Deep Facial Cleansing
The most necessary treatment for every face!
Deep facial cleansing is one of the most popular and at the same time pleasant treatments, as it is more like a moment of relaxation than a treatment. After deep facial cleansing your skin ¨breathes¨ and you feel refreshed with glowing, sebum-free and properly hydrated skin. This is why we always recommend a facial cleansing, before any other facial cosmetic treatment, for even better results from the following treatments that you will do. Also it needs to be noted that a facial enables the removal of dead cells and therefore helps the better absorption of the active ingredients of your daily moisturising and antiageing creams and serums.
| Treatment Time | 30-60 minutes |
| Duration of Result | From 3 - 6 months |
| Pain Level | Painless |
| Anaesthesia | None needed |

What is Facial Cleansing?
Facial cleansing is one of the best treatments you can offer to your skin. Why? Because Facial Cleansing, removes sebum and dead cells, but also opens blocked pores and cysts.
Our skin gets "dirty" every day from sweat, sebum secretions, dead cells, make-up, sunscreen, dust and small particles from atmospheric pollutants. And something that is not visible by our naked eyes, does not mean that it does not exist. We may not be able to distinguish with naked eyes the effects of everyday life and atmospheric pollution, but this does not mean that they are not constantly present and silently and "insidiously" cause skin damage. As the skin is daily "clogged" by all these, it does not breathe as it should, while at the same time its skin barrier is disrupted. The skin starts to look tired and dull, its normal cell renewal mechanisms are hindered and therefore your daily skincare products are not properly absorbed. The solution to all these problems is to have frequent facials.
What does Facial Cleansing offer?
Deep facial cleansing is a process that not only removes dead cells from the upper layers of the skin, but also contributes to its healthy condition. Facial cleansing should be the starting point for any other therapeutic protocol that you will follow afterwards, whether it has to do with acne treatment or antiageing treatments. In summary, we would say that the benefits of deep cleansing are the following:
- Acne Improvement
- Oiliness Control
- Glowing Effect
- Removal of Dead Cells
- Removal of Sebum and Toxins
- Deep Hydration
What Facial should I choose?
The options that you will find in our Clinics for facials are many and that’s why a medical consultation always precedes, in order to choose with us the appropriate type of facial, according to your skin needs.
In our Clinics you will find among many others, the signature facials of Oxygeneo and Hydrafacial, which incorporate, in addition to skin cleansing, a complete facial wellness protocol. You will also find the ‘’Make It Clear’’ Medical Facial Protocol, which is a facial cleansing for acne-prone skin that we recommend if you have acne.
The ‘’Make It Clear’’facial is part of the innovative "Make It Clear" protocol that effectively treats acne. Our Clinics were awarded with the Gold Awards, for this protocol at the Medical Beauty Awards, as the most effective protocol for acne.
Also, another facial cleansing that you will find exclusively in our Clinics is the Premium cleansing ‘’The Chanel Facial’’ which is the perfect facial, for those who have an important event such as a wedding, baptism, business meeting and want a bright and clean skin, with a must-have Gloss Skin Facial. In any case, whatever facial you choose with us, it is certain that you will enjoy the process and you will be completely satisfied.
Facial in Athens Price - Cost
Have you ever thought about how much money you spend every day, covering clogged pores and other skin imperfections? You cover them with cosmetic products and creams, which at the end of the day, make them worse and trap the sebum deeper in the skin. On the contrary, imagine how nice it would be, to wake up in the morning and not have to think about whether the make-up will cover your acne or other imperfections! How perfect it would be, not to use make-up at all, because your skin will be smooth, soft and glowing!
And this is exactly what facials offer you, correcting "the problem" at much more affordable prices than the cosmetics you buy to cover the problem. The average price of a deep facial is 50 euros.In our Clinics and you can be informed and choose, together with our Doctors, the facial that interests you, among 7 different medical protocols for Facials.
Facial Cleansing - Step by Step
Medical History - Skin Preparation
Before the facial, it is important to have a medical consultation with our qualified Doctors, who will carefully assess your skin’s condition. At this stage, a personalised facial protocol will be chosen, based on your skin needs and you will be informed of the combined treatments, which could be applied together with your facial, for maximum effects. After that the skin preparation begins, with thorough cleansing and antisepsis of your skin.
Ozone Therapy
At this step, ozone therapy is applied, causing hyperemia and giving ozone to your skin. Ozone therapy has disinfecting and antimicrobial effects, while at the same time it softens the surface layer, so that sebum and dead cells can be removed more easily, in the next steps of cleansing.
Diamond Dermabrasion
At this step, the diamond dermabrasion is used and ensures the removal of dead cells from the surface layers. It is a completely painless procedure, leaving the sensation of a relaxing massage, which with the appropriate lymphatic movements, simultaneously offers facial lymphatic decongestion.
Extraction of Sebum and Cleaning of Blocked Pores
In the third step, the pores are deeply cleaned and the sebum is removed. In fact, the blocked pores are deeply cleansed with the help of special tools, without causing any discomfort, as in the traditional removal of sebum extraction with the fingers.
Hydration - Skin Care
This last and extremely important step is completed with the ultrasound headpiece, which achieves deep penetration of active ingredients into the deeper layers of the skin.
Since the skin has now been completely cleansed, it is ready to receive a series of therapeutic "serums" of antioxidant ingredients, vitamins, retinol and hyaluronic acid, which are personalized according to your needs, by the medical staff of our Clinics.
Oxygen Therapy
The facial is completed with the infusion of highly concentrated oxygen directly into the outer layer of your skin, which gives an instant glow to your face. It is the most pleasant part of the procedure and it gives an amazing wellness feeling to everyone.
