Oooohhhh.. ahhh... My guilty pleasure. Not only do I enjoy coming here for a spa like experience but I come for the nitty gritty down right to the dirt stuff. Sheila is awesome and Tom what a great soul. Sheila gets her hands dirty (pun intended) when she's about her stuff. Explains everything and knowledgeable bot to mention delightful company. I always recommend. I normally do the regular facial with a few little new things here and there. They have a skin hydro bar up front with great options of skin care products to take home. Always two thumbs up! read more

Skin Institute - Skin Care Near Me - Miami, Florida

This place is awesome. My boyfriend treated me to a spa day there. Had a great massage by Tom and a wonderful facial from Shelia. They were very friendly. They have this cool infared sauna. I've never been in one before, this was really really cool (warm actually) I got some good products too that they make. If you get the chance, you really deserve to treat yourself to some relaxation. read more

I have known Sheila and Tom for almost close to a decade now. I've learned so much about my skin from Sheila and about the fact that old school WORK ETHICS still exists in this world. So much so is my trust in her that she now takes care of my 13 year old son's skin (sensitive skin and eczema since he was 6 weeks old). Honestly, I read this B.S. about the location, and all I hear is Miami pretentious crap! It's about quality and true care for your clients needs what's going on here people! There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with the location. Maybe for those who do not understand the worth in true client care (having work myself in the health system for almost 20 years).... Maybe you should stick to the pompous, overpriced Miami style waste of money, "But OMG it's so pretty!" SPA CRAP EXPERIENCE. If you want TRUE knowledgeable care by wonderful people, then call Sheila & Tom and make your appt! Then we can talk!!! read more

Staff here is great! My bf and I bought groupons for the citrus body scrub which left us silky smooth!! At first I was a little worried by the look of the building and the location but the experience turned out to be a great one!! Tom is very nice and very informative! read more

Love Sheila! She absolutely changed my skin. I came to her looking for a solution for my cystic acne and 8+ years later I still have clear skin. She is a true professional and is so knowledgeable. Her products are also amazing and she does not push them on you. I can't say enough good things about her and her services. And to the person who suggested that people are getting paid to post positive reviews you are clearly miserable. Just because you did not have a memorable experience don't make it look like others didn't. You can't make everyone happy all of the time. I appreciate a negative review about a business but actually claiming that others are getting paid is ridiculous. Anyways, I will continue supporting this local business because at the end of the day it may not be the fanciest location but the work speaks for itself. read more

Initially I called looking for a school to get a cheap facial. When I spoke to Shiela, she convinced me to come in for a facial. Since than, I have been coming here for years. Even when I moved to 4 hrs away, I used to drive here just for a facial. Shiela will educated you about your skin, food intake, etc. She will than give you a goodie bag before you leave with products which will last you for about 2-3 weeks. The prices are very reasonable. I will never let anyone else touch my face. Thank you Shiela and Crew!!!! read more

Ive been going here for my facials for over 9 years and since i moved to san francisco, i made an extra effort to have a facial here again while in town. As always, they didnt disappoint. My husband and i were both treated to the best facials weve had in a long while. We have tried several places in san francisco and none even came close to this one, even the fancy, haughty-taughty clinics. Consistent quality and exceptional service. They always have the latest high tech devices. I tried microneedling this time and felt a marked difference in my skin (definitely beats microdermabrasion). This place is my church! read more

I had to do a pre cancerous treatment on my face that was very painful. it made my skin raw and chaffed. i used Vitamin E Recovery Complex from Skin Institute for two week... it was like a miracle ! Everyday day my skin got better and better. Now my skin looks like a 30 year old. (i am 58!) I am now using it every night as a moisturizer (i have very dry skin). it is truly amazing! read more

I have been going to this hidden gem for years. They recently revamped the entire spa and it looks wonderful! I went to Skin Institute bc my cousin recommended the spa and God I am so thankful I met the owner Sheila. I live in NYC but i vacation in Miami at least 5x a year and Sheila saved my skin! I cannot thank the staff at Skin Institute enough! I have sensitive skin and I very hesitant to have anyone touch let alone work on my skin but Sheila truly is a miracle worker. She started out with a basic mircoderm -she told me everything she was doing any why. She didn't push any products (but i ended up with a cleaners and moisturizer to start) and i went back 5 days later and did a fancy mask treatment. I swear by these products and their treatments they offer. I LOVE this spa it honestly is a hidden gem! THANK YOU SKIN INSTITUTE FOR SAVING MY SKIN AND MY SELF ESTEEM! read more

