Classic Facial safest professional skin renewal - 100+ years clinical history. Side effects: Mild redness 1-2 hours (at manual extraction points), rare irritation, small dots heal in 24 hours. Specific risks: Scarring from wrong extraction (minimum with certified esthetician), bacteria spread (acne risk - manual squeezing requires professional technique - non-certified esthetician dangerous), allergy to mask/serum component (minimized with test), steam burn (too hot steam - in sensitive skin), unclosed pore from early exit = infection risk. Pregnancy + breastfeeding: SAFE (no systemic absorption). Contraindications: Active herpes simplex flare (face), active pustular acne (manual squeezing spread risk), active contact dermatitis, uncontrolled rosacea flare, isotretinoin last 1 month (skin fragility - manual squeezing risky), open wound, laser/IPL/peeling last 7 days (skin sensitivity), previously silicone/collagen injection (after 1 month), allergy to product component.

Manual squeezing safe?
YES with certified esthetician. Professional technique (sterile gauze + proper angle + light pressure) minimum bacteria spread risk. Non-certified esthetician + home squeezing DANGEROUS - bacteria spread, scar, acne worsening.
Is steam harmful?
CAUTION in sensitive + rosacea + telangiectasia. Steam dilates vessels - rosacea can flare. Temperature control important (don't exceed 40°C). Steam can be skipped in sensitive skin, only moist hot towel used.
How often?
General maintenance: 1/month. Acne: Every 2 weeks (intensive phase) → monthly (control). Sensitive: Every 6 weeks (overcleansing = irritation). Event: Single session 3-7 days before.
Done in pregnancy?
YES — safest professional skincare. No systemic absorption. Can be done even for pregnancy melasma. Product selection important - retinoid contraindicated in pregnancy. Experienced Team gives special routine for pregnancy.
Suitable for men + teens?
YES — suitable for everyone. Male skincare starts with classic facial (shaving + sebum control + revitalization). Teen 13+ years ideal for acne management. Pregnancy/breastfeeding compatible.
Cost?
Classic facial most affordable professional skincare option. Monthly maintenance package advantageous. Premium brand usage (Dermalogica, Filorga, Babor) more expensive. TSHEALTH CLINIC gives custom price in consultation.
Who performs Classic Facial Traditional Treatment?

Dr. Selman Taşkın, Specialist in Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery. A graduate of İstanbul University-Cerrahpaşa Faculty of Medicine with reconstructive microsurgery experience at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital (Taiwan), Dr. Taşkın's expertise is the foundation of safe, natural results.
What is a facial / chemical peel and how is it done?
It is the gentle exfoliation, hydration and revitalisation of the skin; depending on need, a chemical peel, deep cleanse or device-assisted facial is applied.
What is a facial used for?
It is done to even skin tone, reduce pigmentation and roughness, clarify pores, support acne and give the skin a glow.
How many sessions does a facial need?
A single facial gives immediate freshness, but for targets like pigmentation and texture a course of sessions at intervals gives the best result; I plan to your skin.
When are results seen?
Smoothness and glow are often noticed after the first session; for targets like pigmentation and acne scars the result becomes clearer as sessions progress.
Does the skin peel after a chemical peel and what is recovery like?
Superficial facials cause no notable peeling; a medium-to-deep chemical peel may cause a few days of mild redness and flaking, which is an expected and temporary process.
Is a facial painful?
Most facials are painless; a chemical peel may cause brief mild stinging or tingling that passes quickly.
Is it suitable for every skin type?
The content and strength are adjusted to skin type; because I choose gentler protocols for sensitive or problem skin, most skin types can be treated safely.
How often should a facial be repeated?
To maintain skin health a facial every few weeks is usually recommended; once the goal is reached the intervals can be lengthened.
Is sun protection needed after a peel?
Yes; the skin is sun-sensitive especially after a peel, so high-factor sunscreen preserves the result and reduces the risk of pigmentation.
Who can have a facial?
Almost anyone wanting to improve skin health and appearance is suitable; with an active skin infection or certain conditions the protocol is adjusted accordingly.
