Hear From Our Clients
A reputation built on 350+ client experiences across our premier locations.
Your skin deals with a lot. Pollution, stress, hormones, sun damage, the wrong products. Over time, it shows—dullness, uneven tone, clogged pores, fine lines that weren’t there last year.
A professional facial isn’t just about relaxation. It’s about using medical-grade techniques and products that actually penetrate the skin, not just sit on the surface. You’re getting deep cleansing, exfoliation, extractions if needed, and treatments tailored to what your skin is dealing with right now.
When you leave, your skin looks clearer. Smoother. More even. And that improvement builds when you come back consistently. This isn’t a one-time glow that fades by tomorrow—it’s real progress toward healthier skin.
We’ve been serving Long Island and Queens communities since 2009. Our practice is led by Jennifer DiLandro, a nurse practitioner with over 18 years of experience and advanced training in aesthetic treatments. This isn’t someone who took a weekend course—this is medical-level expertise applied to skincare.
All our treatments are supervised by licensed medical professionals, including board-certified physicians. That means you’re not just getting a spa experience—you’re getting clinical-grade care with the safety and precision that comes from real medical training.
Floral Park residents don’t have to travel far for this level of service. You’re getting the same expertise and FDA-approved treatments available in Manhattan, right here on Long Island.
First, your esthetician assesses your skin. Not a quick glance—an actual evaluation of your skin type, concerns, and what’s realistic to address. This determines which treatment approach makes sense for you.
The facial typically starts with a thorough cleanse to remove makeup, oil, and surface debris. Then comes exfoliation—this could be manual, chemical, or enzyme-based depending on your skin’s needs. If you have clogged pores, extractions come next. Yes, it can be slightly uncomfortable, but it’s one of the most effective ways to clear congestion.
After that, you’ll get a treatment mask targeted to your specific concern—hydration, brightening, calming, or anti-aging. While that sets, there’s usually a relaxing facial massage to boost circulation. The session wraps up with serums, moisturizer, and SPF if it’s daytime.
Most facials run about 60 minutes. You’ll leave with specific aftercare instructions and recommendations for how often to return based on your skin’s condition.

We offer multiple facial options because different skin needs different approaches. Laser facials use light technology to target deeper skin concerns like pigmentation and texture. Carbon facials combine activated charcoal with laser to deep-clean pores and reduce oil production—popular with Floral Park clients dealing with congestion or acne.
Chemical peels use medical-grade acids to remove dead skin layers, improving tone and texture over time. Microdermabrasion physically exfoliates to smooth rough patches and fade surface scarring. Some treatments focus on hydration and barrier repair, others on anti-aging or acne control.
Long Island’s climate—humid summers, harsh winters—affects your skin year-round. Floral Park residents often deal with seasonal dryness or summer breakouts. A good facial adapts to what your skin needs right now, not a one-size-fits-all protocol. That’s why the initial consultation matters—it ensures you’re getting the right treatment, not just the most popular one.
Most dermatologists recommend monthly facials because your skin cells naturally regenerate about every 28 days. Getting a professional treatment on that cycle helps maintain consistent improvement rather than starting from scratch each time.
If you’re dealing with specific issues like acne or hyperpigmentation, you might benefit from more frequent sessions initially—sometimes every two to three weeks—until things stabilize. For maintenance and general skin health, once a month is the standard.
That said, your schedule and budget matter too. Coming in every six to eight weeks is still beneficial if monthly isn’t realistic. The key is consistency over time, not perfection.
It depends on the treatment. If you get extractions or a deeper peel, you might see some redness or minor breakouts in the days following. That’s your skin purging—bringing congestion to the surface faster than it would naturally. It’s temporary and usually clears within a few days.
Gentler facials focused on hydration or calming typically don’t cause purging. You might have slight redness immediately after, but that fades within a few hours. If you have an event coming up, mention it during your consultation so your esthetician can adjust the treatment accordingly.
Avoid scheduling aggressive treatments right before big occasions. Give yourself at least a week of buffer time, or stick with a gentler option if your timeline is tight.
A spa facial is primarily about relaxation. The products are usually gentler, the techniques focus on pampering, and the environment is designed for stress relief. There’s value in that, but the results tend to be temporary—mostly surface-level glow that fades quickly.
A medical facial uses clinical-grade products with higher concentrations of active ingredients. The person performing it has medical training and can assess your skin from a health perspective, not just aesthetics. Treatments can go deeper because there’s medical oversight, which means better long-term results for issues like acne, pigmentation, and aging.
At Dolce Aesthetics NY, you’re getting medical-grade care. Our treatments are supervised by a nurse practitioner and board-certified physicians. That’s a different level of expertise and safety compared to a standard day spa.
Professional facials can absolutely help with acne when done correctly. The key is proper extraction technique and using products that won’t clog your pores or trigger more breakouts. A trained esthetician knows how to clear congestion without damaging your skin or spreading bacteria.
Certain treatments—like chemical peels with salicylic acid or laser facials—are specifically designed to target acne. They reduce oil production, kill acne-causing bacteria, and help prevent future breakouts. You won’t see overnight results, but consistent treatment over a few months makes a real difference.
DIY extractions at home, on the other hand, usually make things worse. You can push bacteria deeper, cause scarring, or create more inflammation. If acne is your main concern, mention it upfront so your treatment can be customized accordingly.
Before your facial, come with a clean face if possible—no makeup makes the process faster. Avoid using any harsh exfoliants or retinoids for a few days prior, especially if you’re getting a chemical peel or laser treatment. Your skin should be in its normal state, not irritated.
After your facial, keep things simple. Don’t use active ingredients like retinol, acids, or vitamin C for at least 24 to 48 hours. Your skin just went through exfoliation and treatment, so give it time to recover. Stick with a gentle cleanser, moisturizer, and sunscreen.
Also, skip the gym, hot yoga, or anything that makes you sweat heavily for the rest of the day. Heat and sweat can irritate freshly treated skin. And definitely wear SPF—your skin is more vulnerable to sun damage right after a facial.
Yes, because professional treatments go deeper than anything you can do at home. Your at-home routine maintains your skin day-to-day, but a professional facial uses techniques and products you don’t have access to—medical-grade peels, extractions, laser technology, and professional-strength serums.
Think of it like dental care. You brush and floss daily, but you still need a dentist for deep cleanings and to catch issues you can’t see. Facials work the same way. They complement your routine, they don’t replace it.
Plus, a trained esthetician can spot problems early—changes in texture, pigmentation, or skin health—that you might miss. Regular facials keep your skin on track and make your at-home products work better because your skin is properly prepped to absorb them.
