Facials
What are Facials?
Facials are fundamental, multi-step skin treatments designed to cleanse, exfoliate, nourish, and revitalize the skin. A professional facial promotes a clear, well-hydrated, and youthful complexion. Our facials typically begin with a thorough deep cleaning and skin analysis performed by a skilled aesthetician to identify specific needs and concerns. This is followed by mechanical and/or chemical exfoliation (often through gentle scrubs, enzymes, or treatments like dermaplaning) to remove dead skin cells and clear congested pores. The process concludes with the application of high-quality, clinical-grade serums, targeted masks and intense moisturizers, leaving the skin refreshed and protected.

To maintain optimal skin health and keep your complexion radiant, we generally recommend scheduling a professional facial every four to six weeks. This timing aligns with the skin's natural cellular turnover cycle. Consistent treatments ensure the removal of dead skin cells, prevent congestion, maintain product penetration, and provide continuous nourishment to the skin's deepest layers.

It is absolutely essential to inform your aesthetician about all prescription topical products you use, such as Retin-A, before your appointment. Depending on your current skin condition and the strength of the prescription, we may need to adjust the treatment — for example, by avoiding aggressive exfoliation or certain chemical peels. If you have active, inflamed acne, your aesthetician will customize the facial to focus primarily on gentle cleansing, soothing masks, and light extractions to prevent further irritation.
