Which Facial is Right For You?

July 25, 2025

Facials aren’t just a luxurious treat—they’re an essential part of any healthy skin routine. Whether you’re aiming for a radiant glow before a special event, long-term improvement in skin tone and texture, or targeted treatment for concerns like acne or dryness, a professional facial can make all the difference.

At Phases Skin Care & Laser Center, we offer a curated selection of advanced, results-driven facials designed to meet a wide range of skin types, goals, and lifestyles. But how do you know which one is right for you?

Let’s walk through the different types of facials we offer, what makes each unique, and who can benefit most.

Dermaplaning Facial

Best for: Dull skin, peach fuzz, and anyone looking for a smooth, glowing canvas. 

Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation treatment that gently removes dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz) using a specialized surgical blade. The result? Instantly smoother, brighter skin and better absorption of skincare products.

Benefits:

  • Removes built-up dead skin and hair for a polished look
  • Allows for smoother makeup application
  • Non-invasive with no downtime
  • Safe for most skin types, including sensitive skin

Ideal Candidate: If you struggle with rough texture, dullness, or want your skincare to work more effectively, dermaplaning may be your perfect go-to. It’s also a favorite before special events. Opting for dermaplaning can be a great way to maintain the surface of your skin, whether that’s on its own or in conjunction with another treatment.

Glo2Facial

Best for: Dull, tired, or imbalanced skin in need of full-spectrum revitalization—from face to body. 

The Glo2Facial is a next-generation treatment that taps into your body’s natural superpowers. It combines three powerful steps: Oxfoliation™ with O₂ bubbles, LUX ultrasound infusion, and a gentle lymphatic massage to detox and boost circulation. While the technology does the work, your body unlocks the results—creating a deeply refreshed, oxygenated glow.

Benefits:

  • Immediate glow with zero downtime
  • Stimulates oxygenation from within the skin
  • Customizable for different concerns: Brighten, Firm, Hydrate, Protect, Refine, Smooth
  • Detoxifies with lymphatic drainage
  • Enhances product absorption with ultrasound technology
  • Safe for all skin types, including sensitive and mature skin
  • Can be used on the face and body

Ideal Candidate: Anyone looking for a fully customizable, no-downtime treatment that enhances radiance, balances skin, and supports long-term skin health. Great for first-timers and seasoned facial lovers alike—especially those who want a body treatment option too.

HydraFacial®

Best for: Congested, dehydrated, dull, or uneven skin in need of deep exfoliation and hydration. 

The HydraFacial® is a patented, non-invasive treatment that deeply cleanses, exfoliates, and hydrates the skin through a multi-step process. It’s a gentle yet powerful facial that delivers both immediate glow and long-term skin improvement—making it a staple in many of our patients’ skincare routines.

Benefits:

  • Gently exfoliates and resurfaces the skin
  • Deeply cleanses pores and removes blackheads, whiteheads, and congestion
  • Hydrates with peptide- and antioxidant-rich serums
  • Offers customizable boosters for brightening, firming, and anti-aging
  • Reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone
  • Improves skin texture and radiance with no downtime
  • LED light therapy (included in Deluxe and Platinum treatments) calms irritation and targets signs of aging
  • Lymphatic drainage (included in Platinum) helps detox and depuff

Ideal Candidate: If you’re dealing with congested pores, breakouts, or dryness—or if your skin just needs a “reset”—HydraFacial is an excellent choice. Because it’s gentle and highly customizable, it’s safe for all skin types—including sensitive and acne-prone skin. Whether you’re prepping for a special event, refreshing your skin between laser treatments, or simply want to maintain a healthy glow year-round, HydraFacial offers a no-downtime solution with immediate results and long-term benefits.

DiamondGlow®

Best for:  Textured skin, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and those wanting long-term improvement. 

The DiamondGlow facial uses a diamond-tipped handpiece to gently exfoliate the outer layer of the skin, removing impurities and dead cells. Simultaneously, a vacuum technology infuses targeted serums into the skin to address specific concerns such as hydration, brightening, or anti-aging. It’s more intensive than a HydraFacial and ideal for those ready to take their skin to the next level.

Benefits:

  • Exfoliates with a diamond-tip wand for deeper, more precise resurfacing
  • Simultaneously infuses SkinMedica® Pro-Infusion Serums for targeted results
  • Improves rough skin texture and smooths the skin’s surface
  • Minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
  • Brightens dull, uneven skin tone
  • Reduces the look of enlarged pores
  • Enhances overall clarity, tone, and radiance
  • No downtime and safe for most skin types

Ideal Candidate: This treatment is safe for most skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin, thanks to its customizable approach and serum selection. It’s particularly ideal for patients who want a more advanced facial treatment with visible, long-term benefits — without the downtime of more aggressive procedures. 

Personalized Facial

Best For: Those unsure where to start or who want a facial tailored to their unique skin needs.

At Phases®, our patients have trusted us for years to help revitalize their appearance and deliver beautiful, lasting results. Our personalized facial is designed with that same philosophy in mind—completely customized to you. Whether you’re new to professional skincare or working toward specific goals, this facial adapts to your skin’s unique needs.

Our licensed aestheticians take the time to assess your skin and craft a treatment plan that addresses both short-term improvements and long-term skin health. Every personalized facial includes three foundational steps: deep cleansing, exfoliation and/or extractions, and a soothing mask. From there, your provider will incorporate targeted serums, advanced techniques, or elements from other facials to help your skin appear fresh, balanced, and radiant.

Benefits:

  • 100% tailored to your skin concerns and goals
  • Helps steer your skin in the right direction with professional guidance
  • Incorporates key facial elements: cleansing, exfoliation, mask, and more
  • Can include techniques or products from other treatments as needed
  • Ideal for first-time facial clients or those with evolving skin concerns
  • Builds the foundation for a long-term, personalized skincare plan

Ideal Candidate: If you’re not sure where to start—or simply want a facial experience that’s designed just for you—our personalized facial is the perfect solution. It’s especially helpful for those with sensitive or reactive skin, as well as anyone navigating multiple skin concerns such as dryness, breakouts, texture, or aging.
