Facials in Albany, NY

Conveniently located to serve Albany, Schenectady, Latham, & Troy.

FACIAL PROCEDURES

Limiting sun exposure, staying hydrated, and using high-quality skin care products are all excellent ways to care for your skin. A professional facial can be a very relaxing and luxurious experience, but it’s also another intelligent choice for smooth, clear, radiant skin. When you visit Spa One for one of our medical-grade facials, an experienced, licensed esthetician will analyze the condition of your skin and help you select the one that is suited to the unique needs of your skin.

OUR SELECTION OF FACIALS

Whether you want to look radiant for a special occasion or you simply want to take the best possible care of your skin, we have a facial that will provide the improvements you want. Choices include:

  • The Spa One Facial is customized for your skin type and may include deep pore cleansing, exfoliation, facial massage, and mask therapy.
  • The Express Facial is an excellent choice for fresher skin when you don’t have a lot of time. We will renew and refresh your skin while you relax for this 30-minute treatment.
  • The Acne Teen Facial can help you have clearer, healthier skin. Through a combination of a blended chemical peel and deep cleansing, this treatment will help clear blemishes, reduce oil, get rid of acne-causing bacteria, and prevent future breakouts. For best results, we recommend having this treatment every other week.

i’ve never had a FACIAL. WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT?

Each facial we offer is personalized to the condition of your skin; however, in general you can expect:

  • Gentle cleansing of the skin on the face
  • Skin assessment to identify areas of dryness, aging, breakouts, and other skin conditions
  • Application of steam to open pores, soften oils, and hydrate
  • Facial massage
  • Gentle removal of blackheads and whiteheads (extractions)
  • Application of a mask to address your concerns such as aging, acne, or dull coloring
  • Hand, arm, neck, and scalp massage
  • Application of skin care products such as toners, serums, moisturizers, and sunscreen

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF HAVING A FACIAL?

In addition to being an enjoyable, relaxing spa treatment, a facial, when performed by an experienced, licensed esthetician, provides a variety of rejuvenating benefits to the skin, including:

  • Increasing circulation for a more radiant glow
  • Exfoliating dead skin cells
  • Reducing puffiness and dull coloring by accelerating the skin’s natural cleansing process
  • Promoting collagen production to soften fine lines and increase firmness
  • Preventing and treating breakouts by cleansing the pores and skin thoroughly
  • Addressing areas you can’t see or reach yourself such as the sides of the face, inside the ears, and the back

This spa visit is also an opportunity for you to learn about appropriate skin care products and purchase them for use at home if desired.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I HAVE A FACIAL?

For most skin types, a monthly facial is beneficial. For effective acne treatment, we recommend an acne facial every other week. If you’re looking for long-lasting results, you may want to consider HydraFacial MD®, which combines elements of several skincare treatments into one session.

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FACIAL AND A CHEMICAL PEEL?

Facials and chemical peels provide many of the same benefits including removing dead skin cells, unclogging pores, and stimulating skin cell growth. As indicated by the name, chemical peels involve applying a chemical substance such as salicylic acid on the skin and leaving it there for a specific length of time. Chemical peels can range in strength from mild to aggressive and provide more noticeable improvements than facials. Both facials and chemicals peels are formulated for specific needs such as anti-aging and acne treatment. Our experienced skin care professionals will recommend the options best suited to your skin type and the conditions you want to address.

CAN FACIALS BE COMBINED WITH OTHER TREATMENTS?

Yes. Facials may be used to prime the skin for other treatments, to enhance a relaxing massage, or in combination with other spa treatments such as chemical peels or microdermabrasion for more complete facial rejuvenation. Facials are included in some of our popular Bridal Packages to help brides look their best for the big day.

I can’t recommend this group enough. All of the nurses, the front desk staff, the facility and Dr.Gannon have been nothing short of amazing. I have never had an issue getting questions answered, getting in contact with anyone, great communication and such a great experience all around. I went for a lift and augmentation and it was truly such an easy process. I recommend to everyone!!!

Staff is friendly, the place is spotless and Dr Gannon is the best! I had breast cancer and I have one of the prettiest boobs now! Unfortunately, nothing could be done with the radiated breast. Now on to the abdomen! I’m so excited. Dr Gannon is not only the best in her field, she is truly an artist of the body!

Recently I had a breast reduction surgery by Dr. Fournier. While still in the healing phase I can see the results are positively physically life changing! They look amazing too! Wonderful doctor, down to earth, also the nurses and office staff were kind, accommodating and knowledgeable. Thank you.

The experience I had with Dr Gannon is beyond words. I had been trying for YEARS to get a reduction. She really took the time to listen to me. I felt so comfortable with her skills. It's been over 2 months since I had surgery and I could cry I am so happy with my results and the care I received from Dr. Gannon and everyone at the Plastic Surgery Group. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

I would just like to echo what Blake said. I too had Dr. Fournier do an otoplasty a little over a year ago now and he did an incredible job! I could not be happier! His bedside manner was great and was very receptive to me having local instead of general anesthesia (which I asked if it was possible to do). Additionally, everyone else in the office was very kind and welcoming! Overall 100/10

Dr. Gannon did an awesome job with my surgery and I couldn’t be happier! Her scheduler, Tabitha was super sweet, patient and answered all my questions, making me feel at ease. I had talked to a few different schedulers before her, but she really stood out. Overall, it was a fantastic experience. Thanks, Tabitha and Dr. Gannon!

My 1.5 year old son had a large cut on his forehead that was 5 days old, and still bleeding after already seeing both an urgent care and an ER. We went to see Briana Benson, PA at the Plastic Surgery Group and she cleaned up the wound, used local anesthetic, and the placed 4 sutures all in the office with my husband and I were holding our squirming son. She has an amazing way with kids, and she was able to be so confident, professional, and fast when doing this. It was also a precise suture, and will minimize scaring. If I could give her more than 5 stars, I would. Hopefully, we will never need a plastics office again for our little one, but if we ever do, we will surely be returning.

My wife and I went for the first time and, from entry to departure were very pleased. The admittance clerk was very polite and efficient. We saw PA Briana Benson. She was very attentive and informative. I had an in office procedure done and it went very well and easy. We were both pleased with our visit.

Had Surgery performed yesterday by Dr. Gannon in the office yesterday. I was so nervous about the procedure and Dr. Gannon and her incredible office staff completely put me at ease. I highly recommend Dr. Gannon and the facility! A completely pleasant experience from start to finish. Thank you Dr. Gannon, Tabitha, the nurses who assisted, and all office staff!

Wouldn’t trust any other practice but this one to get anything done. I love the girls at the spa and the services are amazing. I’ve seen Dr.Hargrave over the years and he’s so easy going and professional. My results have been amazing which is why I keep coming back to get little things done
