ASK DR. STEYN
Dear Dr. Steyn,
What exactly is a medical facial? And how is it different from a regular facial I would get from my aesthetician? Thanks, Julie
Dear Julie,
Thank you for your question.
Medical facials are generally offered through your doctor’s office and performed by a medical aethetician. These medical professionals receive more extensive training on using products such as peels, lasers and other medical-grade equipment to address your cosmetic concerns.
Medical facials can offer you the benefits of a regular facial, such as deep cleansing with targeted skincare products, but with the addition of technology. For example, our Radiofrequency Facial has a lifting and firming component to the skin that’s integrated into the facial protocol. Similarly, our DermaFrac Microneedling facials helps to address skin texture and aging at the same time. The extremely popular HydraFacial uses water to exfoliate the skin and infuse it with anti-aging nutrients.
