Cosmetology Services: Facials, Peels, Mesotherapy — How to Order
Start with the skin concern, not the procedure
Acne, enlarged pores, pigmentation, wrinkles, dryness, dull tone — each concern has its own approaches. An ultrasound or combined facial helps with enlarged pores and blackheads, peels work on pigmentation and scars, mesotherapy and biorevitalisation on hydration and tone. If you describe the concern to a cosmetologist, they will suggest the best procedures instead of selling you what you saw in an advert.
When you need a doctor
Some procedures, such as botulinum therapy, fillers and plasma lifting, are injectable and need medical training. For acne, dermatitis, moles or irritation, it is better to consult a dermatologist first. Ask about contraindications, pregnancy and medicines you take, and do not be shy about asking for the specialist's documents. It is worth finding out beforehand whether the clinic or studio has the registration required for medical practice, if the procedure calls for it, and which disinfection methods and single-use materials they use.
After a facial or a peel, the skin is sensitive to the sun for several days, which matters in strong sun, so do not plan the procedure just before a holiday or an important event. Ask what SPF care and products you need at home, so you do not end up with pigmentation instead of a result.
What affects the price
- type of procedure: facial, peel, mesotherapy, injections;
- the product and brand, and the amount: in millilitres or units;
- area: face, forehead, neck, neckline, under the eyes;
- number of procedures and course discount;
- the specialist's qualifications and the type of place.
How to compare offers
Check the scope: a “facial” may include care, a mask and a massage, or just cleansing. For products, ask for the brand and quantity, otherwise the prices mean nothing. Ask how many procedures are in a course, how often they are repeated and what preparation and aftercare are needed. Look at reviews and portfolios, not only at the price.
On BlaBlaPrice you do not phone salons: you write a request once, and cosmetologists reply in the chat with the price, dates and what the procedure includes. They see where they stand among the others and compete on terms. The platform shows the best-value offer first. Your phone number stays hidden, and only the specialist you choose gets your contacts.
