Elume Medspa is a medical spa in Fairfax, Virginia, and it treats patients from Centreville, which sits about eight miles west along Route 29. The practice has run since 2009 out of a single private suite on Blenheim Boulevard, and every treatment is provided under the care of Shaheen Ghafari, a licensed Nurse Practitioner. Centreville is well supplied with salons and day spas. What it lacks is a clinical setting for injectables, radiofrequency devices and vein work, and that is the gap this practice fills.
Route 29 the entire way, no highway involved
The drive from Centreville is unusual for this part of Northern Virginia because it never touches an interstate. Route 29 leaves Centreville heading east and simply keeps going, becoming Main Street as it reaches the old Fairfax town grid; from there it is one turn onto North Street and a short block to Blenheim Boulevard. Measured door to door the distance is a little under eight miles and the trip normally takes about twenty minutes. Traffic on that stretch is steady rather than severe, and the building has its own lot at street level with no charge to park.
What Centreville patients book most
The service list here leans clinical. These are the appointments Centreville residents ask for most often:
- Sclerotherapy for visible surface veins on the legs, a treatment few day spas offer at all.
- Microneedling with PRP, which pairs collagen induction with platelet-rich plasma drawn during the same visit.
- Laser hair removal, booked either for individual facial areas or as a full-body course.
- Injectables, meaning Botox, Dysport and dermal fillers, placed by our Nurse Practitioner.
- Morpheus8, the radiofrequency microneedling platform used for skin laxity and texture.
The full list, including microdermabrasion and cosmetic tattooing, sits on the treatments page.
Why Centreville residents drive east for this
Centreville sits at the far western edge of the county, so most local options are retail skincare rather than medical. The difference at Elume Medspa is who is holding the device and what the device is. The practice has operated in Fairfax since 2009, holds a 4.6-star rating across more than 45 Google reviews, and puts each treatment under the care of a licensed Nurse Practitioner. Consultations are free, and their job is to establish whether a given treatment is a sensible fit before anything is scheduled.
Planning the trip
Twenty minutes each way makes this a comfortable half-morning rather than a day out. A consultation runs about thirty minutes. Injectable follow-up visits are short. Device appointments such as Morpheus8 need a longer block, because numbing time is part of the visit rather than something you arrive having done. We tell you at booking how much of the day to set aside, so the return leg along Route 29 can be planned rather than guessed at.

Questions we get from Centreville
What is the fastest way in from Centreville?
Route 29 eastbound, and stay on it. It becomes Main Street at the edge of old town Fairfax, then North Street takes you to Blenheim Boulevard. Around twenty minutes in normal conditions, and you never need I-66 or the Beltway.
Is there parking, and does it cost anything?
There is a free lot attached to the building, and the suite entrance is at ground level. No garage, no meters.
Do you have Saturday appointments?
Yes. The practice is open Monday through Saturday, 10am to 5pm, and Saturday slots are popular with patients coming from the western end of the county. The live calendar on the scheduling page shows what is actually open.
Which other towns nearby have their own page?
Several. Chantilly is the closest, and there are pages for Burke and Vienna as well. The contact page carries directions from any starting point.
