Brigitte Tolson Skincare & Esthetics

Brigitte is an incredibly gifted facialist. She was so attentive to my skin's unique needs and happily answered any questions I had about the process or products she was using. From the moment I walked in, the space felt calm, welcoming, and very very clean. Attention was given to even the smallest details (like phone chargers and a great music playlist) to create a cacoon of relaxation. Her touch soothed away the tension in my face, hands and feet. By the end of the session, my whole body felt as light as a cloud and my skin glowed for days. ☺️

As a doctor, I appreciate that Brigitte works with chemists to create the Peptide & Stem Cell Facial’s incredible results that are science based.

I love having the results of a more natural Botox effect, and the hydration and in depth facial massage are beyond anything I’ve experienced. Her own product lines are equally unsurpassed in results as well. Can’t recommend her enough!

I recently visited Brigitte Tolson Skincare & Esthetics in Sawtelle for the first time the day before a photoshoot because I wanted a facial that gave me glowing and radiant skin, and left me camera-ready. I was also hoping to calm down some stubborn acne.

From start to finish, this facial exceeded my expectations! I got the Peptide & Stem Cell Facial which felt like the ultimate luxury skincare experience. The treatment session included deep cleansing, microdermabrasion, gentle extractions, a light TCA peel (chemical peel that helps brighten the skin and address scarring), and a powerful stem cell infused mask that left my skin looking smooth, hydrated, and visibly refreshed. By the time I walked out, my skin complexion looked brighter, my pores appeared tighter, and my acne was noticeably reduced. I suffer from small blackheads in my t-zone and the extractions took care of that completely.

The entire facial spa experience with Brigitte was super relaxing, tailored to my specific needs, and results-driven. If you’re looking for the best facial for glowing skin, acne reduction, and a true luxury facial treatment before a big event, this is it. My makeup applied flawlessly the next day, no filter needed! I highly recommend Brigitte Tolson for anyone wanting radiant, rejuvenated skin and a confidence boost. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

I am an 80 year old woman who has been going to Brigitte for several years. I am constantly getting compliments on my skin and I can truly say I owe it all to Brigitte. Her products have helped my shin remain moist and youthful looking. She is constantly evaluating my skin directing me what to use as I age. What I really appreciate is that what she uses and recommends is for my specific issues and she totally understands making it simple and easy. You will be delighted by her products and thoughtfulness.

Brigitte is the best esthetician I’ve been to. I love her skincare line and the facial massage she gives during a facial is just like heaven! Super happy I found her.

I discovered Brigitte more than a decade ago on Sawtelle while looking for a practitioner who truly understood Asian skin care, especially hyperpigmentation and acne. She offers a thoughtful, results-driven mix of treatments like microneedling, chemical peels, and the deeper, sculpting work of myofascial release massage for the face, and lymphatic drainage techniques that leave my skin brighter and feeling supported (not irritated or over-treated).

Her new treatment room on Barrington has the kind of calm, cozy vibe that makes appointments feel like a retreat, with small touches that genuinely matter - like charging cables, blankets, and the most comfortable adjustable facial bed I’ve experienced anywhere.

She’s also co-created her own line of clinical skin care products with doctors in Italy and Korea. They’re some of the best products I’ve tried, but what I appreciate most is that she never pushes them - she only guides you toward products when you ask or share a concern.

I see her monthly for the Peptide Stem Cell Microneedling Facial, which has kept my skin looking better than it did 10 years ago with minimal downtime. Other standout options include the Detox Facial with acne-targeted ingredients, and the Caviar Facial, which features hyaluronic acid, GHK-cu copper peptides, stem cells, plus vitamins and amino acids.

Whether you want facials, peels, or specialized Asian skin care, Brigitte makes every visit exceptional.

My wife and I drive up from San Diego every month to see Brigette, and I get the Detox Facial and she gets the Peptide Stem Cell Facial. The acne scars and break outs I had are gone, and my wife’s sun damage and fine lines are gone. She says her skin looks younger than it did in high school. There’s a reason so many people travel to see Brigette. Her work is unmatchable!

My spouse and I fly to Los Angeles multiple times a year for the Peptide Stem Cell Facial, because the results are simply worth it. Not only does this facial address acne, aging, and sun spots, but it’s actually more relaxing than a massage because Brigitte includes lymphatic drainage and lifting massage while your skin is being treated. Our skin has never looked this great, and we have sent many friends her way too. Her product lines are the best we have tried as well.

When it comes to facial treatments and facials in Los Angeles, there is no more effective treatment than The Stem Cell Facial with Brigitte, and I am so glad she is an esthetician near me, because she has clients that fly from NYC just to see her for this treatment along with the Ultrabeam (a laser facial that also include microneedling or microchanneling) which I plan to try next. The experience is both the most relaxing, but most effective facial I've had. On top of full extractions, real microdermabrasion, microneedling with peptides, stem cells and a custom blend she micro injects using an advanced medical pen (Brigitte also has the advantage of being a cosmetic surgery technician), a custom TCA chemical peel, she also does a lymphatic drainage massage for the face, and ends the service with a relaxing foot massage while a custom blended mask with organic plants soaked in hyaluronic acid hydrate your face.

My skin feels smoother and glows more than it has in decades, and her facials along with her product lines, Green Chemistry and HARA Medical have transformed my skin along with my confidence. She also carries products from other lines she truly believes in, and has never steered me wrong. I've tried all the famous skin care experts, and I will never go to a different facial spa again. Best facials in Los Angeles.
She is the best!!! I highly recommend!!

I’ve been seeing Brigitte for years, and every time I leave her studio, I swear it’s the best facial I’ve ever had—but this most recent Stem Cell Facial truly topped them all.

As soon as you walk into her reception area, you feel an instant sense of calm. The energy in her studio is serene and relaxing, and Brigitte’s personable, warm energy instantly puts you at ease. She has a gift for making every visit feel special and deeply restorative.

This time, she customized every step to my skin’s needs, starting with a gentle yet powerful TCA peel that perfectly prepped my skin. She followed with microneedling infused with peptides that mimic Botox, hydrating hyaluronic acid, and plant-based stem cells from gotu kola and Damask roses. My skin felt nourished from the inside out and healed faster than ever.

On top of that, the facial included microdermabrasion, meticulous extractions, and the most soothing herbal fruit mask. And as if that wasn’t enough, she treated me to relaxing face, arm, and foot massages that made the entire experience feel like a head-to-toe renewal.

I’ve had many facials over the years, including some at five-star resorts, but I always come back to Brigitte. She is, without question, the best aesthetician I’ve ever been to. I always walk out glowing, but this time my skin looked plumper, smoother, and more radiant than I can remember. If you’re lucky enough to get on her schedule, don’t hesitate—she’s truly the best in the business.
