The classic European facial — now enhanced with a lifting massage for ultimate skin rejuvenation.
At New Age Spa in Montreal and Laval, our Classic European Facial is the gold standard of skin maintenance — a complete, holistic facial treatment that cleanses, exfoliates, nourishes, and firms the skin using pharmaceutical-grade skincare products and expert technique. This timeless protocol has been enhanced with our signature lifting facial massage, which targets facial muscle tone, firms the skin around the jawline and eyes, and delivers an immediate lifting and brightening effect that goes beyond conventional facials. Suitable for all skin types — normal, combination, oily, dry, sensitive, and ethnic skin — the European Facial is the most versatile and universally effective facial treatment we offer. Available at our clinics across Greater Montreal: Downtown, Laval, Saint-Léonard, and DDO.
Skin concerns the European Facial addresses.
Designed for universal compatibility, the Classic European Facial is customized at every session to target your most pressing concerns — from everyday maintenance to targeted anti-aging and hydration.
What's included in the Classic European Facial?
Every session opens with a thorough skin assessment. Your esthetician evaluates your skin type, hydration levels, sensitivity, and current concerns to select the ideal pharmaceutical-grade products and tailor every step of the protocol to your skin that day. No two sessions are identical — the treatment evolves with your skin.
A professional-grade cleanse removes surface impurities, environmental pollutants, makeup residue, and excess sebum — preparing the skin to fully absorb the treatment steps that follow. This foundational step is performed more thoroughly than any at-home cleansing routine can achieve, resetting the skin's surface for maximum treatment efficacy.
A carefully selected exfoliant is applied to dissolve dead skin cell buildup, smooth uneven texture, and instantly reveal a brighter, more even complexion beneath. The type and intensity of exfoliation is adapted to your skin's sensitivity and condition — from enzyme-based options for reactive skin to deeper exfoliation for congested or thickened complexions.
Using professional skincare lines including GM Collin and Dermalogica, a targeted serum and mask are applied to deeply infuse the skin with moisture, antioxidants, and active ingredients selected for your skin type and concerns. This step delivers a level of hydration and nourishment that consumer-grade products cannot replicate — the skin is left plump, soft, and visibly revitalized.
The defining enhancement of our Classic European Facial — a structured lifting massage using targeted manual techniques to stimulate lymphatic drainage, improve circulation, relax facial muscles, and firm the skin around the jawline, cheekbones, and eye contour. The lifting massage delivers an immediate visible improvement in skin tone and radiance while contributing to long-term facial contour maintenance with regular sessions.
Three pillars of our European Facial protocol.
The Classic European Facial is built around three core elements that work in synergy — each one delivering distinct skin benefits that together produce the comprehensive rejuvenation result the treatment is known for.
The first two steps of the European Facial achieve a level of skin preparation that no home routine can match. Professional cleansing removes all layers of surface buildup, and the tailored exfoliation that follows reveals fresher, smoother skin while enhancing the penetration and efficacy of every product applied afterward. This preparation stage is what elevates the results of the entire treatment above consumer-grade alternatives.
All facial treatmentsEvery product used in our European Facial is sourced from professional-exclusive skincare lines — GM Collin, Dermalogica, and Esthemax — formulated at concentrations and with active ingredients not available in retail products. Serums, masks, and moisturizers are selected individually for your skin type and concerns at each session, ensuring the nourishment and active ingredient delivery is precisely matched to what your skin needs that day.
Explore skin concernsOur lifting massage technique combines lymphatic drainage movements, acupressure points, and targeted muscle-lifting strokes to firm and contour the face immediately. Particular focus is given to the eye contour area — one of the first regions to show visible aging — where the massage reduces puffiness, softens crow's feet, and lifts the upper cheek. Regular sessions progressively improve facial muscle tone and skin elasticity beyond what topical products can achieve alone.
Anti-aging treatmentsKey benefits of the Classic European Facial.
The European Facial delivers immediate visible results after a single session while building significant cumulative improvements in skin health, radiance, and firmness over a consistent treatment series.
Pharmaceutical-grade serums and masks infuse the skin with moisture at a depth and concentration that at-home products cannot achieve. The result is visibly plumper, softer skin with an immediate glow that continues to improve in the 48 hours following your treatment as active ingredients continue to work.
Professional exfoliation removes the dull, dead surface layer that masks your skin's natural radiance. After a single session, the complexion appears noticeably brighter, more even in tone, and more luminous — a result that compounds significantly with regular monthly treatments.
The signature lifting massage delivers an immediate visible improvement in facial contour and skin firmness. With regular sessions, the cumulative effect on facial muscle tone and skin elasticity progressively delays the visible signs of aging in a way that no topical product can replicate.
Targeted massage around the eye area reduces puffiness, softens the appearance of crow's feet and fine lines, and lifts the upper cheek area. This is one of the most popular visible results clients notice immediately after their European Facial session.
Professional exfoliation followed by deep hydration smooths the skin's surface texture noticeably. Rough patches, uneven texture, and the "congested" look of unexfoliated skin are visibly refined — leaving the complexion smoother, more refined, and better prepared to absorb your daily skincare routine.
A monthly European Facial series delivers compounding anti-aging benefits over time — progressively improved skin hydration, firmness, tone, and radiance. Clients who maintain a consistent treatment schedule report a sustained improvement in overall skin quality that maintains the appearance of healthy, youthful skin well beyond what home care alone can preserve.

Who is the Classic European Facial for?
The European Facial is one of the only facial protocols genuinely suited to every skin type — normal, combination, oily, dry, sensitive, and ethnic skin. The product selection and technique are customized at every session, making it the most universally appropriate facial treatment we offer and an ideal starting point for first-time spa clients.
Clients seeking a non-invasive approach to maintaining skin firmness, reducing fine lines, and preserving a youthful facial contour benefit enormously from a regular European Facial series. The lifting massage component provides progressive, cumulative firming results that complement any anti-aging skincare routine.
For clients experiencing chronic dryness, tightness, or dehydration — whether from climate, seasonal changes, or skin type — the European Facial's professional hydration step delivers deep moisture restoration that topical home products cannot replicate in a single application. One session typically provides noticeable relief that lasts several weeks.
When the skin looks tired, grey, or lackluster — from stress, lack of sleep, pollution, or seasonal transitions — the European Facial's combination of exfoliation, circulation-stimulating massage, and bright-boosting serums delivers an immediate and dramatic improvement in radiance and vitality.
The European Facial is the most popular pre-event skin treatment for clients preparing for weddings, galas, graduations, and professional photoshoots. The lifting massage, hydration, and brightening steps combine to produce a visible "lit from within" glow. Schedule 3–5 days before your event for optimal results.
For clients who maintain a consistent skincare routine at home and want to extend its results with professional-grade treatments, the monthly European Facial is the ideal complement. It resets the skin's surface, addresses seasonal variations in skin condition, and delivers the deeper ingredient penetration that only professional products and techniques can provide.
