Teenagers’ skin is challenging, and they are rarely happy about how their skin looks and feels. Thankfully, Serenity Spa’s teen facial treatments can make a world of difference.
Our teen facial treatments are geared toward teen skin care health. We have created facial services with products that work specifically on adolescent skin to boost the skin’s health and texture. Part of our facial treatment mission is to educate teens about proper skincare habits that will benefit them throughout their lives.
During adolescence, hormonal changes trigger the sebaceous glands, which produce more oil on the face. This natural process, while essential for skin development, causes acne breakouts and, consequently, acne scars.
Also, testosterone levels rise in both boys and girls and stimulate oil glands. That’s what causes enlarged pores, excess shine, and many forms of acne. In addition, teenage skin cells tend to be more active, with faster turnover rates than adult skin. That’s both challenging but also an opportunity for proper acne treatment skincare.
Teen skin also experiences rapid changes in texture and appearance, sometimes changing from week to week. The skin’s pH balance fluctuates during this time, making it more susceptible to bacterial growth and inflammation.
All in all, teen skin requires specialized treatment until it restores its natural balance, typically after adolescence. Here at Serenity Spa, our teen facial treatments work with rather than against the skin’s natural processes.
What do teenagers complain the most about their skin? Appearance of acne, blackheads, and open pores are the most common complaints and skin concerns.
Excess oil production often clogs pores and causes acne, from small blackheads to more inflammatory lesions. Many teens also struggle with uneven skin texture and tone, as rapid cell turnover causes irregular shedding of dead skin cells.
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, which appears as dark spots after acne heals, is another common concern that requires gentle yet effective treatment.
Even environmental factors play a role in teen skin health. Because teenage skin is so sensitive, exposure to pollution and changing weather conditions impact young skin.
Add the effects of stress, lack of sleep, and dietary changes to the mix, and it’s easy to understand why teenage skin requires specialized treatment that focuses on supporting the skin during these challenging times.

Dermaplaning works particularly well for people looking for a more refined complexion without harsh chemicals or downtime. If you are getting ready for a special event, this treatment works wonders as it creates the perfect foundation for makeup application.
It is also ideal for people with dry or rough skin texture or those concerned about facial hair. Anyone can benefit from dermaplaning as it’s a gentle yet effective exfoliating technique. The treatment is safe for most skin types, including sensitive skin and pregnant women who need to avoid chemical treatments.
However, those with active acne breakouts, inflamed skin, or severe rosacea should consider alternative treatments until their skin calms.
Our teen facial begins with a thorough skin analysis, followed by the treatment.
Treating teen acne facial skin
The treatment itself is adjusted to each teenager’s skin type and concerns. We focus on deep cleansing and purification while respecting the skin’s natural barrier. Overly aggressive treatments can worsen teen skin concerns rather than improve them. We are approachable and gentle, and our approach won’t overwhelm sensitive teenage skin.
Gentle cleansing
Each teen facial begins with a gentle cleansing process with products formulated for young skin. This step removes surface impurities, excess oil, and cellular debris without stripping the skin of its necessary natural oils. We then perform a detailed skin analysis under specialized lighting to spot specific skin concerns.
Mild exfoliating
We then apply a gentle exfoliant appropriate for teen skin to remove dead skin cells and boost healthy cell turnover. We calibrate this step to avoid over-exfoliation, which can trigger increased oil production. We then apply a purifying mask to balance excess oil or mild inflammation. We may use steam to help soften and prepare the skin for extractions.
Careful extractions
If necessary, we perform a gentle chemical peel to clear clogged pores, always using the right techniques to minimize trauma to the skin. We then follow with a calming mask that helps balance the skin and reduce any redness or irritation.
Moisturizing
The treatment concludes with appropriate skin hydration and sun protection, specifically for teen skin types.
The immediate results of dermaplaning are nothing short of remarkable. Clients experience instantly smoother, brighter skin with a notable reduction in the appearance of fine lines and uneven texture. Makeup applies more seamlessly, and skincare products penetrate more effectively: you experience their benefit to their maximum.
Dermaplaning boosts cellular turnover and leads to a healthier, more vibrant complexion over time. Unlike other hair removal methods, dermaplaning doesn’t cause stubble or darker regrowth, as it only removes the fine vellus hair that naturally returns as soft as it was before the treatment.
Besides the actual treatment, we discuss not only current skin concerns but also lifestyle factors that might affect skin health. That’s because we feel that we should help teenagers understand the connection between their daily habits and skin condition. We take the time to explain the importance of consistent skincare routines and proper use of the right skincare products so they can regain both their confidence and their skin health. Thus, we focus on education about proper skincare routines and habits throughout the treatment.
Consistent cleansing
We explain the importance of consistent cleansing without overwashing, the proper use of moisturizer, even for oily skin, and the role of sun protection to protect against long-term skin damage. Teens learn about the impact of diet, sleep, and stress on their skin health and the importance of not picking or squeezing blemishes.
Personalized recommendations
We also talk about common myths about teenage skincare and provide practical solutions for an effective daily routine.
Each teen facial concludes with personalized recommendations for home care. We understand that teens need simple, effective routines they can realistically maintain. Our suggestions focus on essential steps and products that work together for the best skin health without feeling overwhelming. We consider factors such as after-school activities, sports participation, and daily schedules because that’s how teens live their lives.
Consistency over complexity
We emphasize the importance of consistency over complexity. A few well-chosen products used regularly are more effective than many products used sporadically. We explain what non-comedogenic products are and how they won’t clog pores. We focus on products that target the skin’s natural balance.
Healthy skincare habits
We work to empower teens with the knowledge and confidence to care for their skin. Once they know the right steps and have the right tools, they are ready to care for their facial skin.

We recommend professional skincare treatments when teens begin experiencing skin changes, usually around age 12-14. This depends on each individual’s skin maturity and concerns.
For most teens, we recommend treatments every 4-6 weeks, though this can depend on individual skin conditions and concerns. During periods of increased breakouts or specific skin challenges, facial treatments can be more frequent.
For best results, we recommend scheduling dermaplaning treatments every 3-4 weeks. This frequency allows for proper hair regrowth and skin cell turnover and still maintains the smooth, radiant results you love. We can create a customized treatment schedule based on your needs and goals.
All products used in our teen facials are specifically chosen for young, sensitive skin. We use non-comedogenic, gentle formulations that work on teen skin without irritation.
