ONCOLOGY FACIALS

Skin in treatment needs a different read.

In treatment now? Just out of it? Years past it? Your skin is welcome here. Every esthetician on staff is trained for exactly where it is today.

What actually happens

Cancer treatment changes how skin works. Chemotherapy, radiation, and many targeted therapies all do this.

Your skin's barrier normally holds moisture in. It keeps irritants out.

Treatment can weaken that barrier. Skin that was never sensitive before may start to react.

Products it handled fine a year ago can now sting. So an oncology facial starts with a skin read focused on exactly that.

How is the barrier holding up? What can the skin handle right now?

What is it short of? The products we use are Skin Diva Labs formulas.

They are made without emulsifiers. So the facial will not strip a barrier that is already weak.

Who this suits

This facial is built for skin in cancer treatment now. It also serves skin in recovery.

And it serves skin left sensitive by past treatment. It is not a general sensitive-skin facial with a new name.

Every esthetician here trains in oncology-safe protocol. That training is a standing rule, not a special-request add-on.

So any esthetician you book with is ready to work with treatment-affected skin.

Where this specialty came from

Nancy Reagan, Bella Reina's founder, is a cancer survivor herself. The oncology-safe standard here grew straight out of that experience.

So did the Skin Diva Labs product line. Both were built for skin truly changed by medical treatment.

Not for skin that is merely stressed or tired. Plenty of facials are marketed as gentle.

This one is actually built around what fragile skin can handle.

Bring your treatment calendar — we schedule around infusion weeks, and the front desk never needs it explained twice.

Common questions

Can I book an oncology facial while I'm still in active treatment?

Yes. This facial is built for skin in active cancer treatment. The formulas are free of emulsifiers. They add no stress to a weakened barrier. At intake, tell us your treatment stage and anything your skin reacts to.

Is every esthetician trained for this, or do I need to request someone?

Every esthetician on staff trains in oncology-safe protocol. It is a standing requirement here. So you can book with any of them. Prefer someone you have worked with before? You are welcome to request them.

What products are used during an oncology facial?

Mostly Skin Diva Labs formulas. They are made without emulsifiers, so a weakened barrier is not stripped. We add other product lines based on your own skin read.

Is this only for active treatment, or also for skin in recovery?

Both. Skin can carry sensitivity and barrier changes long after treatment ends. The oncology-safe protocol covers that recovery period too — not just active treatment.

Is there any downtime after an oncology facial?

None. The facial is designed to support and calm fragile skin. It adds no stress that would need recovery time.

Skin in treatment gets its own protocol here.
