How the treatment works
The Manual Lifting Facial is a fully hands-on service that pairs advanced facial massage with professional skincare steps. Skilled manual lifting and sculpting massage techniques are used alongside facial tension-release methods, enzyme exfoliation and hydrating serums to refine surface texture and create an immediate lifted appearance without internal (buccal) work.
This approach relies on targeted manual manipulation and topical actives rather than tools or intra-oral techniques. Enzyme exfoliation helps gently remove dead surface cells so serums penetrate more effectively, while finishing skincare is tailored to your skin’s needs to enhance visible tone and radiance after the session.
What happens during treatment
This $220 · 75 minutes session begins with professional cleansing and a consultation to confirm goals and sensitivities. The esthetician performs enzyme exfoliation followed by a focused manual lifting and sculpting massage and facial tension-release techniques. Hydrating, nutrient-rich serums are applied and a customized finishing skincare protocol completes the treatment.
Because this service excludes buccal techniques, all sculpting is external. That choice shortens invasiveness while still delivering lift, contouring and relaxation through precise hand techniques. The hands-on nature means results are immediately visible for many clients, and the practitioner adjusts pressure and sequence to match comfort and desired outcome.
Aftercare and recommended maintenance
Clients often notice immediate visible effects — a refreshed, more lifted appearance and softer-looking fine lines — but how long results last depends on individual skin and lifestyle. Discuss follow-up timing with your esthetician so finishing products and at-home care match seasonal needs, especially around Mequon’s dry winters or humid summers where hydration and barrier care matter.
If you commute via I-43 or Port Washington Road, schedule early-morning or evening appointments to suit your day. For special events (weddings or holidays in May, June, November, December) plan ahead; those months are busiest and appointments fill earlier in the local calendar.
