Snowball Facial
The Snowball Facial was the original treatment developed approximately in 2000 and is now commonly known as MicroPeel. The treatment consists of a deep cleanse followed by Dermaplaning which removes the top layer of dead skin cells. Dermaplaning is achieved by using a small blunt tip surgical blade to scrape away the dead skin cells, smooth the texture and also removes the vellus hair leaving the skin baby smooth. After the Dermaplaning portion of the treatment is complete, a light to medium strength lactic, glycolic, mandalic, salicylic acid is applied to stimulate various depths of the skin and address specific skin concerns. The finishing touches are to calm the skin with select products and apply cryo therapy. Cryo Therapy is using a dry ice mixture with a specific technique to calm and close the skin. This Snowball Facial is designed to reduce brown spots, fine lines, and boost the skin’s cellular regeneration rate leaving a beautiful radiant glow. This treatments is ideal for those who suffer from Rosacea and sensitive skin.
