Ventura Boulevard
What do people search for on the Internet? Women usually search for spa services and men type in massage. That’s what I think at least.
I was just over the hill for a doctors appointment and I realized how happy I am in the valley. I don’t understand why anyone would want to look for street parking and fight the traffic at the same time.
Other than the best hairdresser on the planet Chassi at Cush Salon, I just can’t think of driving up Laurel Canyon to Robertson for any other reason.
Best stores on the Boulevard
We almost got washed away by the city’s lovely underground pipes but it’ll take a bigger explosion to get rid of our block. We’re very excited to get Le Pain back…we’re counting the days.
Yoga, Sushi and Crossroads “Recycled” clothing is about all I need to survive. Oh and Lulus coffee shop. What would we do without you? We depend on you when we’re starving!
The Counter has the best burgers in the world. “We think they add something special to it”….says Emo. If you can’t make it to Paris then I suggest California Canteen restaurant. Lynne and Tina time always. I think we’ve been canteening for about 13 years now. Yum!
I got off track for a bit, food does that to me. Come in for a tour of Belle Visage Day spa. We’d love to show you around.

for the love of zen!
Finally we’re bringing massage treatments back to BV.
We won’t stop the focus on Cutting edge treatments but we need some zen again:)
Life’s short when you’re having fun but long when you’re bored. Well, For the love of fun then so shall be it! Not long ago I lost my best friend and realized that I don’t like all these rules we live by. Don’t do this, Don’t do that…why not? ….I say do it and Have fun at it . If you want to get a massage because you’re hunched over your computer for 15 hours a day, then do it. Who says you shouldn’t? When drastic changes occur in life, you don’t procrastinate anymore. You book a trip far in advance so you don’t deprive yourself from the “good things” in life. I’m happy I never say no to Tina time. BUT, I used to. My suggestion is to take the time & book your massage. It’s great to have something to look forward to. Enjoy life and keep smiling. Love… Tina K

Couples massage treatments in Studio City!
With all of the options today, we find that bringing back clean massage rooms and couples massage rooms are in demand. I went to a Thai massage place a week ago to see what the hype was. The lady was very sweet but they placed me on a dirty thin mattress that smelled like rancid oil. I can understand that people are looking to save money nowadays but at a certain point my inner hypochondriac kicks in.
I then realized my neck was stiff… turned to the side since I was laying on the floor. Try turning your neck to the side when it cramps…just to turn it yet again!
All of the sudden I had a thought…. to bring Massage back!
Our rooms are beautiful with top of the line Earthlite tables. As of November 15th, our Private Showers will be going back into Belle Visage. Does that make you happy? you should see the smile on my face while I’m typing:)
Here’s my analogy. You can pay 12 -15 dollars to get a quick manicure or another 5 dollars to get a relaxing 1 hour manicure at Belle Visage day spa. It’s all about what we need. Time isn’t always on our side and we need to jump in and out of treatments, yet other times we need to stop and smell the roses. Same goes for our massage and facial treatments. Quality is of importance to our staff and customer service is always on top of the list.
Deep tissue massage. Hot Stone massage. Pregnancy massage. Couples massage. Sports massage. Swedish massage

facial treatment at Belle Visage
Advanced Skincare treatments
Los Angeles has more variety than New York when it comes to cutting edge treatments. I flew to NY a couple years a go to find out that NY Aestheticians had never heard of dermaplaning .
Dead skin is what bugs us Angelenos , so the way to go about it is to slough it off.
Many people use acid peels, microdermabrasion or dermaplaning to get the best results. I always suggest booking a facial to remove the congestion first ,then have your aesthetician decide what will be the most effective treatment for your skin.
We have wonderful facialists, massage therapists, nurses and a great nail team.
European facials and Body Massage.
Good technicians come from a healthy work environment. Its important to walk into a spa and feel the ambiance. We recommend people walking in and taking a mini tour.
We have a couples massage room that is beautiful and unisex. We have great massage therapists that don’t just stretch you but work out your muscles to relieve you of your tension.
Belle Visage Day spa is located in Studio City near Coldwater and Ventura. Enjoy a facial and manicure and walk to Le Pain for an organic lunch. Call us at 818 907 0502 if you have any questions.

