Prior to beginning any skin-care program, you will receive a complimentary skin consultation and diagnosis by our licensed, medical esthetician so that we may customize facials to your skin type and condition.

After a preliminary cleansing, the esthetician will discuss your skin-care routine, objectives, treatment and home-care options. For optimal results, a series of treatments may be recommended.

Be sure to check out our facial enhancements, which may be added to any of your treatments.

Call 800.722.6404 for details and prices.

Clinical Facial Care (Click for Therapeutic Specialty Facials.)

Medical Microdermabrasion

Our physician-grade system improves skin texture by exfoliating the top layer of the face and neck area to encourage collagen production and tighten pores. Ultra-fine crystals reduce the appearance of fine lines and hyperpigmentation, and can even out skin tone and imperfections. Finish with an application of a nutritive, hydrating formulation.

Medical Microdermabrasion with Specialty Mask

Enhance the results of your microdermabrasion treatment with a custom-formulated mask for the
face and neck, recommended by your clinician for your skin condition and health. This facial will leave your complexion intensely firm and tight, deeply hydrated and radiant.

Age-Management Peel

Innovative and clinically proven light-to-medium depth peel formulations exfoliate the face and neck with blends of lactic, citric and salicylic acids, and resorcinol while lightening and inhibiting pigment production. These peels help repair and reduce breakouts, control oil, soften
lines and provide a more even, smoother skin texture and appearance. These peel formulations may also be applied to the body. See Clinical Body Treatments.

Ultimate Peel

A unique blend of TCA and lactic acids creates one of the strongest, safest, yet effective peels, with minimal downtime. This treatment will target photodamaged skin, irregular hyperpigmentation, superficial fine lines and lackluster skin tone. Following your first treatment, you will notice significant improvement in your skin’s texture and tone as well as decreased hyperpigmentation.

Hydralift Repair

This age management and repair treatment for mature skin can help diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles caused by the loss of elasticity or environmental damage. An advanced, medically-based formulation of potent antiaging growth factors repairs the skin of the face, neck and eyes, increasing hydration and suppleness. This treatment includes the Visualift hydrating eye treatment that delivers a refreshed and toned look to the delicate eye area. The result is deeply nourished, smooth, firm, revitalized skin.

Nutritive Pumpkin Peel

A powerful antioxidant treatment to brighten and rejuvenate the face and neck, the pumpkin fruit contains potent smoothing and pore-clearing action. The treatment exfoliates and draws out impurities while introducing essential vitamins, enzymes and nutrients. This peel stimulates circulation, promotes healing and provides nutrition. Your skin will feel smoother as dead surface cells that cause rough skin texture are removed, leaving your skin with a healthy glow.

Clarifying Correction

This blend of 20% salicylic acid with cherry extract and other natural ingredients is an ideal choice for improving acne, breakout-prone skin and sluggish, dull complexions. Its exfoliating, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory action assists in refining skin texture and bringing new
brightness and freshness to the skin.

Oxygenation

This is an antioxidant therapy to correct and slow down the cell aging process. It helps stimulate respiration and circulation within the skin, promotes healing and rejuvenates sluggish, dull, stressed skin. It draws oxygen to the skin, leaving it fresh, clear and radiant. Appropriate for use between peel treatments or when exfoliation or flaking is not desired, this treatment is ideal two to three days before a special event. Acned complexions may also benefit greatly.

Obagi Prescription Facial

Available by physician prescription, this innovative, medium-strength, TCA-based peel can correct skin irregularities, scars, severe hyperpigmentation and thickened epidermis, and reverse the signs of premature aging. This treatment is administered by our physician with light sedation. Prepare your skin with a specialized, conditioning program for the recommended period, prior to the peel treatment. Following your treatment, your complexion will appear refreshed and rejuvenated.

Reconditioning Facial for Men

This European-style treatment is designed to alleviate and reduce the harsh effects of razor irritation, ingrown hair and exposure to the elements. Treatment begins with a deep exfoliation using a potent enzyme peel to boost the skin’s oxygenation. Following extractions, a rich mask is applied to the face to infuse moisture, while the hands are treated to a soothing massage, followed by a deeply hydrating application.

The Clean Teen Facial

With antibacterial properties and active ingredients for young adults, this treatment is designed to cleanse the skin and prevent breakouts.

Visualift Eye Area Rescue

Alleviate eye fatigue and facial tension with an antioxidant treatment aimed at relieving puffiness around the eyes. The treatment encourages normalized levels of circulation and effective lymphatic drainage of capillaries, leaving the delicate eye area refreshed, toned and revitalized.

Lip Treatment

Recommended for smoothing expression lines and winkles around the mouth, this treatment restores moisture, refines texture, minimizes creases and renews the lip area. A specialty lip mask is applied to help improve elasticity and soothe the skin for a smoother, plumper, youthful appearance. The result is a deeper hydration to the entire lip area.

Extractions

This treatment is a necessary maintenance ritual to address oily skin and periodic breakouts for those wishing to maintain clean and healthy skin. The skin is steamed and/or an oil-based softening agent is applied. Gentle pressure pushes impurities and dead cells to the surface.

Lymphatic Drainage

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) enhances the movement of lymph and connective tissue fluids and promotes healthy functioning of the lymphatic system.
