Ninety Minutes – Regularly $72.00 – Special $50.00 – Save $22.00!

Our hands and feet sustain a great deal of physical stress, so it’s important to take good care of them. Black currants are renowned for their high content in Vitamin C (a powerful antioxidant), GLA (Gamma-Linoleic Acid, a very rare Omega-6 essential fatty acid), and potassium. They contain twice the potassium of bananas, four times the vitamin C of oranges, and twice the antioxidants of blueberries.

Our Black Currant spa manicure and pedicure combo works wonders for relieving stress in your hands and feet, leaving these over-used extremities infused with natural anti-aging properties. Add to this, a luxurious paraffin heel bath that will moisturize even the most callused feet, and you will leave our day spa feeling like a million bucks.

Microdermabrasion Facial with Collagen Mask:

Sixty Minutes – Regularly $100.00 – Special $75.00 — Save $35.00!

Microdermabrasion treatments exfoliate, resurface, and promote new facial skin cells for a younger, clearer complexion. Paired with our collagen mask, which hydrates and improves the skin’s elasticity, you will receive one of the most highly regarded anti-aging treatments.

Jelly Pedicure with Regular Manicure:

Seventy-five Minutes – Regularly $47.00 – Special $35.00 – Save 25%!

A Jelly Pedicure is a marvelous, innovative footbath treatment for tired feet made from a special blend of essential plant oils including the extracts of aloe vera and ginseng. When added to hot water, the powdered ingredients produce a lightly aromatic gelatinous mixture, which retains the heated water temperature up to four times longer than just hot water. Your feet benefit enormously from soaking in this healing mixture.

This special includes a regular manicure – which is anything but regular. Prior to shaping and buffing your nails, we use a special hot cream, European Lactol, to moisturize your hands and strengthen your nails. Then your cuticles are soaked, and cut or pushed back to lengthen the nail bed. If you want your nails polished, we apply a base coat before applying the polish of your choice, followed by a long-lasting top coat.

Pomegranate Red Apple Full Body Scrub: Thirty minutes for only $40 dollars

For a full, gentle, and natural exfoliation of the body, try our Pomegranate Red-Apple Full Body Scrub body treatment. We use the purest cane sugar combined with potent antioxidants derived from organic red apple juice and pomegranate juice. After this treatment, your skin will be deliciously smooth and delectably radiant.

Ninety minutes – Regularly $50.00 – Save $10.00!

Get your after summer recovery facial at Dyanna Spa in Manhattan, New York

Now that summer is winding down, it’s time to get your after summer recovery facial at Dyanna Spa in Manhattan, New York. After the drying effects from the heat of summer, salty ocean water and air, and over exposure to the sun, the need for facial skin care is essential.

Dryness robs the skin of much-needed moisture needed to maintain a healthy, youthful look. It can cause skin to feel and look tight, rough, and aged. It can also result in rashes and other facial blemishes.

Most of our clients come in not knowing which facial treatment they should request. At our day spa, we have facials for every skin type. Our expert cosmetologists determine which skin care facial is best for each individual.

Our Manhattan, New York facials for men, women, and teens work to prevent, protect, and reverse damaged skin. A few of our facial services are listed below.

• Dyanna Spa’s “European Facial” is great for any skin type. It involves a thorough cleansing and exfoliation of the skin to clean out the pores, followed by a mask and moisturizing treatment to rehydrate and reinvigorate facial skin.
• Our “Hydra 4 Sensitive Skin Facial by Repechage” is great for stressed-out skin. Its olive oil and olive leaf extracts provide antioxidant protection, and the nourishing seaweed helps the skin retain much-needed moisture.
• Our “Deep Pore Cleansing” facial includes white and black head extraction and cleans out other impurities in the skin.
• “Diamond Microdermabrasion” exfoliates and the skin, removing all dried cells. The result is the formation of new, smooth skin.
• Our “Glycolic Treatment” is a great anti-aging facial that treats age spots, and dry, rough skin with the active ingredient AHA.
• One of our more exotic facials is the “24KT Gold Facial” skin care treatment. It rejuvenates the skin, improves blood circulation, and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
• Our “Sheep Placenta Facial” is the ultimate anti-aging anti-oxidant treatment containing iron, enzymes, amino acids, and minerals that are perfect for facial skin care.

