Spa: Launa Stone Med-Spa and Anti-Aging Clinic

Registered Nurse Launa Stone has opened a beautiful new facility in Calabasas, CA, called the Launa Stone Med-Spa and Anti-Aging Clinic, where she is offering a vast range of anti-aging and beautification treatments. Having assembled a crack team of professionals, such as experienced estheticians Cheri Moi and Sarah Harpaz, as well as Gina Borggrebe for laser hair removal, and Botox and filler expert Rachael Chambers, Launa has made her Med-Spa and Anti-Aging Clinic a one-stop shop with a staggering variety of ways to help you look and feel more beautiful.

As soon as you enter Launa’s bright and airy facility, you will be impressed by the open and tranquil environment, featuring soothing ocean-colored aquamarine stones and crystallized “pebble” glass accents. There is a cozy lounge area with a coffee and tea bar, and a mini-boutique featuring one-of-a-kind accessories and skincare products. She even offers some pharmaceutical-grade products that are otherwise only available to doctors.

Launa Stone’s motto is, “When safety, effectiveness, and results matter the most, come to the experts!” In addition to her highly-trained staff, Launa’s clinic is outfitted with state-of-the-art equipment that is unsurpassed by any other Med-Spa in the West Valley.

Their signature treatment, the “Dripping with Diamonds” deluxe facial ($150), is one that is seriously results-driven. They start with a DiamondTone microdermabrasion session that efficiently and thoroughly exfoliates your entire face. This treatment is followed by a full face Hydra-Facial that cleans deep into your pores, using a light and watery suction tool, leaving you feeling refreshed and sparkling. They complete this therapeutic facial with some soothing creams and a gentle décolletage massage. By the end of this hour-long treatment, you’ll wonder why you ever bothered with any other kind of facial before now. A glance in the mirror the next day at your smooth, soft, and hydrated skin will confirm your satisfaction.

As Stone explains, “My ‘Dripping With Diamonds’ facial is truly the most effective treatment, requiring no downtime and providing the longest lasting results. Diamonds for exfoliation and Hydra-Facial for infusing serums – an all-in-one treatment!”

In addition to facials, Launa and her staff offer many personal-care services including laser hair removal, botox injections, Juvederm and Restylane, Intense Pulsed Light, detox beds, galvanic spa treatments, acupuncture, chemical peels, deep-tissue massage, laser skin treatments, medical dermatology, microdermabrasion, permanent makeup, plastic surgery, skin exfoliation, eyebrow shaping – the list goes on!

Launa’s longtime experience as a registered nurse in the beauty industry includes ten years assisting and working for several leading Beverly Hills plastic surgeons, including Dr. Harry Glassman, Dr. Larry Koplin, Dr. Gary Tearston, and Dr. Norman Leaf.

Launa Stone, R.N., and Dr. Darren Clair.

Thanks to her years of honing her expertise, Launa demonstrates a light, efficient, and thorough approach with her laser-hair removal technique. She gave my underarms such a careful and systematic going over that I almost feel I don’t need to return, after only one laser treatment. The hair-growing cycle was exhaustively explained to me, however, so of course I will be going back to complete the procedure.

Packages for a series of laser hair removal are generally priced at $275 for laser on new areas. This grants you a series of visits, returning every four to six weeks depending upon which area. For example, for chin and upper lip laser hair removal or underarm hair removal, if you purchase a $275 package, that entitles you to four to six treatments over a course of several months.

An important member of Stone’s expert staff is Darren Clair, MD, a pioneer in the field of Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy. Dr. Clair is the Medical Director on the premises and sees patients for hormonal balancing, weight loss, vitamin supplementation, and neurotransmitter balancing.

You can also enjoy complimentary and discounted services such as $50 Microdermabrasion and Hydra-Facials and half price on the detox Weight Loss Bed and Chi Machine. Wine and raffle prizes add to the excitement.
