WHAT IS A FACIAL?
THE BASICS OF A PROFESSIONAL FACIAL
A facial is one of the best ways to take care of your skin – the largest organ of your body – especially when it’s given by an experienced and knowledgeable facialist.
​
A facial cleanses, exfoliates and nourishes the skin, promoting a clear, well-hydrated complexion, and can help your skin look younger.
You will get the most out of our facials when they are a part of a continuing skin care program.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I GET A FACIAL
Ideally, every 4 weeks as that is how long it takes the skin to regenerate and is generally the protocol we give. However, if you are trying to clear up acne the intervals might be shorter, or if you have sensitive skin then we might suggest longer in between of 6-8 weeks. At the very least we suggest a facial 4-times a year with the change of seasons.