You can be sure you are in good hands at Dyanna’s day spa. We were voted the “best of NYC” for NY facial treatments and skin care by Citysearch in 2009 and 2010. With 25 years of experience, our professional estheticians will help you with any skin problems you may have.

Get rejuvenated and check out all of our facials for men, women, and teens at Dyanna Body & Nail Salon.

Reinvigorating Facials to Get You Through the New York City Summer Heat

Summer Facials in Manhattan New York.

Get rid of summer grime, sweat and get back your glowing healthy skin at Dyanna Spa in Manhattan, NYC! As we enter the peak of the summer, there’s one thing that’s surely not slowing down any time soon…the sweltering heat and humidity that surrounds us day in and day out. As lovely as the ease of breezy weather can be at times, we may not realize the damages its doing to our skin.

Humidity causes our sweat glands to produce more oil than normal and because the layer of humidity prevents the sweat from evaporating into the air, it clings to skin creating a thick build up of oil which clogs pores and causes breakouts. What’s worse is that sometimes our daily cleansers aren’t powerful enough to truly remove all the grease. Yuck! At Dyanna Spa we offer a variety of facials specifically designed to reinvigorate and completely clear skin from whatever looms beneath the surface. With half of summer remaining, its time to regain your radiance and let your skin do the talking this season.

• Deep Pore Cleansing Facial ($85 / 60 Minutes): The Deep Pore Cleansing Facial is perfect for the hot sticky weather and is a great option for all skin types. This facial is a thorough deep-pore cleansing facial that focuses on the extraction of white heads and black heads as well as other acne and impurities in the skin.  The aesthetician first cleanses and purifies the skin prior to deep pore extrapolation, and then applies a soothing mask to moisturize and revive the skin, resulting in smooth grime-free glowing skin.

• Peeling Facial ($65 / 60 Minutes) : For a truly rejuvenating experience, the Peeling Facial at Dyanna Spa is the perfect choice. This professional deep exfoliation uses vegetable and fruit enzymes to free your face of tired, dull surface skin cells leaving behind a fresh layer of skin that can take years off your overall look. Perfect for achieving effortless healthy skin.

• Acne Prone/Problem Skin Facial ($85 / 60 Minutes) : This deep pore cleansing procedure is a perfect facial for those who are prone to acne and problematic seasonal skin. The facial incorporates Active Propolis and Blemish Control Mask as well as a Mud Mask to resolve your skin’s problems. Extractions of oils and dirt inside of pores are performed when/where necessary and a healing module is utilized to assist the closure of any open or infected areas on the face.  For best results, a series of visits is recommended. Speak with your aesthetician to find out if this treatment is right for you or for more details.

ADD COLLAGEN EYE TREATMENT AND/OR NECK FIRMING TREATMENT TO ANY FACIAL FOR $15 EACH!

• Collagen Eye Treatment: The Collagen Eye Treatment is a great way to reduce the fine wrinkles and bags that form around the eyes as a result of aging, stress, and weather conditions such as humidity. This quick procedure adds firming collagen to the skin which can instantly reduce signs of aging and puffiness around the eyes.

• Neck Firming Treatment: The Neck Firming Treatment at Dyanna Spa is a perfect added touch of relaxation to any facial. This treatment firms, lifts, and moisturizes the neck leaving you looking and feeling more rejuvenated with each treatment.

Natural Products Ensure Natural Beauty at New York’s Dyanna Spa

As a top New York spa, we know how important it is to keep up our reputation and continue to bring the best products and services for nail care, waxing, facials and massages to all of our clients. That’s why when we found out studies have shown that beauty products such as body oils, body waxes, face-wipes and the like frequently use chemicals and synthetic materials to add a pleasant fragrance to their products, we realized that’s something we won’t stand for at Dyanna.

More often than not, the exact chemical ingredients included in these non-natural beauty products are not listed in detail on the product casing.  Users thereby remain unaware of the harmful side-effects which these products could potentially have on their skin. The pores that make up every inch of our body need to have constant contact with clean air in order to breathe properly and thereby retain their natural glow.  However, the toxic materials added to supply odor to many non-organic substances can actually block our pores and obstruct that clean supply of air from entering our skin.

