Facials vs. Medical Grade Facials: The Identity Difference

Reset Your Skin   When it comes to skincare, not all facials are created equal. While traditional spa facials focus primarily on relaxation and maintenance, medical grade facials are designed to deliver visible, corrective results — without sacrificing comfort. At Identity Aesthetics MedSpa, our signature line of medical grade facials are proudly marketed as Reset Facials — because they do more than refresh your skin… they reset it. And the best part? Reset Facials are a time to relax just like a traditional facial — with extra perks. You’ll enjoy a calming, spa-like experience while receiving clinical-strength treatments tailored to your skin’s unique needs. What Is a Reset Facial? A Reset Facial is our elevated approach to corrective skincare. It combines: Deep cleansing and professional exfoliation   Medical-grade, results-driven ingredients   Advanced treatment techniques   Customized correction plans   A relaxing, restorative experience   Unlike a basic spa facial that works mainly on the surface, Reset Facials are designed to improve overall skin health at a deeper level while still allowing you to unwind and recharge. How Our Reset Facials Address Common Skin Concerns Acne & Congested Skin Acne requires targeted correction — not just surface cleansing. Our Reset Approach for Acne: Deep pore cleansing to remove debris and excess oil   Enzyme therapy or light chemical exfoliation   Safe, strategic extractions   Medical-grade salicylic or mandelic acid treatments   Anti-inflammatory and oil-balancing serums   Barrier-repair hydration   We focus on calming active breakouts, reducing acne-causing bacteria, balancing oil production, and preventing future flare-ups — not simply drying the skin out. Advanced Option: Sciton BBL for Acne For persistent acne and post-acne redness, we offer Sciton BBL. BBL can: Target acne-causing bacteria   Reduce inflammation   Improve post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation   Stimulate collagen for smoother texture   It’s an excellent add-on or next-step treatment for patients who want enhanced correction and faster results. Age-Related Skin Concerns (Fine Lines, Wrinkles & Loss of Firmness) As collagen production decreases over time, skin may appear thinner, duller, and less elastic. Our Reset Approach for Aging Skin: Advanced exfoliation to accelerate cell turnover   Peptides and growth factors to support collagen production   Potent antioxidants to protect against environmental damage   Hyaluronic acid infusion for deep hydration and visible plumping   This approach softens fine lines, improves texture, and restores a youthful glow — all while you relax. Advanced Option: Erbium YAG Laser Resurfacing For deeper wrinkles, sun damage, and more advanced texture concerns, we offer Erbium YAG laser resurfacing treatments. Erbium YAG: Precisely removes damaged surface layers   Stimulates collagen remodeling   Improves fine lines and deeper wrinkles   Refines pores and uneven texture   Provides controlled resurfacing with manageable downtime   This treatment is ideal for patients ready for more dramatic rejuvenation. Rosacea & Redness Rosacea-prone and sensitive skin require a gentle, strategic approach. Our Reset Approach for Rosacea: Non-stripping, barrier-supportive cleansing   Minimal, controlled exfoliation   Anti-inflammatory serums   Cooling, redness-calming masks   Strengthening the skin barrier   Our goal is to reduce inflammation, minimize visible redness, and improve skin resilience without triggering flare-ups. Advanced Option: BBL for Redness Sciton BBL is highly effective for: Diffuse redness   Broken capillaries   Rosacea flushing   Vascular lesions   By targeting unwanted vessels, BBL helps create a clearer, more even-toned complexion. Hyperpigmentation & Sun Damage Dark spots, melasma, acne marks, and sun damage require consistency and professional-strength correction. Our Reset Approach for Pigmentation: Targeted exfoliation to lift pigmented surface cells   Brightening agents such as vitamin C and pigment inhibitors   Customized corrective treatments   SPF education to prevent recurrence   Advanced Options: BBL + Erbium YAG BBL helps break up excess pigment while stimulating collagen.   Erbium YAG resurfaces damaged layers and improves uneven tone and texture.   When combined strategically, these treatments significantly improve discoloration and restore clarity. Traditional Facial vs. Reset Facial Traditional facials focus primarily on relaxation, using cosmetic-grade products and surface-level exfoliation to give your skin a temporary glow. In contrast, Reset Facials at Identity Aesthetics MedSpa combine the calming, restorative experience of a traditional facial with medical-grade, clinical-strength formulations and deeper, targeted exfoliation to address specific skin concerns. This approach not only provides immediate relaxation but also supports long-term skin transformation. Reset Facials truly offer the best of both worlds — spa-level relaxation with medical-level results.
