Essent Spa Review

I visited the spa for my first time about a week ago. The check in process was seamless and from the moment I walked in, I felt relaxed. My 50 minute massage was amazingly done by Victoria. I will absolutely be back again- very soon!

I had sculpsure and a vampire facial at this spa and was completely impressed and satisfied after both! During the sculpsure treatment Billie Jo massaged my arms and shoulders to help take my mind off the treatment which really did help. Jen was awesome with the vampire facial and very knowledgeable. I will definitely be back!!

I was looking for a way to totally relax over my winter break and the services at Essent Spa were the perfect answer. The hot rock massage was, hands down, the best I ve ever had!

I had an excellent experience at Essent Spa. Heather is terrific she did the Age Eraser laser procedure on my face and neck. She was extremely accommodating, professional and made me feel very much at ease. I will definitely keep coming back to Essence Spa!

Essent Spa has a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere. My husband and I recently shared a spa day together, getting facials, body treatments and massage. Billie Joe s facial is heavenly and Jamie knows how to get rid of all the stress and tension with her deep tissue massage. Add this to your list of to do s!

Heather was great and made me comfortable. She came up with a great plan for my skin that I m very excited about !

Visited for the first time this week. Had a great massage....Jamie really knew her stuff....hit all the "knots" that I didn't even know I had. Very professional and thorough. Since I needed a haircut I stayed for that and the stylist Maria was kind and engaging...and very friendly. Something you always don't see in a higher end type facility. Whomever owns this place has it figured out pretty well.

SO relaxing and therapeutic at the same time. Loved Jamie!!

Fantastic spa with excellent staff. Dr. Alison does a great job offering services that are tailored to you with an intimate and welcoming atmosphere.

I had a facial with an add-on LED treatment. It was wonderful! The atmosphere was so relaxing from the lounge with flavored water to the heated bed where I had my facial. I felt so refreshed and rejuvenated afterwards! My favorite part is that they use all organic ingredients and that the treatments are based on medical technologies.

Billie Jo was wonderful as was the facial with the complimentary foot scrub. Had a lovely chat with Dr. Abiri, the Owner & Founder. Who knew there was such a relaxing & welcoming spa so close to home!!

Had a wonderful time here, my massage therapist was outstanding and I would absolutely go again!

I am so busy with my two girls and family and Essent Spa is the only Spa which really is so convenient and the services are right on target. I am in the process of having laser hair removal and on my 3rd session and I see the results. It is easy to get a convenient appointment time and they send reminders. The Spa is my go to place.

Essent Spa offers outstanding services. You are directly attended by her owner Dr. Alison Abiri who makes sure you are well taken care of. I was highly impressed by the quick and smooth check in and check out. You can tell that all members of the staff are well trained in customer service. Online booking works really well. I highly recommend Essent Spa.

The products and services are amazing, but don't hold a candle to the people who work there. Everyone is attentive and kind and welcoming in a way that makes it easy to leave any tension or negativity at the door. I don't recommend many people, places, or things. I recommend Essent Spa.

I had a wonderful session with Julie who is an excellent nurse injector. She is very professional and competent. I highly recommend her for Botox.

I am so happy Essent Spa was recommended to me. I had a facial last week and LOVED it! I am very impressed with how friendly and welcoming Dr. Alison and her staff were. The spa itself is the most luxurious spa I have ever been to. I already booked another facial and look forward to trying out other services they offer.

Cori was great! She was knowledgeable and professional!

I just had Sculpsure done last week and Dr. Alison and her staff were AMAZING! They made me feel incredibly comfortable during the procedure and they are extremely nice.

Dr. Alison was very honest in regards to how the procedure would feel like before it happened, and how it would feel afterwards - so I knew exactly what to expect. Dr. Alison and her assistant were with me during the entire time I was there, talking to me and making sure I was comfortable and distracted during the Sculpsure procedure.

I wouldn't trust anyone else, Essent Spa is THE BEST place to have your Sculpsure done!

I died and went to heaven. This is how wonderful this spa was. I had a massage and body scrub and wrap. The best spa I ever went to. My husband did his homework when buying me this gift! I was recently at a spa in Napa and the quality of the services doesn t compare. Staff is very professional and kind. My best friend and I are already planning our next trip to the spa.

This massage was the absolute best sports massage I have ever received. Carolina was divine. She knew and understood the physiology of the athlete body and was able to manipulate muscles for the perfect realignment and release of muscle tension. She was so strong and knowledgeable. I would recommend her to athletes who are running long distances, spinning frequently, or have tennis ailments. I can t say enough!!! I will be back.

