Stella Skin & Laser Medspa — Local services in Duluth

of Visits: 6, more booked

I've been coming here since September of this year. I've gotten my eyebrows microbladed and two fractional lasers done for my acne scars. Stella and her assistant Mary are amazing. Although they're the only employees there, they're quick and efficient. Make sure to have an appointment before going though as they're usually filled with 2-3 clients at once. Best time to go is 1-4 pm on weekdays. Prices are also very reasonable, and they also have great package deals. Below are the services I've received in detail.

Eyebrow microblade: $200 + $20 tip = $220 They put on a topical numbing cream on your brows for about 30 minutes and you wait in a room. Stella draws the brows on you with a pencil first and asks for your input. She then begins the microblading procedure, painless (kind of tickles though) and takes about 20-30 minutes. You're advised to not to get the brow area wet for a week. What I did was I put on a waterproof band-aid over my brows when I took a shower or washed my face. Your brows begin to peel after a week, but do not pick!

Wait two weeks for a touch-up (free, touch-ups usually cost $ at other labs) Same process: numbing cream, draw with pencil, microblade, don't get the area wet for a week My brows look amazing and I'm so happy I don't have to draw them on anymore!

Fractional laser (3 times) + regeneration therapy (2 times) + toning laser (2 times) = $870 (usually worth $1200+ if done separately) They put on a topical numbing cream on your face for about 45 minutes-1 hr and you wait in a room. You move to the fractional laser room and Stella begins the laser process. Takes about 30 minutes for your entire face. Stella's also removed my beauty marks on my face for no extra cost! As soon as you're done, you move to the room you started at and they put on a cold collagen molding mask on your face. Your face will be hot and throbbing, but this mask helps a lot. You put it on for about 40 minutes.

Wait one week for regeneration therapy (takes about 1 hr; Mary gives you a massage and another molding mask!)

Wait one week for toning laser session (also takes about 1 hr with no numbing cream; Stella does all the laser treatments)

Wait two more weeks for another fractional laser

I've gotten TWO fractional lasers so far and the scars on right side of my face are almost gone (see photos). My face has gotten significantly smoother and clearer than before. My blackheads are also gone and my pores are almost non-existent.

They only administer fractional lasers during the fall and winter time (October to March), so you have to come in time. Also, fractional lasers are best for boxcar or rolling acne scars, not ice pick scars. I have one more laser session left, but planning on getting one more outside of my package deal. Their service is great and efficient. Definitely do not bad about spending money here and supporting a woman owned, small business. Thank you,...

I wrote a detailed review of what happened on Yelp, the character limit here only allows me to post the summary.

Went here to get a nice, relaxing facial. Got a messed up fractional laser facial which f&%*ed up my face. Made it red, dry, and gave me lines around my jawline and box around my mole on my right cheek. I was told this was standard and the redness would disappear in about 3 days. (Well, it's been 2 months and my face is still red, dry, and now it's sensitive! Anytime, I put a cream on, it stings!) Also, one of the employees (not Stella or Mary) messed up my face even more! Because of this and because I requested a refund (pretty sure about this part in particular), Stella offered 2 to 3 free treatments to try to fix what had happened with my face (at this point a raw tomato-like thing), which I'm not going to lie, I thought was quite amazing of her. I asked if this would go away over time without any further treatments, specifically if this (being the redness and dryness) would go away on it's own by next year or this October and they said yes, but with the treatments it would be faster. I didn't care about "fast," I just wanted it gone. I requested my refund since I did not see any significant change (even though Stella and Mary kept on saying "Oh it's just gotten so much better!" When I asked my friends, they didn't see a dramatic change). I regret so much coming to this place. I'm going to see a dermatologist soon because my face has just gotten worse and it's...

I have been coming to Stella Skincare for a year now. It started with a simple consultation with Stella about my facial conditions. Stella was very professional, polite and knowledgeable. She recommended a package that’s suitable for my facial conditions at that time. Since then I started getting my 90 mins treatment every other week. My aesthetician Ellen is the best. We just clicked from the first treatment I had with her. She’s very nice, professional, friendly, and funny. She always made me feel relaxed, comfortable, and satisfied with my treatment. I am sure other aestheticians are also nice and professional. Stella’s place is always clean. Recently they relocated to a new and bigger building. The new location looks even better and beautiful. Until these days I always look forward to my appointments at Stella Skincare. I look forward to being pampered by Ellen and getting the best treatment for my skin.

It has been a year and a half and Stella is still my favorite spa place. Thank you...
