The Intraceuticals Oxygen Facial does not deplete the skin in any way and in fact can be used as a skin recovery treatment for very stressed or sensitive skin types or even after medical resurfacing treatments. Skin is deeply nourished and balanced and the delivery of the infusions creates the perfect foundation for healthy skin renewal. Intraceuticals Oxygen Facials have, in the past, consisted of a spray of oxygen to the skin. The Intraceuticals Topical Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment works with oxygen under pressure to deliver a high-tech infusion to the skin – basically the skin is immediately transformed, luminous, and lifted.

Facials that have fabulous anti-aging properties are Vitamin C Facial, Oxygen Facial, and mild to moderate peels as in microdermabrasion with a facial. Your skin will glow and look years younger!

The best facial are the ones that will address your needs!! Alot of people look at a facial as an expensive "pampering session" and if you only have a facial once or twice a year then that's usually what it is. However if your commited to yourself and want to see results then professional treatments on a more regular basis are a must. A good esthetician will not only analyze your skin but should also listen to what you say your concerns and goals are as well. Based on that, both of you can map out a gameplan with realistic goals in a progressive (not aggressive) approach and the ways you will get there. I encourage you to research skincare professionals in your area. Find out the type of treatments they offer, about their education/experience and perhaps call or go in for a consultation. You must feel comfortable with the specialist and the treatments you are receiving.

Oxygen facials have NO effect on the skin. It is scientifically proven. Go research it. Please don't waste your money on this type of facial!

Sana... are you serious? Have you not done your research? Intraceuticals is NOT the normal oxygen facial. Do your research (better yet, try one for yourself first) before you make claims you CANNOT back up.

The Hyperbaric Oxygen Facial by Intraceuticals has been a wonderful treatment for our practice. It is unlike any other oxygen facial, and delivers immediate results our patients love. Since this treatment is a celebrity favorite, people ask for it by name. Below is a new TV show, called Beauty Mark that featured my office talking about the Hyperbaric Oxygen facial.

Okay- I am a believer. After undergoing a series of treatments the Intraceutical Rejuvenation treatment works wonders. It gives a light lift, and makes the skin glow for a few days. It also helps with fine lines. makes a person look years younger instantly. I have had oxygen facials before, they do nothing compared to the Intraceuticals Treatments. I highly recommend this treatment!!

Sana A. you don't know what you are talking about. I don't even have to work in the industry to know the difference. I live with a gal who not only does the treatment but has been lucky enough to have it done to her more than once. I have seen the difference and it most certainly works. Why if it didn't work would Madonna herself have a machine at her home with her own personal facialist doing the treatment for her whenever she wants to look her absolute best? Because it works silly.
