What actually happens
Inside the Lymphatic Drainage Facial, step by step
No mystery, no vague "detox" promises. Here's the real process behind this facial, photographed as it happens — not stock photos.
1
Skin analysis
Before any massage or product touches your face, Adina's assessing your skin type and what's actually going on — puffiness, congestion, dullness, dehydration. This determines exactly how the lymphatic massage and every step after it gets approached.
2
Lymphatic massage
The whole reason this facial has its name. A specific massage technique that encourages lymphatic flow, reduces puffiness, and supports circulation — leaving the face looking more sculpted and refreshed, not just relaxed for an hour.
3
Cleanse
A deeper cleanse to clear out whatever the lymphatic massage stirred loose, plus any remaining oil and buildup — prepping the skin properly before treatment actually starts.
4
Enzyme mask
A gentle exfoliating enzyme mask that dissolves dead skin cells instead of scrubbing them off — smoothing texture, brightening the complexion, and helping the serums later actually absorb instead of sitting on the surface.
5
Extractions
Careful removal of blackheads, whiteheads, and pore congestion. Puffiness isn't the only thing making skin look tired — clogged pores are doing their own damage, and this is where that gets handled.
6
High frequency
A gentle electrical current that helps calm the appearance of inflammation, purify the skin, and support clearer-looking pores — the follow-up act that keeps working after the extractions are done.
7
Treatment mask
A mask chosen for what your skin actually needed at step one, not a default. Hydrating, soothing, or brightening — whatever your skin analysis called for.
8
Serums
Targeted serums go to work on whatever's bothering you most, right where it's needed — now that your skin can actually absorb them instead of fighting through buildup.
9
Moisturizer
A nourishing moisturizer to replenish hydration and support the skin barrier, locking in everything the last eight steps just did.
10
Sunscreen
Broad-spectrum SPF, applied last, to protect against UV exposure and premature aging and hyperpigmentation. The de-puffed, sculpted look means nothing if sun damage undoes it by next week.

Who's actually doing your facial
Adina Tounalom, licensed esthetician
Skin Lab isn't a franchise med spa where "lymphatic drainage" gets slapped onto the menu as a buzzword. Every Lymphatic Drainage Facial is performed personally by Adina Tounalom, a licensed esthetician who uses a real manual lymphatic massage technique, not a five-minute jade roller pass at the end of a standard facial.
That's the difference between a facial spa in Memphis that treats lymphatic drainage as an add-on, and a treatment actually built around it from step one — skin analysis first, massage second, and everything after tailored to what your face actually needs that day.

According to the Cleveland Clinic, lymphatic drainage massage is a gentle technique that encourages the natural movement of lymph fluid through the body — the same principle behind why this facial helps with facial puffiness specifically, not just skin texture.

Questions
Lymphatic Drainage Facial FAQ
The questions we actually get asked before someone books.
What's included in the Lymphatic Drainage Facial?
Every Lymphatic Drainage Facial includes a full skin analysis, lymphatic massage, deep cleanse, enzyme mask, extractions, high frequency therapy, targeted serums, a customized treatment mask, moisturizer, and broad-spectrum SPF.
What does lymphatic drainage actually do for your face?
Lymphatic massage encourages the lymphatic system to move excess fluid and buildup out of facial tissue, which helps reduce puffiness, support circulation, and leave the face looking more sculpted and refreshed. It's a manual technique, not a machine or a mask, just slow, rhythmic pressure in specific directions.
Will this help with puffiness and under-eye bags?
Yes, reducing puffiness is one of the main reasons people book this facial. The lymphatic massage targets fluid buildup around the eyes, cheeks, and jawline specifically, so a more de-puffed, contoured look is one of the more immediate results.
Is a lymphatic drainage facial good for acne-prone or congested skin?
It can be a strong option. Moving stagnant fluid and reducing inflammation supports clearer-looking skin, and it's paired here with extractions and high frequency therapy to directly address congestion and breakouts, not just the puffiness.
Does the lymphatic massage hurt?
No, it's the opposite of the extractions step. Lymphatic massage uses light, rhythmic pressure and should feel relaxing, almost like a slow facial massage, not deep tissue work.
How long does the Lymphatic Drainage Facial take?
Plan on about 60 minutes for the full process: skin analysis, lymphatic massage, deep cleanse, enzyme mask, extractions, high frequency, serums, treatment mask, moisturizer, and SPF.
How much does the Lymphatic Drainage Facial cost?
The Lymphatic Drainage Facial is $165. Check the pricing above for any current limited-time offers, since we periodically run seasonal specials.
