Our Facial Menu

Whether you want a glowing look for a special occasion or simply want to take the best possible care of your skin, we have a facial that will provide the improvements you desire. Our choices include the following:

• The Spa One Facial is customized to your skin type and includes deep pore cleansing, exfoliation, facial massage, and mask therapy.
• The Express Facial is an excellent choice for fresher skin when you don’t have a lot of time. We’ll renew and refresh your skin while you relax for this 30-minute treatment.
• The Acne Teen Facial can help you have clearer, healthier skin. Through a combination of a blended chemical peel and deep cleansing, this treatment helps clear blemishes, reduce oil, eliminate acne-causing bacteria, and prevent future breakouts. For best results, we recommend having this treatment every other week.

Am I a Good Candidate For a Facial?

Most men and women in the Capital Region who desire improvements in the texture and tone of their skin are good candidates for facials. Our facials are ideal for people whose treatment goals include one or more of the following:

• Healthier skin – Facials can be a great way to resolve issues with dry skin, oily skin, acne, and blackheads, so you can enjoy a clearer, more vibrant complexion.
• Preventative care – Facials can play an important role in preventing signs of aging, breakouts, and other skin concerns.

• Stress relief – Our facials go beyond pampering your skin, melting away tension and leaving you feeling relaxed and refreshed.

What to Expect During a Facial

While every client is given a unique facial experience, the general process includes the following:

• Skin assessment to identify areas of dryness, aging, breakouts, and other skin conditions
• Gentle cleansing of the facial skin
• Application of steam to open pores, soften oils, and hydrate
• Administration of skincare products such as toners, serums, moisturizers, and sunscreen
• Application of a mask to address concerns like aging, acne, or dull coloring
• Gentle removal of blackheads and whiteheads (extractions)
• Facial massage
• Hand, arm, neck, and scalp massage

Your spa visit is also an opportunity to learn about appropriate skincare products and purchase them for use at home if desired.

What Happens After a Facial Session?

Following your facial treatment, your skin will begin its natural recovery process. Proper aftercare is essential to maximize your results. During the first 24-48 hours of recovery, keep your skincare routine gentle and simple – use a mild cleanser, apply a light moisturizer, and always use sunscreen when going outdoors. Avoid harsh exfoliants, retinoids, or any aggressive products that could irritate your newly treated skin.

Some clients may experience mild redness or slight sensitivity immediately after treatment. However, these should subside within a few hours as your skin completes its recovery process.
