Bamford Wellness Spa and Face Gym, 1 Hotel West Hollywood

The 1 Hotel West Hollywood is home to not one, but two wellness destinations. Bamford Wellness Spa was created by organic-wellness expert Carole Bamford to nurture the body, mind and spirit. The spa’s Red Carpet Sculpt Facial targets the deeper layers of the skin through gua sha face massage and cryotherapy for a more radiant, sculpted and firmer-looking face. 

Right at the hotel’s entrance is FaceGym, touted as the world’s only “gym studio for the face.” Concentrating on the muscles first, the “trainers” literally put your face through the same paces as your body with a warm-up, cardio, sculpt and cool-down through a series of hand movements, skincare products and high-tech tools. You’ll never look at a facial the same way again.
