Skin School is a 12-part series from the Skin2oSpa team answering the questions we hear most. This is lesson 1. See every lesson.
Welcome to Skin School, our new series answering the questions we hear most at Skin2oSpa. We are starting with the one we get every week: “Which facial should I book?”
The right facial depends on what your skin is doing right now, not on a menu name. Here’s a simple way to match your concern to a treatment.
Start with your main concern
Breakouts and early signs of aging
The Blemish + Age Treatment is for skin dealing with both at once, which is more common than most people think.
Active, persistent acne
The Clinical Acne Treatment focuses on clearing congestion and calming active breakouts.
Tired skin that looks less firm
The Reconditioning and Firming Treatment is for skin that looks dull, tired, or less firm than it used to.
Redness and easily irritated skin
The Sensitive Skin Treatment uses a gentler approach for skin that reacts easily.
Men’s skin
The Refining Treatment for Men is designed around men’s skin, including clogged pores and irritation from shaving.
Not sure? That’s what we’re here for
Many people have more than one concern, and skin changes with the seasons. Book the facial that sounds closest, and our esthetician will look at your skin and adjust the treatment to what it needs that day.
How often should you get a facial?
Your esthetician will recommend a schedule based on your skin and goals. Regular visits, paired with a good home routine, tend to give better results than an occasional one-off treatment.
Frequently asked questions
Is a facial OK if I am breaking out?
Yes. Breakouts are one of the most common reasons people book. Let us know what is going on so we can choose the right treatment.
Will my skin be red afterward?
Most facials leave skin looking refreshed. Some treatments can cause mild, temporary redness, and your esthetician will tell you what to expect.
