The Method

Most facials treat your skin.
Vera Pelle treats what's beneath it.

The face is a structural system — bone, muscle, fascia, lymphatic pathways. Every line, every area of laxity, every asymmetry has a cause underneath the surface. Zhanna trained inside an Eastern European tradition where that structure is sculpted directly by hand. The result is closer to manual sculpting than to a resort facial.

The Specialist

Trained where facial massage
is medicine.

In Eastern Europe and Russia, facial massage was developed inside the clinical manual-technique tradition — not the beauty industry. The training is anatomically rigorous, structurally deep, and rooted in how fascia, lymph, and musculature actually function.

Zhanna trained in that tradition. What she does to the face is closer to what a facial sculpting specialist does — releasing structural holding patterns through hands alone that no serum, device, or injectable can reach.

The opening line of her story is unusual: I fixed my own skin first. A fifteen-year career managing oil-and-gas supply contracts in Moscow, a lifelong eczema neurodermatitis, and the moment she discovered that lymphatic technique worked on her own face when nothing else did. The training came after the proof.

Clinical Results

What clients write
after the work.

I spent over $15,000 on facials and lymphatic treatments, but nothing truly worked until I saw Zhanna. Her buccal and lymphatic massage released years of tension in my TMJ and jaw. Within hours the puffiness was noticeably reduced. For the first time in fifteen years, I feel like myself again.

TripAdvisor · Buccal + Lymphatic Protocol

I've had numerous facials in my day, and this was by far the most unique and rejuvenating. Zhanna covered what ingredients I should be using, what to avoid. I have never dozed off during a facial — but I did. I was truly shocked. It was that relaxing while focusing on real structural results.

TripAdvisor · European Face Lifting Protocol

The best buccal facial I've ever had, no question. Zhanna's knowledge of facial anatomy is at a completely different level than anyone I've seen before. You can feel the difference immediately — structurally, not just superficially. Worth every cent and then some.