Great spa located in suburbs, had ultimate massage with Jaime, it was very relaxing and can't wait to schedule another appointment with her. After massage, went into lounge and was given a warm neck wrap and relaxed with assortment of teas, flavored waters and hot chocolate.

My daughter and I recently had the best facials we ve ever had! Truly I looked ten years younger when I walked out and super relaxed. Thank you Allison!!!

Best spa! The staff, especially Billy Jo, is amazing.Dr. Alison Abiri is extremely knowledgeable and caring of her clients. She goes above and beyond to meet your desired results. The atmosphere is gorgeous and relaxing. One of the prettiest and serene spas in the area. Don t hesitate to book an appointment.

I attended a botox party. Jennifer was the nurse that injected the botox. She was gentle and knowledgeable. I completely recommend her.

Spent the summer in the sun rejuvenating my mind and body. Today it was time for my skin. Had a great experience at Essent Spa. Their skin rejuvenation is a must if you have sun damage. Dr. Alison is very knowledgeable and great at identifying which treatment would be most beneficial for your skin. Looking forward to seeing the great results.

Skilled, Professional and Delightful! I can't say enough good things about the MicroPen facial-experience I received from Heather P at Essent Spa. Heather is AMAZING! She is so kind and her gentle manner shows through in all aspects of working with client and addressing their individual needs. She detailed the follow up care and set realistic expectations, my next appointment is set, can't wait to return!

My wife received a "lip pop" with Jen last week. Her lips look beautiful; she said the spa was very professional, relaxing and that Jen was very eager to make sure she knew what she was getting done. Would definitely recommend this place to friends and family and my wife would love to get more services done here!

Dr. Alison is very professional. She personally checks on her clients and makes sure they are comfortable with any service they chose. Heather is amazing too: Very gentle and a good listener. Both make suggestions but are not pushy .
The spa is beautiful, very clean, very relaxing. I highly recommend this place.

I had a Rejuvenating Facial with Billie Jo and she was amazing! I will definitely be going back. GP, Havertown

I love Essent Spa! I have had several facials and treatments and have been pleased with all of them. The staff is so friendly and helpful and I love that Dr Allison is always around to give suggestions. Can't wait for my next visit!!

I got Dermaplaning with Lis for my wedding. Great experience! Definitely returning

Have had multiple great experiences at Essent. The staff is awesome ( polite & great at their jobs). Spa is clean and just overall a relaxing and nice place to be.

Very clean gym, nice size, good location, and lots of amenities.

Heather is the absolute best in every way! She is extremely proficient at what she does, in addition to being a great conversationalist. She is always very thoughtful about how she handles my procedures and listens to what I m trying to achieve and makes it happen. Dr. Alison is also incredibly warm and gracious and shows me how much she appreciates my patronage. Every person who I have worked with at Essent Spa has been amazing. Unlike other spas I ve been to, Essent always make me feel very comfortable and appreciated and offers an array of services at affordable prices.

I had a wonderful experience during my visit with Lis!! It was my first time dermaplaning and she was extremely informative and I could not be happier with the results. It was a very relaxing experience and my skin has been glowing ever since. I will be back to see Lis without hesitation and I highly recommend the Spa. Environment and staff were top notch!

GREAT glycolic peel facial AND experience today w Lis!!!

Beautiful and peaceful atmosphere! Clean! The best part for working people who need flexibility are their hours in the evenings and weekends with online booking. Dr. Alison is very attentive to clients needs. It feels like a get-a-way spa, but so convenient to the Main Line.

My teenage son had a facial and he left looking so much brighter. I had a massage and it really was the best I have had. Everything about the spa is top quality....the staff, the facilities, the treatments and the robes.
Highly recommended.
Alison and Jed. London. UK

My wife is an awe of this place. Says she has never been pampered better in her life. I do have to say that their gift certificates make it easy for me to shop for small I love you gifts.

Amazing and relaxing facial! The estheticians are very knowledgeable and helpful about the best skincare products. An added bonus is relaxing in the tranquility room after my facial. Overall it was a great experience and I highly recommend!

Heather Pierce was amazing! I had the Botox/Dysport Experience, and she was gentle and knowledgeable. She suggested I get a bit above my eyebrows for a "lift," and I looked refreshed without the "you had something done" look. She loves what she does and it shows.

