New: Facial Memberships!

Why we created the “Anti-Membership," how it works, and why your skin is begging for a routine, not a contract.

Let’s be honest: The word "membership" usually comes with some baggage.

If you live in New York, you’ve probably been burned before. You picture impossible cancellation policies, credits that vanish into thin air if you skip a month, and fine print so small you need a legal team to interpret it. You sign up with the best intentions, but then… life happens. Work gets crazy, you travel, or you just don’t feel like going in. And suddenly, that "self-care" routine feels like a monthly guilt trip.

You want the glowing skin, but you don't want the handcuffs.

We get it. At Nios Spa, we looked at the traditional spa membership model and realized it was broken. It was built for the business, not for the client. So, we decided to burn the rulebook and reinvent the concept entirely.

Introducing The Nios Anti-Membership.

It’s a ritual, not a contract. It’s a way to keep your skin cleansed, bright, and cared for without overthinking it. And most importantly, it’s designed to fit your actual life—not an idealized version of it where you never get busy.

Electrolysis works by targeting each individual hair follicle with a tiny, sterile tip that delivers a precise amount of heat or chemical energy. This process destroys the follicle’s ability to regrow hair, making it a permanent solution. Once the follicle is gone, it doesn’t regenerate. 

Before we talk about the perks (and there are a lot of them), let’s talk about why we built this.

Most people treat facials like a luxury car wash—something they do once or twice a year before a big event or when their skin is acting up. And while a single facial is great for a temporary glow, it doesn't create long-term change.

Skin health is cumulative. It’s exactly like going to the gym. If you do one intense workout a year, you aren't going to see muscles. But if you do a moderate workout once a month? That’s when the transformation happens.

Your skin cells turn over roughly every 28 days. As we age, that process slows down, leading to dullness, congestion, and texture. A monthly facial aligns perfectly with your body’s natural cycle. It clears out the dead cells from the last cycle and preps the new cells coming to the surface.

By committing to a monthly routine, you aren't just "treating yourself"; you can:

1. Prevent Breakouts

Regular extractions stop congestion before it becomes a cystic problem.

2. Delay Aging

Consistent stimulation (like massage and professional exfoliation) boosts collagen production over time.

3. Save Money

Prevention is cheaper than correction.

We called it this because we stripped away everything people hate about joining a membership. We wanted your routine to feel like freedom, not an obligation.

Here is how we made it totally flexible:

1. The "Roll Over Everything"

Rule Miss a month? No panic. Unlike other spas where you "use it or lose it," your credit rolls over automatically. It stays valid for a full year. Did you skip January and February? Great—come in March and get a deluxe treatment, or buy a bunch of products. You don’t lose the value you paid for.

2. Use It On Anything

Maybe your skin looks great this month, but you really want to try Electrolysis permanent hair removal. Or maybe you just ran out of your favorite serum. Go ahead. Your membership credit isn't just for facials. You can use it toward any treatment or product in the spa. You are the boss of your budget.

3. Pause When You Need

To Heading to the Hamptons for the summer? Going on a long work trip? We get it. You can pause your membership without a penalty. We know holidays are needed sometimes, and we won't punish you for taking them.

4. Share the Glow

This is a client favorite. If you have accrued credits and simply can’t make it in, you can gift your credit to a friend. It’s the perfect last-minute birthday gift or a way to treat someone who needs a pick-me-up.

When you join The Anti-Membership, you aren't just getting a generic "wipe-down." You get access to our core lineup of targeted facials. Whether your skin is thirsty, tired, or acting out, we have a protocol for it.

Note: Your membership credit covers either a 30-minute or 60-minute session depending on your tier, applicable to our core facial menu:

1. Anti-Aging Facial (The "Bounce Back")

If your skin is feeling tired or lacking that youthful snap, this is your go-to. The star of this show is Electroporation, a technology often described as a "needle-free injection" that uses mild electrical pulses to stimulate collagen and restore the skin's bounce. In the full 60-minute session, we combine this tech with a double cleanse, exfoliation with steam, thorough extractions, and a potent serum infusion. We finish it off with a soothing Hydrojelly Mask and Cryotherapy to lock everything in, leaving you sculpted and revitalized.

2. Aqua Facial (The "Deep Clean")

Perfect for city living, this facial acts like a vacuum for your pores. It utilizes Diamond Hydrodermabrasion to deep-clean and refine skin texture, gently buffing away debris while simultaneously infusing hydration. It is the ultimate reset if you are feeling congested or gritty. The 60-minute Indulgence version is a texture masterclass, layering the Hydrodermabrasion with serum infusion, Electroporation for deeper product penetration, and that satisfying Hydrojelly Mask finish to ensure you walk out glowing, not red.

3. Resurfacing (The "New You")

When you need to hit the reset button on dullness, the Resurfacing facial delivers by promoting cell renewal and radiance. We use a Pro Power Chemical Peel—a controlled, professional exfoliation that dissolves the "glue" holding dead skin cells together to reveal the fresh, bright skin underneath. Don't worry about downtime; the full 60-minute session balances the peel with a double cleanse, extractions, and Cryotherapy to instantly cool and calm the skin so you leave looking fresh, not inflamed.

4. Dermaplaning (The "Smooth Operator")

This is the secret to that "glass skin" look. Dermaplaning gently removes dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (“peach fuzz”) to create an incredibly smooth canvas for makeup. If you have an event coming up or just love the feeling of ultra-smooth skin, this is the one. In the 60-minute session, we ensure your skin is pampered with a double cleanse, extractions, a targeted serum, and a Hydrojelly Mask, so you get all the benefits of exfoliation with none of the irritation.

Not sure which one you need? Don’t worry. Our estheticians analyze your skin every single time you come in. You don’t need to know the menu; you just need to show up.

We kept it simple with two tiers. Both offer the exact same flexibility, they just cater to how much time you have.

The Essential (For the Minimalist)

- The Ritual: 30 minutes of renewal.

- Perfect For: The busy New Yorker who needs a quick refresh and maintenance.

- Cost: $80/mo (Standard price $100).

The Indulgence (For the Glow-Getter)

- The Ritual: 60 minutes of transformation.

- Perfect For: Someone who wants the full sensory experience—massage, deep work, and total relaxation.

- Cost: $130/mo (Standard price $160).

Your membership unlocks more than just a facial; it gives you insider pricing on everything else we do. We stacked the membership with perks that actually save you money on the things you’re already doing.

- 20% Off Retail Products: Stop buying skincare at the drugstore. Get professional-grade products for less.

- 10% Off Electrolysis: If you are also on a hair removal journey, this membership is here to support you with that.

- Priority Access: You get priority waitlist access, exclusive member promotions and the VIP treatment you deserve.

We believe in total transparency. There is no fine print. There is only one commitment: A 3-month minimum.

Why 3 months? Because, as we mentioned earlier, that is the biological window required to see a real change in your skin. We want you to see the results. We want you to get past the "purge" phase and into the "glow" phase.

After those three months? You can cancel anytime. No hard feelings. But we have a feeling that once you see what consistent care does for your face (and your stress levels), you won’t want to leave.
