The Best Skin Reset Protocol
Forget what you thought you knew about facials. This isn’t your typical collagen cocktail or a gentle brush of hydration. The Cellstory Facial at Joanna Vargas delivers real results, no needles, no downtime, and absolutely no waiting game. If you’ve ever wanted the transformative effects of microneedling without the punctures, the numbing cream, or the post-treatment flush, this is your shortcut to next-level skin.
The Science Behind the Skin Magic
Cellstory uses advanced low-molecular-weight delivery tech which means: it’s smart skincare that travels deep. This proprietary system shuttles a potent blend of growth factors, peptides, and antioxidants all the way into the dermis, where they help your skin rebuild from the inside out.
Step-by-Step: What Happens During a Cellstory Facial
We don’t gatekeep great skin. Here’s exactly what goes down during your 60-minute glow session:
Step 1: Double Cleanse
We begin with a deep but gentle double cleanse to remove every trace of makeup, sunscreen, and city air from your skin.
Step 2: Enzymatic Exfoliation
A gentle exfoliant lifts away dead skin cells and preps your skin to receive every active ingredient that follows.
Step 3: The Delivery
This is where the magic happens. Our esthetician massages in the Cellstory serum, which contains a concentrated blend of growth factors and peptides delivered through needle-free microchanneling technology.
Step 4: Lymphatic Drainage + Sculpting Massage
To enhance absorption and stimulate circulation, you’ll receive our signature lifting massage—a Joanna Vargas hallmark.
Step 5: Barrier-Rebuilding Mask + LED Light
We lock it all in with a calming, anti-inflammatory mask and red LED light therapy to boost collagen production and calm the skin.
Step 6: Hydration & Glow Finish
We finish with a layer of high-performance moisturizer and SPF so you can walk out of our spa looking luminous and lifted.
It Starts With That “Glow-to-Go” Effect
What makes Cellstory so addictive isn’t just the science, it’s how you look immediately after. Clients leave with a lit-from-within glow, a visible tightness to their pores, and the kind of luminous tone you usually only get from your phone’s beauty filter.
“I woke up the next day and couldn’t believe how even and luminous I looked,” says one client. “I didn’t want to wear makeup for the first time in years.”
And that’s just one session.
Cellstory is a savior for skin that’s moody, unbalanced, or just plain tired. Think: acne-prone skin, lingering scars, dullness, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and uneven texture.
Clients see:
-
Reduced redness and breakouts
-
Faded dark spots
-
Softer, smoother skin texture
-
Noticeably tighter-looking pores
Who It’s For
Cellstory is safe and effective for:
-
Sensitive skin types
-
Acne-prone and congested skin
-
Skin experiencing post-acne hyperpigmentation
-
Dull or “blah” complexions in need of a reset
-
Those prepping for big events (red carpet or date night)
It’s your ultimate pre-event facial, but it’s also a game-changer when done consistently. Think of it as a bootcamp for your skin, minus the bruises.
Results You Can See, Healing You Can Feel.
In a world of skincare slow burns, Cellstory is the exception. It’s results-forward, derm-approved, and glow-inducing, after just one treatment. Whether you’re looking to reset your skin post-travel, prep for a photo moment, or finally get control over stubborn texture and tone, Cellstory is your answer.
It’s not just skincare. It’s skin therapy.
