What to Expect During Your First Medical-Grade Facial

At Uplift Skin and Body, your first medical-grade facial is more than just skincare—think of it as the perfect mix of clinical expertise and spa-like indulgence, where science meets luxury and your skin gets the A-list treatment it deserves. Never had one before? No worries. Here’s your play-by-play to feel completely confident (and very excited) about your first visit.

Step 1: The Consultation

Let’s get personal. Before a single serum touches  your skin, we’ll sit down for a one-on-one skin strategy consultation. Your aesthetician will analyze your skin like a pro , discuss your skincare goals , and review any sensitivities, meds, or lifestyle factors. It’s all about creating a game plan that’s 100% tailored to you.

Step 2: The Treatment Plan

Based on your consult, we’ll curate a facial with the  right combination of medical-grade products and technologies to target concerns like acne, aging, dullness, or unwanted pigmentation. Everything from breakouts to fine lines to, “I just want to glow more”.  This plan may include a combination of dermaplaning, , extractions, masques, and advanced modalities, such as microdermabrasion. 

Step 3: The Facial Experience

Clocking in at 30 to 90 minutes of bliss, your facial blends clinical-grade techniques with major indulgence.You’ll enjoy a gentle hot towel double cleanse that feels like a dream, followed by exfoliation to reveal your glow and ditch dead skin cells, and maybe some extractions (don’t worry, we’re gentle ) We aren’t finished there, we will also be sure to apply corrective serums, and protection. Our aestheticians use cutting-edge techniques to maximize results without compromising comfort.

Step 4: Post-Treatment Glow & Guidance

After your facial, your skin will look and feel refreshed, hydrated, and visibly more radiant. Some clients experience a bit of redness, totally normal—especially if we did deeper exfoliation or extractions, and  it usually fades within a few hours. You’ll leave with aftercare tips and product recommendations designed to keep the magic going  between visits.

Final Thoughts

Self-care isn’t selfish—it’s strategic. And we’re here for it.
