Yamel Varela Esthetician is a clinical skincare business in San Mateo, which the business describes as boutique. Its menu is built around facial treatments for skin concerns such as congestion, acne, rosacea-prone skin and uneven tone, along with anti-aging options aimed at fine lines and sagging skin.
The Hydraglow Facial is a 60-minute, non-invasive, multi-step treatment that cleanses and exfoliates the skin, then infuses it with antioxidants, hyaluronic acid and serums, with microcurrent included. Skin Genesis is another 60-minute multi-step facial that combines exfoliation, oxygen-boosting technology, collagen-stimulating skin activation and ultrasound infusion. Medical Deep Skin Cleansing is a 120-minute non-invasive clinical facial using deep-pore cleansing, ultrasonic exfoliation, cold plasma, ultrasound and gentle dermabrasion, adjusted to skin condition and sensitivity. The Secret Glow Advanced Firming Facial runs 75 minutes, uses hand-applied technology and an LED capsule on the eyes, eyelids, neck and jawline.
The paramedical tattoo and permanent makeup group uses micropigmentation. Brow micropigmentation is offered as Nano Brows, a hair-stroke technique, or microblading, shaped to facial structure, skin type and natural brow growth. Paramedical tattooing for scar and skin camouflage softens the look of burn, surgical, acne and breast surgery scars, stretch marks, and areas of pigment loss, and pricing depends on the size, location and condition of the area. Areola restoration after breast surgery is done with 3D areola tattooing, priced per areola.
Lash lifting curls natural lashes upward for definition without extensions. The threading and waxing group covers brow design, which maps and shapes brows to each client's features, and brow lamination, which sets each brow hair in one direction to smooth and lift brows that are unruly or sparse.
Clients are asked to wait at least 24 hours before applying makeup after a facial and to avoid excess moisture, oils or rubbing the treated area right after treatment. Clients with very sensitive skin can say so in advance so treatments can be adjusted. Mild redness after waxing or threading usually settles within a few hours.
Treatments are presented as clinical, with methods chosen for skin condition and sensitivity, and adjusted when clients share sensitivities.
