Charleston is known for beautiful light, coastal living, and a style that feels effortlessly polished. Your skin deserves that same level of care.
At Scarlett Hawkins MedSpa, facials are designed to do more than provide a moment of relaxation. Each treatment combines thoughtful personalization, advanced skincare, and an elevated boutique experience to help your complexion look smoother, brighter, and beautifully refreshed.
Whether you are managing acne, recovering from environmental stress, preparing for a special event, or simply ready to make consistent skincare part of your wellness routine, the right facial can help you reveal your most radiant skin.
WHAT MAKES A FACIAL THE “BEST” FOR YOU?
The best facial is not necessarily the most intensive treatment. It is the one that aligns with your skin’s current needs, your long-term goals, and your comfort level.
Your skin may need deep cleansing one month and extra hydration the next. Seasonal changes, stress, travel, sun exposure, hormones, and your home-care routine can all influence how your complexion responds.
That is why customized care matters.
At Scarlett Hawkins MedSpa, your treatment may be adapted to address:
- Dehydration and dullness
- Congested pores and excess oil
- Acne and post-breakout concerns
- Uneven tone and texture
- Early signs of aging
- Fine lines and loss of radiance
- Skin sensitivity or temporary irritation
With the right approach, a facial helps support the skin you already have. The goal is not to change your identity. It is to help you feel confident, comfortable, and refreshed in your own skin.

The Scarlett Hawkins Signature Facial
Our most comprehensive facial experience.
The Scarlett Hawkins Signature Facial is a 60-minute treatment created for clients seeking a more complete skin rejuvenation experience.
This customized facial includes professional extractions, deep exfoliation, extended massage, and tailored masks. Each step is selected to support your skin’s needs while creating a calm, nurturing experience from beginning to end.
Deep exfoliation helps lift away dull surface cells, revealing smoother-looking skin underneath. Professional extractions can help address congestion, while customized masks provide targeted support for hydration, calming, or refinement. The extended massage adds a luxurious finishing touch and encourages you to slow down, breathe, and enjoy the moment.
The result is skin that may look:
- Smoother
- Brighter
- More hydrated
- More refreshed
- Soft and beautifully polished
If you want a facial that feels both restorative and results-oriented, the Signature Facial is an elevated place to begin.
CUSTOMIZED ACNE FACIALS FOR CLEARER-LOOKING SKIN
Breakouts are common, but that does not mean you have to navigate them alone.
At Scarlett Hawkins MedSpa, customized acne facials are designed to support skin affected by occasional breakouts, hormonal acne, congestion, and post-acne concerns. Treatments focus on cleansing the skin thoroughly while helping calm the appearance of inflammation and reduce the buildup that can contribute to clogged pores.
An acne facial may include:
- Deep cleansing
- Gentle exfoliation
- Professional extractions
- Medical-grade skincare products
- LED light therapy
- Chemical exfoliants, when appropriate
- Soothing or clarifying masks
The treatment is selected according to your skin’s condition and tolerance. A personalized approach is especially important for acne-prone skin because overly aggressive care can leave the complexion feeling uncomfortable or sensitized.
For clients seeking longer-term support, Scarlett Hawkins MedSpa may also recommend a customized acne protocol that combines in-office treatments with medical-grade at-home skincare. Consistency matters. With a thoughtful plan, your routine can feel more manageable and your skin can appear clearer, calmer, and more balanced over time.
If you are experiencing persistent or severe acne, a professional consultation can help determine whether additional medical evaluation or treatment may be appropriate.
HYDRAFACIAL: A GLOWING RESET FOR MANY SKIN TYPES
For clients who want cleansing, exfoliation, extractions, and hydration in one soothing treatment, HydraFacial is a popular choice.
HydraFacial uses patented Vortex-Fusion technology to cleanse and exfoliate the skin while helping remove impurities from the pores. The treatment also infuses nourishing serums containing ingredients such as antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid to support a hydrated, refreshed appearance.
Because it can be customized, HydraFacial may be a good option for a variety of concerns, including:
- Dull or tired-looking skin
- Dehydration
- Congested pores
- Uneven tone and texture
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Breakout-prone skin
- Loss of visible elasticity
Many clients appreciate HydraFacial because it is designed to be comfortable and involves minimal downtime. Mild redness can occur for some people, particularly after extractions, but many return to their usual activities the same day.
WHICH FACIAL IS RIGHT FOR YOUR SKIN TYPE?
Dry or dehydrated skin
Choose a facial that emphasizes hydration, nourishment, and barrier support. HydraFacial may help replenish moisture, while a customized Signature Facial can incorporate masks and products selected for your skin’s needs.
Oily or congested skin
Deep cleansing, gentle exfoliation, and professional extractions may help reduce the appearance of buildup in the pores. HydraFacial or a customized acne facial may be considered depending on your skin’s condition.
Acne-prone skin
A targeted acne facial can help address congestion and support a calmer-looking complexion. Your provider may also recommend a customized at-home routine for more consistent results.
Sensitive skin
Sensitive skin benefits from a careful, measured approach. Your treatment can be adapted to avoid unnecessary irritation and prioritize soothing, hydration, and comfort.
Mature or texture-focused skin
A comprehensive facial can help improve the appearance of dullness and uneven texture while supporting a smoother, more refreshed look. Your provider can also discuss whether another medical-grade treatment may complement your facial plan.
Normal or combination skin
Even balanced skin benefits from regular professional care. A customized facial can help maintain hydration, refine texture, and preserve that fresh, healthy-looking glow.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU GET A FACIAL?
The ideal schedule depends on your goals, skin type, and the treatment selected. Some clients enjoy a facial every four to six weeks as part of a consistent maintenance routine. Others prefer occasional appointments before a special event or during periods of increased stress, travel, or seasonal change.
Your provider can help you create a plan that feels realistic and supportive. Skincare should be effective, but it should also fit comfortably into your life.
Remember that results vary. A facial can help improve the appearance of the skin, but no treatment guarantees permanent results. Protecting your skin from the sun, using recommended home-care products, and following post-treatment instructions can help support your results.
