Medical Grade Facials

Facial Treatments for Different Skin Concerns

Anti-Aging Facial

An anti-aging medical-grade facial is designed to target fine lines, loss of firmness, and overall skin dullness.

This treatment focuses on deep cleansing, exfoliation, and nourishment while supporting collagen production and cellular renewal. The result is smoother, more hydrated skin with improved tone and a more refreshed appearance.

Best for:

• Fine lines and wrinkles 
• Loss of firmness 
• Dull or tired-looking skin 
• Preventative skin maintenance 

Acne Facial

An acne facial is a targeted treatment designed to treat active breakouts, reduce congestion, and support clearer skin.

Using clinical-grade products, this facial deeply cleanses the pores, gently exfoliates, and includes extractions when appropriate. It also helps calm inflammation and support the skin barrier, which is essential for long-term acne management.

Best for:

• Active acne and breakouts 
• Congested or clogged pores 
• Oily or acne-prone skin 
• Post-breakout maintenance 

Hydrating & Brightening Facial

A hydrating and brightening facial is designed to restore moisture, improve skin tone, and enhance overall radiance.

This treatment combines gentle exfoliation with deeply nourishing ingredients and targeted serums to replenish hydration and revive dull or dehydrated skin.

Best for:

• Dry or dehydrated skin 
• Uneven tone 
• Dull complexion 
• Pre-event skin prep 

Sensitive Skin Facial

A sensitive skin facial is a gentle, calming treatment designed to reduce redness, soothe irritation, and support the skin barrier.

Using clinical-grade, hypoallergenic products, this facial avoids aggressive exfoliation and focuses on hydration and barrier repair, leaving the skin balanced and comfortable.

Best for:

• Redness and irritation 
• Reactive or easily sensitized skin 
• Compromised skin barrier 
• Rosacea-prone skin 

Gua Sha Facial

A Gua Sha facial combines medical-grade skincare with the traditional technique of gua sha massage to promote circulation and lymphatic drainage.

This treatment helps reduce puffiness, enhance product absorption, and create a naturally lifted, sculpted appearance while supporting overall skin health.

Best for:

• Puffiness and fluid retention 
• Dull or sluggish-looking skin 
• Facial tension 
• Natural sculpting and glow 

Red Carpet Facial

The Red Carpet Facial is designed for immediate results when you want your skin looking its best.

This treatment focuses on boosting hydration, smoothing texture, and enhancing radiance with little to no downtime — making it the perfect option before events, photos, or special occasions.

For optimal results, a series of three treatments is often recommended when preparing for an event.

Best for:

• Event preparation 
• Instant glow 
• Smooth, hydrated skin 
• Quick skin refresh 

How Do Medical-Grade Facials Work?

Medical-grade facials use clinical-strength ingredients and targeted techniques to improve the function and appearance of the skin.

By combining cleansing, exfoliation, hydration, and treatment-specific steps, these facials help support cellular turnover, improve product penetration, and maintain overall skin health.

Because every skin type is different, each facial is tailored to address your individual concerns and goals.

How Often Should I Get a Facial?

Frequency depends on your skin type and concerns. Many patients benefit from treatments every 4 to 6 weeks to maintain results and support ongoing skin health.

Your provider will recommend a personalized treatment schedule based on your skin and long-term goals.

What Can I Expect After a Facial?

Most facials have little to no downtime. You may experience mild redness or sensitivity immediately after treatment, which typically resolves within a few hours.

Skin often appears more hydrated, refreshed, and radiant right away, with continued improvement over the following days.
