MEDICAL VS BEAUTY FACIALS: WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
If you’ve ever wondered whether a beauty facial at your local spa can deliver the same results as a medical facial in a clinic, you’re not alone. Both can feel relaxing but the outcomes are very different. At Persona, we specialise in treatments that not only pamper your skin, but also provide lasting clinical results. Let’s break down the differences.
Beauty Facials:
Beauty facials are offered in salons or spas. They typically include cleansing, exfoliation, massage and moisturisation. These treatments feel great and can improve skin temporarily, but they don’t target deeper concerns.
Medical Facials:
Medical facials, on the other hand, are performed in a clinic setting using advanced technology and prescription only products. At Persona we offer treatments such as:
A multi-step facial that detoxes, cleanses, exfoliates, extracts and hydrates.
Prescription strength skincare that addresses acne, pigmentation and ageing.
Creates micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate collagen for smoother, firmer skin.
These treatments go beyond surface level pampering, targeting issues like acne, pigmentation, fine lines and dehydration.
Why choose Medical Facials?
- Tailored to your skin’s needs
- Backed by science and clinical research
- Deliver long lasting, visible results
- Performed by trained professionals
FAQs:
- Are medical facials painful?
No! Most are comfortable and non-invasive
- How often should I have one?
This depends on your skin goals, but many clients choose monthly or seasonal sessions
- Do they replace my skincare routine?
Not at all! They compliment a good home routine for best results
Beauty facials may leave your skin glowing for a few days, but if you want real, lasting results, medical facials are the way forward. At Persona, we pride ourselves on offering advanced treatments that work with your skin, not just on it.
