Finding the Right One for Your Skin
Every skin type and condition has unique needs — what nourishes one may irritate another. Regular professional facials help your skin reset, repair, and restore balance. Understanding which treatment aligns with your current skin condition helps you get the best results without overloading or stressing your skin.
1. Deep Cleansing Facial
Best for: Acne, congested pores, blackheads, and oily skin
This facial targets buildup and bacteria that lead to breakouts. It deeply purifies the skin while rebalancing oil production and preventing future congestion.
What to Expect:
A thorough double cleanse removes surface impurities, followed by an exfoliation or enzyme peel to loosen debris. Steam is used to soften pores before gentle extractions. A detoxifying clay or charcoal mask helps draw out remaining toxins, and the session ends with a balancing serum and lightweight moisturizer.
Pro Tip: Ideal every 2–3 weeks during acne healing or for oily summer skin maintenance.
2. Hydration Facial
Best for: Dry, sensitive, or dehydrated skin; eczema and psoriasis
Designed to replenish moisture and strengthen your skin barrier, this facial helps relieve tightness, flaking, and sensitivity.
What to Expect:
Your esthetician will use a gentle cleanser and hydrating tonics, followed by layers of moisture-binding serums containing hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and botanical oils. A soothing mask and facial massage boost absorption and microcirculation.
Pro Tip: Excellent for Vata or Kapha body types during colder months or post-travel skin fatigue.
3. Calming Facial
Best for: Sensitive, reactive, or inflamed skin (rosacea, eczema, psoriasis)
This treatment soothes irritation, cools redness, and restores comfort to over-stimulated skin. Products are fragrance-free and formulated with barrier-repair ingredients.
What to Expect:
Gentle cleansing followed by a mild enzyme or oatmeal-based exfoliant, hydrating serums with niacinamide or panthenol, and a cooling mask with aloe, chamomile, or green tea. A light lymphatic drainage massage encourages relaxation and detoxification.
Pro Tip: Pair with breathwork or guided visualization during treatment to calm the nervous system — your skin will mirror your inner peace.
4. Detoxifying Facial
Best for: Acne, oily, and dull skin
This facial purifies the skin at a deeper level, helping to clear toxins, regulate sebum, and refine texture.
What to Expect:
A deep cleanse, exfoliation, and purifying clay or charcoal mask are followed by gentle extractions. Some therapists may add high-frequency or blue LED light to target acne bacteria and inflammation. The treatment concludes with a lightweight, oil-balancing moisturizer.
Pro Tip: Ideal before starting a new skincare regimen or seasonal detox challenge.
5. Brightening Facial
Best for: Hyperpigmentation, uneven tone, and sun damage
This treatment focuses on fading dark spots, evening skin tone, and restoring luminosity.
What to Expect:
Mild exfoliants such as lactic or mandelic acid are used to resurface the skin. Vitamin C, niacinamide, and licorice root extract are applied to inhibit melanin production. Some facials include green LED therapy to calm redness and improve clarity.
Pro Tip: Consistency is key — monthly sessions paired with sun protection and brightening serums deliver visible results.
6. Anti-Aging Facial
Best for: Fine lines, wrinkles, loss of elasticity, and dullness
This rejuvenating treatment enhances circulation, firms the skin, and encourages collagen renewal.
What to Expect:
A gentle exfoliation preps the skin for a blend of peptides, antioxidants, and collagen-stimulating actives. Techniques like microcurrent, LED red light, or ultrasound therapy may be used to lift and tone facial muscles. The session ends with a firming mask and rich moisturizer.
Pro Tip: Add Gua Sha or facial cupping at home between sessions to maintain tone and lymphatic flow.
7. Lymphatic Drainage or Sculpting Facial
Best for: Puffy, tired, or stagnant skin
This facial uses manual massage or microcurrent tools to improve lymph flow, reduce puffiness, and define contours. It’s ideal for those with sluggish circulation or stress-related dullness.
What to Expect:
A series of rhythmic, gentle movements using the therapist’s hands or facial tools to stimulate detoxification. This treatment boosts radiance and supports immune function in the skin.
Pro Tip: Great to schedule before special events or after long flights to restore your glow.
