FOUNDER & TREATMENT PROVIDER


Michael Esthetician Skin Fusion Spa Astoria

MICHAEL IOANNOU

Founder & CEO

Michael loannou attended the Aveda Institute in New York City for his Esthetics certification, as well as SUNY Empire State College for his Bachelors degree in Business. Michael believes in a balance between mind, body and spirit, infusing Ayurvedic and Aromatherapy Techniques into his treatments. Years invested in retail, management, education, and clinical services have culminated into the experience of The Skin Fusion Spa. Tired of feeling like he was working at a corporate environment, Michael wanted to create a space that was more personal for his clients. A place where the client's needs came first, and not the sales quotas from a corporation.

At Skin Fusion Spa, you can experience a vast array of Michael's specialties, including facial treatments, Hydrafacial and cosmetic laser. Laser technology is available for those that require collagen stimulation, smoothing of fine lines, rosacea, acne management and hair removal. Instead of in and out "cookie cutter" services, he focuses on personalized treatments with in depth analysis and education. The goal is for all clients to leave not only looking good, but feeling special.

Michael believes in using the finest pharmaceutical grade products working with diverse skin types. His partnership with Circadia Skin and HydraFacial sets him apart as one of New York City's leading Estheticians.
