Facials are the most common aesthetic treatment performed today – and they are also one of the oldest. The first documented Facials can be traced back to the ancient Egyptians who used natural ingredients like alabaster, honey, animal oils, aloe vera, sour milk, clay, salt and sand for skin care routines including exfoliation and hydration. They did dry body brushing and used pumice stones.
Facials are so popular – and have retained their popularity over the centuries – because they are effective. They are also one of the most affordable skin care options available.

There are many different types of Facials available, and they can be personalized to different skin types and your individual skin care goals. Though they may utilize different products and tools, most facials include some or all of the following components:

We are thrilled to offer the innovative Skinwave treatment! Skinwave is a brand-new skin wellness device that cleanses, exfoliates, hydrates and truly awakens your skin’s natural beauty. With this device, our patients are able to experience the most advanced aqua delivery treatment available. Skinwave is so much more than a simple aqua treatment.
A comparison between Skinwave and other systems like HydraFacial or AquaFacial reveals that while they are all hydradermabrasion treatments that hydrate, exfoliate and cleanse skin, Skinwave offers a more multi-dimensional and comprehensive approach to skincare, largely because of its inclusion of the following:
Skinwave also provides multiple handpieces that no other system offers. One handpiece is a contouring roller that glides over the skin increasing lymphatic circulation and drainage while encouraging muscle relaxation. Using another handpiece, Skinwave can be used to incorporate alpha hydroxy acid, beta hydroxy acid, and hyaluronic acid during extractions.

At your first session, we always take a medical history and review any medications, supplements or herbal medications you’re taking, as well as assess any particular allergies, contraindications or medical needs you may have. Your initial consultation can be in-person or a telemedicine consultation with our medical provider before you even come in for a Facial, if you wish.
Most people experience little to no discomfort with a Facial.
Results vary among individuals. You may see a difference the first day and improvements usually continue over time with additional Facials.
Again, results can vary, but most people need to do ongoing Facials every 3-6 weeks to maintain skin freshness and clarity.
At your initial consultation, we will take a full medical history and determine together with you if you would be a good candidate for Facials and which components are appropriate for you.
