Spa Bella Changes The Skin Scene

Local Spa is Seeing Remarkable Results with their Laser and Esthetic Options

SINCE INCEPTION, SPA BELLA HAS ADDED ADVANCED aesthetic products and procedures revolutionizing the offerings available to their customers. In the last year, owner Kristan Berry and her team have not only introduced new products, but added a Sciton laser to their arsenal, and their clients are seeing amazing results. “We are always striving to be on the cutting edge of technology and offer the latest products and procedures, allowing our clients to be their best selves,” said Kristan.

The Sciton HALO is a high-end skin resurfacing laser that operates using two distinct wavelengths to target skin concerns on multiple levels. “Over the years, sun exposure and everyday living can result in visible signs of aging,” said Kristan. “This includes sun spots, fine lines and loss of your natural and healthy glow.” But Spa Bella is changing that by using this laser technology to eliminate years of damage by triggering the body’s natural healing response, revealing the luminous glow their clients are looking and longing for.

The treatment takes as little as one hour, has minimal downtime and you will see results within just one week, with continued improvement over time. Since it does stimulate the collagen in your skin, you will see results for the weeks and months to come. “Everyone’s skin is different,” said Kristan. “Everyone’s needs are different and with HALO, we can customize a treatment that fits your lifestyle and what your skin needs.”

Since she is always striving to improve the experience and results for her clients, Kristan sought a solution to improve the HALO results even more. And she found it right here in North Louisiana! Kristan was introduced to Hydrinity, created by a West Monroe native himself, Keith O’Briant. Keith has a medical and pharmaceutical background with 30 years experience and recently moved back from Atlanta, Georgia. “I spent a large part of my career in pharmaceuticals and then helping to create, consult and build companies,” said Keith. “So this was a natural transition. I always knew that I wanted to have a Louisiana based company.” What began as a regenerative medicine company that developed advanced wound care products using revolutionary hyaluronic-acid technology quickly developed into more after hearing the results of their products. “Reports from leading clinicians revealed that our supercharged hyaluronic acid-based formulas promoted rapid healing and repair on even severely compromised skin in patients undergoing radiation therapy,” said Keith. “We realized that we were on to something and so started experimenting with skin repair and anti- aging serums for at-home use. After 3 years, multiple formulations, and tireless research from our teams of scientists and physicians, accelerated skin science was born.”

Their products feature the only injectable grade hyaluronic acid rather than topical and have twice as much than other products. “This is truly the first real advancement in 25 years when it comes to these products,” said Keith. “It allows people to experience healing from within rather than just on top of their skin.” Currently, Hydrinity offers three products - a restorative serum, a renewing serum and a purifying mist. The company plans to expand with an eye serum, a hair, nail and skin gummy, a brightening cream and more in the coming year. Spa Bella was the first spa to carry their products and it is a natural fit. “Our restorative serum is really designed for post treatment while our Renewing serum is good for everyday use,” explains Keith. “The mist is anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory so when laser patients use it, they see a reduction in redness and it normalizes the pH of their skin, allowing them to heal quickly, improving their results even more.”
