There are very few things in this world that are more relaxing than a facial. But while we’d love to set aside a full hour each month for an aesthetician to bring our skin back to life, it’s just not feasible. Not only are facials time-consuming, but they can also leave your skin tomato-red and slightly swollen, hindering any post-facial plans you may have previously set. So, we tracked down the speediest facials that promise zero downtime and real results. Whether you enjoy these quickie treatments only occasionally on your lunch break or book a weekly standing appointment, your skin will thank you.
