What You should know before getting facials:
- We recommend getting a facial not too close to a big event. Try to avoid makeup right after facial.
- If getting Glycolic Peel, Deep Cleaning or Microdermabrasion please make sure you are not using heavy medication such as Retin-A, Benzoyyl peroxide or other heavy peels. Also please avoid direct sun after getting a peel for 2 to 3 days. After the peel try to avoid heavy exercise for that day to avoid sweating.
- We start all Glycolic Peels around 35%. We also offer TCA chemical peels. However TCA chemical peel are only offered to existing clients so we are familiar with their skin and home skincare routines.
- If this is your first facial with us and you cant decide what facial is best for you then you can choose the one that best describes your skin concerns. Once we examine your skin we can discus what is best for your skin.
- We do not extract very deep Milia (little white pearl balls under the skin) and deep cyst. Because milia and cyst are hard and under the skin’s surface, manually extraction methods are unlikely to help. Instead, you could wind up irritating and damaging the skin surrounding the cyst.
- We use most all products by a private lab from California and customize all products based on clients skin. Most all our products are for sensitive skin and fragrance free. If you are allergic to any ingredients please note that in your appointment section.

How does the Microdermabrasion treatment work?
Diamond-tip microdermabrasion works in two ways:
- By gently exfoliating or removing the outside layers of the skin, revealing a smoother, fresher complexion; and
- Using the vacuum to help stimulate microcirculation, increasing the blood supply that provides nutrients needed for skin regeneration and repair for new collagen, thereby improving skin texture and elasticity.
Is There Any Downtime After a Treatment?
- Diamond tip microdermabrasion is a safe and gentle procedure with no downtime. You will need to protect your skin with moisturizer and sun block for 48 hours after the treatment and may experience mild redness and sloughing/peeling. However, the client can return to work immediately, which is why many clients prefer to have Diamond tip microdermabrasion treatments on their lunch breaks since there is no downtime.
Are there any side effects?
- There is little to no downtime. One may experience a slight tingling, and the skin may feel tighter afterwards. Skin may appear slightly flushed and this generally fades in 12-24 hours. You may experience peeling or flaking, this is a sign of the cell renewal process being stimulated.
Is it safe?
- Yes; Microdermabrasion can be performed on most skin types and tones, as well as on reactive, sensitive skin. The treatment is executed slowly and progressively, removing only the superficial layers of the epidermis to reveal a youthful complexion and glow.
- Not everyone is a candidate for microdermabrasion treatments. If you have active or open acne lesions (such as pustules), it is best advised for you to wait until these lesions heal. If you have rosacea and your skin is inflamed, you are currently not a candidate. If you’re pregnant and have what is is referred to as pregnancy mask (hyperpigmentation), it is best that you wait to have microdermabrasion treatments at least six months after the birth.
