Introduction
There’s a reason why the first thing people think of when they hear “self-care” is a facial. This is because facials are extremely versatile and capable of combating a multitude of skin concerns and are generally safe for all skin types. If you’re worried about anti-aging, acne, uneven skin tone, hydration—whatever the case may be, a facial has the answer. In Queensbury, our aestheticians offer a variety of different facials that can be customized to your individual needs and concerns, so you never receive a simple “one-size-fits-all” treatment.
A facial is one of the most effective and accessible ways to maintain healthy, glowing skin, as it’s a multi-step treatment designed to cleanse, exfoliate, nourish, and hydrate the skin using targeted products and techniques tailored to your specific skin type and concerns. Whether you’re dealing with breakouts, signs of aging, dullness, or simply want to refresh your complexion, facials can be fully customized to deliver visible, lasting results.

Our aesthetician in Queensbury will conduct a skin analysis before beginning treatment to ensure you receive the best care for your specific needs.
Everyone’s skin is different, as are everyone’s concerns regarding their skin. For this reason, the best first step before undergoing a facial is to consult with a professional aesthetician who specializes in facial rejuvenation treatments, such as those at our location in Queensbury. During this consultation, our team will conduct a thorough skin examination, detailing specific areas of concern as well as your history with skincare treatments, to determine the best option for you. This is your opportunity to be completely open and honest about what you would like to receive from your treatment, and to ask any questions you may have. When you’re ready, you’ll often be able to receive your first treatment the same day as your consultation.
Once your skin has been evaluated through a consultation in Queensbury, the treatment then starts and includes several key steps: deep cleansing to remove impurities, exfoliation to slough off dead skin cells, steam (if appropriate) to open pores, and gentle extractions to clear clogged areas.
After extractions, your aesthetician may apply a mask tailored to your skin’s needs, followed by a serum, moisturizer, and SPF to complete the treatment. Some facials may also incorporate tools like LED light therapy or high-frequency devices for added benefits. The entire process typically takes between 45 and 75 minutes, depending on the selected treatment. After your facial, you can expect your skin to feel smoother, appear more radiant, and be better prepared to absorb skincare products. Slight redness may occur, especially if extractions are involved, but this generally resolves within a few hours.
The cost of a Facial in Queensbury varies significantly depending on the type of facial you get. One of the reasons it has become one of the most popular facial rejuvenation treatments on the market is that it comes in many variations, accommodating every skin type and concern. For example, we offer facials that range anywhere from $99 to $199 per session. To determine the exact cost of your facial treatment, a consultation with one of our aestheticians is your best first step. We’ll also review potential packages available if you’re interested in receiving multiple sessions.
