8 Types of Facial Treatments Offered at SkinSpirit

All facials are not alike, especially when it comes to the facials performed at SkinSpirit. A day spa facial will focus on pampering a client during their treatment whereas a SkinSpirit facial will not only pamper a client, but also focus on improving the quality of the skin using medical-grade skincare.

Our aestheticians custom-blend each facial to help firm, hydrate, correct and clarify the skin to restore its optimum texture, look and feel. All SkinSpirit facials begin with a thorough evaluation of the client’s skin and include gentle steaming and extractions when necessary. Clients will also receive recommendations for an at-home skincare regimen.

Our Facial Services

At SkinSpirit, we realize that each client will have a different skin type, skin conditions and concerns. This is why we offer a variety of facial treatments that can be tailored to meet any of our client’s needs.

SkinSpirit Signature Facial
The Signature Facial is our most popular facial. This treatment is ideal for maintaining healthy, radiant skin. A Signature Facial provides maximum results in a single treatment. Medical-grade microdermabrasion exfoliates away dead surface skin cells, preparing the face for optimal cleansing and absorption of active ingredients. Next, we apply enzymes to melt away remaining dead skin and soften the skin to prepare it for extractions. The aesthetician will then select a medical-grade treatment mask that will immediately help improve the quality of the skin. The treatment is then finished by carefully layering selected serums, hydrators and SPF. Treatment Time: 75 Minutes

Teen Facial Treatment
This treatment is ideal for any teen, giving them a valuable educational experience on how to take better care of their skin. This facial addresses the important aspects of cleansing, exfoliation and protection from the damaging effects of the sun. It also provides clarifying results for teens prone to acne breakouts.

The Teen Facial Treatment is an entry-level treatment with very light extractions and does not include microdermabrasion. If your teen needs therapeutic acne treatment, please see the Custom Facial Treatment below. Treatment Time: 45 Minutes

Custom Facial Treatment
This treatment is ideal for all skin types, especially sensitive, active acne or compromised skin conditions. This customized facial treatment includes deep cleansing, exfoliation, extractions, and a customized medical-grade treatment mask.

Dermaplaning Treatment
This treatment is ideal for most skin types especially delicate or vascular skin types and those with hyperpigmentation and sun damage. This treatment very effectively and meticulously exfoliates all dead skin cells and prepares the face for optimal cleansing and absorption of active ingredients. Dermaplaning also removes unwanted facial hair without the pain and irritation of facial waxing or depilatories. The aesthetician will also use enzymes to refine the pores and prepare the skin for extractions. Then a medical grade treatment mask will be selected to meet the specific needs of the skin. The treatment is then finished with a light massage and then by carefully layering selected serums, hydrators and SPF. Treatment Time: 75 Minutes

Power Hour Treatment
This treatment is one of our newest skin treatments and is only available at our Northern California locations. The Power Hour Treatment is ideal for the person-on-the-go who’s looking for significant results in a short amount of time.

The magic of this treatment is that it treats the face along with the neck and chest (normally a $50 add on) with either microdermabrasion or dermaplaning, an enzyme mask with light extractions and a chemical resurfacing peel (also normally a $50 add on) all in under an hour!

The Power Hour Treatment is an intensive facial treatment that treats the face, neck and chest beginning with a deep cleansing. Medical-grade microdermabrasion exfoliates dead surface skin cells, preparing the face for optimal cleansing and absorption of active ingredients. Next, the aesthetician will apply enzymes to melt away remaining dead skin and soften the skin to prepare it for light extractions. The treatment will then finish with a mild leave-on chemical peel that will make the skin glow and by carefully layering selected serums, hydrators and SPF. Treatment Time: *60 Minutes

*The total duration of this treatment will vary depending on the added-on services the client’s chooses to receive during their service.

Micro-Penning
Micro-Penning is the latest revolution in skin revitalization. This new, innovative treatment is a safe alternative to common skin resurfacing tools like lasers and dermal rollers. And, clients experience minimal to no downtime.

During this treatment, your aesthetician will apply a thick layer of topical gel to your skin and select the appropriate treatment setting based on your unique needs. Next, in a single motion, the pen will be gently pressed against the skin while simultaneously gliding until the entire treatment area has been covered. This process results in thousands of superficial microscopic channels throughout the entire treatment area, stimulating your skin’s natural ability to heal itself. This repair process begins almost immediately.

Benefits to this treatment include wrinkle reduction, texture and tone improvement, softer, fresher, younger-looking skin with fewer signs of aging, allows topical gels, creams and serums to be absorbed more effectively, making your skincare product investments work even harder and helps work on hyperpigmentation, treating uneven skin tone, acne scars and other scars.

Back Treatment
We even have a facial specifically designed for the skin of the back. A Back Treatment mirrors the techniques used in traditional facials and is intended to clarify and soften the skin of the back and provide deep cleaning and hydration that will leave a client with healthier skin.

The back treatment begins with the aesthetician analyzing the skin to determine which medical grade products will help attain their goal. The aesthetician will then deep clean, using steam with enzymes to open up the pores and soften the skin. If extractions are needed they will be performed after which medical-grade mask may be applied. In many cases, it is beneficial to add on a resurfacing chemical peel to attain desired results. An additional charge would then apply. Treatment Time: 45 Minutes
