About Beauty For Ashes

Beauty is so much more than skin deep. It is also who we are on the inside. In Isaiah 61 it talks of the Lord’s blessing and restoration upon his people. While I can provide services to help achieve your skin care goals and hopefully improve your self-confidence, only the Lord can take away the feelings of shame, guilt, bitterness, and inadequacy that can leave us ugly on the inside.

Dawn Leyba

I am a God and people loving, passionate aesthetician with over 10 years of experience working with doctors and plastic surgeons. I have been blessed to be trained on everything from lasers and permanent makeup to assisting in plastic surgery and wound care. I love what I do and being able to help others feel good about themselves! I am now venturing out on my own to use my acquired skills and knowledge.

    5 star review  I've been to many aestheticians over the years. Dawn is by far the most skilled and talented! She's honest with her assessment of your skin and what will be the best service or course of treatment. You will not find this level of service at most day spas. Dawn is worth every penny!

    5 star review  Dawn is AMAZING!! She is not only very talented she is the sweetest. Her skills are above average and you can tell she puts her heart and soul into what she does. She addresses all of your aesthetic needs and concerns. She is also extremely knowledgeable when it comes to acne (which is extremely hard to get under control). I highly recommend Dawn and her aesthetic skills!!

    5 star review  I saw Dawn for a facial and to have a mole removed from my nose. It was my first time visiting an esthetician, and it turned out to be an incredible experience. Dawn has truly mastered the art of creating a welcoming and warm environment. She made sure to explain every step of the process, which made me feel comfortable and informed throughout. After seeing her, my skin felt absolutely amazing. Plus, the mole removal healed perfectly. I can't recommend her enough, both personally and professionally!

    5 star review  Dawn was wonderful. Answered all of my questions and recommended effective skincare as well as lifestyle advice for my skin health. She also never made me feel ashamed for how I had been taking care of my skin 😉 I definitely plan to keep visiting because I have already learned so much from her about how I can improve my skin health.

    5 star review  I started seeing Dawn only a few months ago after having been diagnosed & treated for a small spot of basal cell carcinoma on my face. Dawn is extremely knowledgeable about the health and beauty of skin, she cares and listens to my questions and concerns. I'm always curious about what she is using and the amazing fragrance of her products. Her professional and friendly customer service is great and I love the soothing christian music she plays while she works! She is helping my skin look and feel healthy as I continue to age and deal with what naturally comes with that. Thanks Dawn!
