Rediscover the Art of Relaxation, Rejuvenation & Anti-Aging
Good friends and area entrepreneurs, Blake Henry and Tim Varney, recently teamed up to offer East Tennesseans an unprecedented array of innovative medical spa, spa, and salon services designed to exceed expectations.
Influenced in their daily business practices by their strong commitment to their families, Blake and Tim have made it a priority to instill these same values in their team members at Pure Luxe Salon, Spa & Medspa in nearby Hardin Valley and Spa Visage in the Downtown West area of Bearden, which they acquired in 2018. Additionally, they opened a second Pure Luxe Medspa location adjacent to Spa Visage in June.
Blake and Tim invite you to discover the difference their families can make in your daily lives by rediscovering the art of relaxation, rejuvenation, and anti-aging.
In this issue of Everything Knoxville, we are excited to share with our readers this recent interview with Blake and Tim.
EK: Share with our readers the vision behind both Pure Luxe and Spa Visage.
Tim: When Blake and I acquired Pure Luxe in June 2018, we did so with the goal of providing a comprehensive set of the most advanced, non-invasive aesthetic services to the Knoxville area. With the acquisition of Spa Visage in October 2018, we envisioned taking this highly-rated, award-winning spa to the next level by combining it with the large selection of medspa services available from Pure Luxe. We acquired the adjoining space next door to Spa Visage and opened the new Pure Luxe Medspa on June 25, 2019.
EK: Why was it important to you both to instill your strong sense of family values into your daily business lives and those of your team members?
Blake: Both Tim and I traveled extensively in the corporate world prior to acquiring both Pure Luxe and Spa Visage. The primary driver for us to depart from that career path was to be closer to our families. Both of our wives have taken active roles in our businesses, and Tim and I consider it a blessing to be around them every day. Our faith is at the forefront of everything we do, and our hope is that those around us see a biblical representation of marriage and family values.
EK: You have earned a reputation for your innovative approach to business. Tell our readers how they can benefit from the membership programs you offer.
Tim: Our membership programs offer clients the ability to take advantage of monthly complimentary spa services, discounts, and special perks. We offer three membership programs: Silver, Platinum, and Diamond. The Silver and Platinum memberships primarily focus on spa services. The Diamond membership focuses on medspa services with complimentary monthly spa services included. As an example, our first-of-its-kind Diamond membership allows clients year-round unlimited access to $8 Botox/Dysport, as well as $800 vouchers for dermal fillers and $400 vouchers for lasers. The vouchers alone offset the entire cost of moving from the Platinum to Diamond membership.
EK: How important is it to your clients that Pure Luxe and Spa Visage offer a full-range of medspa, spa, and salon services?
Blake: Tim and I believe that people want to develop strong relationships and trust with a facility that can take care of all of their needs in a singular location. The issue was that prior to Pure Luxe, there was not a facility in Knoxville that serviced all areas of self-care spa, medspa, and salon. With Pure Luxe Salon, Spa & Medspa in Hardin Valley, and the addition of Spa Visage and the adjoining Pure Luxe Medspa in Bearden, we are now able to serve all of Knoxville with a comprehensive, one-stop shop no matter where you live.
EK: Many of our readers already know that you offer CoolSculpting, but what other services do you offer that they may be unaware of?
Tim: We offer a full suite of services that include aesthetic, nail, salon, spa, and medspa services. In addition to CoolSculpting, our portfolio of medspa services include Botox/Dysport dermal fillers, laser skin rejuvenation, microneedling, platelet rich plasma, laser vein therapy, laser hair reduction, tattoo removal, and treatments for hyperhidrosis, women’s health, weight loss, hair loss, and wellness injections.
EK: What went into your decision to launch a second Pure Luxe Medspa location?
Blake: Our medspas offer the most wide reaching and advanced non-invasive procedures in the Knoxville area. The addition of our newly opened Bearden facility, adjoining Spa Visage, allows us to better serve Knoxville and the long-standing client base of Spa Visage. We are excited to be able to serve all of Knoxville in a way that a singular facility simply cannot.
EK: I guess it wouldn’t be an overstatement to say that the combined Pure Luxe and Spa Visage locations make you the largest medspa, spa, and salon in the entire Knoxville area, offering your clients the most comprehensive selection of services available anywhere.
Tim: Pure Luxe and Spa Visage have serviced the Knoxville area for a collective 30+ years. With nearly 17,000 combined square feet and 70+ employees, Blake and I feel that Pure Luxe and Spa Visage offer the most comprehensive set of services in this market. However, we are still continuing to incorporate the newest proven technologies, procedures, and services to ensure that we bring our clients the best available in the non-invasive aesthetic market.
EK: How can our readers learn more about Pure Luxe and Spa Visage? Do you offer facility tours?
Blake: Both of our facilities have a strong social media presence. By following us on Instagram (@pureluxespa and @spavisageknoxville) or liking us on Facebook (facebook.com/pureluxespa and facebook.com/spavisageknoxville), you can stay up to date with current offers and events. We also pride ourselves on staying at the forefront of product and procedure innovation. Both Instagram and Facebook are the best outlets for new product announcements and procedure education. Our websites (www.pureluxespa.com and www.spavisage.com) detail our services and offer extensive facility/staff pictures. Facility tours are encouraged for both prospective and first-time clients.
EK: In closing, is there anything else you would like to add?
Tim: We would like to take this moment to thank our clients and express our appreciation for their patronage and support throughout the past years. We are honored to have the opportunity to serve you.
Blake: I echo Tim’s comment. We consider it an honor to lead both of these businesses into the future and pledge to do so with integrity and a client focused mentality. We look forward to welcoming you to one of our facilities soon!
