Types of Facials We Offer

Collagen Facial

Collagen is the key. This treatment consists of deep skin cleansing, using products appropriate for your skin type. This includes blackhead extraction, skin disinfection, light exfoliation, a mask, moisturizer and SPF. Rejuvenate your complexion by replenishing its natural supply of this essential building block for smoother, firmer-looking skin. It's an ideal first treatment for clients just starting on their medical aesthetics journey, and is also appropriate for general healthy skin maintenance.

Acne Facial

This facial soothes acne-prone skin to help reset pores and calm inflammation. This includes deep cleansing, concentration on extractions using products specific to this skin condition, light chemical exfoliation to help kill bacteria on the skin and facilitate the extraction process, and the application of high-frequency energy to close pores and reduce inflammation. The Acne Facial ends with a cooling, refreshing mask explicitly designed for acne-prone skin. Your aesthetician will also recommend home care products to help you maintain clearer skin until your next facial.

Back Facial

A back facial is designed to help clear blackheads and reduce breakouts on the skin on the back. This facial includes deep cleansing, steaming, exfoliation, extractions, and disinfection of the skin. It ends with the application of a hydrating mask.

How to Prepare for Your Appointment

  • Bring a list of the skincare products you use at home so that your aesthetician can provide recommendations based on your skin’s needs.

  • Avoid performing any strong home facial treatments or exfoliation for the week prior so as to avoid irritating your skin.

  • Avoid sun exposure and/or tanning prior to your facial.

Facial Treatment Steps

Each facial is unique depending on your skin’s needs and your aesthetician’s recommendations for your skin. In general, your facial will include these steps:

  • Consultation - You’ll talk to your aesthetician about your skin and your goals, and provide more information about your daily habits and skincare.

  • Cleansing - Your aesthetician will thoroughly cleanse your skin to set a baseline for the process.

  • Skin analysis - Your aesthetician will take a closer look at your skin with a magnifying lens or lamp. This will give them more information about your skin type and any present conditions. This will guide the selection of ideal products to be applied during your facial.

  • Steam - Warm steam is applied to your face in a thin stream. This is both relaxing for the client and also helps prepare blackheads and whiteheads for extraction.

  • Exfoliation - An exfoliant is applied to remove the outer layer of dead skin. This can be a mechanical exfoliant (a gritty substance) or chemical exfoliant (a light peel).

  • Extraction - Blackheads and whiteheads are removed from clogged pores.

  • Facial massage and mask - Your skin is massaged to encourage muscle and skin stimulation and also relax you. A mask targeted to your unique skin type is also applied.

  • Serums and home guidance - Appropriate serums, moisturizer and sunscreen are applied, and your aesthetician discusses any recommended home products or practices for preserving your skin’s health and appearance.
