What Is a Facial?

Facials are professional skincare treatments designed to cleanse, exfoliate, and nourish the skin, promoting a clear, hydrated, and youthful complexion. These treatments address various skin concerns, from dryness and acne to fine lines and hyperpigmentation. At Mehta Plastic Surgery, our facials go beyond the surface, combining advanced techniques with medical-grade products to deliver visible, long-lasting results.

Highlighting Our Signature Treatments

Diamond Glow Facial

The Diamond Glow Facial is a next-level skin resurfacing treatment that exfoliates, extracts impurities, and infuses the skin with condition-specific serums—all in one step. This non-invasive treatment leaves your skin instantly radiant, plump, and hydrated. It’s perfect for addressing dryness, uneven texture, hyperpigmentation, and fine lines.

Chemical Peels

Our chemical peels are customized to target your specific skin concerns, from sun damage and discoloration to acne and fine lines. By exfoliating the outer layers of skin, chemical peels stimulate cell turnover, revealing a smoother, brighter complexion. We offer a range of peel intensities to suit different skin types and goals, ensuring safe and effective results.
