Complete service guide

What this treatment is designed to do.

A customized exfoliating facial using a glycolic-based step to support smoother-looking texture and a brighter skin appearance.

Our Glycolic Acid Facial is a powerful resurfacing treatment that uses Shihan's premium glycolic-based formulas to deeply exfoliate the skin, unclog pores, and stimulate fresh cell turnover. This facial is may suit improving the appearance of acne scars, fine lines, sun damage, and dull, tired skin. Glycolic acid , a naturally derived alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) , penetrates beneath the surface to dissolve dead skin cells and reveal a brighter, smoother, and more even complexion. With continued treatments, clients often notice reduced pigmentation, refined texture, and a youthful glow. This facial is may suit anyone seeking a radiant refresh, especially those with congested, aging, or uneven skin.

A professional facial is a sequence, not one universal formula. Cleansing removes surface buildup; exfoliation is selected according to the named service and current sensitivity; extractions are performed only when appropriate; and masks, serums, moisturizers, or light-based finishing steps may be chosen around the agreed goal. Product strength and technique should match the skin seen that day rather than a label alone.

Preparation and aftercare

Protect your appointment and result.

Use the written instructions given for your appointment; this guide does not replace individualized directions.

Before your visit

  • Pause experimenting with new strong products immediately before the visit.
  • Tell Nahid about retinoids, acne medication, recent peels, injections, lasers, waxing, sun exposure, and active irritation.
  • Do not stop a prescribed medication unless the prescribing clinician tells you to do so.
  • Schedule around important events if your skin commonly becomes pink, dry, or sensitive after exfoliation.
  • List every acid, exfoliant, retinoid, acne treatment, and recent hair-removal service used near the area.

After your visit

  • Keep the routine gentle and use only the products recommended for the immediate post-facial period.
  • Avoid picking, scrubbing, or layering strong exfoliants onto newly treated skin.
  • Protect the skin from unnecessary sun exposure and follow the sun-protection guidance provided at the visit.
  • Contact the studio if redness, swelling, discomfort, or another response is stronger or lasts longer than expected.
  • Do not stack another peel, scrub, retinoid, or hair-removal service onto freshly exfoliated skin.

Pause and check first

Tell the studio before booking when any of these apply.

  • Active rash, infection, open skin, sunburn, or significant irritation.
  • A recent procedure or medication that changes skin sensitivity.
  • A history of difficult reactions to acids, enzymes, fragrances, or facial products.
  • Uncertainty about whether a facial or a medical dermatology visit is the better next step.

Who may be a good fit?

This service may be worth discussing when your priority is dull or uneven-looking skin that may benefit from professional exfoliation. Fit is confirmed by comparing dull or uneven-looking skin that may benefit from professional exfoliation with the treatment area, current condition, relevant history, and expectations.

What should I share before booking?

Before booking, pause experimenting with new strong products immediately before the visit. Tell Nahid about retinoids, acne medication, recent peels, injections, lasers, waxing, sun exposure, and active irritation. Do not stop a prescribed medication unless the prescribing clinician tells you to do so. Those details help Nahid decide whether the safest next step for dull or uneven-looking skin that may benefit from professional exfoliation is the planned appointment, an adjustment, a delay, or another service.

What should I expect afterward?

Afterward, keep the routine gentle and use only the products recommended for the immediate post-facial period. Avoid picking, scrubbing, or layering strong exfoliants onto newly treated skin. Protect the skin from unnecessary sun exposure and follow the sun-protection guidance provided at the visit.

Will I need maintenance or more than one appointment?

Some clients book facials around seasons or events; others use a series. Frequency should follow skin response and goals, not a fixed promise. The next visit is based on how the treated area responds and whether dull or uneven-looking skin that may benefit from professional exfoliation remains the priority.

Where can I see the current price and appointment time?
