If you are looking for a basic facial, without dermaplaning, this is the perfect entry to the realm of professional skincare. Here’s what you can expect during this treatment and the potential benefits it can offer for your skin.

Double cleanse

The first cleanse, which removes the dirt, oil, and make-up lying on the surface of the skin, is the most basic step. Following the first purification, another purification comes, usually with a professional-grade cleanser, that is more intensive in its cleansing and intended for the skin type of the person. With this double cleansing, the skin is absolutely free from any pollutants and dirt as it is prepared for the next steps.

Gentle exfoliation

The next step is an exfoliating treatment that is mild but it helps to remove the dead cells on the top layer of the skin. This exfoliation can result in wrinkled and brightened skin, bringing the products to sink deeper. Many facials use scrubs or masks that contain few exfoliating elements to obtain this kind of result without irritation.

A Deep Cleanse for a Fresh Start

The core of a basic facial is a thorough cleansing that goes beyond your daily routine. Here’s how it typically unfolds:

Targeted Treatments for Enhanced Results

Following the cleansing and exfoliation, your esthetician may incorporate additional steps depending on your specific skin needs:

Steam treatment

Certain treatments may be added to the facial such as a steam treatment in order to maximize pore opening and thus the removal of impurities. Also, steaming may aid in softening blackheads and thus an easier removal (if it is needed).

Extractions

Our professional esthetician is prepared to do facial extractions when it’s required. These include blackheads and whiteheads.

Mask application

A customized facial mask that is targeted at whatever skin problems you might have is another step we take post-treatment. We use hydrating masks that restore moisture, calming masks that help to soothe irritation, and mattifying masks that cut oil production.

Moisturizer and sunscreen

At the end of the facial treatment, a moisturizer is used to seal the effects, and we apply sunscreen to protect and hydrate the skin.

A Deep Cleanse for a Fresh Start

Here are some of the key benefits you can expect from a basic facial:

Deep cleanse and detoxification

The cleansing process deeply removes oils, makeup residue, dirt, and dead skin cells, leaving your skin feeling new again, fresh, and revitalized.

Improved skin texture and brightness

Our professional esthetician is prepared to do facial extractions when it’s required. These include blackheads and whiteheads.

Enhanced product penetration

A cleaned and buffed face makes it possible for skincare products to be absorbed by the skin more efficiently, resulting in better results.

Relaxation and pampering

A facial can be the perfect way to get rid of stress and relax. It’s also a way to tend to your skin.

Dermaplane only

Dermaplaning is a skincare treatment using a surgical scalpel to exfoliate, revealing smoother skin and enhancing product absorption. Suitable for all skin types, it improves texture, fine lines, and dullness. This non-invasive procedure offers instant results with no downtime and is popular for radiant skin. Regular sessions stimulate cell turnover and collagen production for long-term benefits. Consult a skincare professional before treatment.

Exfoliation with a Blade

The fact that a small blade is involved in the procedure might sound scary, however, dermaplaning is a gentle and controlled process, which is performed by an experienced aesthetician or dermatologist. Here’s a breakdown of the treatment: radiation.

Skin preparation

Our esthetician will first wash your face very well to get rid of any makeup, oil, or dirt. This way, the skin is ready and clean for the procedure of exfoliation. Then the esthetician may use a mild toner to rebalance the skin’s pH and any residual impurities may be removed.

Exfoliation with a Blade

After the skin is clean and ready, the aesthetician will then delicately move the sterile surgical blade on the facial surface at a specific angle. The specific angle and method will be individualized to suit your skin type and purpose. The blade delicately scrapes off the upper layer of the dead cells revealing the fresh, radiant complexion below.

Post-Treatment Care

When the exfoliation process ends, the aesthetician will apply a moisturizer and sunscreen to your freshly exfoliated skin. The moisturizer assists in hydration and replenishing the skin, whereas the sunscreen is essential as it shields the now accessible layer of skin cells from harmful UV radiation.

Hydradermabrasion

Hydradermabrasion combines hydration and exfoliation for healthier skin. This non-invasive treatment cleanses, exfoliates, extracts impurities, and hydrates the skin, revealing a smoother complexion and unclogging pores. Nourishing serums are delivered deep into the skin to address concerns like fine lines and hyperpigmentation. Regular sessions improve skin texture, tone, and elasticity for all skin types without downtime, providing instant revitalization after each session.