At Dyanna Spa, we recognize that natural products are of utmost importance when dealing with skin-care.  Our entire selection of creams, moisturizers, oils and the like are carefully chosen to ensure that any treatment which your body receives at Dyanna Spa will leave you feeling rejuvenated and cleansed in every way.  From face-masks to foot creams, your skin will encounter only top-of-the-line all-natural ingredients, including herb extracts, vitamins from plants and minerals and fragrances emanating from fruit peels – allowing you to experience maximum health benefits after each spa visit!

Do you ever wonder how flower and plant extracts are converted into essential oils safe to use on skin?  The process is a long and carefully crafted one in which the exact location in a plant which contains the most highly concentrated mineral content will be extracted and distilled, using advanced steam or water distillation techniques.  The raw healthy materials that remain are then inserted into the lotion or cleanser that you apply onto your skin – thus allowing you to nurture your skin with the same healthy ingredients you aim to give your body!

Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas from New York’s Top Rated Spa

Lovers, it’s that time of year again; Valentine’s Day is fast approaching. This year don’t go for the overdone box of chocolates or bunch of roses and instead treat your loved one to something they’ll really enjoy: a pampering session at NYC’s favourite spa, Dyanna Spa. From a single spa treatment to an hour of relaxation to a full on day of pampering, we have the ideal Valentine’s Day gift for everyone.

 

For Her

A manicure is an instant mood booster but Dyanna Spa’s Deep Dermal Transforming Manicure Wrap Treatment ($35) takes it one step further by promising to reverse signs of aging on the hands. The miraculous 45 minute treatment promotes skin cell rejuvenation and  consists of a new intense formula that brings moisture to a deep level of the dermis and smooths the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in the hands .

Or, you could treat her entire body to an indulgent Dyanna Spa treatment with the Pomegranate Red-Apple Full Body Scrub ($60). Pure cane sugar with potent anti-oxidants derived from organic Pomegranate juice and organic Red Apple create a gentle, natural exfoliation that leaves the skin deliciously smooth and delectably radiant.

For Him

Men are much less likely than women to treat themselves to a Spa treatment which is why it makes the ideal Valentine’s Day gift and one he’ll truly remember and enjoy.

Dyanna Spa’s Seaweed Treatment with Seaweed Mask ($80 for an hour’s treatment) is rich in vitamins, minerals and amino acids and your man’s express ticket to a beautiful radiant complexion.

If you want to pamper his whole body, treat him to the Sea Spa Glow ($45) which helps remove dull, dry accumulation of dead skin cells (hardly a romantic thought but he’ll look, and feel, all the better for it!). The relaxing treatment naturally exfoliates with Dead Sea Salts, Triple Mint & Olive Oil and will leave his skin feeling energized and refreshed.

Whether for men or women, a massage is the classic relaxation treatment and makes for the ideal Valentine’s Day gift. Treat him to a Deep Tissue Massage to relieve stress and sports related muscle tension or a Swedish Massage to improve blood flow and release toxins from muscles. Or, if you can’t decide which he might prefer, Dyanna Spa comes to the rescue with their unique combination of the two in a Fusion Massage ($80 for 1 hour) which combines techniques from both Deep Tissue Massage,  Swedish Massage and Reflexology to provide the ultimate in relaxation and wellbeing.

Don’t Let This Hot NYC Summer Ruin Your Complexion: Come to Dyanna Body & Nail Spa’s For One of New York’s Best Facials!

It’s been a long and hot summer here in New York, so keeping up with your beauty regiment has never been more important.  With this excessive heat and humidity, it would be no shock to learn that you may be having trouble controlling your blemishes.  Pores all over the beautiful isle of Manhattan have endured an excruciating summer that has been filled with humidity, sweat, and other oils that leave your pores clogged and unsightly. For this reason, the time has come for a refreshing facial from one of the best spa’s in NYC: Dyanna Body & Nail Spa.

Although you may not realize it, it is just as important to get regular facials in the summer as it is in the winter.  During the winter your skin is prone to getting dried out and cracking but in the summer you’re skin will be subjected to the complete opposite. When it’s hot out your skin produces oils and your glands secrete sweat that you generally don’t even have to think about in the winter.  In general, regular facials offer so many benefits for your skin that regardless of the season you should treat the most exposed portion of your body with a little respect.

