Valeriya Dotsenko
As a native of Russia, I was always taught to take care of my skin. Since I was a teenager my mother told me to never go to bed without cleansing and moisturizing my face and I have always followed her advice.
I received my certification in aesthetics at Rizzieri Aveda school with the highest GPA and got licensed in both NJ and PA. The ever changing dynamic of the beauty industry requires one to stay on the top of the latest ingredients and cutting edge technologies. Therefore I attended post graduate classes at International Dermal Institute in NYC and International Congress of Esthetics and SPA regularly and developed a vast knowledge in various skin types and the secrets to obtaining a glowy complexion.
I was drawn to Rescue Spa’s philosophy, the combination of mind and body wellness with the latest innovative techniques in skin care, promises a relaxing and professional atmosphere for your treatment.
I’m thrilled to be a part of the Rescue family helping people to look and feel their best. I take pride in making the world more beautiful, more confident, more relaxing and less hairy.
