Chemical peels can be great for skin that's too sensitive for microdermabrasion. They still help even skin tone and exfoliate, but without being abrasive. One we love: Kinara Red Carpet Facial Kit, $95, this three-step system gives spa-worthy results and you can use it more than once. Want a peel in one step? Try Peter Thomas Roth Un-Wrinkle Peel Pads, $45, each container has at least a two-month supply.

Cellulite Massage (average spa cost: $115 per session)
Get the same effects of a stimulating cellulite massage with the Wellbox Lipo Massage Machine, $1,722. Not only does it help with cellulite but it also firms skin and reduces wrinkles (you can even use it on your face). Since you'd need to have multiple treatments in a spa to actually see any results, with this machine you can buy it once and use it indefinitely, making it a better bargain.

Facial Exercise (average spa cost: $2,500)
Get the benefits of a spa toning and tightening treatment like Thermage (minus the recovery time and possible pain) with an at-home facial exerciser. The FaceTrainer by no!no!, $200 claims to smooth away wrinkles, lift sagging skin and improve skin tone up to 97 percent in 60 days. Basically you wear the mask and perform a series of exercises (the mask provides resistance).
