What Is a Facial?

Facials are skincare treatments comprised of cleansers, steam, exfoliation, masks, serums, and/or creams. These treatments address a variety of skin conditions, from acne to anti-aging, while providing beneficial relaxation. At the MedSpa at Wake Plastic Surgery, a licensed medical aesthetician will assess the patient’s skin needs and goals to create a customized facial that will result in healthier, glowing skin.


Why Should You Choose a Facial?

Your skin is your largest and most complex organ, responsible for protection, secretion, and regulation of body temperature.

As you age, your skin’s function begins to slow, therefore prompting the aging process. This process is only expedited by your diet, sun exposure, and environment. Starting at the age of 28, you lose one percent of cell turnover every year, and this results in aged and tired skin.

The MedSpa at Wake Plastic Surgery offers facials to target your specific concerns and address your skincare needs. Medical-grade products are used to cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate the skin. These products stimulate circulation and skin cell turnover, allowing your skin to behave as it did when you were younger.

Facials allow patients to leave the office feeling as though their skin can finally breathe.

What to Expect During a Facial

Facials at the MedSpa at Wake Plastic Surgery are customized to fit each client’s concerns and lifestyle.

We offer complimentary consultations on or before the day of your treatment. This consultation gives you a chance to discuss your skincare concerns with one of our skilled aestheticians and learn how a facial can benefit you.

The Facial Process

  • Your face is doubled cleansed (with or without steam)
  • Your skin is exfoliated (either manually or chemically)
  • Extractions are made with the help of facial massages to drain the lymph system
  • Serums, moisturizers, and SPF are applied to rejuvenate and protect the skin

After your facial, your aesthetician will recommend skincare treatments or products that will complement your facial treatment.

It is our goal at the MedSpa at Wake Plastic Surgery to make every facial experience extraordinary and specific to our client’s skincare needs. Your facial and any additional skincare treatment will be performed in our serene and relaxing medspa facility.
