How Often Should Someone Get a Facial for Optimal Skin Health?

Sticking to a regular facial regimen can be an excellent way to keep your skin glowing and healthy — but just how often are in-office facials appropriate and safe for your complexion? The answer will vary from patient to patient based on a number of unique individual factors, and our dedicated aesthetic team at The DeRosa Center in Boston, MA — under the direction of double board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Jaimie DeRosa — is here to help you find the right answer for you. Take a closer look below at what to know about professional facials, including how facials can help your skin, which type of facial may be most beneficial for you, and — of course — how often you can expect to repeat your facial treatments for the most compelling and longest-lasting results possible.

How can professional facials help my skin?

There are virtually endless benefits of incorporating regular in-office facials into your existing skin care regimen. At The DeRosa Center, we are proud to offer the advanced collection of Geneo™ facials, which work to address a diverse range of issues that contribute to poor skin health and appearance — like dead skin cells, dehydration, surface impurities, and others. By combining specialized techniques and products for deep cleansing, exfoliation, and hydration, Geneo facials can help to improve skin texture, tone, evenness, and more. Some of the most common skin concerns that can be dramatically reduced with a dedicated facial regimen include:

• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Rough skin texture
• Patchy skin
• Uneven skin tone
• Enlarged pores
• Dry or oily skin
• Acne
• Redness

How often should I get a professional facial?

The most advantageous frequency for professional facial treatments will vary from patient to patient based on several variables, including the type of facial being used, the strength of the facial, the patient's specific skin concerns and their overall skin health, their individual response to treatment, their at-home skin care routine, and many others. Following a thorough skin assessment and consultation, one of our knowledgeable aesthetic specialists will help you determine the most appropriate facial frequency for you. On average, we often recommend scheduling a medical-grade facial about once per month to allow the skin cells time to regenerate and "turn over" between treatments.

Which type of facial should I get?

Because everyone's needs, goals, complexion, and even budget are unique, we are proud to offer a comprehensive range of facial choices. Some of our most popular Geneo facials performed in our convenient Boston, MA aesthetic office include:
