Overview & Procedure

What the treatment is and how it's performed

What it is

A facial with Obagi products with vitamin C, an antioxidant that protects the skin from sun and pollution damage and evens out the skin tone. The skin is cleansed, exfoliated and given a vitamin C serum and mask. The treatment can also be done on the neck, décolleté, back and arms.

  • Can be taken as a single treatment, or every four to six weeks as maintenance.

  1. The practitioner goes through your skin and your wishes.
  2. The skin is cleansed and exfoliated.
  3. Impurities are removed if needed.
  4. The treatment ends with serum, a mask and care suited to your skin.

The treatment takes 45–60 minutes.

Experience & Recovery

Pain level, downtime and healing

The treatment does not hurt. Extraction of blackheads can feel a little uncomfortable.

  • Common: slight redness for a few hours.
  • Uncommon: a few small spots in the first days as the skin clears.
  • Rare: irritation or an allergic reaction to a product.

  • Use mild skincare for the first day.
  • Wait until the evening or the next day before wearing make-up, if you can.
  • Use a high-factor sunscreen.
  • Avoid saunas and hard exercise for the rest of the day.

No downtime. The skin can be slightly red for one to two hours, especially after extractions. You can return to your day straight away.
