so much better than the ritzy high end spots around town. You get more pampering here at a better price. Sheila makes you feel like you're home.

• Pros: best service, ambience and quality of facial

Best of the best

by mavaldez at Citysearch

I always love the way my face looks after my microfermabrasion facials. It keeps on glowing like a young kids skin.I've been using their cleanser and sunblock to keep it nice,soI'm totally happy with my face. Dont forget to try the organig lemonade,its great and good for you they say. You can get lots of other things done,but so far I've only had time for the facials. And wow,what a facial.

• Pros: great results/service/products

Amazing Experience

by ginasez at Citysearch

It's been about seven years that I've been getting facials from Sheila and my face is 500% better than before. I had never tried anything else but her amazing facials. I live in Palmetto, so I'm always concerned about the time.Then 2 weeks ago my husband asked me if I wanted to try a couples massage. Wow! He hit a Home Run! First we had champagne while we sat in the sauna & relaxed. We laid on our beds,with the fountain & candles and I almost Fell asleep! Both masseuses were so good. We melted with their touch. They worked on us,soothing our tired bodies. Now I know Skin Institute is more than excellent facials,it's also a romantic getaway.

• Pros: Experienced Pros,Beautiful&Clean,Best Services

Incredible Facial

by bahn28 at Citysearch

With my birthday coming I needed a good facial My friend recommend Sheila and I went. The best facial of my life. All impurities gone. A little red for like 2 hours,but now looks fantastic. Only place to get very professional facial and at excellent price. One hour and quarter for $60! Most important is that my face is perfect now. I took a bag with a lot of free sample to try. So many nice things to try! And all the people were happy and smiling. I like such a bright place.

Wonderful experience

by zsac at Citysearch

We were wowed from the first moment. You enter a cozy place with fresh flowers and warm friendly staff. They'll pour you an organic drink & help you relax.We even relaxed in the Sauna ftogether with nice Malbec (free!) What comes next is the absolutely best facial you will ever have, With so many years experience Sheila will magically transform your skin into a fresh clear face. She knows what to do & makes you want more. Meanwhile Lia got a deep tissue massage that totally relaxed her. The guy worked the soreness out of her.He gave her the new energy she needed. We found a new home.

• Pros: Excellent service and Results
• Cons: Far from Coconut Grove

Best Acne Facial

by racingstryp at Citysearch

It took me a long time to find an acne specialist but I finally did.My skin is soooo much better now. I don't have to worry about bumpy skin anymore. I like the way Shelia explained the procedures to me first. I knew I was in good hands right away. She got it all out and then put me under this really bright light which she said kills bacteria. All I know is I dozed off for a little bit after laying under it. I checked out my bag of samples and tried the cleanser and shave cream. I be back soon to get more.

• Pros: top service, super professional,super sanitary
• Cons: zero

Horrible Facial

by sumer at Citysearch

I have had monthly facials for most of my life. I recently moved to Miami and needed to find a facialist here. After reading all the good reviews, I decided to give it a try. Big mistake for me. Never have I left with scars on my face from painful extractions. What's worse is that I had scabs all over my face by the time I woke up the following morning. I don't even have bad acne! Maybe if your facial does not involve extractions, I would believe the great reviews. Otherwise, look elsewhere.

• Pros: Can't think of one
• Cons: Extraction nails

Excellent Facial, Service

by kbumgar00 at Citysearch

If your main goal is to get a good quality facial at a great price, this is an excellent choice. The Skin Institute is not a good choice if you want upscale ambiance and amenities.

Pro: The staff is very friendly. I showed up early, and they made me feel right at home while I waited.

Pro: The woman that performed my deep cleansing facial worked so quickly and did a great job. It was clear that she knew exactly what she was doing.

Pro: Very reasonable price. One hour facial was $60.

Pro: Free gift bag with every purchase, including sample products and a t-shirt.

Con: Run down building and a very cramped office.

• Pros: Knowledgeable and Friendly Staff
• Cons: Older building, small office
