Certified Acne Facial Specialists in Austin
This beautiful patient came to us with persistent acne issues and was frustrated with other treatments that weren’t producing results. This improvement is after just four appointments (about three months):
- 4-DiamondGlow Treatments Using Pore Purifying Serum
- 1-SkinMedica Vitalize Peel
- 2-SkinMedica Rejuvanize Peels
- + Consistent home use of her SkinBetter Regimen
When the ‘after’ photo was taken, she had two appointments for DiamondGlow remaining, and then on to microneedling treatments for scar healing.

Why Choose a Chemical Peel as part of your Acne Treatment Plan?
- Rapidly resurfaces dull, uneven texture for a fresh, bright glow
- Targets resistant acne, congestion, and post-inflammatory marks
- Softens fine lines and helps refine visible texture & pores
- Improves pigmentation (scarring, sun spots, melasma, uneven tone)
- Boosts absorption of pro-grade skincare (Prescribed Acne Home Care)
⇐ This result is after only one peel.

RatingWhat a hidden golden nugget! Flanked between Tribe comic store and Jersey’s Mikes, Banyan and Bamboo harkens back to the groovy Austin days, when one enters a space and experiences a moment in its truest essence. This Day Med Spa emanates calmness and transcendence, where one can shed the weight of the day. The fact that licensed cosmetic injector, certified laser professional and advanced medical esthetician Brittany Cantu practices HERE is the pièce de résistance! Britt is confident, consistent, respectful and always keeps her patients’ health and well-being at the forefront of her practice. Her knowledge about skin health is extensive, and her injection experience and talents are unparalleled. THIS is an Austin find and a keeper!
The massage and facials at Banyan & Bamboo spa are excellent! Every member of the staff is knowledgeable, friendly and passionate about helping their clients. I love their high quality skin care products!
Grace the patient care co-ordinator was so kind, thorough & patien. Also very impressed with the aftercare package they sent me home with. My injector Gabby was A+, zero pain. Explained my options thoroughly for what I was looking to accomplish. So happy I came!
I had such an amazing experience at Banyan and Bamboo Med Spa! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and cared for. The spa environment is modern and chic, with an element of coziness and warmth. Dee is truly incredible at what she does. I booked a 50-minute massage with her, and it was one of the most relaxing and therapeutic massages I’ve ever had. She was attentive to exactly what my body needed and made sure I was completely comfortable the entire time. Afterward, I also had a Diamond Glow facial with her, which left my skin feeling so fresh, clean, and radiant. She explained the process step by step, and I could immediately see and feel the difference in my skin. I also tried the red light therapy during my visit, which was such a calming and unique experience — I left feeling recharged and glowing inside and out! I also want to mention Grace, who was so kind and professional when I came in for my B12 shot. She made the process quick and painless, and she has such a warm personality that instantly puts you at ease. Overall, this spa is a true gem. The staff goes above and beyond to make you feel pampered, cared for, and renewed. I can’t recommend Banyan and Bamboo enough, and I’m already looking forward to my next visit!
I go to Jennifer for facials and she is amazing. She’s incredibly knowledgeable about skin care and has helped me figure out which treatments my skin needs and when. Jennifer makes me feel comfortable and relaxed even during extractions.

I have great deep tissue massages with Sulema and Jackson. I have issues with my upper back and neck, and massage helps with managing my pain and gives me mobility. I'll be back as always! I highly recommend Banyan and Bamboo and have been here for lash extensions with Summer, and facials with Jennifer. I've also gotten medspa treatments with Gabby and am happy with the results. Everyone here is great and provide exceptional service.

Sulema was great! She talked me through the sports massage and recommended next steps for a recovery. Thank you!
This was the best massage and facial I’ve ever had. You will definitely not be disappointed and I highly recommend Dee for the massage and facial!
Such a wonderful first time experience with this med spa! Lindsey at the front desk was so incredibly friendly and helpful with all of my questions. Jen was phenomenal in all of her skincare knowledge, evaluation of my face before our facial, recommendations, and care throughout the service. Highly recommend for quality, cleanliness, professionalism and overall personality! I will definitely be going back.
All I have to say is Dee was OUTSTANDING!! I had so much tension and she worked it all out!! I feel AWESOME!!! Definitely coming back soon!!
