Medical Facials | Carolina Face & Body

At Carolina Face & Body in Chapin, we believe true skin rejuvenation is more than surface-level. Our medical facials are crafted by board-certified experts and delivered in a clinical setting, blending the precision of medical science with the artistry of aesthetics. Each treatment is tailored using medical-grade products and protocols to target your unique concerns—whether you're looking to renew dull, stressed skin, address acne or hyperpigmentation, or simply maintain a natural, healthy glow.

Unlike retail spa facials, our process begins with a thorough skin assessment by our experienced esthetician under the guidance of Dr. Kayla Humenansky, the Midlands' only private practice female plastic surgeon. We address underlying causes of skin imbalances and use advanced modalities such as dermaplaning, microneedling, and clinical chemical peels to deliver long-lasting, natural-looking improvements. Our philosophy is rooted in restoration, not makeover—empowering you to feel confident in your own skin at every stage of life.

Medical facials at Carolina Face & Body are performed in a safe, judgment-free environment where clinical expertise meets true compassion. Every facial is customized to your skin type, concerns, and goals, leveraging medical-grade serums, exfoliants, and technology not available in traditional spas. Under the direction of Dr. Humenansky and supported by our all-female clinical team, you receive care that prioritizes both your safety and your results.

This clinical approach means we can treat a wide spectrum of skin concerns, from stubborn acne and sun damage to post-surgical healing and age-related changes. Working in tandem with other non-surgical services such as microneedling and chemical peels, our facials form the foundation of effective, ongoing skin health. Whether you're preparing for a special event, recovering from a procedure, or simply investing in your long-term skin confidence, our facials are designed for visible improvements and a truly restorative experience.

Every medical facial at Carolina Face & Body is tailored to your needs, combining advanced techniques with medical-grade skincare for optimal results. Our offerings include deep cleansing, enzymatic exfoliation, targeted extractions, and infusion of clinically proven actives to address concerns like acne, hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and loss of radiance. Techniques such as dermaplaning remove vellus hair and dead skin, enhancing product absorption and leaving skin instantly smoother.

For those seeking more intensive renewal, our medical facials can be paired with microneedling or light chemical peels to stimulate collagen and accelerate skin recovery. Our esthetician, Bria, is known for her gentle touch and results-driven approach, ensuring every visit is both relaxing and transformative. All treatments are overseen by Dr. Humenansky, ensuring the highest safety standards, especially for patients with sensitive or post-procedure skin. Whether you're new to facials or maintaining surgical results, our treatments adapt to every skin journey.
