A facial is primarily a cosmetic and supportive skincare treatment. Persistent acne, rosacea, eczema, psoriasis, unexplained rashes, or other medical skin concerns may require evaluation by a dermatologist.
There is no single facial that is best for everyone.
Your ideal treatment depends on your skin's current condition, your primary concerns, and the results you're hoping to achieve.
If you're unsure, our team can help determine which option is most appropriate for your skin.
Skincare should be individualized for every patient, particularly when treating skin of color.
Certain types of irritation or inflammation can contribute to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. For this reason, exfoliation, extractions, and other facial treatments should be selected according to your skin's condition and tolerance.
At YHMD, your skin type, tone, sensitivity, and specific concerns are considered when developing your treatment approach.
The goal is to provide effective skincare while avoiding unnecessary irritation.
