The LIGHTWAVE System utilizes high-end Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) to distribute the Specific Wavelengths of light it radiates. This technology is commonly referred to as Photobiomodulation or LED therapy. Over the past 40 years, positive therapeutic results have been clinically documented by independent research and publications worldwide.
Why use needles when you can use Sculplla-H2, a safe, non-injection treatment that stimulates skin to make collagen, giving you firmer, tighter, smoother skin? Sculplla drives an ingredient called Poly L Lactic Acid (which is the exact same ingredient you'll find in the filler Sculptra), as well as a blend of anti-aging favorites like caffeine and niacinamide into the top layer of your skin to plump wrinkles.
Get ready for summer! This Back treatment provides effective exfoliation to address back acne, dry skin, and various common back conditions. Ideal for all skin types, and especially recommended for congested skin. Soothe inflammation and redness, or just soften the skin for a beautiful glow. The back is resurfaced with 40% Glycolic and Proteolytic Enzyme, followed by thorough extractions and hydration.
NeurotriS SX 4500 uses the latest advancements in NANO 2nd generation technology to offer clients a non-invasive solution for facial and body toning. SkinLab can offer a non-invasive approach to improve and return a youthful appearance. A microcurrent facial is often referred to as a "natural" facelift.

Liza is a master of her craft! She is friendly, very knowledgeable, and educates you on how to take care of your skin the way she does. Her techniques and the products (and equipment) she uses on her clients are top grade!

Wow! If there was a PhD for estheticians, Liza would have it! Her amazing knowledge of biological science, combined with her knowledge of skin care ingredients, her advanced treatment types ,and passionately caring manner make Liza a true superstar. I've had many treatment types elsewhere before discovering Liza and Skin Lab, and the results she delivers are the best and longest lasting. If you want visible, measurable results, Skin Lab is the place to go!

Liza is an exceptional esthetician who is highly skilled, meticulous and a delight to be around. She educates the client on each step, the purpose of the specific ingredients she chooses to use and equips the client with knowledge to practice in their daily routine. She sends a custom regimen post procedure to guide the client in the maintenance of their skin between visits.

Liza Pielsticker is a true medical skin care professional! I've been seeing her for years and going in for microdermabrasion facials, Jessner chemical peels, and micro current facials. My skin has improved significantly since I started seeing her for monthly treatments. She is personable, kind and a joy to be with. Liza at Skinlab is amazing and I highly recommend her for anti-aging and any type of looking awesome regimen

I absolutely love Liza, as both a professional who works magic on my skin as well as a human being! She is thorough, knowledgeable, and goes the extra mile beyond what I paid for to ensure my skin is getting exactly what it needs. Looking out for my best interest, she discouraged services that my skin doesn't need (rather than just selling me whatever I wanted, because I literally want to try everything!). I've had microderm abrasion and micro channeling (micro needling). The first month I got micro needling, I didn't get acne for the first time in my life! (I have chronic hormonal

I had a wonderful first visit with Liza! Liza is very knowledgeable with skincare and super personable. I have had several experiences with esthetician's and I would have to say she is one of the best! The results from my Microdermabrasion session left my skin radiant and super smooth! Looking forward to my next visit!

I get the light infusion facials and I am in love! Liza has helped me not only get my skin more under control but also understand my skin more! Her extractions are amazing and the products I use that she recommended have really helped my skin! Super grateful I found Liza!

I'll chime in with all the other rave reviews on here - Liza is the real deal. Her thorough scientific knowledge of the skin coupled with her big heart makes her the most extraordinary aesthetician. Every microdermabrasion session with her is an illuminating education in the mysteries of the skin while her warm and spirited demeanor will make you feel nurtured and truly taken care of. She'll even check in with you a few days after the session to track progress; I've never had an aesthetician go that extra mile. She really takes the time to develop a relationship with her clients

Liza is a Rockstar and I deeply appreciate her in depth knowledge of skincare and anti-aging procedures. I’ve been seeing her for a few years now, and the monthly microdermabrasion facials have done wonders for my face. I love the micro current facials that help with hydration and lifting and toning my skin. The yearly chemical peel is a must and I feel like I’m in the best care with Liza. Love Liza and highly recommend Skinlab for anti aging solutions.

Liza at Skinlab gives fantastic facials. I’m so grateful to have her watching over my skin. I’ve done several microdermabrasion facials and my skin has improved significantly. She is great at follow up, and is always making sure I’m doing a good job with my products at home. Make sure you follow the routine !

Liza is so awesome-- I have gone to her three times so far for microdermabrasion, and my skin always feels so clean and smooth afterward. I have had facials before at other establishments but always felt criticized by the estheticians for how I treat my skin. Liza is not like that at all. She is a great educator, and I feel better motivated to take care of my skin after seeing and talking with her. She is generous with her time and even checks up a couple days later to see how my skin is doing! I go to the location in Kentfield, and it is a nice, quiet and relaxing office with lots of parking available

Liza is an absolute goddess and savior of skin. I've been seeing her for about a decade, and it's truly magic how she can create such an environment of peace and tranquility, while also providing powerful and transformative treatments. She has earned my trust, and my repeat business time and time again. I have nothing but gratitude for Liza Pielsticker and SkinLab

I've been getting facials regularly all of my adult life and after I found Skin Lab 7 years ago, there is simply no way I'd go anywhere else for facials - I'm not alone, Liza has a well-earned loyal following of people who used to have to travel to union square for treatments, but no more, she's opened a Skin lab in Marin (with parking!). At 48 years old, somehow she's been able to reverse the decades of sun-worshipping I did in my youth, and restore what I loved about my skin 20 years ago. Liza's also an extraordinarily lovely person in addition to a skin care magician

I'm so excited that Liza is also open in Marin! I've been going to see her in SF for 10 years now. She's done wonders for my hyperpigmentation, and as the years have gone by, really helped me look my best with an anti-aging regimen. I get both microderm and chemical peels from her and could not be happier. I also did a few slimming body wraps with her post holidays, and it actually made a difference! I really didn't expect it to do much, I just wanted to try and make myself look a little better before I had to put on a swimsuit. My legs and belly were smoother afterwards :)

Liza is the creme de la creme of aestheticians!! Truly no others compare to her. Her skill set is bar none and she's knowledgeable about every single procedure she performs and educates along the way.
Her microdermabrasions and her microchanneling procedures are highly recommended. My skin has transformed!!
I've used Liza's services for over 15 years now and couldn't be happier.

I have been getting facials from Liza for almost ten years now, and cannot recommend her enough. It is fantastic that she now has two locations, splitting her time between her location in Union Square and the new spot in San Anselmo!

Liza will help to guide with the proper regimen that fits each person's skin and lifestyle, and she offers different treatments and provides honest advice for reaching goals non-invasively.

There is no doubt that I owe 5 years or more of youthfulness (as well as avoiding future skin damage to Liza).
