Visiting La Jolla my friends and I decided to look into some wellness offerings after a Pilates class. We found LivKraft and they offered the services we wanted. We opted for a cold plunge, sauna and red light experience (there was a red light panel in the sauna). The room accommodated both is us. Walking in the vibe was calm, aesthetic and inviting. The room we were in had everything we needed and then some. Everything was clean and set up for use. Instructions are on the wall, so we didn't need to ask for much during our time. We opted for a 50 minute session and it was perfect for the both of us. For two people, including tax and tip it came out to about $117. Highly recommend this place!! I look forward to coming back whenever I'm in town!

I used to come here pre pandemic and even bought a $380 package for what I remember was for three…read moreor four IV sessions. Then, the pandemic hit, life happened, and I moved. IVs were the last thing on my mind and they were in no rush for me to use the credits as I did not receive any type of reminder call from them. I called a week and a half ago letting them know that I'll be in town and would like a refund for the credit that I have. A receptionist confirmed that I did, indeed, have a credit and that it was for an IV package. She talked to the manager and told me that, not only can they not provide me a refund, but I can come in to redeem the credit for only one IV session since their prices went up. I was upset by this because it's not like I was asking for a refund for a service I was unhappy with, but for a credit that I clearly cannot use since my move. I explained to her that I had paid cash for the promotion that didn't come with any stipulations. I didn't sign anything and the person who sold it to me didn't tell me about any rules that came along with the promotion. The receptionist danced around the best she could, explaining to me that "most people usually use the service within a year" and offered me a vitamin B shot instead, which is worth less than an IV session...I declined and asked to speak to the manager, but, of course, she told me that they were unavailable. I asked that the manager please call me back later that day to discuss this matter further and left my number. I still, to this day, have not heard back from anyone. To me, this is pretty piss poor service and unprofessional. They basically are ignoring me so that they don't have to pay me the $380 back. It's not like it's $20. This is a big chunk of money that they've held on to and collected interest on. Debating whether or not a small claims court is worth it, but definitely spreading the word so that customers don't get bamboozled like I did.

I'm truly in love with La Jolla Skin Studio and their beautiful staff of Faith and Bianca. I can confidently say it was one of the best facials I've ever had. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and completely at ease. I first had a consultation with Faith and she was nothing short of amazing. She's incredibly sweet, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about helping people feel beautiful in their skin. She took the time to really understand my concerns and goals before recommending a customized treatment that fit my needs perfectly. The facial itself was both relaxing and effective--I left feeling refreshed, glowing, and so much more confident in my skin. Faith made the whole experience feel personal and luxurious, and I greatly appreciated her gentle, attentive approach throughout the session. If you're looking for a professional, caring, and results-driven experience in La Jolla, this is the place. I can't wait to go back! read more

I had the privilege of receiving a treatment from Faith and it was such a good experience. I'm 48 and have started noticing brown "sun/aging" spots on my face over the last year. I was a little nervous about getting a treatment because I have very sensitive skin. She took the time to explain exactly what she was doing throughout the entire treatment which really calmed my nerves. I received the Microdermabrasion treatment. This treatment resurfaces the skin and removes hyperpigmentation(brown discoloration) fine lines and wrinkles. In just one treatment I could see results. The brown spots are definitely lighter and I see less wrinkles. I've also noticed that my skin is more supple and my makeup blends in so much more easily and smoothly. Thank you Faith for making me feel so comfortable during the treatment. I will definitely start receiving these treatments on a regular basis. Book your appointment today, you will not regret it! read more

La Jolla Skin Studio is the BEST in the game! I've been in San Diego for 10 years, tried so many different spas, products, facials, peels, etc. The results you get with LJSS are unmatched, Faith is genuine, knowledgeable, and uses products and techniques that have been proven to work. Her studio is bright, clean and comfortable // equipped with modern technology I haven't been able to find anywhere else, from the Red Light Therapy treatment, Emsculpt, etc. Thank you Faith for saving my skin & making my face & body dreams come true! I always get complimented on my complexion, and it's all thanks to Faith. As someone who struggled with acne for a long time, I never thought I'd have the skin I have now. 1000/1000 recommend La Jolla Skin Studio. PS- Do the memberships! So worth it. Like anything else- consistency is key!! read more

Jen was super quick but thorough and lets you know what's happening the whole time. What I love best about her and Faith is that they're honest about the products that will work with your skin. They're also fair and professional when it comes to start & stopping membership. (I Did a membership for a pack of microchanneling). I'm excited to keep coming and try the glow60 next!
