I got the Ling Facial and it was great! I appreciate the complimentary skin analysis prior to the service. They took a lot of time to explain everything to me and provided skin care recommendations without being pushy about selling their products. The lady who did my actual facial was very knowledgeable and attentive to my skin concerns. Will definitely be back! read more

LING Spa - Union Square - Example report - Skin Care Near Me - New York, New York

Clean, beautiful spa; knowledgeable staff. I received the Rejuran injections with NO PAIN!!! Highly recommend

Went solely for their free skin analysis! It opens at 1 pm on the weekend, and it's available for the first 20 people. My friends and I were #12-15 ish, and we arrived at 13:20, so definitely come on time! The slots fill up quickly. After you put your name on the list, they'll call when you're ready. They tell you about your skin via a machine skin analysis and any recommendations. No purchase required. Overall, clean bright aesthetic and a "why not" activity in nyc. Bathroom available! read more

I've been a client of Michiko at Ling for 6 years and going to LING for 20 years. Anytime I have ever ventured out to try something new or a different spa, it has never measured up to the results I get with them. Without fail, after every facial, the first words out of my mouth are WOW. I'll be a client for as long as I can at this lovely, peaceful and incredibly professional old school New York skincare institution. read more

Great service , great facial, great experience, good customer service. Atmosphere and product use top of the line

Excellent service with great results!!! Ann has a magic touch and always does an amazing job! read more

I had the most incredible facial with Sara! She was so attentive, thorough and made me relaxed and comfortable. my skin is glowing!!! I already made my next appointment. read more

Had a wonderful experience with Mira. Did microdermabrasion which started with a cleaning, then massage, then microdermabrasion and then exfoliation and at least 2-3 masks. It was divine and I think she found all sorts of goodies in my sebum. Would definitely return and definitely recommend, despite the high price tag. read more

Estal saved my skin!! She is amazing as her strong knowledge about skin and remedies really made a difference. My skin has never looked and felt so good! Now it's been a week and my face is still incredibly firm and smooth. Highly recommend! read more

Ahh wait for it mazing!!! I got my botox shot from Hee Sun and she was experienced and skillful. I got a gift certificate from my wife for my 40th birthday and decided to get botox. I haven't looked this youthful since my early 30's. I will definitely be back to try their facials as I have heard it's awesome as well. read more

Very impressed by the way they treated me the moment I got there. Estal was my esthetician and she is just fantastic! She is very knowledgeable, caring, gentle. I got the microdermabrasion plus RF facial, and my skin is firm, clean, soft and bright. The products she recommended also super! It worth me to traveled all the way from CT. Already rebook with her for next facial. Highly recommended Ling Spa and Estal! read more

I've tried so many facial places in the city and this is my favorite! Great extractions - not painful, but effective. Perfect balance of relaxing and cleansing. Wonderful atmosphere. I'm trying to come every month! read more

Really had a great experience.. The facial felt luxurious and the extractions were practically painless.

I get my lip fillers here and they're very professional very clean. Explained to you. Everything always knowledgeable. I highly recommend this place. read more

I have been going to Ling's since the early 2000s and haven't turned to any other products! Their facials and products are out of this world!!! No one else can't compete! Kudos to their staff for always being pleasant and professional! read more

The best facial in the city! I've been using Ling products for years and so has my daughter. They've transformed our skin. Truly a lovely experience and the staff is welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend! read more

So, I visited my Cuz in NY (Birthday and investing time together) As soon as I walked in the door of His Home he tells me he is taking me to the spa because I need a facial...I was like HOT DIGGITY...Is it that bad! LOL! (guess what, I have never had such an expensive and exquisite facial experience prior to this day). This Experience truly made me so very relaxed, I fell asleep and even drooled just a little bit! LOL! I had an amazing (impromptu for me) 90 minute experience; the woman explained everything to me about my skin and the techniques she used as well as the products and the quality. She was so very nice and before I briefly fell asleep we talked about each other's place of birth and New York experience. I highly recommend this business and spa and please, definitely be free to spend your money and your time...so worth it! And BABY, I AM WORTH IT! Thanks Cuz for the treat on YOUR SPECIAL DAY! I LOVE LOVE! THANK YOU! read more

I agree with the other 2-star and 3-star reviews - this is not a luxury spa experience. Given Ling Spa's reputation and prices for high-quality services, I was expecting to feel pampered and relaxed, but unfortunately this was not the case. Firstly the therapist for my 90-minute WOW facial, didn't ask me any questions about my skin issues or concerns, nor did she explain what she was doing or the products being used. She seemed totally disinterested and bored with her job. My biggest gripe was that she left the room on 3 separate occasions for a total of at least 25 -30 minutes yet did not offer a hand massage or shoulder massage as most comparable spas do. I was just left laying there in a small, stuffy room, feeling neglected. Yes, my skin felt moisturized after the treatment, however I felt tense, uptight and very disappointed at the lacklustre experience. read more

