Which areas are covered
Full Face (Excluding Neck) covers at least three of these zones: cheeks, chin, forehead, nose, sideburns, uni-brow, and upper lips. The package explicitly excludes ears. Choosing which areas to include depends on your goals and the pattern of facial hair you want reduced, and we'll confirm target zones during your consultation.
Treatments focus on small facial zones rather than the neck; each face area is treated in sequence during a single visit. Sessions are designed to be efficient and focused so multiple areas can be addressed in the same appointment without extending usual visit time or compromising care.
How the treatment works
The procedure uses controlled pulses of light energy applied to the skin surface and absorbed by pigment in hair. Those pulses act at the hair’s growth structures over time; the process works in cycles so several treatments are normally needed. Individual hair color, density and hormonal factors shape how the treatment performs for each patient.
A typical Full Face visit at our Lorton location is brief and targeted; Duration: 20 MINUTES per session. Treatments reduce hair prominence over a course of visits rather than removing every hair in a single appointment. We do not promise specific outcomes, and results differ by individual.
Preparing and aftercare steps
Before your appointment, arrive with clean skin and avoid makeup, lotions, or heavy topical products on the day of treatment. Do not wax or pluck target hairs prior to a session; shaving may be recommended instead. If you have recent sun exposure or a tan, let us know—sun avoidance is commonly advised for safe treatment.
Aftercare focuses on skin protection and comfort: minimize direct sun exposure and use broad-spectrum sunscreen in Lorton’s variable climate, especially during humid, sunny summers. Avoid aggressive exfoliation and extreme heat for a few days. Specific instructions will be provided at your appointment based on the treated areas.
Scheduling and local access
Appointments are designed for convenience around busy Northern Virginia schedules; the visit itself lasts about 20 minutes. Price for a single Full Face session is $80. Metropolitan Med Spa sits in the Gunston Corner and Laurel Hill area of Lorton, with convenient access from Silverbrook Road, Lorton Road, U.S. Route 1, and I-95 for commuters.
Clients from Lorton, Newington, Woodbridge, Springfield, Fort Belvoir and Mason Neck commonly choose full-face treatments to simplify grooming. Because hair grows in cycles, we typically recommend a course of visits spread over weeks. We’ll discuss timing that fits your commute and routine during your consultation.
