About Skin Care Services

What Medical Skin Care Does Differently

Most skin concerns start below the surface. Dullness, rough texture, breakouts and uneven pigment come from how quickly your skin cells turn over, how much oil and bacteria sit in your pores, and how much sun exposure has built up over the years. Over-the-counter products can only work on the top layer. Medical skin care services use stronger actives, deeper exfoliation and controlled stimulation of the skin to reach the layers where those problems begin. Some treatments give you an immediate glow. Others, like chemical peels and microneedling, are more about long-term change and work best as a series. Your provider will tell you which is which and how often to come in.

What We Offer

Skin Care Treatments at Swãe

The skin care treatments below each work on a different concern, and several can be combined in the same visit or spaced out over a few weeks. Have a look through them to see what matches your skin. Each service page explains what the treatment does, what happens during the appointment, how many sessions are usually needed and how your skin will feel afterward, so you can come to your consultation already knowing what you'd like to ask about.

Microneedling

Microneedling creates thousands of tiny controlled punctures in the skin, which triggers your body to produce new collagen. Over a series of sessions, texture smooths, scars soften and pores look smaller.

Melasma Treatments

Melasma is a stubborn form of pigmentation that shows up as brown or grey-brown patches, usually on the cheeks, forehead and upper lip. It needs a careful, layered approach, because treating it too aggressively can make it worse.

Why Patients Choose Swãe for Skin Care

Good skin care starts with a proper look at your skin, not a menu. We check your skin type, how it reacts to products, what you're already using at home and what you want to change. From there, we build a treatment plan and adjust it as your skin responds.

Medical-grade products and tools

We use professional-strength actives and devices that aren't available at retail, applied by trained providers who know how far to push your skin safely.

Treatment plans, not one-off appointments

Skin changes gradually. We plan sessions at the right intervals and pair them with a home routine that keeps results going between visits.

Care for every skin type

Darker skin tones, sensitive skin and acne-prone skin each respond differently to treatment. We choose products and settings with that in mind.

FAQ

Any Questions?

How often should I get a professional skin treatment?

For most people, every four to six weeks matches the skin's natural renewal cycle. Your provider will suggest a schedule based on your skin and the treatment you're having.

Will my skin peel or be red afterward?

It depends on the treatment. Gentler services leave your skin glowing with no downtime, while deeper peels and microneedling can cause a few days of redness or light flaking.

‍

Can you treat acne?

Yes. We treat active breakouts as well as the marks and scarring they leave behind, and we'll adjust your home routine so treatments hold up between visits.

Are these treatments safe for darker skin tones?

Yes, with the right product and technique. Some treatments carry a higher risk of pigmentation changes on deeper skin tones, so we select and adjust them carefully.

Do I need to change my home skin care routine?

Usually a little. Your provider will tell you which products to pause before and after treatment and may suggest medical-grade options that support your results.

Can I have a skin treatment right before an event?

Book gentler treatments a few days ahead so any redness settles. For peels or microneedling, allow at least one to two weeks.

What Our Patients Say

I cannot express enough how beautiful this place is! The location is in the heart of Hermosa, right next to tower 12. It’s super easy to find upstairs and perfect for a quick, calming break from work. From start to finish, I felt so welcomed and the nurses took their time describing each step and made me feel at ease. The laser hair removal was so fast and painless, I now want to get my entire body done. The new machine is so powerful, the nurses anticipated less treatments than I’m used to. I already bought packages and recommend to this place to everyone!

I recently got laser hair removal at Swãe Med Spa and had such a great experience! The clinic itself is absolutely beautiful with such an aesthetic and relaxing vibe. Giselle the PA and Nurse Nicole were both so friendly, knowledgeable, and gentle throughout the entire appointment. They made me feel so comfortable and walked me through everything. I was honestly surprised by how little it hurt! I would definitely recommend Swãe Med Spa to anyone needing laser hair removal or any other beauty needs!

Clara B.

SWAE is a new med spa I found in Hermosa Beach. I went in for skin tightening and my very first laser hair removal treatment. I've always wanted to try laser hair removal and I can't believe I've never done this before! It was completely painless and so quick, and the nurses made the experience so comfortable and even fun! The skin tightening treatment was painless as well, and I noticed that my skin already feels smoother and tighter as the days go by. I purchased a package so I can continue with my laser hair removal treatments, and I'm definitely going back for more skin treatments!

Jennifer K.

I highly recommend Sawe Med Spa in Hermosa Beach! The entire staff was wonderful—warm, professional, and so easy to work with. A special shoutout to Nicolle, who did my LaseMD Ultra treatment. She was knowledgeable, attentive, and made the whole experience comfortable from start to finish. Best of all, I had virtually no downtime, and my skin looks noticeably smoother and more polished. I couldn’t be happier with the results and my overall experience!
