Updated: Nov 29

At Skin Alchemy HI, my goal has always been to create results-driven treatments that feel luxurious yet completely customized. Every facial is designed around what your skin truly needs that day, not what’s listed on a standard menu. One way I achieve this is by including certain modalities at no additional cost.


I don’t believe in charging extra for tools that are essential to achieving the best results. If your skin needs it and it is part of the modalities I offer, it is included automatically. This ensures every treatment is based on your skin’s unique needs rather than a list of upgrades.


Express facials excludes the Add-Ons List.

My Free Modality List with Recommended Time:

Here’s a closer look at the free modalities I offer and the recommended time needed for each to deliver optimal results.

What is the Free Add-Ons List???

The Free Add-Ons List is a group of professional tools and techniques that I may incorporate into your facial when appropriate. These are included because they are part of my standard of care. Each treatment is customized, which means you may experience different modalities from one appointment to the next, depending on how your skin responds over time.



Why I Don’t Charge Extra for These Add-Ons

In many spas, these may be sold with additional charges, but I see them as an essential and basic part of corrective skin care. Charging separately for them would limit your results and create unnecessary decisions during your treatment. By including them when needed, I can ensure that you receive the best possible outcome every time you visit.



How to choose your Free Add-Ons

I get it, there's a lot on that list, and you want EVERYTHING. If I were to do everything, it could take 4-5 hours! Which is why, on the intake forms you fill out before every facial, you can choose up to 6 add-ons/modalities. Or you can select "I'll let my esthetician decide" and leave it up to me!

Here's an example of what it will look like below:

By letting me know your top picks, I can craft a personalized treatment plan that guarantees you leave with the results and treatments you want!
