Skin Treatments The Facial For Him

Our luxurious male-focused facial provides a tailored experience designed to address the unique needs of men’s skin.

Facial exfoliation is the focus for this treatment, as male skin naturally tends towards producing more sebum and having more acidic pH levels.

This facial for men includes a steam cleanse, exfoliating blueberry smoothie scrub, extraction using ultrasonic technology, lymphatic drainage using ice globes to de-puff the face, and a peptide-infused eye and face mask with massage to finish.

This treatment also focuses on rehydrating tired eyes with application of Ilumaé eye cream.

Cost is $300
Takes 1 hour

More Men are Investing in Facials Than Ever Before

Men’s facials are not merely a clever way to make facials sound masculine; they are in fact medically sound treatments that are tailored to the specific needs of male skin.

Facials for men provide a scientifically backed method of skincare and treatment for men’s skin. It’s a dermatological fact that male skin tends towards a more acidic pH level, produces more sebum, and is generally thicker than female facial skin.

For these reasons, facial treatments that consider these attributes are designed, focusing on the skin concerns commonly experienced by male skin.

Men’s facials are officially on the rise, as more men are becoming savvy to treatment options for their skin, and they want to invest in their appearance and well-being.

More men are getting facials, and this growing trend can be attributed to several factors:

Increased awareness. With the rise of social media and the availability of information online, people are more aware of the importance of skincare. Men, like women, are now understanding the benefits of regular facials for healthy skin.

Changing gender norms. Traditional gender norms around masculinity have been evolving, allowing men to be more open to self-care practices. Taking care of one’s skin is no longer seen as exclusively feminine.

Celebrity influence. Many male celebrities openly talk about their skincare routines, including facials. This kind of visibility can significantly influence other men and improve a feeling of acceptance and safety in having these treatments.

Professional appearance. In today’s competitive job market, looking one’s best is often seen as an advantage. Clear and healthy skin contributes to a polished appearance, which can be particularly important in professional settings.

Stressful lifestyles. Modern lifestyles often involve high levels of stress, pollution, and irregular sleep patterns, which can adversely affect the skin. Men are realising that facials can help combat these effects.

Service offering. There’s a growing number of spas and salons that offer specialised skincare treatments for men. This accessibility makes it easier for men to explore facial treatments.

Self-care awareness. There’s been a significant shift in awareness of self-care, and, as a very positive result, a global trend toward self-care has emerged. People are recognising the importance of taking time for oneself, and facials are often seen as a relaxing and beneficial form of self-care.

It’s important to note that these trends might vary across cultures and regions, but overall, the acceptance and practice of in-clinic facial treatments among men is on the rise.

What to Expect with a Men’s Facial

The Men’s Facial at Contour Clinics: What to expect

Cleansing

To begin, your Skin & Laser Therapist will use a few drops of aromatherapy essential oil to promote a state of relaxation and signal the start of the treatment.

The first part of your facial will be to cleanse the skin, preparing it for the next steps. Your therapist will double cleanse the skin with a medical-grade cleanser and hot towel.

Exfoliation

Now that your skin is cleansed, it’s time to exfoliate, using Cosmedix Blueberry Smoothie Peel. This uses active skincare ingredients to break down dead skin cells, dirt and other pore-clogging debris from your skin. Your therapist will use steam therapy to maximise the benefits of this exfoliation.

Extraction

Once the skin has softened from the steam and exfoliation, your therapist will perform an extraction treatment using a microcurrent device, gently expelling sebaceous filament, dirt, oil and other impurities. They may also spot-treat large blemishes at this point using manual extraction.

Lymphatic Drainage

Next, your therapist will perform a mild lymphatic drainage massage designed to de-puff the skin. Using dermatological ice globes, they will begin on the forehead working down the face and neck. These therapeutic ice globes will also help calm any inflammation following your extraction.

Eye and Face Mask

You therapist will apply Societé Peptide Eye Masks, followed by the Societé Peptide Mask for the face. This is then left for 10 minutes, allowing the skincare ingredients to fully penetrate your skin and work their deeply hydrating magic.

Facial Massage

Meanwhile, your therapist will perform a relaxing 10-minute neck, trapezius and decolletage massage using massage oil.

Skincare

It’s time for your eye and face masks to be removed. At this point, you may wish to boost your facial by adding on the option of LED light therapy.

Your facial treatment will be finished with the application of Ilumaé Eye Créme, followed by any skincare steps that your therapist finds suitable for your skin, such as hyaluronic acid serum, moisturiser and SPF.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are facials for men any different to women’s facials?

Yes – these men’s facials are tailored specifically to the unique attributes of male skin. Men’s skin naturally tends towards a higher pH level (more acidic) and it produces more sebum (oil) than female facial skin. It’s also thicker.

For these reasons, a men’s facial usually includes an exfoliating element, deep cleansing, and extraction – all to combat congestion and to penetrate the thicker male skin to reach the deeper layers.

How often should I be getting a facial?

There’s no compulsory frequency for having facials and they can be enjoyed often as part of your self-care and grooming routine.

If you have specific skin concerns or goals, it’s best to discuss this with your Skin & Laser Therapist so they can recommend an effective treatment plan for you.

It may be recommended to allow a few weeks between treatments to allow cell turnover, repair and rejuvenation to take effect. Or you may be advised to keep up your facial treatments on a regular basis to reach your complexion goals.

How long does a facial take?

Generally, having a facial treatment will take around 45 minutes to 1 hour.

This is to allow proper time for all elements of the treatment: deep cleansing, medical-grade exfoliation, steam extraction, de-puffing massage for lymphatic draining, and application of nourishing skincare.

These elements all work in harmony with one another, so it’s important that all stages be properly completed for best results.

Are there any products I should avoid leading up to or after my facial?

We recommend avoiding active ingredients in your skincare products for one week leading up to your facial treatment. These ingredients include AHAs or acids that work as chemical exfoliation or resurfacing actives.

We also recommend avoiding these same ingredients for around 7–10 days after your facial treatment, as the newly refreshed skin will be more sensitive to these types of products.

How long do the results last?

Results depend on how effectively you maintain them. You can prolong the results by using proper cosmeceutical skincare products in your at-home regimen.

Make sure you incorporate exfoliation into your weekly routine (but not for the first two weeks after your treatment) and be diligent with wearing sunscreen.

Don’t use any moisturisers or serums that contain comedogenic ingredients – these are the ones that block your pores, leading to congestion.
