Choosing the right facial can feel overwhelming—especially with so many options available. Whether you're new to facials or wondering if you’re using the right one, this guide will help you understand the different types of facial treatments and how they benefit your unique skin type.
When it comes to skincare, everything starts with the stratum corneum—the outermost layer of your skin. Think of it as your skin’s first line of defense. It locks in moisture, protects against environmental stressors, and plays a key role in how smooth, radiant, or sensitive your skin feels. A healthy stratum corneum is the foundation of healthy-looking skin—and the right facial helps keep it in top shape.
Deep Cleansing Facial – Best for Oily or Acne-Prone Skin
If you struggle with clogged pores, blackheads, or frequent breakouts, a deep cleansing facial helps clear impurities and balances oil production. It typically includes steam, extraction, and purifying masks. This treatment gently exfoliates and decongests the stratum corneum, allowing your skin to breathe and absorb nutrients more effectively.
Best for: Oily skin, acne-prone skin, congested pores
How often: Every 3–4 weeks
Hydrating Facial – Best for Dry or Dehydrated Skin
This facial restores moisture with humectants like hyaluronic acid and soothing ingredients like aloe vera. It leaves your skin feeling supple, calm, and plump. By replenishing moisture in the stratum corneum, it strengthens the skin’s natural barrier and helps prevent further dehydration.
Best for: Dry, sensitive, or mature skin
How often: Monthly or as needed
Brightening Facial – Best for Dullness or Pigmentation
Using ingredients such as vitamin C, niacinamide, and enzymes, this facial reduces uneven tone and pigmentation, restoring radiance to tired skin. Gentle resurfacing of the stratum corneum enhances light reflection and encourages cell turnover for a more luminous complexion.
Best for: Dull skin, sunspots, uneven tone
How often: Every 4 weeks
Anti-Aging Facial – Best for Mature or Sagging Skin
This facial uses advanced techniques such as lifting massage, collagen masks, or radiofrequency (RF) to firm the skin and soften fine lines. It helps to revitalise the stratum corneum, improving elasticity and supporting deeper layers of the skin for long-term youthfulness.
Best for: Aging skin, wrinkles, loss of firmness
How often: Monthly, with maintenance treatments