I have had many facials in the past but this experience was the best. Estal was my esthetician and at her suggestion, I decided to choose their 90-minute Radio Frequency Facial. She made me feel very comfortable, she took her time, was gentle and she was very thorough. She gave me the most comfortable facial massage and the least painful pore cleansing experience. I highly recommend Ling Spa and Estal read more

amazing! have been coming for 7 years and had completely transformed my skin. Always very thorough and detailed, have been to both the union sq and uws locations read more

Been going here consistently for 7 years! They really know how to treat my skin and has helped with all my issues.

Great facial and very specific to what my skin needs. Starting going to see Michiko and so far so good! I would recommend this spa for a facial - high quality products. read more

I've been coming here every few months for the past few years and service has been nothing short of amazing! Gentle extractions and cooling masks make each experience super relaxing, I've definitely fallen asleep in the chair during multiple visits read more

Had the WOW signature facial with Ellis. She gave an incredible massage and did a thorough skin analysis and treatment (including detailed extractions that minimized redness). My skin was glowing afterwards. Definitely planning to come back! read more

I have been going to Ling Spa since March of 2023 and this is my second visit. Always a pleasure seeing Michiko and the service is always gratifying. Blessings, Lisa read more

This was my first time going to this spa. It was highly recommended by a friend. The place is neat and clean. The people there were extremely nice and friendly. The price of the services are reasonable. I love that they are not pushy with the service or products that they show you at the end. Ann was extremely friendly and detailed on my skin concerns. She was very gentle with my acne, I did not feel the needle. It's usually painful for me. The receptionist was friendly and helpful as well. The spa was very relaxing, once you get in the room, you can change into a robe and make yourself comfortable. I will definitely be coming back here. read more

Amazing quality facials and products ! I love Ann's work she helped drastically improve my adult acne in a couple sessions with the WOW Signature Facial. I see her every two weeks to help maintain the glow. read more

I had an incredible facial with Ellis! So relaxing and healing. I highly recommend this place!

So relaxing and informative. Skin feels so lovely. Saw Deborah and loved her vibe. Can't wait to come back!

I never had an outstanding experience at a spa before, usually places leave me red with extractions that regrow...but WOW. This place is the most thorough place I've ever been to for all things skin. They cleanse each pore thoroughly but they also do it in a way where the extractions heal super fast a few days after. My favorite treatments are Cupping & Microdermabrasion. Totally recommend I bring my friends here. read more

Michiko was wonderful! She took great care of my skin & my face was left feeling super clean, smooth & refreshed!

Been coming here for over a year. Ling Spa is like an oasis the area. The estheticians (Ann and Michiko) are super friendly and knowledgeable, and most importantly, really good at their craft. read more

Great service!!! They use great products. Very relaxing and refreshing!! Highly recommend!!

Today, I went in for a Pore to Pure treatment. I discovered Ling Spa on Tiktok and had high expectations. From the moment I stepped into the spa, I was welcomed by a very kind receptionist + and the ambiance was so tranquil, it immediately put me at ease. The aesthetician that worked on my facial was Michiko. She was so so SO good (literally little to no pain from the extractions). I've gone to two facials at other places and let's just say it was painful and I did not have a good experience + it really messed up my skin. She is highly skilled at what she does. She provided recommendations for me after which I gladly took because I so badly want a routine that will help with my skin concerns. Can''t wait to see my skin heal and definitely recommend Ling Spa :)) read more

I arrived 10 minutes before my appointment and after I filled out their intake form on their ipad (why not provide this to me prior to arriving to save time and energy) the aesthetician came out to the waiting area and got me. She showed me the room and told me that she would return in a couple of minutes. My facial began at 10;07. Without going into every detail, she spent more time out of the room than in it. This is a spa yet the room does not have a sink? She constantly had to move in and out of the room to get water to remove the mask and then only to go back out of the room to prepare the next mask. Nothing relaxing about this facial. Not a massage in between the masks. This facial plus tip was $250.00. I have been getting facials and other spa treatments for 30 years. There is no going the extra mile at this Spa, nothing relaxing about this experience and clearly will never return. Too bad as I was happy to have a spa in the neighborhood. read more

Mira was wonderful!! My face is GLOWING! I recommend Ling Spa to any of my friends in the city in need of a facial!

Just saw Ann for a facial one of the best facials I have had in NYC! The whole team is super knowledgeable about the products that are best for your skin and why. Highly recommend coming here read more

This was one of the best facials I've ever had. Well worth the money. You will not be disappointed
