Ultrasonic Facial in Brooklyn
Your skin needs a deep clean, but it turns red if anyone looks at it.
Not every skin likes a hands-on extraction. An ultrasonic facial uses fast, gentle sound vibrations to lift oil, dead skin and buildup from your pores. There is no squeezing and no scrubbing. It feels like a light hum on your skin.

A light hum and a fine mist of water as the spatula glides over damp skin. There is no squeezing, no scraping and no heat. Many clients say it is the calmest way they have had their pores cleaned.
Ultrasonic or deep cleansing?
Choose ultrasonic if your skin gets red easily, if you are nervous about extractions, or if you need to look fresh the same day. Choose a deep cleansing facial if blackheads are firmly set in and your skin handles pressure well. Not sure? Tell us how your skin reacted to past facials and we will pick with you.
Aftercare
- Makeup is fine the same day, though a few bare hours are nice.
- Use your usual gentle cleanser and moisturizer.
- Wear sunscreen, as always.
- If your skin is reactive, wait a day before retinol or acids.
When to wait or choose something else
- A pacemaker or metal implants in the face: tell us before you book.
- Pregnancy: tell us, and we will suggest a facial without the device.
- Broken skin, a cold sore or a skin infection: please reschedule.
- Deep, stubborn blackheads: a deep cleansing facial reaches more.

Ultrasonic Facial questions
How is this different from a deep cleansing facial?
A deep cleansing facial clears pores by hand. An ultrasonic facial uses gentle vibration instead, so it is softer on reactive skin.
Does it hurt?
No. Most people feel a light tingle or hum.
Can I do this before an event?
Yes. There is no redness to wait out, so it works well the day before.
Is it good for oily skin?
Yes. It lifts surface oil and buildup, and you can repeat it often.
Can I combine an ultrasonic facial with LED?
Yes. Many clients finish with LED light therapy. Both are in the Signature Facial package.
Is it good for teens?
Yes. It is gentle and a common part of our teen breakout plan.
