XO Facial

At Dr. Halaas's practice, our team can design a custom action plan and apply the newest treatments that help maintain firm skin, like the highly effective XO facials.

The face is the part of the body that receives the most exposure to dust, direct sunlight, and other factors that impact our skin’s health. Wearing protective clothing and sunscreen is crucial, but visiting an aesthetician is also a great way to maintain a youthful appearance and avoid premature signs of aging.

XO Facial Overview

The XO facial is a new procedure that combines the tested benefits of collagen induction therapy with an exciting new breakthrough known as exosomes. In simple terms, exosomes are small vesicles that send messages to cells. These messengers promote the healthy growth of new cells and also have an anti-inflammatory effect, allowing skin health to improve visibly.

XO facials are performed by Raechel Lowe, a Licensed Aesthetician, key opinion leader, and cosmetic researcher in New York. As a leading cosmetic expert, Raechel has extensive training in laser treatments, hydradermabrasion, acne solutions, and skincare therapies like XO facials. Patients in NYC can experience great benefits from the XO facial treatment available at Dr. Halaas’ clinic. These include:

Firmer, younger-looking skin
Improved texture
A healthier skin tone
Reduces visible signs of aging
Prevents breakouts and other types of spots
Little to no downtime

Results and Recovery Expectations

It is normal for patients to expect a long recovery period after having treatments that dramatically improve the appearance of the face. However, XO facials are performed using a technique called microneedling, which produces great results while being minimally invasive. After the procedure, a small percentage of patients require minimal downtime and most go back to their daily activities right away.

Ideal Candidates for XO Facial

As with other treatments for the face, there is no minimum age for an XO facial in NYC. This treatment is ideal for men or women of all ages who want to achieve healthier facial skin. If you are interested in learning more about this treatment, book a consultation today.

Risks and Potential Side-Effects of XO Facials

XO facials are performed using microneedling, which is regarded as safe and effective. There are some side-effects you should keep in mind, including:

Redness
Mild swelling and discomfort
Minimal risk of infection