Sheila and Tom are the Gurus of great looking skin. Their friendliness, the professionalism of their facility along with the quality of their products make this money well spent. The Vitamin A serum that Sheila gave me works miracles overnight. The best thing is she just doesnt work on your skin, she educate you. I wish I could put 10 stars. read more

Omg the service was amazing! This was my first facial ever and I can't wait to come back. Shelia and Tom are so friendly! Shelia educated me about my skin and gave the right products to use going forward. I wish I could give this service 10 stars. read more

I just needed to add an update....went back for a second visit & it was even better then the first. Sheila is a maestro of skin!! No one else in Miami offers what she does. The nano-needling results now just a few days later are amazing. My fine lines are greatly diminished & I look like I had Botox but no.....I am a fan & highly recommend her read more

Little tricky to get inside. Once you get in there the place is great!:) Wonderful very knowledgeable staff who have trained other aestheticians. Sheila and Tom are very nice. you can tell they love what they do. i ended up getting a regular facial with a mandelic peel (which is great) & didnt burn or anything, I've also gotten the mesotherapy treatment and my skin feels great! I've heard MANY good reviews on them from people that i know. if you have anything wrong with your skin or you just want something anti aging, this is the place! i will keep going back for sure! THANK YOU!! read more

The service is good, but the building is so disgusting. I was on my way there and for a second I thought about turning around and leaving. The place is a little too small in my opinion... But ewwww the building. read more

Not what you expect in regards to environment but it was okay. Umm, facial was mediocre but the staff was very pleasant. My extractions hurt because the gentleman was inflicting too much pressure. I will give them another try. read more

Terrible customer service. The mold is very strong in the bathroom. My son and I got very dizzy and departed early. Please remove the mold problem! read more

for those that expect to pull upto to some resort spa,it ain't happening and it's a shame that some reviewers are so ignorant that they can't look past that.this gem is tucked away in what seems like a residential building that also happens to have some business offices.There's a reason why the Skin Institute wins Best Facial in the Miami New Times Best of every year! Sheila is the absolute best to go to for all of your skin care needs.i had not been to her in ages and decided I was due for a facial before the year ended.If you don't go to the right place for extractions,you can end up with scars on your face but not here! When I got out I wasn't swollen or red at all and the next morning my skin was glowing. As a vegetarian who is passionate about green living and natural skin products,I always enjoy chatting with Sheila cause she always gives great advice on what to use and not use.She has decades of experience and is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about what she does,that's what sets her apart from all of these shitty esthecians who are just after your money and leave you with a messed up face.Do your skin a favor and go visit Sheila! read more

Shiela and her son Tom both do amazing things to keep me looking young. Their prices are very fair. They are not afraid to try new things.. I go once a month and I definitely look younger than my actual age. Facials and skin care are not just for women anymore, they are for anyone wanting to have younger looking skin. read more

These great reviews can not be real. I got a facial and micro-dermabrasion for my husband and I. Not only was it painful but we left with our face looking like we had chicken pox. I've had tons of facials and never came out looking like that. I should have known better once I pulled up to that ugly broken down building. Oh and yes they give free tiny samples but the products are terrible. I would not recommend this place at all!! read more

I had a citrus scrub and body wrap at the Skin Institute and, based on the glowing reviews I read, I was expecting good things. Unfortunately my experience did not live up to my expectations. Perhaps the institute is best for facials, because the scrub was very disappointing. Maybe it was my mistake because I preferred a female technician. I think she was a facialist because this was not an exfoliating scrub, but rather a soft, gentle, quick massage. When my back was to be done, rather than turning over on my stomach, I had to sit up for the quick, cursory back once over. I could not really tell the difference between the scrub and the shea butter applied after the scrub. Also I was disappointed that the 60 minutes included the 15 minutes in the sauna and the 15 minutes in the wrap. Perhaps, if you are going to try the scrub, you should stick with the male technicians if you are comfortable with that. I purchased this through Groupon, and truly it was not worth the $29 + $18 tip. Though the hallway of the building has a strong musty/mildew odor, it is not noticeable once you enter the spa which is very clean (though very tiny, yet "cozy"). They do give you to keep slippers, a t-shirt and a bottle of water. read more

this place is a rare gem in miami. both sheila and tom are great with customers. the real key your getting here is they run a great business, they care about their customers and most of all sheila is on the cutting edge with her facials. she knows what you need and what to use, without telling her. one of the most experienced, sweet ladies in the skin care industry. so if your looking for a great facial at fair prices, call and make an appointment you won't be disappointed. read more
