Everything You Need to Know Before You Book Your Facial Service

This section breaks down exactly what to expect from your customized facial experience at NEWWAY Aesthetics. From treatment benefits to who it’s best suited for, you’ll learn how each facial is designed to target your unique skin concerns using advanced techniques, medical-grade products, and personalized skin therapy. Consider this your guide to choosing the treatment that will give you the healthiest, clearest, most radiant skin possible.

MICRONEEDLING

MICRONEEDLING WITH THE SALIENT E-PEN

At NEWWAY Aesthetics

You’ve probably seen microneedling trending everywhere lately — glowing before-and-afters, poreless skin, acne scars fading, collagen skyrocketing. But what you may not know is that not all microneedling devices are created equal… and the real secret behind consistent, medical-grade results comes down to technique, education, and the device itself.

At NEWWAY Aesthetics, we use the Salient E-Pen, a powerful, clinically engineered microneedling system trusted by medical professionals for its precision and safety. As trends rise online, so does misinformation — which is why I want to break down exactly what you’re getting when you book microneedling with me.

Whether you’re a first-time client or someone searching for an advanced skin transformation, this guide will give you everything you need to feel confident, informed, and excited for your treatment.

Let’s get into it.

What Microneedling Actually Is

Microneedling is a collagen-induction therapy that uses tiny, controlled micro-channels to stimulate your skin’s natural healing cascade. These micro-injuries work to:

  • Boost collagen + elastin production
  • Smooth acne scarring and texture
  • Minimize pores
  • Brighten tone and fade pigmentation
  • Strengthen your overall skin barrier

The Salient E-Pen allows me to adjust depth, speed, and technique with medical precision, ensuring your treatment is fully customized to your skin concerns and tolerance.

Microneedling is one of the most effective long-term treatments for visible, lasting skin improvements — without lasers, downtime, or harsh resurfacing.

Why It Works: The Collagen Cascade

The entire magic of microneedling comes from your skin’s biology. When micro-channels are created in a controlled way, your body immediately signals a repair response. This increases:

  • Fibroblast activity (your collagen factories)
  • Cell turnover
  • Healthy blood flow and oxygenation
  • New, structurally stronger collagen fibers

This results in firmer, smoother, more resilient skin over the following weeks.

Because these channels stay open temporarily, we also use this window to infuse targeted serums and actives deeper into the skin for amplified results.

Erika’s Take: Why Microneedling Is One of My Top Treatments

People ask me all the time, “Is microneedling actually worth it?”

My honest answer? Yes — when it’s done safely, correctly, and with intention.

I’m extremely selective about what I offer at NEWWAY Aesthetics. With over 45 industry certifications, a background as a Medical Aesthetician, Skin Therapist, Acne Specialist, and Certified Health & Life Coach, I don’t bring anything into my clinic unless the science supports it and I see real-world results in my clients.

Microneedling is one of the few treatments that checks every box:

✔ Long-term results

✔ Minimal downtime

✔ Safe for most skin types

✔ Incredible for acne scarring

✔ Amazing for overall skin health

Every session is completely personalized — depth, serums, techniques, and goals are all adjusted based on what your skin needs that exact day.

My goal is always to get you long-lasting results, not temporary trends.

Thinking About Booking? Here’s What to Expect

I want you to feel fully prepared and confident before your appointment.

IT FEELS LIKE A LITTLE “BUZZY” SENSATION

Most clients describe microneedling as a light vibration or prickly sensation. Totally tolerable, and numbing cream is used for your comfort.

MILD REDNESS IS NORMAL

You’ll leave a bit pink — similar to a sunburn — for 12–36 hours. Some dryness or light flaking can happen in the following days.

THE RESULTS BUILD WITH TIME

You may notice a glow after your first session, but true collagen remodeling happens over a series of treatments. Consistency = transformation.

YOUR HOMECARE MATTERS

What you do at home determines how well you maintain your results. I’ll provide a simple, customized routine to support healing and maximize outcomes.

How to Get the Best Results

Before your appointment:

Hydrate Your Skin & Body

Healthy, hydrated skin responds best.

