A Medi Facial (short for Medical Facial) is a professional, non-invasive skincare treatment performed in a clinical setting under the supervision of a dermatologist or licensed aesthetician. Unlike regular spa facials, which focus mainly on relaxation and surface cleansing, Medi Facials are customized to address specific skin concerns with a more targeted approach using advanced techniques and medical-grade products.
Key Features of a Medi Facial
- Tailored Treatment: Customized according to your skin type, concerns, and goals.
