Facial in Encinitas, San Diego
KIAMO Skin provides facial treatments to Encinitas residents facing daily coastal exposure from Moonlight Beach, Swami's, and the Cardiff border.
Located in Mission Hills at 3067 Reynard Way, the studio is about 25 minutes south via I-5. Every facial is performed by Kiki, a California licensed esthetician with 7+ years of experience, calibrated for every Fitzpatrick type I-VI. Encinitas clients choose KIAMO for surfer barrier repair, UV-driven pigmentation support, and pre-event facials that respect the skin.
Coastal and surfer-lifestyle facial protocols
Encinitas is one of San Diego's most surf-intensive communities — Swami's, Cardiff Reef, and the Moonlight Beach breaks produce clients who spend hours in salt water daily. That lifestyle creates barrier breakdown, mineral and zinc-oxide buildup, and accelerated photoaging. KIAMO Skin uses HydraFacial Syndeo with AI skin analysis to identify and treat coastal damage, Lira chemical peels at Fitzpatrick-calibrated concentrations for pigmentation, and DMK enzyme therapy for barrier repair. Kiki has 7+ years treating coastal skin and understands the difference between daily surfers and occasional beachgoers. The single-practitioner model means continuity — the person who reads your skin today is the one who treats it.

How a facial works at KIAMO Skin
Every facial follows a three-step structure with modality chosen to match your skin on the day.
Assessment
Kiki evaluates your skin tone (Fitzpatrick I-VI), concern, and the right modality. For Encinitas clients, this includes salt-exposure history, current surf or beach frequency, and UV history.
Treatment
Sessions are 45-75 minutes. HydraFacial Syndeo uses Vortex-Fusion extraction. Lira peels use Fitzpatrick-calibrated concentrations. DMK enzyme therapy rebuilds barrier function. Dermaplaning refines surface texture.
Homecare
Daily homecare extends the result. Ceramide-rich moisturizers for barrier repair, broad-spectrum SPF 50+ for coastal lifestyle, tyrosinase inhibitors when pigmentation is a concern.
Who books a facial in Encinitas
Encinitas clients book facials for surfer barrier repair, UV-driven pigmentation support, pre-event preparation (weddings at the Encinitas Ranch or coastal venues), or as the foundation of a longer corrective plan addressing sun damage, melasma, or barrier breakdown. KIAMO is the right fit when the priority is one practitioner who understands coastal skin, protocols safe across every Fitzpatrick type, and treatment plans that respect the surf or beach lifestyle rather than fighting it.
