Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a medical-grade facial different from a regular facial?
Medical-grade facial treatments use prescription-strength active ingredients, TCA, Retin-A, and clinical-grade acids from BioRePeel® and VI Peel®, that are not available in standard spa settings. They are performed and supervised by licensed medical professionals.
What skin conditions can a medical-grade facial treat?
GFaceMD’s medical-grade facials address hyperpigmentation, sun damage, rosacea, active acne, and post-acne redness, dullness, dehydration, uneven texture, and fine lines. Protocol selection is based on your specific skin condition and Fitzpatrick skin type.
How often should I get a medical-grade facial?
Most patients benefit from medical-grade facial treatments every 4–6 weeks as part of a regular skin maintenance program. More intensive VI Peel® protocols may be scheduled every 6–8 weeks.
