Face Place

Founded in 1972, the Face Place was one of the first salons in LA to use galvanic current and vitamin C in its facial (they offer only one type). Stark waxing studio shares the space, so you can get a two-fer before a special event. The atmosphere here is a little clinical—lots of white, very professional (read: serious, straight-faced, terse) employees, and a formulaic set of steps that doesn't change (but apparently has great results). Great for problem skin, or for a semi-weekly or monthly standing appointment. Get in, get extracted, get out.
