LICENSED ESTHETICIAN - SAN JOSE, CA
Maricela received her California State License as an esthetician in 2011 in Southern California where she began her career teaching at an advanced esthetic school. She was able to help students with facials, techniques, chemical peels & different modalities. However, as a master with facial massages, she taught the technique for lymphatic drainage massages.
Maricela’s passion in skin care is driven by results. She understands every patient is different and takes the time to recommend a treatment plan specifically for the patient. The biggest compliment is when someone can see the improvement in their skin which can be life changing for many. For Maricela, hearing those stories from patients is what it is all about.

Mari was very responsive and welcoming. She reviewed my skin concerns and discussed options and treatment plan. The facial itself was very relaxing and my skin feels amazing! Excited to see her again soon!

I had an amazing experience with Mari! It was my first facial (I'm 29) and Mari took her time and educated me through the process. It was extremely relaxing. I love the ambiance Mari creates for her clients. The music, the lighting, the candles all provide a relaxing experience. I have had problematic skin most of my life and I'm getting married soon. My biggest fear is having horrible skin the day of. Mari gave me a sample of spot cream to help with a pimple if I feel it coming on - which I appreciate. What I liked most- is when I reached out to Mari, she assessed what she thought could be the problem with my skin and gave me an in-depth solution of what she thought could help. It made me feel at ease and confident prior to going to my appointment. I am definitely a fan and will be following up with my fiance for another appointment before our wedding! :) I came home and he was so impressed with how my skin looked he said he wanted to get one too lol.

I had my first facial with Mari and I loved it!! The facial felt wonderful and the extractions were painless. I didn’t even know she was doing it. My skin looked so smooth and felt so firm. I’m a skincare minimalist and Mari recommended only the products that I would use, no upselling. I’ve already booked my next appointment.

It was a great experience and the place is clean and fully sanitized before each client. This makes me comfortable getting facial with Maricela during the pandemic. She is warm, attentive and professional. My skin can breath again. I can’t wait to go back for my next facial!

Maricela seemed knowledgeable, explained every step of the facial, didn't try to upsell and took her time. I enjoyed the facial and will be going back to her.