best treatment for cellulite
Cellulite Wraps that work!
This treatment isn’t just a body wrap, it includes essential oils and plant extracts from Switzerland and I actually went to Geneva to check it out.
I traveled from Paris to Geneva hoping to find the perfect product lab “Paul Scerri”.
Mr. Paul Scerri is an amazing man. He met me at a restaurant and before heading out to his lab… we grabbed some wine and relaxed a bit. This Lab is unbelievable. It’s not a corporate lab you’ll find in LA or NY but a wholesome family lab operated with Love.
The plant extract Vats are Paul’s pride and joy. His extensive research has paid off! Paul and his family are devoted to his creation. I was so impressed! Mind you, I’ve used his products since I was 13 years old and if you read my bio, I really dd have some skin issues back then.
It was well worth the trip. He explained how the extracts detox the body like no other product line. Well, I’m a skeptic so I had to try it and see for myself.
all I needed was one treatment and I knew that this isn’t your basic cellulite line that every one sells on the market. This is it my friends. This detox works whether you have cellulite, a hangover or if you’re a bit under the weather.
Full Body Detox treatments for Cellulite!
You’ll absolutely see a difference & feel it for days after. How many treatments does one need? It really depends on the severity of the cellulite. My clients loved it so much that I don’t remember if anyone even kept count. We incorporate lymphatic drainage massage with essential oils & plant extracts. This treatment is 90 minutes of sheer relaxation. Book an appointment today or buy a gift certificate for someone you love:)

Dysport injections in Los Angeles
Not really, but it sure is effective. Our staff was injected yesterday and boy did it kick into gear fast.
As of recent,I heard that some people just have been “botoxing” for so long that it doesn’t make a difference on their face needing more units to relax the muscle. So here’s your cure to the little lines on your face. We can minimize it for you 6 days a week. They say it lasts longer than botox but I’ll let you know in October 09. By the way, it’s been around for many years in Europe but it just made it to the States.
All the same botox rules apply, don’t lay down till 3 hours after the procedure. Don’t go to the gym right after and just take it easy. You may get a little bruise like any other injectable but that has to do with your skin…a pinpoint bruise.
Belle Visage Medical Spa in Studio City offers Dysport now!
Well, I say do it! I love skin care:) I’ve been performing facials since 16 and never thought that it would become so advance! Thanks to the wonderful Medical staff at Belle Visage. You make it a better place.

Microdermabrasion treatment in los angeles
Discoloration-Exfoliation treatments
As an aesthetician myself, I’m excited to shed some light on this subject.
Microdermabrasion is a machine that blasts crystals onto the skin for a more youthful glow. Many people have difficulty finding the right treatment for their skin condition.The average consumer usually has a hard time choosing the correct facial procedure for their needs. Here are a few tips from Belle Visage when making your treatment decision . This takes time. It’s not an overnight miracle especially since skin conditions are hereditary.
Visit Belle Visage for the Best Microdermabrasion in Los Angeles.
I recommend our Microdermabrasion machine because it’s a two step process. We first use crystals to exfoliate dead skin cells and break apart topical discoloration. The second step is the diamond tip. This is used to buff the pores for a smooth fresh surface. Many places offer one or the other but Belle Visage combines them to give our clients the most cutting edge treatments in skincare today..
Is Microdermabrasion safe?
YES, it sure is. I can only speak about Belle Visage spa equipment. I know that your skin will not only benefit from removing dead skin cells but it also stimulates your own collagen.When the top layer (Epidermis) is suctioned from the bottom layer(Dermis), your skin will naturally produce collagen.
Facial peels or Micro?
Microdermabrasion is usually for thicker skin types only because the crystals can be a bit intense for devitalized skin. Of course we can lower the intensity but don’t be surprised if we recommend a glycolic or VITALIZE peel. In Los Angeles, everyone wants to look fresh and dewy. This is the way to get a healthy glow. It stimulates the blood flow during the suction process. Again, the great thing is that Belle Visage uses the (2 in 1) crystal-diamond Micro machine.

I hope this information was helpful
