Hydrafacial vs. Glo2Facial + RF

Which is right for you?
If you want a quick refresh, a hydrating facial may be all you need. If you also want to support firmness and soften fine lines over time, Glo2Facial + RF was built for that.
Glo2Facial + RF is $350 per treatment, or included every month with The Well membership.
Step 1 | RF Pro Radiofrequency
This is what sets Glo2Facial + RF apart from a standard hydrating facial. RF Pro delivers gentle, controlled warmth to the dermis, the layer where collagen and elastin live. It is FDA-cleared for improving mild-to-moderate facial wrinkles, and few practices in West Michigan offer it. Over a series of treatments, skin can look smoother, firmer and more lifted.
Step II | Oxfoliation
Next, a patented OxyPod meets a gel primer on your skin and creates a gentle, bubbling reaction. It exfoliates while encouraging your skin to oxygenate itself from within, not just on the surface. Each OxyPod is chosen for your skin, whether you want to hydrate, brighten, firm or smooth. Your skin is left clean, refreshed and ready to absorb what comes next.
Step III | LUX ( Lite Ultrasound eXperience)
Using low-frequency ultrasound waves to help penetrate ingredients deeper into the skin to help maximize product absorption and enhances skin hydration, leaving your skin feeling plump and refresh.
Step IV | Detox Massage
The facial finishes off with the Neo-Massage to increase circulation and support lymphatic drainage. It's especially beneficial for clients dealing with puffiness, dullness, or skin that feels congested by helping stimulate the skin's natural detox process by flushing out toxins and reducing fluid retention.
