Let’s Get You Glowing Again

The harsh Utah climate strips the skin of its natural moisture. Between the high altitude, the relentless sun, and the dry air of the Wasatch Front, your barrier takes a daily beating. You feel it as tightness, congestion, and a dull surface that makeup can no longer hide. In our Murray clinic, a facial is not just an indulgent luxury. It is an essential component of clinical skin fitness. We approach the face with anatomical precision, utilizing medical-grade ingredients to repair cellular damage and rebuild your barrier. Our passion is restoring that baseline, giving you the structural support you need to let your skin breathe.

  • Congestion and Breakouts: Safely extracting impacted sebum to clear active acne and prevent future flare-ups.
  • Uneven Texture: Smoothing the rough, sandpaper-like texture that develops from dead cell buildup.

The Science Of The Scrub

How do Facials work?

The skin is a highly active organ that constantly turns over new cells. As we age, that cellular turnover slows down. Dead skin cells begin to stack up on the surface, trapping dirt, oil, and bacteria underneath. This creates a dull appearance and prevents your home skincare products from penetrating properly.

We use enzymatic or mild chemical exfoliants to dissolve the bonds holding those dead cells together. Once the surface is clear, we perform necessary extractions. Finally, we flood the newly exposed, receptive tissue with highly concentrated active ingredients like hyaluronic acid, peptides, and antioxidants. This forces the tissue to rehydrate and accelerates the production of fresh, healthy cells beneath the surface.

Checking Your Skin's Vibe

Who is a good candidate for Facials?

You may be a good candidate if…

Everyone, from a younger girl dealing with adolescent breakouts to mature adults managing structural deflation and hormonal changes, benefits from routine skin maintenance. You are an excellent candidate if you want to improve your skin’s overall health and feel confident in your natural complexion. We treat clients from Murray, Cottonwood Heights, and the greater Salt Lake City area who simply want to invest in their beauty through consistent, professional care.

Facials may not be appropriate if…

We prioritize your safety from the very beginning. You should pause your visit if you have an active, severe viral breakout, such as cold sores, or an open facial wound. Patients with highly reactive, compromised skin barriers or severe, cystic acne flare-ups may need to be assessed by our medical staff to determine if a more clinical intervention is required before proceeding with manual exfoliation.

Setting The Mood For Success

How should I prepare for Facials?

  1. Pause the actives: Stop using prescription retinoids or harsh exfoliating acids 3 to 4 days before your appointment.
  2. Skip the wax: Avoid waxing or threading your face for at least 48 hours prior to avoid extreme sensitivity.
  3. Arrive barefaced: If possible, come without makeup. We will thoroughly cleanse your face regardless.
  4. Bring your lineup: Take a photo of the skincare products you currently use at home so our knowledgeable staff can provide accurate, helpful advice.

Basking In The Afterglow

What can I expect after my appointment?

During a facial Salt Lake City patients will feel completely covered and cared for. Once the session is over, the physical response is highly predictable.

Immediate effects

You will leave with a distinctly plump, dewy glow. Your skin will feel deeply hydrated and physically lighter.

Short-term effects

For the first 24 to 48 hours, your skin may be slightly red depending on the level of extractions performed. This is normal vascular activity.

Activity restrictions

You can return to your life immediately. We advise avoiding heavy, sweaty workouts or saunas for the rest of the day to keep your freshly cleaned pores clear.

When to contact the office

Reach out if you experience severe itching, extreme redness, or localized swelling, which could indicate a rare allergic reaction to a botanical ingredient.

Instant Gratification

When will I notice results?

Following a facial, you will see visible results the moment you look in the mirror. Your tone will be brighter and your skin will look profoundly hydrated. For many patients, it is the first time they have seen their skin look so radiant without the use of makeup or filters.

Keeping A Good Thing Going

How long do results last, and how often is maintenance needed?

The deep hydration and luminous finish typically last for one to two weeks. To truly change the physiology of your skin and maintain those results, consistency is required. We highly recommend planning a clinical facial every 4 to 6 weeks to match your natural cellular turnover cycle. Regular maintenance is the key to achieving your long-term skin vision.

Facials vs. Other Options

Patients often ask how our service compares to other available options in the city.

Medical Facials vs. Day Spa Facials

Traditional day spas often focus heavily on nail care, manicures, and pedicures. While a day spa offers a great environment to relax, their facials typically rely on mild, over-the-counter products. As a medical clinic, our expertise allows us to use highly concentrated, pharmaceutical-grade ingredients that physically change the structure of the skin.

Facials vs. RF Microneedling

Facials are excellent for surface-level hydration, barrier repair, and ongoing maintenance. If you are dealing with deep structural sagging or profound acne scars, we will pivot you toward energy-based devices like RF microneedling to address the deeper layers of the tissue.

Why choose Rise Rejuvenation for Facials?

You shouldn't have to choose between a sterile medical environment and a high-end luxury experience. At our convenient location in Salt Lake City, we blend the two. We are dedicated to the science of the skin, but we also want you to forget the stress of the outside world. Our estheticians do an amazing job reading the tissue and adjusting their approach on the fly. We love sharing our knowledge with our patients. It is always our goal that you leave our clinic saying it was such a great experience and that you finally feel equipped to take control of your skin health."

Frequently Asked Questions

It is possible to experience a minor "purge" a few days after your visit. As we deeply cleanse the pores and accelerate cellular turnover, underlying congestion is brought to the surface. This is a normal, healthy part of clearing the skin.

Yes. We have specific, pregnancy-safe facial protocols. We simply avoid certain chemical exfoliants like salicylic acid and focus on intense hydration and barrier support.

We recommend scheduling your facial 7 to 10 days before a major event. This allows any minor redness from extractions to completely subside, leaving you with a perfect, smooth canvas for makeup.

Our providers use a gentle, precise technique to clear pores. While you will feel pressure, it should never be acutely painful. We always communicate with you to ensure your comfort.

We advise separating these appointments. Because facials involve facial massage and pressure, performing one immediately after injectables can risk shifting the placement of your Botox or dermal filler.

Facials are one of the safest aesthetic treatments available. The primary risk is mild, transient redness or minor flaking a few days later, especially if an advanced chemical exfoliant was used. Because we employ an elevated, medically-backed approach, we carefully select products that match your specific skin type to minimize any risk of irritation.

The cost of a facial depends entirely on the level of customization required. Pricing shifts based on the inclusion of advanced modalities like dermaplaning, specialized chemical peels, or targeted LED therapy. We provide completely transparent pricing before we begin any service. Because these treatments feel so luxurious while delivering real results, a facial package also makes an amazing gift for a friend or family member.