Here at Dyanna, we ensure that every facial will give your skin the glow and luster the environment strips away. The exfoliation can help rid the buildup of cracked skin around your nose and mouth and give another layer of skin the chance to shine! All facial products used by the Dyanna’s aestheticians deliver powerful therapy, revitalizing your skin and spirit, and further enhancing the feeling of well-being. Your skin and contours will be left soft, fresh, vibrant and youthful.

Here are two great facials for reversing the summer time damage!

ACNE/PROBLEM SKIN FACIAL WITH ACTIVE PROPOLIS AND BLEMISH CONTROL MASK

The Acne/Problem Skill Facial with Active Propolis  and Blemish Control Mask is a deep pore cleansing procedure. Extractions are performed when necessary and healing module is utilized to assist closure of any open or infected areas. Service is accomplished in a series of visits.

DEEP PORE CLEANSING FACIAL

The Deep Pore Cleansing Facial combines all the benefits of deep pore cleansing which removes white heads, black heads and other acne impurities. With your new pore-free face your skin will be begging to experience the sun without all that foundation, just don’t forget the SPF!

What is Microdermabrasion? Diamond Microdermabrasion Vs. Crystal

What is Microdermabrasion?

A lot of our customers that frequent Dyanna Body & Nail Spa in New York City– have been asking about what Microdermabrasion actually is. We see products with this word in the title, we see celebrities talking about it, but very few know what the procedure actually involves, how it is done, and what the different types are.

In short, Microdermabrasion is the application of tiny rough grains to buff away the surface layer of skin.

According to SkinAbrasion.net “Your skin is made up of two main layers, the epidermis and the dermis. The epidermis is the layer closest to the outside world. It’s a set of dead skin cells on top of another layer of cells that are in the process of maturing. The topmost layer is called the stratum corneum. The stratum corneum mostly acts as a barrier between the outside world and the lower skin layers. It keeps all but the smallest molecules from getting through. This layer is home to many minor skin imperfections like fine wrinkles and blemishes.”

If you remove or break up the stratum corneum, the body translates this as a mild injury and quickly replaces the lost skin cells with new, healthy ones. In the first hour after treatment, this may cause mild swelling and redness. Depending on the person, these side effects can last from an hour to two days- so it’s important to note that you should not perform a microdermabrasion treatment the day of an important event.

The benefits of Microdermabrasion:

• With the upper skin layer gone, the skin’s surface is visibly improved.
• The healing process creates newer skin cells that look and feel smoother.
• Some of the skin’s imperfections, like sun damage, blemishes and fine lines, are removed.
• Also, without this top layer serving as a barrier, medicinal creams and lotions are much more effective with more of their active ingredients able to find their way down to the lower layers of skin.

There are 2 kinds of Microdermabrasion techniques that are commonly used: the Crystal and the Diamond method. The crystal method has been known to be a bit rougher on the skin and for that reason the staff at Dyanna Spa in Gramercy Park Salon, NY ONLY uses the Diamond Microdermabrasion method.

Some Benefits of Diamond vs. Crystal Microdermabrasion:

The regular crystal micro microdermabrasion technology involves the use of a special, hand-held device that propels a high-speed flow of aluminum oxide crystals onto the skin. At the same time, the machine’s vacuum system sucks away dirt, dead cells and used crystals.

The diamond microdermabrasion system, on the other hand, replaces the micro-crystal flow with a disposable or reusable diamond tip wand. Areas closer to the eyes and mouth can be abraded more accurately with diamond abrasion (no risk of stray crystals causing damage or being ingested). Diamond microdermabrasion machines usually come with tipped wands of varied size and coarseness for different skin types and depths of resurfacing. The wand tip is made of natural diamond chips which polish the skin and remove dead cells, which are then vacuumed back into a waste filter. These natural diamond tips are easier to control and don’t irritate the skin (natural minerals are less likely to trigger adverse reactions).

Diamond Microdermabrasion at Dyanna Spa:

To see if microdermabrasion is right for you, feel free to schedule an appointment with one of your expert aestheticians at: Http://dyannaspa.com

Dyanna Body & Nail Salon has been voted Best Spa of NYC and Best of NYC for facials. We are located in the heart of Manhattan in the Gramercy Park/ Flatiron area and are easily reachable by train, bus, taxi, or car:
