Facials in Brooklyn
What is a Facial?
Our skin care was born from the desire to support our clients through the effects of body hair removal; spotlighting hyperpigmentation, keloidal scarring, in-grown hairs, kp, hs, pilonidal cysts, inner thigh friction, fungal infections and the balancing of genital environments.
These days our facials are for face and full body and can happen during hair removal or as a stand alone service. We focus on post-op wound healing and scar managements, aging support, the varied needs of more melanated clients, those on hormone therapies or experiencing hormonal changes, people with skin immunity issues and those who need crease care.
Our products range from small batch whole plant medicine to naturally sourced lab technology.
We use a mixture of manual manipulation techniques like lymphatic drainage, sculpting and buccal massage as well as no down time, non-ablative laser treatments.
We offer 7 base facials, all of which can be customized with add-on options through our booking page.
How It Works
Our body is a symphony of rhythms whether it's the cycles of hair growth or the cycles of skin cell turn over. We respect these rhythms and just like we wouldn't give a plant all the water it needs for the year at once, we wouldn't want to get one facial a year to address all the seasonal changes and issues we've gone through. We recommend getting a facial every 4-6 weeks and working with us on an effective home care routine. LED can be use daily to heal wounds. Manual manipulation can be performed daily as well. We care about your barrier so acids are kept to a minimum and recovery is important. We can perform extraction on request but we believe a good home care routine should be preventing congestion.
Uncle Nat loves this totally customizable facial for acneic issues resulting from testosterone hormone therapies, dryness from menopausal/estrogen reduction, dullness from smoking and environmental damage, even for the most sensitive skin...don't over think it, Uncle Nat will evaluate your skin and recommend the facial that's best for you (botanical/enzyme/oxygen)
Have you thought about preventative botox? This is better. It's like pilates for your face. A transformative holistic treatment with zero downtime, that gives a prolonged lifting effect to your skull (yeah, it droops) face, neck, and décolleté. A series of 6-8 sessions recommended for TMJ/jaw fatigue and fine line smoothing. Can be performed daily.

Red Carpet Laser Facial
All while cooking under an LED light therapy blanket (one of only two in the 5 boroughs!). It's like a non ablative, totally holistic version of that med spa scene in Death Becomes Her. I'll be Isabella Rossellini, and you'll be Meryl Streep. But less bitchy.
