I’ve never had a facial, what should I expect?

One of my favorite sentences to hear is “I’ve never had a facial before.” This lets me know that after your first appointment with me, your life will be forever changed. It sounds dramatic, but time and again, it’s proven true. Skincare is an expression of love and during a facial, I pour all of my love into your service. When you arrive to your appointment, you will be greeted & shown into my room where you can make yourself comfortable. Depending on your service, you may be asked to change into a spa wrap so I am able to access your neck & decolletage. Once you’re settled in, I have an extremely comfortable bed that you will lay on for your service. We will discuss the goals for your facial and answer any lingering questions you may have. After assessing your skin & listening to your goals, I will recommend a few treatments that you may choose from, for example, dermaplaning, microdermabrasion or enzymes, and we will proceed from there. Once your service is completed, we discuss aftercare, schedule your next appointment and you leave glowing & deeply relaxed.


How should I prepare for a facial?

To receive the maximum benefits of your facial, follow these tips before your appointment —

  1. Skip strong at-home treatments the week before your service.

  2. Do not tan or burn near your appointment (or ever, wink wink.)

  3. Avoid exfoliating (physically or chemically) and discontinue retinoid use, 3 days before your appointment.

  4. You do not need to come with cleansed skin, skin will be cleansed at your appointment.

  5. Workout before your appointment, instead of after.

  6. Resist the urge to “fix things” and leave all of the work to me.


Why don’t you offer add-ons for facials?

Simply put, they are not necessary at Sisu Esthetics! The price you pay for a facial is all inclusive. Because I customize each treatment for you, your facial will include whatever your skin needs at that very moment. I have also found that this method takes stress & confusion away from the client and puts the responsibility on me, the skincare professional.


Do you offer specials and/or discounts?

Absolutely, yes! I love rewarding my wonderful clients & there are a few ways I do that. Here are the details:

I have a special event coming up — when should I schedule my facial treatment?

Of course you want to look your best when special events come up, and I’m here to help.

It is best to receive a facial 2 to 7 days before your event.

If your skin is especially sensitive or in need of extensive extractions, plan on coming in 5-7 days before your event. This will give your skin time to fully heal and reap the benefits of the facial.

If you have been receiving regular facials, and know how your skin reacts, I recommend coming to see me 2-4 days before your event.


Something came up, how do I change my appointment?

Reach out to me and we will find another time that works. Keep in mind my cancellation policy, see the Policies page for further details.
