Our Facial Treatments
Facial treatment maintains and rejuvenates skin health. Facials are excellent for treating specific ailments and are beneficial for skin texture, tone, acne, and appearance. Regular skin treatment can prolong the effects of or delay the need for cosmetic surgery.
Facials are appropriate for men, women, and teenagers, especially those looking to improve the overall health of their skin. Besides the physical benefits, there are also mental benefits as facial treatments are excellent for dealing with stress.
The Egozi Plastic Surgery Center offers a number of different facial treatments, all of which differ in technique, method, and length.
Different Types of Facial Treatments
There are several different facial treatments available, depending on your area of concern and desired outcome. For example, some facial treatments target skin concerns such as acne and scarring, while others are designed to combat the signs of aging, such as sun damage or wrinkles. Treatments can range in length from under an hour to 90 minutes or more, depending on the type of treatment and the targeted skin concern.
Chemical Peels
During a chemical peel, a chemical solution is applied to the skin to remove the top layers. Depending on the patient’s skin concern, chemical peels can be applied at different depths — a light or medium chemical peel is done to treat fine wrinkles, acne, and uneven skin tone. In contrast, a deep chemical peel, which removes deeper skin cells, targets deep wrinkles, scars, or precancerous growths. Light and medium peels often require repeat treatments, while deep chemical peels generally only need to be performed once.
Chemical peels are not advised for pregnant individuals who have a history (or a family history) of keloid scarring or those who have cold sores.
Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion involves using a special, abrasive applicator to gently buff away the outer layer of skin. The procedure can also involve spraying fine particles of aluminum oxide or sodium bicarbonate onto the skin, which are then removed using a suction device. This accomplishes the same goal of abrasion as the first method.
In both cases, microdermabrasion is used to rejuvenate skin by removing the thick, outer layer. This type of facial treatment can be used to address sun damage, age spots, fine lines and wrinkles, acne scarring, and other skin concerns.
Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning, also known as microplaning or blading, is a type of skin treatment that uses an exfoliating blade to remove dead skin cells and hair from your face. This type of treatment results in a smooth, radiant appearance and can treat acne scars, dry or dull skin, fine wrinkles, and sun damage.
Ageless facials
Ageless facials are skin treatments that combine several techniques and products to rejuvenate aging skin. This can include chemical peels or microdermabrasion, the application of masks or creams, and laser treatments to combat deep wrinkles and age spots.
Acne facials
Acne facials are any treatment — or combination of treatments — designed to treat moderate to severe acne. Classic acne facials involve steaming, the application of an exfoliating scrub, and the use of a mask, toner, or moisturizer. More intensive treatments may include decongesting treatments, during which an aesthetician will unblock pores with their fingers or with an extracting tool. Microdermabrasion, chemical or enzyme peels.
Laser facial treatments
During this type of treatment, a laser is used to remove the top layer of skin. This type of treatment, also known as resurfacing, can be used to treat acne scars and to minimize the appearance of wrinkles and age spots.

FAQ
Are facial treatments good for your skin?
Even if you don’t suffer from skin concerns such as acne, scarring, wrinkles, or sun damage, your skin can benefit from the rejuvenating treatment of a facial. The experience can also be deeply relaxing, leading to stress relief — which is also excellent for your skin! In addition, visiting an experienced, reputable facialist can equip you with knowledge about your skin’s specific needs, which can help you make more informed decisions about taking better care of your skin on your own, between facials.
What are the dos and don’ts after getting a facial?
Do: Keep your skin hydrated by using a moisturizer, exfoliate and apply a Vitamin C serum, and drink plenty of water. Your facialist will likely have specific advice to follow after your specific facial treatment. It will be important to follow to preserve the effects and longevity of your facial.
Don’t: Visit a sauna or steam room the same day as (or shortly after) your facial treatment, expose your face to the sun without sunscreen, or pick at any pimples or irritated spots on your skin (if you experience any severe reactions after your facial, it is best to contact your facialist as soon as possible).