All you need to know about Facial Cleansing
Instructions before Facial Cleansing
If possible, it would be good to come without make-up on your face, on the day of your treatment.
You should have stopped using exfoliating products, which may contain salicylic, glycolic or other acids, as well as retinol, two days before your appointment.
It would be good to avoid prolonged sun exposure or solarium for up to two days before your facial.
Instructions after Facial Cleansing
It is absolutely necessary to wash your face from the very first day, after your treatment, using a mild cleanser of your choice, bearing in mind that you should not rub your face vigorously, when washing it, for the first week after your facial. Avoid using loofah, scrubs or peels until your skin has fully recovered after your facial.
Avoid vigorous physical activity and sauna for 2-4 days after facials. Increased blood circulation to the face and sweating on the face can cause burning sensation, itching and redness to the skin that has recently undergone facial cleansing.
It would be ideal not to apply make-up to the face for the first 24 hours, after your facial. In case you must put on make-up, we advise you to avoid removing make-up with baby wipes and intense rubbing on your face. We recommend removing make-up gently, using a mild facial cleanser.
It is also very important to use fresh and clean sheets, pillowcases and towels after the treatment, as the already used ones may cause you skin contamination.
For better results and healthy skin, we advise you to repeat your facials every 3-6 months.
Until your skin is fully healed, you should not use any products that contain Retinol, AHA, BHA and peeling products. Don't over exfoliate your skin by using extra exfoliants (like scrubs or exfoliating brushes) for the next 3-4 days after your facial. Excessive exfoliation can lead to irritation or sensitivity, so it's best to wait until your skin has fully recovered, before starting again with these products.
If you are taking oral isotretinoin for your acne, it is possible to have a facial. But you should inform us in advance, so that we can be more careful during your treatment.
Continuous moisturizing of the area is necessary after facials, for faster and better healing of the skin. We recommend the use of a special non-greasy reconstructive cream and hyaluronic serum for the first 5-7 days after your facial and you should apply them at least twice a day. Be careful not to use creams that are heavy in texture and products that are not oil-free, because there is a chance that you will get pimples from the oil, as the skin regenerates.
It is necessary to protect your skin from the sun after facial cleansing. You should apply sunscreen to your face and neck, every time you are exposed to the sun and reapply every 2 hours.
Facial Cleansing at Home
Facial cleansing at home, although it is done for economic reasons, is not the best facial you could have and it often ends up being a more expensive process than we think. First of all, there is insufficient preparation of the skin with outdated methods, such as the use of steam and incorrect extraction of sebum with the fingers and often pressure with the nails, which can cause scars and also infections. Also, products used at home for skincare are not the professional ones that a Clinic has and do not have the same results as those used by experts.
Although it is a non-invasive method, facial cleansing needs special attention, when it is done without knowledge, because its results can be exactly the opposite of what you expect and might cause a greater exacerbation of your skin problem. So as you understand, it is not the same as the facial done in a Doctor's Medical Clinic which means a safe environment that follows all hygiene conditions and which provides you with state-of-the-art medical devices.
Why should I choose Derm & Plastic Surgery Clinic for Facial?
In our Clinics we provide you with 7 different types of Facial Cleansing, depending on your needs and skin type and not just a simple facial cleansing, which some apply to everyone and which may not give you the desired results.
A Facial with us is regarded a serious Medical Procedure, it is done under the guidance and supervision of Doctors and with completely controlled conditions of hygiene and antisepsis.
In our Clinics we never proceed with cleansing, if the skin is not properly diagnosed first. Before your treatment, there is a discussion with our medical staff about exactly what you would like to offer to your skin, through facial cleansing, but also about what else worries you, so that you can deal with the problem you came for, holistically and correctly.
In the fast pace in which we all now live, we need moments of relaxation and well-being. And this well-being for our Clinics is just as important as the therapeutic part of our cleanings. This is why our cleansing treatments are carried out in luxurious spaces, with time for a therapeutic massage and above all at affordable prices for everyone, as the philosophy that represents us is ‘’Luxury at Affordable Prices’’.
Frequent Questions about Facial Cleansing
Depending on your skin type, you need 2 - 4 facials a year. Ideally you should do 2 facials per year, when you have normal or dry skin and then you can maintain the good effects with the right daily skincare products and possibly other treatments, such as Diamond Dermabrasion or Hydrafacial. For oily and acne-prone skins, cleansing is needed more often and 3 - 4 facials per year are necessary, i.e. every 3 - 4 months, in order to keep your skin healthy and your face clean.
As we already said the answer is Yes. It is very important that you start with a good facial, before starting any other treatments for your acne. That is because you need to have clean skin, in order for it to absorb better the components that therapeutic acne creams contain. Besides that, an acne-prone skin needs facial cleansing treatments around 3-4 times a year in order to control the oiliness, which is a major factor for acneic skins.
Deep facial cleansing does not worsen your acne. On the contrary, it treats acne and prevents its progression, making dermatological facial cleansing the starting point for all acne protocols.
The result after a facial is immediately visible, as soon as the mild irritation and redness of the first hours subside. From the very next day, your face is softer and more radiant, while you have a feeling of baby skin when you touch it. You will also notice how much more evenly your cosmetic products and make-up will apply after a facial and how much easier your creams will be absorbed.
There is no contraindication to facials during the summer season. In fact, during the summer season, sweating and the frequent use of sunscreens "clog" the skin, which is why a facial cleansing before or immediately after the summer holidays is always recommended.
In our Clinics we have offers and affordable prices for facial cleansing, which we constantly renew. If you are interested, all you have to do is to book a free consultation and our medical staff will help you choose the best facial for you.
