A facial is usually a salon service where the skin is pampered well by skincare professionals. It comprises cleansing, moisturizing, exfoliating, and other steps that are customizable as per the client’s needs and concerns. These steps together intend to superficially improve overall skin appearance and health, provide relaxation, and address cosmetic skin concerns (excluding the core ones).

Medi Facial Procedure
Medi Facial procedures may slightly vary depending on the chosen type of Medi Facial and the specific skin concern being targeted.
The basic Medi Facial Steps are:
- Cleansing– The skin is first properly cleansed with a mild, non-irritant cleanser to make the skin free of impurities and make-up.
- Exfoliation– The practitioner uses a suitable technique like dermaplaning, chemical peeling, or microdermabrasion to get rid of the cell debris by peeling off the top skin layer. Dermaplaning focuses on unclogging pores and improving cell turnover. Chemical peeling aims to make the skin look youthful and evenly textured. Microdermabrasion is highly advanced skin exfoliation done with crystals or diamond-tipped handpieces.
- Hydration– A special cosmeceutical like Vitamin C or Hyaluronic Acid is applied to deeply hydrate the skin, simultaneously with exfoliation.
- Nourishment– A soothing cream is applied all over the face to heal injured skin. Thereafter, a face serum or mask is applied to infuse revitalizing nutrients into the skin.
