Tailored skincare for the way men's skin actually works.
Men's skin is structurally different — thicker, oilier, more prone to ingrown hairs from shaving, and often more sun-damaged than skin that's worn SPF religiously. The Gentlemen's Facial at DaVida Medical Aesthetics in San Antonio is designed for those specific realities: deep cleansing, hot towels, careful exfoliation, customized mask, and a hydrating finish — paired with head, neck, and shoulder massage and skincare guidance for daily routines that actually fit a guy's life.
Why people reach for it
Skincare calibrated to the realities of men's skin: thicker stratum corneum, more sebum production, daily shaving irritation, and often years of accumulated sun damage from outdoor activities.
Hot towels, careful exfoliation, and barrier-supporting products specifically address the irritation, ingrown hairs, and razor burn that come from regular shaving.
Head, neck, and shoulder massage built in — addressing the muscle tension most men carry alongside the skincare benefits. A deeper relaxation experience than most men expect from a 'facial.'
Ends with skincare advice tailored to actually-realistic male routines: 2–3 products max, integrated with shaving, no fussy multi-step systems. Real-world skincare that fits real-life schedules.
Who it's for
The Gentlemen's Facial is right for men dealing with:
Why it works
Multi-step cleanse calibrated for thicker, oilier skin — clearing excess sebum, sweat, and environmental buildup that often accumulates more in men's skin.
Steamed towels that soften skin and open pores — meaningful for men whose skin is generally tougher and less permeable to topical products. Also deeply relaxing.
Products that calm post-shave inflammation, lift trapped hairs, and support the barrier in areas damaged by daily shaving.
Mask selection based on your specific concerns — clarifying for breakouts, hydrating for dryness, anti-aging for fine lines, calming for redness or razor burn.
Built-in massage that releases the tension most men carry in those areas — turning the facial into a deeper recovery experience, not just skincare.

Common questions
How much does the Gentlemen's Facial cost in San Antonio?
At DaVida, the Gentlemen's Facial is $85 per treatment — same price as our standard custom facial, but designed specifically for men's skin needs and including the head/neck/shoulder massage component.
Is this just a regular facial with a different name?
No — the products, technique, and focus are different. Men's skin is thicker and oilier, requires different cleansing intensity, and often deals with shaving-specific concerns that women's facials don't address. The treatment is calibrated specifically for those differences.
Will the products feel too 'feminine'?
No — we use unscented or lightly-scented medical-grade products throughout, and the skincare advice is product-recommendation-based rather than 'multi-step routine'-based. The experience itself is professional and skincare-focused, not perfumed or floral.
I've never had a facial. Is this a good first one?
Yes — the Gentlemen's Facial is designed for first-time clients in mind. The aesthetician will explain each step, the massage component makes it feel like a recovery treatment rather than a beauty service, and the practical aftercare guidance leaves you with realistic next steps for skincare at home.
How often should men get facials?
Monthly is ideal for ongoing skin maintenance — particularly for men dealing with daily shaving and accumulated sun damage. Some men book quarterly as a baseline, with extra treatments before events. The cadence depends on skin concerns and life schedule.
Can I add dermaplaning or other services?
Yes — common add-ons for the Gentlemen's Facial include vitamin injections (B12 for energy is popular), brow shaping, and dermaplaning. We can layer add-ons during booking. Note: dermaplaning works on men's skin too, even with daily shaving.
"The Gentlemen's Facial is one of our most under-booked services for the impact it delivers — most men leave saying they didn't realize a 'facial' could feel that good. The combination of deep cleansing for skin and head/neck massage for tension is exactly what most men need but don't know to ask for."
