Medi Facials Treatment
in Chennai
Dermatologist-Led Facials Customised to Your Exact Skin Concern
A standard salon facial follows the same basic steps for every client, regardless of their actual skin condition. Medi Facials are dermatologist-led treatments that begin with a proper skin diagnosis, using medical-grade actives and techniques selected specifically for your skin concern, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
At our Anna Nagar clinic, every Medi Facial is performed only after a detailed skin assessment by experienced dermatologists to build a protocol suited specifically to your skin’s condition and goals.

What is a Medi Facial?
A Medi Facial, short for medical facial, is a dermatologist-led treatment that differs from a standard salon facial in a fundamental way: it begins with a proper diagnostic skin assessment rather than applying the same standardised steps to every client. Based on this assessment, a combination of medical-grade cleansing, exfoliation, extraction and active ingredient infusion is selected specifically to address your diagnosed skin concern, whether that’s dullness, congestion, mild pigmentation or early signs of ageing.
This diagnosis-first approach is the core distinction from both regular salon facials and even device-specific treatments like HydraFacial: while HydraFacial offers customisation within the scope of one particular device and its serum options, a Medi Facial can draw from a broader range of medical-grade actives and techniques based on what your skin specifically needs, guided by a dermatologist’s assessment rather than a fixed protocol.
Because the actives used in a Medi Facial are medical-grade rather than standard cosmetic-grade products, they are often formulated at higher, more clinically effective concentrations than what’s typically used in a salon setting, while still being applied safely within a dermatologist-supervised protocol. This is why Medi Facials are often recommended as an entry point for people wanting visible, targeted results beyond what a regular facial can offer, without yet needing a more intensive procedure like a peel or laser treatment.
At our Anna Nagar clinic, every Medi Facial is performed only after a detailed skin assessment by experienced dermatologists to build a protocol – combining the right cleansing, exfoliation and active infusion steps – suited specifically to your skin’s diagnosed condition and goals.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Medi Facial?
A Medi Facial is a dermatologist-led facial treatment that begins with a proper skin diagnosis, using medical-grade actives and techniques selected specifically for your skin concern, rather than following the same fixed steps used in a standard salon facial.
How is a Medi Facial different from a regular facial?
A Medi Facial starts with a dermatologist’s diagnostic assessment and uses medical-grade actives tailored to your specific skin condition, while a regular salon facial typically follows the same standardised steps regardless of individual skin concerns.
How much does a Medi Facial cost in Chennai?
Medi Facial treatment in Chennai typically starts from ₹3,500 per session at Anucare. The final cost depends on the specific protocol and actives selected based on your dermatologist’s diagnosis.
Is a Medi Facial suitable for all skin types?
Yes, because a Medi Facial is built around your specific skin diagnosis rather than a fixed protocol, it can generally be adapted for most skin types and concerns, as confirmed during your consultation.
How many sessions are needed?
The number of sessions depends entirely on your specific diagnosis and skin goals, which your dermatologist will outline after your initial assessment, rather than following a single fixed recommendation for everyone.
Does a Medi Facial hurt?
No, a Medi Facial is generally a comfortable, non-invasive treatment. Any specific sensations depend on which actives or techniques are included in your personalised protocol.
Is there downtime after a Medi Facial?
Downtime is typically minimal to none, though this can vary slightly depending on which specific actives or techniques are included in your personalised protocol.
Can a Medi Facial replace other treatments like peels or lasers?
A Medi Facial can address many concerns effectively on its own, but for more advanced issues, it may serve as a starting point before your dermatologist recommends a more targeted treatment like Chemical Peel or Dermapen 4.
Can a Medi Facial be combined with other treatments?
Yes, Medi Facials are often used as a complementary or maintenance treatment alongside other targeted procedures, based on your dermatologist’s recommendations.
