MODERN LUXURY SAN DIEGO MAGAZINE
VOTED BEST MED SPA
LA JOLLA SKIN STUDIO has been featured in Modern Luxury Magazine as one of the best minimally invasive skin studios in San Diego. A testament to Faith Diaz's unwavering commitment to pharmacuetical grade skincare and results-driven treatments that set the standard in luxury aesthetics.
"I've been coming to see Faith for years. I followed her for her cozy studio in Bird Rock to this gourgeous studio in the heart of La Jolla. Faith is so knowledgable and kind. I truly won't let anyone else touch my face. LJSS has the best products, treatment, aesthetic and aesthetician in San Diego. You truly won't regret coming here."
"I'm so thankful for Faith! She always does more than what is required to give me the best service and care that exceed my expectations. Truly improving my skin for the simple face that she cares. She listens and has helped me better understand interanl and external factors, and provides treatments beyond my scheduled time to help me improve my skin health!"
"I've been working with Faith Diaz, and I cannot say enough good things about my experience. As an African American woman, finding someone who truly understands my skin has always been a challenge - but Faith has exceeded every expectation. She's incredibly knowledgable, attentive, and takes the time to tailor treatments specifically for my skin type and concers. Since working with her, my skin has never looked or felt better - glowing, clear, and healthier than ever before."
The Spark that started it all
Before LA JOLLA SKIN STUDIO existed, there was a calling. In 2007, Faith Diaz began her aesthetics career and discovered almost immediately that she had been gifted with something far greater than a skill - a genuine, soul-deep passion for making people feel confident, seen, and like the most radiant versions of themselves. Every face she touched, every transformation she witnessed, quietly laid the foundation for what was destined to become one of San Diego's most coveted skin studios. The dream had taken root.
Born for purpose, built for passion
On January 11th, 2021 - at one of the most pivotal moments in our world - LA JOLLA SKIN STUDIO officially opened it's doors in a boutique suite in the hear of Bird rock, Just steps from the La Jolla, coastline. After nearly 14 year working alongside world-renowned plastic surgeous and premier med spas throughouts California, Faith knew she was ready to build something entirely her own. The location was intentional - Faith always believed the LA JOLLA SKIN STUDIO experience begins the moment you make the drive in, past the ocean, the lush greenery, and the breathtaking real estate that sets the tone for everyting that happens inside the treatment room. We are, and have always been, the Jewel of Skincare.
Recognition, Growth & A Village Address
Just eight months after opening, LA JOLLA SKIN STUDIO had already outgrown it's first home - a testament to the transformative results and undeniable word-of-mouth that Faith's expertise naturally creates. The studio relocated to a prominent address on Prospect Street in the heart of La Jolla Village, and the momentum never slowed. In 2022, LA JOLLA SKIN STUDIO was recognized by Modern Luxury Magazine, La Valencia, and ABC10 News as the best minimally invasive med spa in San Diego - validating what our patients had known all along. From a carefully curated selection of treatmetns, the studio rapidly grew into oa full arsenal of FDA-approved modalities, each one dleivering results that left patients truly speechless.
2023 - Present
Elevated. Expanded. unstoppable.
Growth has always been in LA JOLLA SKIN STUDIO'S DNA - and less than two years after relocation, the studio expanded once agian into it's current home at 909 Prospect Streeet: a stunning, boutique-style med spa with three private treatmet rooms in the hear of La Jolla Village. Today, Faith Diaz works alongside Registered Nurse Jennifer Ryan-25 years of clinical expertise - to deliver a truly elevated fusion of medial aesthetis, wellness injectables, IV therapy, Emsculpt, and advanced skin treatments under one roof. Together, they share a singular vision: to hjonor the whole person, treat the whole skin, and create an experience othat is as transformative on the inside as it is luminous on the outside. LA JOLLA SKIN STUDIO is not just a destination - its a movement.
