Facials

What do facials treat?

A facial is a soothing, noninvasive treatment that offers deep cleansing, exfoliation, and massage.

Facials treat skin complaints like:

• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Uneven skin tone and texture
• Oily, acne-prone skin
• Enlarged pores
• Acne and skin blemishes
• Hyperpigmentation (dark spots or areas)
• Age spots and sun damage
• Irritated skin

Facials can also lead to overall skin health with benefits that include:

• Balancing your skin’s pH
• Combating the effects of aging and your environment
• Improving circulation
• Detoxifying pores
• Encouraging cell regrowth
• Promoting collagen production
• Improving skin elasticity and firmness

How often you’ll need a facial will depend on your skin type, goals, and which facial you’re undergoing. Your skin could have different needs during the dry winter or humid summer.

Why should I invest in regular facials?

Diligent at-home care, proper nutrition, hydration, skin products, and sunscreen are vital to your skin’s health. But even if your skincare routine is impeccable, professional facials exfoliate the skin and extract impurities to a degree you can't achieve on your own.

The Syosset Medi Spa team assesses your unique skin concerns and sensitivities and uses a personalized set of products.

Regularly scheduled facials lead to radiant skin and a refreshed look. You could see immediate results after a facial, especially if you struggle with persistent breakouts or clogged pores.

What happens during a facial?

Your provider personalizes your facial to meet your goals, but the steps during the appointment are typically similar for everyone.

Preparation

Your aesthetician has you lie on a treatment table while you receive a gentle shoulder and facial massage. They fill the room with the scent of soothing essential oils.

Cleansing

Your aesthetician washes your face with a gentle cleanser to remove makeup or other debris.

Exfoliation and extraction

Your esthetician exfoliates your skin, removing mild impurities from your skin’s outer layer. These include acne, blackheads, and whiteheads.

Finishing

You’ll receive personalized, calming gels, anti-aging creams, or other compounds that rejuvenate your skin.

After a facial, your skin will flush pink or appear red. This positive sign of increased blood circulation will subside throughout the day.