Jaime gave me the best massage I have ever had. I have fibromyalgia and deal with a lot of pain. She relieved a lot of my pain for several days. Thank you Jaime!

Wow!! I loved Stacey. She has magical hands. I have a very physical job and she worked on me for 80 min sports deep tissue. She packs a mighty punch of awesome. I felt so chill and pain free. I will be coming back to get.

I went to essent spa today for the first time with my sister and nephew who were visiting me from the UK. They had wanted to go for a spa and as I had been recommended the salon by a friend and had my hair cut and dyed there a couple of weeks ago I spoke then to Billie Jo and arranged for the three of us to come in to the spa today. My nephew had a facial and my sister and myself had an aromatherapy massage. I have had many massages at top hotels and resorts around the world but can honestly say this was the best massage I have ever had. Carolina really picked every one of my sore areas and my one regret is that I only booked a 50 minute massage. From the moment I walked into the spa Billie Jo Jamie Adrianna and Carolina could not have been more attentive and friendly to us all. The facilities are super cool and the whole set up is extremely professional. I could have stayed there all day and I will definitely be coming back again and bringing my husband.

My nurse injector, Julie Magolon, was very knowledgeable. This was my first time having Botox and I was a little concerned. She explained each step of the way. Very gentle and a rather simple procedure. I would love to go back for other treatments. I highly recommend Julie!

I have been to see Jen Perry several times for my treatments and it has always been a great experience. She does an amazing job and now I get to have my treatment done in a 5 star spa with complimentary facials yay!

This was my first time going to a spa. I choose Essent because of the online reviews praising them. Let me tell you-all the reviews are not kidding! This place is amazing!! They made us feel comfortable and very welcome.

My daughter (12) who's very shy...asked if we can go back for another facial. Had this been a bad experience she would not have wanted to return. We are going back and I am definitely adding on enhancements!! Love the team!

Thank you Juliet, Irene & Lis!!

My experience with Essent Spa was amazing! Dr. Alison and Heather were very patient with me about my concerns of the treatment that I was getting. They were both very kind and knowledgeable.

Heather helped to make my experience so much more relaxing being as though I was super nervous. I saw instant results prior to leaving the salon, and couldn t have been happier. I literally left with tears of joy.

The atmosphere and environment is very comfortable and soothing. The staff are very friendly. I will be a returning customer.

Jen was excellent with my treatment. She explained the process and expected results.
As a new comer to Philadelphia I feel it was my good fortune to find Essentspa and Jen.

Awesome staff and relaxing environment! Can't wait to try the vampire facial!

Just went back for a second treatment and I still can't believe how accommodating the staff was. And they are open on Sunday's!!! A truly parmpered experience and great location!

Finally, a spa on the Mainline that actually feels like a retreat!! Fantastic services, a calm and welcoming atmosphere, tasteful decor. I had a body exfoliation and a seriously awesome massage. Love this place.

I have thoroughly enjoyed my (several) times at Essent and am already looking forward to my next aoooibtment! I ve had multiple facials, peels and injections and always walk away feeling fresh and looking more youthful. Specifically, Heather has done an amazing job with meeting my needs of wanting to look natural while simultaneously taking care of a few areas I wanted to touch up. I fly across the country to see her! Couldn t recommend more.

Finally, hands on the main line that can rival the hands I ve experienced in my global spa hopping m! Stacey was incredibly strong and intuitive. She was responsive to what my body was needing at the time and I will be sure to be back. The Ultimate Essent Massage was perfect and I m so glad to have discovered it here in my backyard!!

had a wonderful experience at essent spa with Adriene. She did the eraser treatment on my face. I feel my skin texture is improved and some fine lines have disappeared .Can't wait for my next trearment! Dr. Alison's customized treatments are particular to the person. I have tried some products and I love the Tri C cream.

Dr. Alison is very knowledgeable and truly cares about ensuring her patients achieve their desired results. The spa itself is beautiful; the treatment rooms are private, comfortable, and relaxing; not to mention the interior design details (even the ceiling is gorgeous). I've had numerous treatments from massages to facials to laser hair removal. I'm so glad this spa opened in such a convenient location. I highly recommend!!!

My first visit to the Essent Spa was great experience. For some time I was looking for spa on Main Line. And I am glad I found and chose Essent Spa. Very professional and very personal approach at this same time. Thank you Lis for this experience. You were wonderful. Your hands are magical.
See you soon for next treatment.

Jennifer Perry is so amazing! She was honest, helpful and made sure that the service I received was customized perfectly to my needs. Her professionalism made the whole experience just wonderful. I'm absolutely excited for future visits!

Billie Jo is awesome and the renovation of the spa is beautiful!

Naomi and the staff is amazing. The personalized experience and relaxing vibe is top notch.

I just had Sculpsure done last week and Dr. Alison and her staff were AMAZING! They made me feel incredibly comfortable during the procedure and they are extremely nice.

Dr. Alison was very honest in regards to how the procedure would feel like before it happened, and how it would feel afterwards - so I knew exactly what to expect. Dr. Alison and her assistant were with me during the entire time I was there, talking to me and making sure I was comfortable and distracted during the Sculpsure procedure.

I wouldn't trust anyone else, Essent Spa is THE BEST place to have your Sculpsure done!

Wonderful relaxing spa experience- my daughter had teen facial with Lis and she was very happy with results! Mom (me) closed her eyes in the relaxation room and had complimentary glass of wine!

Love Naomi & how easy she is to get in with. Great flexible scheduling & great service!

Essent Spa is fantastic! I am pregnant and have tried the "gentle facial" appropriate for expectant mothers and love the results. The spa is tranquil and Dr. Allison and her staff are very welcoming and kind. I am looking forward to trying lots of other treatments after my baby is born.

Fantastic massage with Stacey. Honestly the best massage i have ever had. Nice and relaxing environment.

I had a fabulous spa day with my daughter at Essent Spa. First I had the really effective Gentle Laser Hair Removal and then I was able to have the Essent Laser Rejuvenator on the same day because it was so gentle. Finally I was able to remove those dark and red spots on my face. The technician removed spots I hadn't even noticed, including spots on my forehead and the extreme sides of my face (which I can't really see.)

The laser rejuvenator did not hurt at all. First the technician applied a topical anethesia and it clearly worked. The frozen facial mask at the end of the treatment further soothed me.

I was able to go out to dinner that night. Now, it's been two days since my fun spa day and now

Hetal was my masseuse & Nothing short of amazing could describe her masterful art, the most beautiful deep tissue massage I have ever received! Doing massage therapy for 15 years. My wife Angela had Chris as her hot stone session and was delighted and so relaxed beyond compare! We both agreed this is our new happy place and are returning sooner than expected lol! Namaste...

Carolina is wonderful. She is very knowledgeable and has helped with my neck and shoulder injury. Carolina doesn't just do an excellent massage, she provides input and stretching exercises.

Jen is amazing! I've returned for my treatment and the results have been INCREDIBLE both times. I've received endless compliments. I won't go anywhere else!

Absolutely fabulous experience with Heather. Had several appointments at Essent for different procedures and was truly impressed with the quality of service and the expertise of the professionals.

This was an amazing experience! Exceptional staff, amazing products, and a great way to spend time with friends. Will be back!

When you walk in, the scent is lovely. The staff very helpful and I was lead to a back room that was pleasantly quiet...a MUST for spas. My Esthetician was AMAZING...short, blond with glasses..sorry forgot her name...but so , so good!! I felt light and beautiful when I left!

I would highly recommend the services at this spa! Liz is awesome!!! I ll be back for sure!

Loved my facial with Adriene, I left feeling relaxed and thoroughly replenished! The products felt gentle and had a clean botanical scent, looking forward to trying my products at home!

I have seen both Dr Alison and Heather at Essent Spa. Both were very professional and very informative. They really took the time to sit down and personalize my services. Highly recommend.

I am so happy with the professionalism at Essent Spa. Dr. Ali is very attentive and takes time with her patients to explain the different options offered at Essent Spa. She then suggests which plan of action would benefit the most. I have been a customer for several years and I trust her judgment and the care from her well-trained staff.

This spa is a gem. I am never disappointed and always leave feeling relaxed and reenergized. Recently my stress has been showing all over my face, so I scheduled an appointment with Billie Jo for a facial and booked a chemical peel to address new blemishes and acne.

Billie Jo spent a lot of time looking at my skin and suggested a microneedling procedure to supercharge my skin repair and recovery. She did an amazing job of explaining everything and because of my very sensitive skin type wrote up a new skincare regimen for me to tackle and prevent future issues. She was so thoughtful and patient answering all my questions and my skin has never looked better. This will now be a regular part of my skincare routine and I couldn t be more thankful to Billie Jo for suggesting the treatment that gave me the results I wanted without a lot of fuss or upselling. I ll be back again and again!

