But zero in on the way she harnesses that power and translates it into real-world results, and you'll likely do a double take. Distinguished as one of Charleston's leading body sculpting and anti-aging skin care centers, The Spa at West Ashley is known for creating a VIP experience for every patient who walks through their door. Trading pressure for trust, Jessica's highly trained team offers everything from HydraFacials to permanent makeup, but they are intentional about making sure technique and service never supersede a patient's peace of mind.
