Facials

What are facials?

Facials are a hands-on aesthetic treatment that uses a range of techniques to cleanse, tone, treat, and moisturize your skin. While most people consider facials as a relaxing experience you might enjoy at a spa or while on vacation, professional facials offer a number of dermatological benefits. 

Medical-grade facials go far beyond relaxation, although the experience is undeniably enjoyable. North Valley Wellness offers several different types of facials. Some of the specific skin care needs facials can address include:

• Dry skin
• Aging skin
• Sensitive skin
• Acne-prone skin
• Brightening
• Calming, compromised skin
• Firming and lifting
• Oily skin
• Hyperpigmentation
• Fine lines and wrinkling
• Clogged or enlarged pores

Each facial is a customized experience, created to meet your unique set of needs at the time of your visit.  

What are the benefits of facials?

Professional facials deliver a deep cleansing effect, priming your face to receive top-quality products. North Valley Wellness uses only the best product lines, ensuring each step delivers wonderful ingredients. 

Facials also include massage, helping stimulate circulation and muscle relaxation. Massage also promotes lymphatic drainage, helping your body sweep away dead cells and other impurities. 

During the treatment phase of your facial, your practitioner selects products that refine your skin's appearance, feel, and health. There’s no need to worry that your skin will become irritated or overstimulated; your practitioner brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to their role.

North Valley Wellness also offers the OxyGeneo™ super-facial. This option uses advanced technology to deliver highly concentrated carbon dioxide to the surface of your skin, where it exfoliates and oxygenates your skin. 

What should I expect during facials?

After you speak with your practitioner about any skin concerns you have and your goals for the facial, you’ll be given time to change and get settled comfortably on the treatment table. Your practitioner returns and begins the facial with a gentle cleansing to remove all traces of oil, makeup, and debris from your skin. 

Some of the common elements of professional facials include:

• Toning
• Hot towels
• Steam treatment
• Facial massage
• Upper body massage
• Exfoliation
• Masks
• Serums
• Pore extractions
• Lip scrub and mask
• LED Light therapy
• OxyGeneo

Your practitioner selects the techniques that best align with your needs. You can choose to have an explanation of each step as it occurs or just relax and enjoy the experience as it unfolds.
