Main protocol for each facial is the following for each client: Cleansing the skin with a cleanser and then exfoliation with a scrub. Client is then placed under a steamer for the facial pores to open for the extractions. While the client is under a steamer a wonderful shoulder and neck massage is given. Extractions are done followed by High Frequency (to close down the pores), a lymphatic massage is performed on the facial to relieve the sinuses and puffiness and for also draining the toxins. A mask is then applied on the face for about 15 to 20 minutes. The final procedure is removing the mask, applying an eye cream, face cream and sunscreen and a neck cream! Duration time of treatment is about 90 minutes.