Pause Retinols + Exfoliants 3–5 Days Prior

Keeping the skin calm ensures optimal healing.

Commit to a Series

For acne scars, texture, or deeper concerns, 3–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart deliver the best results.

Follow Post-Care Instructions

No makeup, sweating, saunas, or actives for 48 hours. Gentle skincare only. I’ll give you a full aftercare sheet.

Ready for Stronger, Smoother, Healthier Skin?

If you’ve been considering microneedling, now is the perfect time. Whether you’re a returning client or brand new to NEWWAY Aesthetics, you can request microneedling anytime you book — it’s a staple treatment here for a reason.

I can’t wait to help you experience the results firsthand.

HYDROFACIAL

THE HYDROFACIAL (ELEMENT MACHINE BY DERMAJEM)

At NEWWAY Aesthetics

If you’ve ever wondered how some people get that smooth, fresh, glassy-looking skin with zero downtime… you’re probably thinking of a HydroFacial. It’s one of the most talked-about treatments in the skincare world — and for good reason. But not all HydroFacials are created equal.

At NEWWAY Aesthetics, we use the Element HydroFacial System by DermaJem, a medical-grade, multi-step device that deeply cleanses, extracts, resurfaces, and infuses customized serums into your skin. It’s gentle, effective, and completely tailored to your skin’s needs.

Whether your goals are hydration, acne support, brightening, or just a deep reset for tired skin, this treatment delivers immediate results and long-term benefits. Let’s break down exactly what makes it special.

What the HydroFacial Actually Does

The HydroFacial is a complete, non-invasive skin treatment designed to:

  • Deeply cleanse and soften congestion
  • Clear out pores using painless vortex extraction
  • Exfoliate dead skin cells without irritation
  • Infuse targeted ingredients for hydration, clarity, and brightness
  • Strengthen your skin barrier over time

It’s the perfect treatment for anyone needing visible improvement without peeling, downtime, or sensitivity.

The Element machine gives me full control over suction levels, exfoliation strength, handpiece flow, and serum infusion — allowing your facial to be truly customized to your skin’s condition that day.

Why It Works: The Power of Vortex Technology

The treatment works through a combination of:

Vacuum-Assisted Extractions

These remove blackheads, congestion, and buildup without squeezing or trauma to the skin.

Aqua-Exfoliation

A liquid-based exfoliation system gently resurfaces the skin while hydrating it at the same time — a major advantage over dry exfoliants.

Customized Serums Infused Into the Skin

Depending on your needs, we may use ingredients to brighten, calm, hydrate, or clarify the skin.

The result? Skin that looks instantly smoother, plumper, and clearer.

The HydroFacial is safe for most skin types — including sensitive, acne-prone, and dehydrated skin — making it one of the most versatile treatments in the clinic.

Erika’s Take: Why I Love the HydroFacial for All Skin Types

Clients ask me all the time, “Is the HydroFacial really worth it?”

My honest answer: Yes — especially when your skin needs a reset without downtime.

As a Medical Aesthetician, Skin Therapist, Acne Specialist, and Certified Health & Life Coach with over 45 certifications, I choose treatments that deliver results and protect the skin barrier. The HydroFacial checks every box.

It’s:

✔ Gentle but effective

✔ Ideal before events

✔ Perfect for acne and congestion

✔ Amazing for dull, dehydrated, or tired-looking skin

✔ Safe to do regularly for maintenance

Every HydroFacial at NEWWAY Aesthetics is customized from start to finish — extraction levels, serums used, mask application, LED add-ons, and finishing products are all chosen to match your skin’s needs.

I don’t believe in cookie-cutter treatments. Your skin tells me what it needs; I just listen.

Thinking About Booking? Here’s What to Expect

Here’s your honest breakdown of what the HydroFacial experience looks like:

IMMEDIATE RESULTS

You’ll leave glowing, hydrated, and incredibly smooth — no redness, no peeling, no downtime.

A “CLEAN” FEEL YOU CAN’t GET AT HOME

Your pores feel lighter, your skin feels fresh, and makeup applies flawlessly afterward.

NO SENSITIVITY

Because of the gentle approach, even sensitive or compromised skin can tolerate it.

A BUILDABLE TREATMENT

You can add dermaplaning, boosters, masks, or LED therapy for enhanced results.

How to Get the Best Results

Come Hydrated

Hydrated skin responds better.

Avoid Retinol & Strong Acids 2–3 Days Before

We want your skin calm and stable for treatment.

Book Every 4 Weeks for Skin Health Maintenance

Consistent HydroFacials strengthen your barrier and keep your skin clear long-term.

Use the Homecare I Recommend

It helps maintain your glow and prevent congestion from returning.

Ready for Deeply Clean, Hydrated, Healthy-Looking Skin?

Whether you’re prepping for an event, struggling with breakouts, or just want a facial that actually makes a difference, the HydroFacial at NEWWAY Aesthetics is one of the best places to start.

I can’t wait to show you why this has become a client favourite.

CHEMICAL PEELS

CHEMICAL PEELS

At NEWWAY Aesthetics

Chemical peels have been around for decades — and for good reason. When used correctly and customized to your skin’s needs, they can dramatically improve brightness, texture, acne, pigmentation, and overall skin health. But with so many types of peels out there, it’s easy to get confused about which one is right for you.

At NEWWAY Aesthetics, I offer a curated range of GlyMed chemical peels, carefully chosen for their safety, results, and versatility. Every peel is applied intentionally, with a deep focus on barrier health and long-term skin improvement — not unnecessary irritation.

Whether you’re dealing with breakouts, dullness, fine lines, or pigment, this guide will help you understand exactly what each peel does and what to expect.

Let’s break it down.

What Chemical Peels Actually Do

A chemical peel uses specific acids, enzymes, or vitamin derivatives to gently dissolve away dead skin cells, stimulate cellular turnover, and reset the skin. Depending on the peel we choose, you may experience:

  • Brighter, more even skin tone
  • Smoother, softer texture
  • Improved acne and congestion
  • Reduced pigmentation
  • Speeding up the healing of scarring and post-inflammatory marks
  • A stronger, more resilient barrier

Not all peels cause visible peeling — and not all peeling means a deeper treatment. What matters most is choosing the right peel for your skin at the right time.

The Peels I Offer at NEWWAY Aesthetics

Here’s a breakdown of each one, from the most gentle to the more corrective options:

OXYGEN PEEL — The Brightening, Superficial Reset

This peel oxygenates and detoxifies the skin, leaving it fresh, decongested, and glowing.

It’s perfect for:

  • Dull or tired skin
  • Breakout-prone or congested skin
  • Clients who want a gentle, no-downtime refresh

There is no peeling with this peel — just a beautifully bright, clean finish.

PEPTIDE PEEL — The Anti-Aging, Superficial Glow-Up

Packed with peptides and gentle resurfacing agents, this peel softens fine lines and stimulates collagen without irritation.

Best for:

  • Dry, mature, or sensitive skin
  • First-time peel clients
  • Anyone wanting a firmer, more lifted look

Also a no-peel, glow-based treatment.

LACTIC ACID PEEL — Hydrating + Exfoliating

A gentle AHA that brightens, hydrates, and smooths texture.

Great for:

  • Pigmentation
  • Dullness
  • Dehydrated skin
  • Sensitive skin needing a light exfoliation

Superficial peel — very little to no visible flaking.

AHA PEEL — Brightening + Texture Refinement

A step up from lactic, this peel uses stronger alpha hydroxy acids to target tone, uneven texture, and congestion.

Ideal for:

  • Mild scarring
  • Stubborn texture
  • Uneven tone
  • Early aging signs

Still considered superficial, with mild flaking possible.

MEDIUM-DEPTH PEELS

These peels go deeper into the epidermis and may cause visible peeling. They are powerful, corrective options for clients committed to the process.

JESSNER PEEL — A Pigment + Acne Powerhouse

This peel blends salicylic, lactic, and resorcinol to break down pigment, target active acne, and lift stubborn texture.

Best for:

  • Pigmentation
  • Acne marks
  • Moderate acne
  • Thick or resilient skin

Expect: visible peeling over the next few days.

TCA PEEL — The Ultimate Corrective Peel

TCA is one of the most effective medium-depth peels for dramatic texture and pigment improvement.

Works well for:

  • Acne scarring
  • Deeper pigmentation
  • Sun damage
  • Advanced texture issues

Expect: multiple days of true peeling.

VITAMIN A PEEL — The Retinoid Resurfacer

A retinoid-based peel that speeds up cell turnover and provides significant brightening and textural improvements.

Best for:

  • Acne-prone skin
  • Pigmentation
  • Dullness
  • Thick, damaged, or congested skin

Expect: peeling, often starting on day 2–3.

Erika’s Take: Why I Love Customizing Peels

As a Medical Aesthetician, Skin Therapist, Acne Specialist, Health & Life Coach, and holder of 45+ certifications, I’ve learned that chemical peels are not one-size-fits-all.

What makes them effective isn’t the “strength” — it’s the strategy.

When you come in for a peel, I assess:

✔ your current barrier health

✔ your recent products

✔ your acne activity

✔ your pigmentation patterns

✔ your goals

✔ your history with exfoliants

No two clients receive the same peel, because no two skins are the same. My goal is to choose the right peel for your current skin state — so you get results, not irritation.

Thinking About Booking? Here’s What to Expect

YOU MAY OR MAY NOT PEEL

Visible peeling isn’t the goal — renewal is.

MILD REDNESS IS NORMAL

Superficial peels usually cause little to no downtime.

MEDIUM-DEPTH PEELS REQUIRE COMMITMENT

Expect a few days of dryness or flaking.

YOU MUST FOLLOW AFTERCARE

Avoid actives, sweating, saunas, and makeup for 48 hours. Hydrate heavily.

RESULTS BUILD OVER TIME

Regular peels can transform your skin long-term.

How to Prepare for Your Appointment

  • Avoid retinol, acids, or exfoliants 5 days before.
  • Stay hydrated.
  • Come with clean skin if possible.
  • Be prepared for a simple, restorative homecare routine afterward.

Ready for Clearer, Brighter, Smoother Skin?

Whether you need a gentle refresh or a corrective transformation, there’s a chemical peel tailored perfectly for your skin at NEWWAY Aesthetics.

I’m here to guide you toward the safest, most effective option for long-term skin success.

DERMAPLANING

DERMAPLANING

At NEWWAY Aesthetics

If your skin feels textured, looks a little dull, or your makeup just isn’t sitting the way it used to — dermaplaning might be exactly what you’re looking for. It’s one of those treatments that feels simple, but when performed by a trained professional, the glow it gives is unmatched.

At NEWWAY Aesthetics, dermaplaning is more than a quick exfoliation. It’s a precise, technique-driven treatment that removes built-up dead skin and peach fuzz to reveal smoother, brighter, softer skin instantly. It’s safe, effective, and one of my most-loved services for clients wanting immediate results with zero downtime.

Let’s break it down so you feel confident before booking.

What Dermaplaning Actually Does

Dermaplaning gently exfoliates the very top layer of the skin using a professional surgical blade held at a precise angle. This process:

  • Removes dead skin build-up
  • Sweeps away vellus hair (peach fuzz)
  • Improves skin texture instantly
  • Allows skincare products to penetrate deeper
  • Helps makeup apply smoother
  • Gives the skin a brighter, fresher appearance

Even though it’s gentle, it creates a huge difference in how your skin looks and feels.

And no — your hair will not grow back darker or thicker. That’s a myth.

Why It Works

Think of dermaplaning as clearing away everything standing between your skin and its glow.

Dead skin buildup can make the complexion look dull, uneven, and even block pores. Peach fuzz can trap oil, makeup, and environmental debris. Once all that is removed, your skin finally has the chance to breathe, absorb, and shine.

Your products work better. Your serums sink deeper. Your skin tone looks more even. And because the surface is completely smoothed, makeup glides on like silk.

Erika’s Take: Why Dermaplaning Is a Staple Treatment

I’ve performed thousands of dermaplaning treatments as a Medical Aesthetician, Skin Therapist, Acne Specialist, and Certified Health & Life Coach with over 45 certifications — and it’s still one of my favourite foundational services.

Why? Because almost every skin type benefits from it.

It’s gentle.

It’s effective.

It’s instantly transforming.

And it pairs beautifully with almost any treatment — HydroFacials, peels, microneedling prep, LED therapy, or a customized facial.

At NEWWAY Aesthetics, dermaplaning isn’t rushed. I analyze your texture patterns, oil flow, sensitivity, and skin goals to tailor the technique and finishing products specifically to your skin.

Thinking About Booking? Here’s What to Expect

NO DOWNTIME

You can go back to your day immediately with fresh, glowing skin.

INSTANT SMOOTHNESS

Your face will feel baby-soft — you’ll notice the difference right away.

NO PEELING

Dermaplaning is non-chemical, so you won’t flake or peel afterward.

MAKEUP APPLIES BEAUTIFULLY

Especially in the days following the treatment.

A PERFECT “EVENT PREP” SERVICE

Do it 2–3 days before photos, weddings, or special occasions.

How to Get the Best Results

  • Avoid retinol or acids 2–3 days before.
  • Come with little to no makeup if possible.
  • Hydrate well before and after your appointment.
  • Use gentle skincare for 24 hours post-treatment.

For even better results, many clients pair dermaplaning with:

✨ A HydroFacial

✨ LED therapy

✨ A light enzyme or hydration mask

✨ A gentle peel

Ready for Smooth, Bright, Radiant Skin?

Dermaplaning is one of the easiest ways to instantly boost your glow and enhance every other part of your skincare routine.

If you’re ready for soft, smooth, glassy skin — I’d love to treat you.

CUSTOM FACIALS

CUSTOM FACIALS

At NEWWAY Aesthetics

When it comes to skin, there is no such thing as “one size fits all.” Your lifestyle, hormones, stress levels, environment, and genetics all shape the way your skin behaves — which is exactly why customized facials are one of the most powerful and underrated services in the treatment room.

At NEWWAY Aesthetics, every single facial is curated specifically for your skin on that day. No templates, no generic protocols, no cookie-cutter steps. I read your skin, assess what it needs, and tailor every element — exfoliation, extractions, massage, masks, LED, hydration, soothing treatments, and finishing products — to deliver real, meaningful results.

Custom facials are perfect for anyone wanting a results-driven, relaxing, skin-healing treatment without downtime.

Let’s dive into what makes them special.

What a Custom Facial Actually Does

Because each facial is built around your skin’s current state, it can help with:

  • Hydration + barrier repair
  • Acne and congestion
  • Inflammation or sensitivity
  • Texture refinement
  • Brightening + evening skin tone
  • Dryness or dehydration
  • Hormonal changes
  • Stress-related breakouts
  • Early aging signs

Think of it as personalized skincare, upgraded to a professional level.

Why Customization Matters

Your skin changes daily — so your facial should too.

Before we begin, I assess:

✔ your skin barrier health

✔ inflammation levels

✔ oil flow

✔ environmental or lifestyle stressors

✔ recent product use

✔ hydration and elasticity

✔ your short- and long-term goals

This ensures your treatment is not only effective, but safe and supportive of long-term skin health.

Erika’s Take: Why This Is a Core Treatment at NEWWAY

With my background as a Medical Aesthetician, Skin Therapist, Acne Specialist, Certified Health & Life Coach, and with over 45 industry certifications, custom facials are where my education and intuition meet.

I’m deeply invested in the health of your skin — beyond just the treatment room. Every facial is an opportunity to rebalance, strengthen, and understand what your skin is trying to communicate.

A custom facial at NEWWAY is not just self-care. It’s:

✔ A treatment for real skin changes

✔ A space to reset and de-stress (stress is a skin trigger!)

✔ A way to build long-term skin health

✔ An educational moment to help you know your skin better

You’ll leave glowing, calm, and confident — with a routine that makes sense for your goals.
