Your Questions, Joanna’s Answers.
Guidance from a professional who truly understands your skin concerns.
Yes they are worth it. Facials go beyond what you can do at home by deeply cleansing, hydrating and repairing your skin with professional tools and products. They also stimulate circulation and cell renewal, which means longer-lasting results when done consistently.
Most people typically benefit from a facial every 4 to 6 weeks, since that's roughly one full skin cycle. For corrective treatments or special events we may recommend a tighter schedule to achieve faster results.
Dermatologists focus on diagnosing and treating skin conditions. Estheticians specialize in non-medical treatments like facials, exfoliation and hydration. This makes estheticians ideal for ongoing skin maintenance, glow and prevention.
Yes. Professional facials can reduce congestion, calm inflammation and improve healing. At Skin Devotee, I combine extractions with soothing treatments to prevent irritation while supporting long-term skin balance.
Absolutely. Regular facials improve circulation, boost collagen and smooth fine lines. Many of my clients notice firmer, brighter skin after just a few treatments especially when we use modalities like microcurrent and LED therapy.
Cooler months often have less UV exposure which makes treatments like peels and LED therapy safer and more effective. This is when I often recommend my clients tackle pigmentation or deeper resurfacing goals.
Focus on gentle cleansing, rich hydration and professional treatments that rebuild your skin barrier. In the studio I use oxygen infusion and custom masks to deeply rehydrate and protect against cold weather stress.
I recommend a glow-focused treatment with exfoliation, hydration and LED therapy is best. Our signature Triple Lift Facial gives instant definition and radiance, which is perfect for events where you want your skin to shine.
Start at least 3–6 months ahead with monthly facials to correct texture, tone, and hydration. Closer to the big day, I recommend gentler treatments for radiance without irritation so your makeup goes on flawlessly.
Summer skin often needs decongestion and repair from sun exposure. I recommend lightweight, cooling treatments that focus on hydration and antioxidant support, while avoiding strong exfoliants right before heavy sun exposure.
Yes absolutely! Men's skin often has unique needs like thicker texture, more oil and irritation from shaving. A professional facial helps balance and soothe skin while preventing ingrown hairs.
For best results schedule your facial 3 to 5 days before your event. This gives your skin time to settle while still keeping the glow fresh.
At-home routines are important for maintenance, but professional facials use higher-grade ingredients and technologies you can't replicate at home. Think of them as two parts of the same puzzle: home care for daily upkeep and facials for deep renewal.
Yes you can combine facials and injectables as they complement each other. Ideally, facials are scheduled at least 1 to 2 weeks before or after injectables to avoid irritation and maximize results.
The Triple Lift Facial is our client favorite because it combines sculpting massage, microcurrent, LED light therapy and a signature mask for immediate glow and definition. It is one of the treatments we offer which my clients swear by for visible transformation.