Kind people, great service, elegant space. Highly recommend. Best I have been to in the Philadelphia area

Wonderful experience
Professional staff that was very helpful
Clean, modern facility
Added benefit was stretching exercises you can do at home

I m honestly not sure where to begin with how much I love Essent Spa! First off, huge shoutout to Lis- she is the sweetest person ever. Not only is she knowledgeable and a pro at what she does but she s also just so much fun to talk to and makes me look forward to my appointments!

I ve been going for a while for laser scar treatments after a nasty attack on my face which really left me feeling sad and insecure about the scars left behind. Nowadays, you can barely tell anything happened!

The owner Dr. Allison is also wonderful and even answered her phone when I called unknowingly when the spa was closed! She clearly is passionate about what she does and was able to give me great advice on how to proceed with my care and is just brilliant.

Post treatment, you can bet I ll still be going for facials, etc (I literally moved away from the mainline to the city and still can t think of going anywhere else). The atmosphere is beautiful and makes you feel super pampered. If you want to treat yourself or need scars treated, or a number of other beauty treatments, you re in good hands here!

The staff is amazing and they have the best masseuses I have found in the area. More expensive massage but you get your money s worth!

A+ to Billie Jo!!! She is a wonderful addition to Essent Spa. Extremely thorough and knowledgeable about skin care and maintenance. Essent Spa delivers a relaxing, clean experience.

Essent Spa was amazing ! My girl made the experience very comfortable and personal which totally made the difference :)

I ve been a big fan of Dr. Alison ever since I got laser hair removal at Main Line Plastic Surgery several years ago. I followed Dr. Alison to her Essent Spa and loved the spa experience too.

Dr. Alison s laser hair removal has been life changing. Previously before getting laser hair removal, it was a big ordeal to shave to wear a bathing suit. Now after getting laser hair removal, wearing a bathing suit requires no preparation. Likewise, my arms were hairy like a man s and now they re smooth and hairless.

I m so grateful for Dr. Alison and Essent Spa s laser hair removal. I previously had gone to dermatologists for laser hair removal and their machines did nothing.

On my most recent visit to Essent Spa, in addition to getting a laser hair removal treatment, I had a chemical peel and facial on the same day. It was so gentle I could do it all in one visit. I look forward to many more visits to Essent Spa.

I had a great experience with Julie! She catered the whole experience to my skin and gave me tips moving forward for what products to use and treatments to do. She followed up after - very personal and great experience!

Heather is both friendly and professional, and does fantastic work. I highly recommend Essent Spa for atmosphere, quality, and kindness and attentiveness of staff!

What a fabulous experience! A beautiful spa. First class service. I received an amazing massage from Danielle. Highly professional and very personable. I would highly recommend Essent Spa to those looking for a high-end resort like experience.

Thank you for the wonderful, professional and friendly Essent Spa! I deeply appreciate the expertise and sensitivity that Adrienne provided with my facial. I feel fabulous and my skin is glowing - thank you :)

Naomi was wonderful ! She was friendly, explained everything in great detail and the environment was calming and a beautiful space. Will definitely be back.

Dr. Abiri and Irene took excellent care of me during my visit one week ago. From the phone conversation, to the in-person consultation, to the spa's ambiance, right to the desired service(s) and excellent product line, everything about Essent Spa was top-echelon. What are you waiting for? Book now!!

I had a wonderful experience at Essent Spa. The staff is professional and takes as much time as you need explaining options and recommendations. The spa itself is beautiful and relaxing. I received a follow up to make sure I was satisfied and I love that they offer a free facial with treatment! I am looking forward to my next experience!

I have had SculpSure as well as a facial with dermaplaning at Essent Spa. I have to admit that I was a skeptic about SculpSure. I could not believe my results 6 weeks after my first treatment, I am THRILLED!!!!! I am booked for next treatment. I had SculpSure above my C-section incision where I had a stubborn area of fat. I am no longer a skeptic, I feel great in my jeans again! I also loved my facial and dermaplaning, my skin felt amazing and my treatment ended with much needed time in the spas tranqulity room with a warm eye compress and hot tea. Essent Spa is a must visit!!

Everyone at essent spa makes sure that you are comfortable and taken care of, even when going through a very painful hair removal session I always leave with a smile. I would highly recommend Liz she's the best.

Omg very clean, relax, and friendly environment. I RECOMMEND THIS SPA TO EVERYONE!!! Excellent job!!!
