Facials
While a spa visit is often synonymous with relaxation, a medical-grade facial at our practice is equally rooted in results. We use advanced delivery systems and high-performance nutrients to cleanse, balance, and nourish your skin from the inside out, targeting dullness and congestion at their source. Our facials menu is designed to provide immediate clarity while strengthening your skin’s natural barrier. Experience the perfect marriage of luxury care and clinical precision with a facial designed for your skin’s unique needs.

A medical-grade facial is a clinical skin treatment designed to achieve results that over-the-counter products simply cannot replicate. Unlike traditional spa facials, these procedures use pharmaceutical-grade ingredients and advanced delivery systems to treat the skin’s deeper layers. The overall purpose is to reset the skin’s health, addressing specific concerns like acne, aging, or dehydration while providing a protective foundation against future environmental damage. At The Downtown Wellness Spa, we offer a tiered approach, allowing you to choose between efficient maintenance or intensive, high-tech rejuvenation.
Perfect for those with a busy lifestyle, the Express Facial is a concentrated treatment designed to provide maximum results in minimum time. This session focuses on the essentials of skin health: deep cleansing, professional exfoliation, and a customized infusion of serums. It is the ideal “pick-me-up” for maintaining a clear, balanced complexion between more intensive treatments.
Skinwave is a multi-dimensional aqua-delivery system that goes far beyond traditional hydro-facials. This treatment uses specialized hydrogen-enriched water to neutralize active oxygen that contributes to skin aging, combined with a rotating suction head to deeply cleanse pores. With the addition of electrical pulse technology to enhance serum absorption, Skinwave leaves your skin incredibly hydrated, plump, and clarified.
Often referred to as the “Gold Facial,” this treatment uses 24-carat gold-plated surgical needles to deliver a customized “cocktail” of Botox, fillers, and antioxidants just beneath the skin’s surface. Unlike traditional injections, this microchanneling approach focuses on the skin’s texture, effectively shrinking pores, smoothing fine lines, and providing a toned, luminous finish that lasts for months.
The SKNLAB Derma-Facial redefines traditional skin rejuvenation by combining advanced aqua-delivery with five powerful energy modalities. Utilizing a comprehensive six-handpiece system, this clinical facial offers total customization to address a wide range of concerns, from deep hydration and lymphatic drainage to lifting and contouring. This facial integrates specialized technologies—including electroporation for serum absorption, Electric Muscle Stimulation (EMS) for firming, and ultrasound therapy—alongside exclusive NOON Aesthetics paraceutical solutions. By leveraging the patented DermShield™ technology, the SKNLAB Derma-Facial delivers high-performance results with virtually no irritation, leaving the skin profoundly refreshed, tightened, and radiant.
Your experience begins with a thorough skin analysis to ensure we select the correct protocol for your goals. During the treatment, you will rest comfortably as your provider performs a systematic series of steps—typically beginning with a deep cleanse and moving into exfoliation or microchanneling. For our advanced facials like Skinwave, you may feel a gentle suction or a refreshing cooling sensation. The process is entirely non-invasive and designed to be as relaxing as it is effective, leaving your skin refreshed and glowing.
Our diverse facial menu allows us to target nearly any skin frustration with clinical precision. These treatments are specifically designed to address:
Dullness & Dehydration: Restoring moisture and a healthy “lit-from-within” glow.
Enlarged Pores & Congestion: Deeply clearing debris to refine skin texture.
Fine Lines & Surface Wrinkles: Smoothing the first signs of aging.
Uneven Tone & Redness: Balancing the complexion for a clearer appearance.
Immediate and Cumulative Clarity
One of the primary benefits of our facials is the instant gratification of seeing smoother, brighter skin before you even leave our office. However, the benefits are also cumulative; by scheduling regular clinical facials, you are training your skin to behave more healthily, leading to better product absorption and a stronger skin barrier over time.
Professional-Grade Customization
When you choose a medical-grade facial at The Downtown Wellness Spa, you are receiving a treatment that is tailored to your skin’s specific needs on that exact day. Whether your skin is feeling sensitized from the weather or congested from stress, our providers can swap active ingredients and technologies to ensure you achieve a balanced, high-end result that is unique to you.
Facials are the most versatile treatments in our practice and are suitable for almost everyone! Whether you are 20 or 70, there is a protocol in our menu that can benefit your skin. These treatments are safe for all skin types and tones. We only recommend postponing a facial if you have an active sunburn, open wounds, or a severe skin infection in the treatment area.
There is virtually no downtime associated with our facials. Most patients leave our office with a healthy, radiant flush that subsides within an hour. For the Botox Microchanneling Facial, you may experience mild redness for 24 hours. We recommend avoiding heavy makeup for the rest of the day and staying hydrated. As always, a professional-grade SPF is your skin’s best friend following any clinical exfoliation.
You can expect to see an immediate improvement in your skin’s texture and luminosity. Your skin will feel softer to the touch, and “crepey” fine lines caused by dehydration will be visibly plumped. While a single facial provides a beautiful temporary boost, the most transformative results in pore size and skin tone are seen through consistent monthly sessions, which keep your skin in its peak rejuvenated state.
For over a decade, The Downtown Wellness Spa has remained at the forefront of aesthetic innovation, bringing world-class technology like Skinwave and Botox Microchanneling to our local community. Our longevity is built on a foundation of trust and a deep understanding of individual skin needs. Our team is dedicated to helping you achieve a lifetime of healthy, radiant skin through the perfect balance of luxury and clinical precision.
For most patients, we recommend a clinical facial every 4 to 6 weeks. This timeline aligns with your skin’s natural 28-day cellular turnover cycle, allowing us to remove dead cells and nourish new ones as they emerge.
Absolutely. Treatments like Skinwave are actually very soothing for sensitive skin because they focus on deep hydration and neutralizing oxidative stress rather than harsh chemical peeling.
A spa facial is focused on relaxation and surface-level hydration. A medical facial at our practice uses FDA-approved devices and pharmaceutical-grade active ingredients to create actual structural change in the skin.
We generally recommend having your facial before your injections or waiting two weeks after your injections. This ensures that the massage and heat involved in a facial do not interfere with the placement of your fillers or neurotoxins.
While “purging” can occasionally happen as we clear out deep-seated congestion, our goal is to balance the skin. Most patients find that their skin remains clear and calm due to the professional-grade soothing agents we use during each session.
