At Pua Manu Medspa, we know that beauty is within, but dealing with certain skin conditions can be bothersome to both men and women. Whether you struggle with acne or the unwanted signs of aging, our team can assist with facials. Facials are a wonderful way for patients to quickly see clear, beautiful skin and, in the long run, address certain skin concerns and issues that can take away from one’s natural beauty. Below are some frequently asked questions about the types of facial services available at our practice serving those in and around Kapolei, Hawaii.
What are the types of facials I can choose from?
The below facial services are available to those who visit Pua Manu Medspa:
- 4-1 Lift Facial
- Back facials
- Dermaplaning
- Glycolic peel
- Hydrafacial
- Hydroimpact
- Lymphatic facials

What concerns can facials address?
Facials are designed to address numerous concerns with one or more treatments. Many patients with issues such as acne, sun damage, wrinkles and fine lines, dry or oily skin, enlarged pores, and uneven tone and texture can benefit from routine facial services. Patients unsure of what facial will best address their specific concerns can consult with one of our skincare specialists at Pua Manu Medspa to develop an individualized treatment plan that meets their needs and budget.
What is the difference between chemical peels and dermaplaning?
Chemical peels involve applying a solution to the skin to exfoliate and remove dead cells on the surface. This improves the skin texture and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. On the other hand, dermaplaning involves using a medical-grade blade that gently scrapes off dead skin cells and vellus hair (peach fuzz) from the face. This process also promotes cell turnover, leaving the skin looking smoother and brighter. Both treatments effectively improve skin texture and appearance, but they work differently.

How often should I get a facial?
The frequency of necessary facials depends greatly on an individual’s needs and concerns. For maintenance purposes, it is highly recommended that patients get a facial every four to six weeks.
