About this business

Maksim is an intimate spa devoted to providing exceptional, personalized service in a relaxing atmosphere. launched in January of 2000 by aesthetician Lena Makushina, Maksim became an instant success and quickly developed a reputation as the place to go for clients who take skin care seriously.

She wanted to create her own place, on a smaller scale, as a skin c... read more

Best facial in Manhattan!!! – I've been seeing Lena regularly for almost three years, and have recommended her to all of my friends. She is always thorough, attentive, and most of all consistent. I have never felt that she rushed through a facial, or had another customer to get to. I particularly like that she doesn't pressure me to buy products. Sometimes she will tell me that I need to exfoliate more (which I know I should), and will ask why I'm not doing so- but that's as far as her sales pitch goes. If anything, I feel t... read more

Best Facial in NYC and Unparalleled Service – I first visited Maksim Spa over a year ago after moving to the city and not knowing where to turn for a great facial. A friend had recomended i try Maksim and i was more than pleasantly surprised afterwards. I have been going to Lena every 6 weeks now and my skin has not only improved significantly but the products i use in between have changed everything about my skin. I walked in there with problem skin and can now safely say that now only is my skin glowing and under control b... read more

Fabulous Facial, Noticeable Results & Personal Attention – I have made facials with Lena a regular part of my routine now that my skin is noticeably different after 2 visits! On top of that, the attention to detail and personal attentiveness is unmatched in this city. It's just a relaxing, calming experience at Maksim, where you walk out feeling fabulous, knowing that your skin has really been taken care of -- I've honestly never had someone care so much about my face as Lena! Believe me - you'll want to try it, and then you... read more

fantastic in every way – The owner involvement is what makes the experience so fabulous. Under her watchful eye, all products are purchased and services performed to their utmost quality. This place compares favorably to any others I have tried for years in the city. Clean and meticulous, I encourage everyone to try and the price point is kind to the pocketbook.

Great place – Bright and meticulously clean rooms, friendly and accommodating staff, and the best facial I've had in NYC. The time I spent at Maksim Spa not only made my complexion sparkle but also renewed my spirit. Lena will be seeing me frequently, as visiting her spa has become a "must do" on my list. I highly recommend it!

Not Worth the HYPE!!! Ladies get Brazilians somewhere else. – After being a client for 2 years I am leaving because of poor customer service. I was in love with the warm and gentle personality of Angela the technician but since she has left the owner continued to make me wonder why pay the extra money to be continuously insulted by her rude and cold behavior. It is required that you leave a credit card number to book an appointment...even after leaving a credit number my appointment was given to someone else. I was furious b... read more

Amazing – I never had acne as a child but in my thirties I started suffering from adult acne. After going to several dermatologists with no real results, I was referred to Lena and all I can say is wow! The facials are intense and Lena does an exceptional job. The bottom line is; I've been going there for a couple of years now, am acne free and receive compliments like "you're face is glowing". I would totally recommend this place, it's worth every dime.

Best Facial in NYC – One of my best friends used to rave about her facials at Maksim spa. After trying many of the other spas in New York and not feeling 100% satisfied- Great Jones, Bliss, and Mario Bedescus...I decided to take my friends recommendation and try Lena at Maksim Spa. (Lena is one of the 2 sisters who owns the spa.) Let's just say I went for a facial about 5 years ago- and have gone regularly ever since! She is extremely thorough, knowledgeable, and leaves my skin looking extremely hydrated and perfectly clear.... read more
