Custom Medical Facials at Schlessinger Eye and Face

Daily environmental stress, sun exposure, and natural cellular buildup can leave your skin feeling dull, congested, and dry. While over-the-counter spa facials offer temporary surface relaxation, medical-grade facial treatments penetrate deeper to purify pores, smooth texture, and nourish your skin with high-potency antioxidants and nutrients.

At Schlessinger Eye and Face in Woodbury, NY, our medspa treatments are overseen by board-certified physician Dr. David A. Schlessinger. Combining physician leadership with skilled aesthetician care, our customized facials are tailored to your skin type, helping you achieve a clear, glowing complexion with zero downtime.

What is a Medical Facial?

Unlike traditional day-spa facials that rely on superficial creams and basic massage, a medical facial utilizes pharmaceutical-grade ingredients and advanced delivery devices to address deep skin concerns. Performed in a tranquil medical office setting, medical facials combine deep pore cleansing, targeted physical or chemical exfoliation, therapeutic extractions, and custom nutrient infusion.

At Schlessinger Eye and Face, our aestheticians collaborate directly with Dr. Schlessinger to design custom treatment blends. Whether incorporating hydradermabrasion, customized chemical peels, or targeted LED light therapy, every session is formulated to strengthen your skin barrier, correct discoloration, and restore a youthful luster.

Dermaplaning Facial

A Dermaplane Facial is a physical exfoliation method that involves using a sharp blade to gently scrape away the top layer of dead skin cells revealing a brighter, smoother complexion. This is a favorite treatment in the entertainment industry as it removes all dead skin cells and facial hair, leaving the surface smooth and camera-ready! The treatment includes professional dermaplaning, light facial massage, and is concluded by our exclusive mask and potent professional-grade serums.

Dermaplaning Only

Dermaplaning can be performed as a stand-alone treatment for exfoliation of dead skin cells and peach fuzz, leaving the surface of the skin soft and smooth. It allows for a beautiful application of makeup afterwards, which is why celebrities obsess over this treatment. After dermaplaning we apply a hydrating serum, moisturizing lotion, and sunscreen.

All staff, from check-in to departure, were both friendly and professional.”
