The season’s harvest of new spa treatments is ripe for the picking. We sampled a smorgasbord (a chore, we know) to bring you the cream of the crop.
Here, fall’s beauty bounty. Read it and reap.
Only Zzz’s Best
Squeeze your beauty sleep into a power nap with the new Recharge Overnight facial ($270) at The Beverly Hills Hotel Spa by La Prairie. Showcasing new Cellular Power Charge Night ($475) formulated to resurface, oxygenate, and energize the skin, the treatment repairs lackluster, saggy skin while you snooze. Rest easy knowing luxury standards for foofiness also apply to efficacy. 9641 Sunset Boulevard, at North Crescent Drive, Beverly Hills (310-887-2505 or beverlyhillshotel.com).
Pimple Patrol
Adult acne is such a cruel oxymoron. Let skin care guru Sonya Dakar zap those zits with her Clarifying NutraSphere facial. The 55-minute treatment ($250 for DailyCandy readers) incorporates a probiotic anti-acne complex, mega exfoliation, volcanic clay mask, and custom moisturizer. The result? A blemish-free complexion every tween will envy. 9975 South Santa Monica Boulevard, at Little Santa Monica Boulevard (310-553-7344 or sonyadakarskinclinic.com).
Sashay! Shante!
A cellulite-free physique (once the exclusive purview of Gisele and her ilk) can now be yours. The Supermodel Body treatment ($150) at Dr. Nicholas Perricone’s new Malibu boutique, Super, smooths lumps and bumps with an ultrasonic exfoliation followed by a body comb treatment. A slathering of chili pepper-infused moisturizer helps hide varicose veins and boost circulation. Work it. 3822 Cross Creek Road, between Pacific Coast Highway and Civic Center Way, Malibu (310-405-7779 or getsuper.com).
Hair-monious
If your bad hair day is now going on a month, give Yoshi Hair Studio a ring. The one-on-one tutorials with styling master Yoshi Hagiwara have become a mane attraction. During the 60-minute session ($200), you’ll discover what styles best suit you as well as how to execute those looks at home. A deep-conditioning treatment by Hagiwara himself is a bonus. 450 North Canon Drive, at Little Santa Monica Boulevard (310-285-9910 or yoshihairstudio.com).

When it comes to massages, we run hot and cold. But the Fire & Ice treatment ($155) at The Ritz-Carlton Spa is totally chill. After you get a full-body geothermal mud mask, your masseuse gives you a thorough kneading using hot and cold stones simultaneously. Trust us, it rocks.
