What Is a Professional Facial? A Complete Guide to Healthier, Radiant Skin

Whether you’re dealing with persistent breakouts, dullness, or early signs of aging, professional facials are one of the most effective ways to reset and rejuvenate your skin. Unlike your regular at-home routine, a facial is a customisable, in-clinic skincare treatment that uses advanced techniques and medical-grade products to deeply treat your skin.

Performed by trained aestheticians, professional facials involve a combination of deep cleansing, exfoliation, extractions, massage, and targeted serums or masks tailored to your skin type and concerns. The result? Healthier, clearer, and visibly glowing skin.

Why Choose a Professional Facial?

While at-home skincare plays an essential role in your daily routine, professional facials go deeper. Using high-performance tools and products, facials target layers of the skin you can’t reach at home. They can:

  • Unclog pores and remove impurities

  • Hydrate and nourish dry, dehydrated skin

  • Calm inflammation and reduce redness

  • Brighten and smooth dull or rough texture

  • Stimulate collagen and improve elasticity

  • Support long-term skin health and balance

Types of Facials Offered at Blueness by Oceania

We believe every skin is unique—so we offer a range of facials tailored to your goals:

1. Deep Cleansing Facial

Ideal for acne-prone or congested skin, this facial includes thorough extractions, detoxifying masks, and antibacterial ingredients to clear clogged pores and reduce breakouts.

2. Hydrating Facial

Dry or sensitive skin? This soothing treatment restores moisture using ingredients like hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and aloe vera to replenish and calm the skin barrier.

3. Anti-Aging Facial

Target fine lines, dullness, and elasticity loss with collagen-boosting serums, firming massage, and antioxidant-rich masks for a more youthful glow.

4. Hydrofacial

This all-in-one treatment uses a patented device to cleanse, exfoliate, extract, and hydrate the skin with nutrient-packed serums. It’s non-invasive, suitable for all skin types, and leaves you instantly radiant.

5. Luxury LED Light Facial

Combining deep cleansing with LED light therapy, this facial reduces acne, calms inflammation, and promotes healing using customised wavelengths of light.

6. Luxury Blueness Facial (Custom)

Not sure what your skin needs? Our signature facial is fully personalised using a blend of techniques, ingredients, and technology to suit your skin condition, type, and goals.

How Often Should You Get a Facial?

The ideal frequency depends on your skin type and specific concerns. Here’s a quick guide:

Skin Type/Concern Recommended Frequency
Oily / Acne-Prone Every 2–4 weeks
Dry / Sensitive Every 3–4 weeks
Normal / Combination Monthly maintenance
Anti-Aging Goals Every 4 weeks with home care

Regular facials help maintain skin health, especially when paired with a supportive at-home regimen.

Pre- and Post-Facial Skincare Tips

Before Your Facial:

  • Avoid exfoliants, acids, or retinol for 3–5 days

  • Skip sun exposure, tanning beds, and facial waxing

  • Arrive with a clean, makeup-free face

  • Inform your aesthetician about any allergies, medications, or skin treatments

After Your Facial:

  • Avoid makeup, sweating, and heat for 24 hours

  • Do not exfoliate for at least 2–3 days

  • Stick to a gentle cleanser and hydrating moisturiser

  • Always wear a broad-spectrum SPF 50 daily

  • Pause active ingredients like AHAs, BHAs, and retinol for a few days

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will I break out after a facial?
A: You might experience mild purging or a few small breakouts, especially after deep cleansing or extractions. This typically clears up within a few days.

Q: Can I get a facial if I have sensitive skin or rosacea?
A: Yes! We offer gentle facials designed specifically for sensitive skin. We avoid harsh exfoliants and use soothing, calming ingredients.

Q: How soon will I see results?
A: Many clients see an instant glow and smoother texture right after the treatment, with full benefits becoming more visible over the following days.

Q: Are facials painful?
A: Not at all. Facials are relaxing and therapeutic. Some extractions may cause slight discomfort, but the process is gentle and never painful.
