Oxygen Infusion Facial

A session usually lasts thirty to sixty minutes: cleanse, a light exfoliating or softening step, then several passes of the oxygen handpiece, followed by a mask, moisturiser, and sunscreen. Because nothing abrades or heats the skin, most people go straight back to work or out for the evening. Salons often pair it with a hydrating or brightening serum and market it as a pre-event pick-me-up rather than a course of care.

It is worth understanding what the name does and does not mean. Blowing air across the face does not oxygenate the body, and marketing language about oxygen “feeding” the skin runs well ahead of what a surface cosmetic service can be said to do. What people generally notice is a plumped, freshly hydrated look right afterwards, typically lasting a day or a few days depending on skin and climate.

The device concentrates air — in some units enriched with oxygen — and delivers it through a nozzle at low pressure, often atomising a serum at the same time. Practically, the effect comes from three ordinary things: the serum itself, the even film the mist lays down, and the cooling of the airflow, which can make the skin look temporarily calmer and less flushed. The therapist works in sections, keeping the nozzle moving and away from the eyes.
