Our team brings extensive knowledge in skin health and aesthetics, ensuring personalized care rooted in medical precision.

He is highly qualified and I recommend him without hesitation. He and his office staff are professional, available and eager to make your experience a positive one.
Why Atlanta Residents Choose The K Spa
Atlanta ranks among the top 10 sunniest cities in the southeastern U.S., with an average of over 217 sunny days per year. That much sunshine can take a toll on your skin. In fact, studies show that up to 90% of visible skin aging is due to sun damage. Many Atlanta residents enjoy outdoor lifestyles—whether it’s walking the BeltLine, attending festivals in Piedmont Park, or commuting in bright conditions—so localized treatment and prevention strategies are essential.
With our location in Buckhead, The K Spa is ideally positioned to serve clients across Metro Atlanta, including Sandy Springs, Brookhaven, Decatur, and beyond. We understand how the unique climate and lifestyle of this area can impact your skin, and we tailor every treatment plan accordingly.
Our Targeted Sun Spot Treatments
Laser Therapy: Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)
The K Spa offers Cutera Limelight IPL therapy, a premier solution for targeting brown spots, freckles, and uneven pigmentation. This FDA-cleared device is specially designed to treat a variety of skin tones while minimizing the risk of burns.
- Ideal for fair to medium skin types
- Minimal downtime with redness fading in 24–48 hours
- Series of 3–6 sessions spaced 4 weeks apart recommended
- Safe, non-invasive, and performed by licensed medical professionals
Our team has years of experience with laser devices in diverse skin types and conditions, ensuring each patient receives treatment customized to their tone and sensitivity.
Customized Chemical Peels
Chemical peels remain one of the most reliable methods for addressing sun-damaged skin. We tailor each peel based on your skin type and goals. Peels gently exfoliate the outer layer of damaged skin and deliver pigment-fading ingredients for a brighter, smoother complexion.
- Includes glycolic acid, TCA, and blended peels
- Improves skin tone, texture, and clarity
- Treatment plans designed by our licensed medical aesthetician with oversight from Dr. Stong
For Atlanta residents dealing with cumulative sun damage, chemical peels can be a safe and effective alternative—or complement—to laser treatments, especially when paired with professional skincare.
At-Home Maintenance + Sun Protection
We believe in educating patients for long-term results. For lasting impact, we provide medical-grade skincare regimens to use at home. These include pigment inhibitors, retinoids, antioxidants, and mineral-based sunscreens designed to enhance and maintain your in-office results.
Dr. Stong and our aesthetic team help you understand not just what works—but why it works, with products that are only available through physician-directed practices.
