Cocoon Urban Day Spa

Owner Sarah Redmond founded this Bay Area spa in 2007; now she also runs sister locations in Oakland, Russian Hill and Union Square. You’ll find no cheesy accents or outdated decor here. The pristine space is soothingly modern, aglow with lanterns and swathed in wood. The spa claims a loyal following for its skin-brightening dermaplaning facials using a tailored potion of lotions, masks, and serums by Decleor, Latisse and Skinceuticals. (You can also add an alpha beta peel, oxygen blast or glycolic acid peel to any treatment.) It pays to be a regular: Join the membership program and receive 20 percent off weekly, bi-monthly or monthly massages.