Exfoliation, Hydration, and Extraction

Hydradermabrasion goes beyond typical exfoliation treatments by offering a multi-faceted approach to skin rejuvenation. Here’s a breakdown of the key steps involved:

Gentle exfoliation

A specialized applicator tip is used during the hydradermabrasion procedure. This tip gently removes dead skin cells and impurities from the outer layer of the skin. Unlike some exfoliation methods that can be harsh or abrasive, hydradermabrasion offers a more controlled and comfortable approach.

Hydrating serums and solutions

The same applicator tip used for exfoliation simultaneously delivers hydrating serums and solutions deep into the skin. These solutions can contain hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and other beneficial ingredients that plump, nourish, and soothe the skin.

Targeted extractions

While not always included in every hydradermabrasion treatment, some procedures may incorporate extractions to remove blackheads and whiteheads.  A qualified aesthetician will perform these extractions gently and hygienically to minimize the risk of irritation or scarring.

Hydradermabrasion for All Skin Types

A significant advantage of hydradermabrasion is its versatility. Unlike some exfoliation methods that can be too harsh for sensitive skin, hydradermabrasion offers a gentler approach that can be adapted to suit various skin types. Here’s why it might be a good option for you:

Dry Skin

The hydrating serums delivered during hydradermabrasion can help to replenish moisture and leave dry skin feeling soft and supple.

Oily Skin

By removing excess oil and dead skin cells that can clog pores, hydradermabrasion can help to control shine and minimize breakouts.

Sensitive Skin

The gentle exfoliation and focus on hydration make hydradermabrasion a good option for those with sensitive skin who may not tolerate harsher treatments.

Mature Skin

Hydradermabrasion can improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by promoting cell turnover and revealing a smoother, more radiant complexion.

Other Custom facials

Our clinic offers a variety of custom facial options designed to address your unique skin concerns and achieve your desired aesthetic goals. Let’s explore some of our most popular options:

Acne Facials

If you struggle with blemishes, blackheads, and oily skin, our acne facials can be a powerful ally in your skincare routine. Acne is a common skin condition that affects people of all ages, and it can be frustrating and embarrassing. Our acne facials are specifically designed to target the underlying causes of acne and promote a clearer, more balanced complexion.

Here’s a closer look at how our acne facials can help:

Deep cleansing

A thorough cleansing is the first step in any acne facial. Our aestheticians use professional-grade cleansers that are specifically formulated to remove dirt, oil, and makeup from acne-prone skin without stripping it of its natural oils. This helps to create a clean foundation for the treatment and prevent future breakouts.

Exfoliation

Dead skin cells can clog pores and contribute to breakouts. Our acne facials incorporate gentle exfoliation methods to remove these dead skin cells and keep pores clear. This can help to prevent new blemishes from forming and improve the overall texture and appearance of the skin.

Soothing Facials for Delicate Skin

For those with sensitive skin, our soothing facials offer a gentle and pampering approach to maintaining a healthy complexion. Unlike many facials that can be harsh or irritating, our soothing facials are designed to calm and comfort sensitive skin. We use fragrance-free, hypoallergenic products that are free of common irritants such as alcohol, artificial colors, and harsh chemicals. Our aestheticians will also tailor the treatment to your specific sensitivities, ensuring a comfortable and effective experience.

Anti-Aging Facials

Our anti-aging facials are designed to combat the visible signs of aging, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of elasticity. These facials utilize advanced techniques and ingredients to promote a smoother, firmer, and more youthful appearance.
We employ some techniques in our anti-aging service, including:

Microdermabrasion

This gentle exfoliation technique removes dead skin cells and stimulates collagen production, revealing a smoother and more youthful complexion.

Radiofrequency

Radiofrequency treatments use radio waves to heat the deeper layers of the skin, promoting collagen production and tightening the skin.

Chemical peels

Chemical peels use carefully controlled acids to remove damaged outer layers of skin, revealing smoother, brighter, and younger-looking skin. (Chemical peels can vary in strength and are not suitable for all skin types. A consultation is crucial to determine if a chemical peel is right for you.)
