Pregnancy Facial
Enjoy a gentle, pregnancy-safe facial designed to nourish, calm, and deeply hydrate sensitive skin without harsh products or ingredients. Feel soothed and refreshed with a treatment tailored for expectant and sensitive clients.
How It Works
After a customized skin analysis and a soothing cleanse, your provider applies nourishing moisturizers and gentle, non-toxic exfoliating masks — such as fruit enzyme or very mild AHA formulas. All products are carefully selected to avoid retinoids, high-dose acids, and any ingredients associated with potential pregnancy risks. Manual extractions, light facial massage, lymphatic drainage, and safe hydration boosters may be used. The session concludes with comforting creams and a layer of UV protection, leaving the skin calm and refreshed.
What It Targets
Pregnancy facials are tailored to treat:
- Dryness, flakiness, or oil imbalance
- Sensitivity, redness, and mild irritation
- Dullness, uneven tone, and mild pigmentation
- Pregnancy-triggered acne and congestion
- Puffiness and tired-looking skin
Each session is adjusted for your unique skin needs, respecting the heightened sensitivity common during pregnancy.
Benefits
Key benefits of pregnancy facials include:
- Deep yet gentle hydration and nourishment for glowing skin
- Reduction in redness, irritation, and sensitivity

- No harsh actives, chemicals, or risks—just soothing comfort and visible improvement

Questions?
We're here to answer your questions and provide the best services for your needs.
Are there any risks, side effects, or downtime after a facial?
Most clients experience little to no downtime after a facial at a med spa, and side effects are typically minimal — such as slight redness or sensitivity that fades within hours. Our expert team uses gentle, carefully selected products to ensure a relaxing treatment that leaves your skin refreshed and glowing. You can return to your daily routine right away, feeling confident in your radiant results.
Is it safe to get a facial while pregnant?
Better Med Spa’s Pregnancy facial is safe because it uses only gentle, pregnancy-approved ingredients—avoiding harsh chemicals, strong acids, retinoids, and invasive treatments that aren’t recommended during pregnancy. Every facial is tailored by our expert team to address your skin’s unique needs while ensuring maximum comfort and safety for both mother and baby. We focus on soothing, hydrating, and nourishing techniques that provide visible results without irritation, so you can relax and enjoy a worry-free, glowing experience.
Can I lay on my side during the facial because I am pregnant?
Yes, you can lay on your side during a facial for comfort — just let your esthetician know your preference, and they will adjust the treatment setup so you can relax and enjoy your facial safely.
How do I choose the right facial for my needs?
We recommend booking a skin consultation to meet with one of our experts, who will assess your skin type, goals, and any specific concerns during your consultation. Whether you’re looking to brighten, hydrate, calm sensitivity, or address blemishes, we’ll recommend the treatment that delivers the results you want for radiant, healthy skin. Our customized approach ensures you get the perfect facial tailored just for you.
How long do the results from a facial last and how often should I get one?
Results from a facial typically last for several days up to a week, with deeper benefits — like hydration, radiance, and improved skin texture — often continuing for a month. We recommend receiving facials once a month, which is why we created our facial memberships so you can save on your favorite services and maintain your glow!
Past Client Experiences
"I have noticed a significant difference in the overall appearance of my skin and my friends and family have as well. I am excited to come in for follow-up sessions!"
"I came in 2 weeks ago for their Green Peel, which is a natural facial peel formulated with algae. It was my first time doing a skin peel so I was a bit anxious, but my tech Priscilla did a great job of informing me about the treatment throughout the process and about the aftercare."
"Overall - phenomenal experience. Staff from the estheticians to the front desk were so knowledgeable and kind."
"I got the Personalized Facial with a complimentary skin consultation with Xia. And it was so beyond amazing. This was by far one of the most intensive facials that I have ever gotten and I loved how much attention to detail Xia had throughout our entire session."

"Outstanding service and spa."
"The Glass Facial was amazing. They specialize in Korean Beauty and only use products gentle for your skin unlike many Western treatments. My skin looks great even days later. I still have a glow and glass look with just simple skin care and moisturizing like I normally do. I definitely recommend this salon and suggest you try the K-Beauty services!"

"This is definitely a place I trust and will keep coming back to for my future skincare treatments. Plus, reasonable price! Highly recommended!"
"It has been a month since I got Rejuran, and at least six people have complimented my skin since then! Izzy is amazing, her technique is professional and surprisingly painless, but what impressed me the most is her sense of aesthetics. She really listened to what I wanted, communicated actively with me, and confirmed everything carefully until I felt completely comfortable."

"Grace did a fantastic job. I don't have anything to compare it with, but the full service felt amazing. I was surprised by the number of steps included and how involved it ended up being.
