What is a Facial?

Facials can treat a variety of skin conditions as well as signs of aging to create a healthier, more youthful complexion. At Dominion Women’s Health Med Spa, we offer a selection of facials that represent a variety of skin types. Our facials have been proven to diminish fine lines and wrinkles, even out skin tone, and rejuvenate sun-damaged skin, and a host of other blemishes. Using tried and true methods, our facials boost collagen production, making your skin taught and youthful. Not only that, but our facials also cleanse the pores while moisturizing the skin, so that your glowing results last longer.

As with all cosmetic procedures, your appointment will begin with a consultation. This is your opportunity to share your areas of concern with our trusted estheticians and find solutions that suit your unique case. Open and honest communication in your consultation is imperative to see the results you want—make sure to tell Dr. Shaban about your medical history, your water intake, and any skincare products you use.

After an in-depth discussion and thorough skin analysis, Dr. Shaban and our estheticians will perform a skin analysis to determine your general skin types. The facial services recommended for you depend heavily on skin texture and whether your face is dry, oily, sensitive, or some combination.

How Often to Get Facials

The ideal frequency for facials depends on your skin type, concerns, and treatment goals. In general, most people benefit from a professional facial every four to six weeks, as this aligns with the skin’s natural renewal cycle. For those with specific concerns, such as acne or hyperpigmentation, more frequent treatments—every two to three weeks—may be recommended to achieve optimal results.

Types of Facials We Offer

Below, you’ll find a list of the invigorating treatments at DWH, and what they treat:

Microdermabrasion – Deep exfoliation and pore cleansing.

Dermaplaning – Rids the face of dead skin and hair that can dull the complexion.

High Frequency – A technique that utilizes targeted thermal energy to treat acne, fine lines, wrinkles, and pore size.

LED Light Therapy – Light Emitting Diode Therapy, is a skincare treatment that uses varying wavelengths of light, including red, blue, green, and yellow – each targeting an individual concern.

Recovery and Aftercare

After the cosmetic treatment, your skin will immediately appear clearer and brighter. Seeing as it is a non-surgical procedure, there is no downtime with our facials. You may notice a mild redness immediately after the treatment, but this redness will fade quickly. DWH will recommend some skincare products to you so that your results last, and your blemishes continue to improve. In order to ensure the longevity of your results, your estheticians will recommend you apply a high-SPF sunscreen, drink plenty of water, avoid touching the treated areas, and wear minimal makeup for a few days after the treatment.
