Signature Facial-AK: Your Skin’s Favorite Hour
What Makes It “AK”?
Signature Facial-AK is our customized, results-driven facial designed to restore clarity, glow, and calm in one thoughtfully sequenced treatment. Every step is adapted to your skin on the day you visit—texture, tone, hydration, and sensitivity—so you leave with a smoother surface, a healthy radiance, and a plan to keep the glow going at home.
Who It’s For
If you want visible refresh without downtime, this service is for you. It’s ideal for skin that feels dull, congested, uneven, or dehydrated. We tailor pressure, enzymes, exfoliants, and masks for first-timers and facial regulars alike, including sensitive or combination skin.
What to Expect During Your Visit
1) Skin mapping and consultation
We begin with a quick lifestyle and product review, then map zones of dehydration, congestion, and sensitivity. This informs your product choices and massage techniques.
2) Double cleanse
A nourishing oil-based cleanse lifts sunscreen and makeup; a water-based cleanser removes impurities without stripping. Warm compresses soften skin and prep for exfoliation.
3) Enzyme or gentle exfoliation
Depending on your skin’s tolerance, we use fruit enzymes or a fine, professional polish to dissolve dull surface cells. This reveals a smoother texture and improves product absorption.
4) Steam and targeted extractions
Light steam encourages pores to relax. Extractions are precise and minimal—only where needed—to refine the look of pores and reset congestion comfortably.
5) Balancing tonic and essence
We layer lightweight hydration to rebuild your moisture barrier and prep for actives.
6) Custom mask cocktail
Clay for T-zone, gel or cream for cheeks—sometimes both at once. We may add boosters (niacinamide, peptides, or soothing botanicals) to address your current goals.
7) AK facial massage
Our signature massage blends lymphatic strokes, light sculpting, and acupressure to reduce the appearance of puffiness and soften facial tension. It’s the relaxing moment your skin has been craving and a smart way to support circulation.
8) Advanced enhancements (as needed)
Your esthetician may incorporate high frequency for post-extraction care, cooling globes to calm, or LED light to support clarity and bounce. Enhancements are chosen case-by-case to keep the treatment effective and gentle.
9) Barrier-building finish
A targeted serum, moisturizer, and SPF lock in hydration and protection. You’ll leave with a tailored routine and simple steps you can actually follow.
Benefits You Can See and Feel
Smoother texture and a softer look to pores
Balanced hydration with a comfortable, non-greasy finish
Brighter, more even-looking tone
Calmer appearance of redness from daily stressors
A relaxed jaw, temples, and brow from tension-melting massage
Most guests notice an immediate glow that looks fresh, not shiny. With consistent visits, your baseline stays clearer and more even between appointments.
How We Personalize Your Facial
No two Signature Facial-AK treatments are identical. We adjust:
Exfoliation level: enzyme-only for sensitive skin; add gentle polishing for resilient areas.
Masking zones: clay where you’re oilier; cream or gel where you’re dry.
Massage focus: lift through cheekbones, soften jawline, or reduce under-eye puffiness.
Enhancements: LED for clarity and bounce, high frequency for post-extraction care, or cooling tools for instant calm.
Aftercare: Keep the Glow Going
That night: keep it simple—cleanse, moisturize, and skip exfoliants.
48 hours: avoid tanning beds and intense workouts if your skin feels flushed.
Weekly rhythm: use your recommended gentle exfoliant 1–2 times a week and apply SPF daily.
Hydration tip: layer essence or serum under your moisturizer for lasting comfort.
How Often Should You Book?
Skin thrives on rhythm. For most guests, every 4–6 weeks maintains results. If you’re working toward a specific goal—like clearer pores before an event—we’ll create a mini-series plan and tweak your home care to match.
FAQs
Will it irritate my skin?
We work within your tolerance and skip any step your skin doesn’t need. The goal is a refreshed barrier, not a stripped one.
Can I combine this with peels or microcurrent?
Yes, when appropriate for your skin. We’ll advise on timing and whether to add enhancements or schedule them as a separate service.
Is it safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
We customize product choices and omit contraindicated ingredients. Please mention pregnancy or breastfeeding when booking so we can plan accordingly.
