A little prep helps you get the most from your facial. Here is what to do (and skip).

Home/Salon Guides/How to Prep for Your First Facial

Come with clean-ish skin

No need to scrub — just arrive without heavy makeup if you can. We will cleanse thoroughly anyway.

Skip strong actives for a few days

Pause retinol and strong exfoliants 2–3 days before to avoid sensitivity during extractions.

Don't book right before a big event

Give skin about a week to settle after extractions so it looks its best on the day.

Tell us your goals

Hydration, breakouts, brightening, anti-aging — the more we know, the more we can tailor it.

Good to know

Questions, answered

Avoid waxing the area right before; let your esthetician know about recent treatments.

Most run 45–75 minutes depending on the treatment.
