Treatment sequence and technique
This treatment begins with aqua skin resurfacing that uses a gentle water-based exfoliation combined with vacuum-assisted extraction. The process removes dead surface cells, clears clogged pores, and primes skin for targeted hydration and serum infusion. An enzyme application loosens dehydrated or flaky layers so subsequent steps penetrate more evenly and comfortably.
Following exfoliation, light extractions address congested pores when needed, and professional serums are infused to replenish moisture. A nourishing masque finishes the facial to calm and seal in active ingredients. Throughout, the esthetician assesses your skin and adjusts pressure, extraction level, and serum choice to match current needs described by returning clients.
What LED light adds
After resurfacing and infusion, targeted LED light therapy is applied to support ongoing skin health. The LED portion is designed to work synergistically with the resurfacing steps: it can help promote visible firmness and target concerns that benefit from repeated cellular stimulation without adding invasive downtime.
LED therapy is scheduled at the end of the facial so active ingredients remain in contact with the skin while light stimulates deeper responses. Clients who book in spring or autumn often choose this combination to recover from winter dryness or to restore skin after summer exposure, matching local seasonal demand patterns.
Local scheduling and client fit
Skin by Lisa’s Financial District location near the Ferry Building and Embarcadero makes this 90-minute service accessible for commuters and visitors. Appointments are offered in short, convenient windows that fit into lunch breaks or after-work schedules, and public transit (BART, Muni, F-line) or nearby metered parking often work well for short stays.
This facial is commonly chosen by busy professionals and tourists who want a comprehensive, restorative visit without prolonged recovery. Returning clients value the customized approach that addresses hydration, breakouts, or glow, and many book seasonally—especially in March–April and September–October when skin typically needs renewal.
