Classic Facial
Timeless and beloved, the classic facial is the “little black dress” of skincare. After a double cleanse and fruit-enzyme polish, gentle extractions clear congestion. A tension-melting massage follows, then a mask hand-picked to match your skin’s mood that day.
Why clients love it:
- Instant hydration and a lit-from-within glow
- Seasonal reset between more advanced treatments
- Includes neck, shoulder, and mini-scalp massage for full-body calm
True Beauty Aesthetics is a woman-owned practice deeply rooted in Mount Pleasant. We’ve built our reputation on elegant, bespoke results that honor each person’s natural beauty.
Anti-Aging Facial
Designed for skin with fine lines, mild laxity, or sun damage from long, hot Charleston summers. We layer resurfacing enzymes with peptide-rich serums, microcurrent toning, and a firming mask.
Enjoy these beauty benefits:
- Subtle lift along cheek and jaw contours (“Pilates for the face”)
- Brighter tone from antioxidant vitamin-C infusion
- Plumping hydration that softens expression lines for days

SkinMedica® Chemical Peels
For those ready to level-up glow and tackle discoloration, our expert aestheticians apply professional SkinMedica peels that vary in strength: Illuminize® (gentle), Vitalize® (moderate), or Rejuvenize® (advanced). Expect light flaking days 2-4 and brighter, noticeably refreshed skin by week 1.
Key perks of peels:
- Targets brown spots, fine lines, and acne marks simultaneously
- Minimal chair time; maximum brightening payoff
- Safe for many skin tones when applied by our trained team
*Individual results may vary.
“Alana is amazing and I highly recommend her! My skin has been on a journey for about 2 years now and Alana always gives me the best recommendations. I recently did a chemical peel and was a little nervous about it for the first time but she guided me through and I am loving the results!!”

Backcial
Breakouts and rough texture don’t stop at the jawline. A Backcial (or back facial) brings professional care to the upper back and shoulders: starting with a steam cleanse, then a clarifying enzyme, thorough but gentle extractions, and a redness-calming clay mask. Give these often-overlooked areas the love they deserve, then slip confidently into tanks and open-back dresses.
DiamondGlow®
DiamondGlow takes facial treatments to the next level with a unique three-step process that simultaneously exfoliates, extracts, and infuses targeted serums deep into your skin. This noninvasive treatment uses diamond-tip technology to remove dead skin cells while delivering customized serums directly where your skin needs them most.
Shine bright with these benefits:
- Diamond-tip exfoliation removes dull, dead skin cells
- Deep pore cleansing through gentle suction extraction of impurities and blackheads
- Serums deliver targeted nutrients directly into freshly resurfaced skin
- Smoother, more refined skin texture with continued improvement over time
- Enhanced glow that many patients notice lasting several days
Revitalizing Eye Mask (Add-On)
Silky hydrogel pads infused with caffeine, peptides, and arnica de-puff tired eyes while your facial mask sets. Perfect before (or after!) flights, weddings, or long Zoom marathons.
Scalp Massage (Add-On)
Borrowed from our popular Head Spa, this aromatic ritual uses warm botanical oil and pressure-point techniques to melt away hidden tension. Boosts circulation for hair health and leaves your strands shiny—not greasy.
