Facials & Skin Treatments
Moisturizing Organic Facial at Mountain Medical Spa, part of our Facials & Skin Treatments menu.
Overview
A straightforward, thorough facial using organic products, built for skin that has spent too long in dry mountain air. Cleanse, exfoliate, extract where it’s needed, mask, massage, and finish with something that actually holds moisture in.
It runs about an hour. There’s no downtime and nothing about it stings. Most people book it as maintenance every four to six weeks, and it’s the one treatment on this menu that suits almost everybody, including skin too sensitive for anything stronger.
If your skin feels tight by mid-afternoon, flakes at the sides of your nose, or has started stinging when you put product on it, start here before you try anything stronger. A lot of what looks like aging up here is dehydration, and that’s worth ruling out before you spend money on correcting it.
We look before we treat. What you came in asking for and what your skin actually needs are often different, and sorting that out — under proper light, with your history and medications on the table — is the consultation.
You are in a room set up for that one treatment, with the provider who planned it. Nothing gets wheeled in from elsewhere, and nobody is being treated in the next chair.
Before you book: how many sessions, what it costs, and how long you will look less than your best afterwards. After: written aftercare and a follow-up, usually at two weeks, to see the result and adjust.
Treatment candidacy, risks, benefits, recovery, and expected results vary by individual and are determined during consultation.

Good to Know
Facials and skin treatments including microneedling and dermaplaning, injectables (neurotoxins, dermal fillers, PRF and EZGel), laser treatments from hair reduction to Tetra CO2 CoolPeel resurfacing, hormone replacement pellet therapy, and vitamin and wellness therapies including IV infusions and NAD+. Each plan is built around what your skin and your labs actually show.
Yes, and it is not a formality. We need your health history and you need to know what you are agreeing to. The consultation runs about forty-five minutes and there is no obligation to book treatment at the end of it.
Every treatment is medically supervised. Nancy Walker is a board-certified nurse practitioner, and we use FDA-cleared devices and products. Safe does not mean risk-free, though, and part of the consultation is going through the actual risks for you specifically.
It depends entirely on the treatment. IV therapy, vitamin injections, and most injectables are lunch-hour appointments. Microneedling and laser resurfacing will leave you red and flaking for several days. We tell you which one you are signing up for in concrete terms before you book, not afterward.
October through March. Laser and light treatments work best on skin that is not tanned, and freshly treated skin is more sun-sensitive for a couple of weeks. At 6,920 feet, strong sun is most days of the year. If you ski, tell us and we will schedule between your trips.
A small bioidentical hormone pellet is placed under the skin and releases steadily over three to six months. We start with blood work, not with a pellet. If your labs and symptoms line up we will talk about it; if they point somewhere else we will tell you to see your physician.
Yes, through Cherry. Checking your options takes about a minute and uses a soft credit check, which does not affect your score. We make no lending decisions and never see your credit file.

Start with a consultation. We will tell you whether this is the right treatment for you, and say so plainly if it is not.
