The Only Facial Cincinnati, OH

The Only Facial LLC runs a network of facial locations. Rather than offering a menu of add-ons, the business centers on a single signature facial. Each visit is one appointment of about eleven steps, adjusted to the client's skin type and concerns, and priced once with the tip already included.

The signature facial runs 60 minutes and covers cleansing, brow shaping, dermaplaning, microdermabrasion, a chemical peel or enzyme exfoliation, extractions and massage. Brow shaping ranges from a full tweezed arch to a simple cleanup, chosen with the aesthetician. Dermaplaning uses a blade to remove fine vellus hair and dead skin cells, and the company states that it does not make facial hair grow back thicker or darker. The treatment also includes LED light therapy, microcurrent or high frequency, a treatment mask and eye-area hydration with SPF.

The teen facial is a 60-minute appointment for clients aged 13 to 17. It addresses skin concerns common in the pre-teen and teen years and includes education for the teen on proper skin care. The signature facial is for clients 18 and older.

The business recommends a facial every 4 to 6 weeks and aims for steady progress toward long-lasting skin, for clients of any age or skin type. Some dryness and mild flaking for three to five days after a facial is described as normal. If a breakout appears in the treated area afterward, that area can be treated again at no charge. Children are not permitted at appointments, so clients need to arrange childcare beforehand.

Prices depend on location. Signature facials are listed from $125 to $155 and teen facials from $90 to $115, with gratuity included. The company describes itself as a top rated facial spa and says every aesthetician receives training it calls best-in-class for all skin types. The Wichita location page shows a 5.0 rating based on 92 reviews.

Focuses on one customized facial and ongoing maintenance, with the aim of long-lasting skin for clients of any age or skin type.
