Our custom facials are planned around your skin that day. Your aesthetician looks at your skin, asks about your routine and chooses the cleansing, exfoliation, extractions and masks that make sense for you.
Because the facial is done in a dermatology practice, your aesthetician can flag anything that needs a closer look from one of our medical providers.
What it treats
- Clogged pores and blackheads
- Acne-prone skin
- Dull or dehydrated skin
- Sensitive skin that needs a gentle approach
What to expect
Before your facial
Tell your aesthetician about any prescriptions you use on your skin, such as retinoids, and any recent treatments.
During the facial
A facial usually includes cleansing, exfoliation, extractions if needed, a mask chosen for your skin, and moisturizer and sunscreen to finish.
After the facial
Your skin may be a little pink for a few hours, especially after extractions. You can go back to your day right away.
Keeping it up
Many people come in about once a month. Your aesthetician can also suggest products for home.
