Back Facial salons and stylists across the UK
What to expect from a back facial appointment
A back facial treats the skin between the shoulder blades and across the upper back, an area that builds up congestion from clothing, sweat and sun. The therapist starts with a cleanse and steam to open pores, works through extractions, applies an exfoliant and mask, and finishes with a hydrating serum. The appointment runs around an hour. Most regulars book back facials four to six times a year, often before holidays or an open-back outfit. See back-facial specialists in the UK below, with prices and timing tied to seasonal events.

Frequently asked questions
What is a back facial?
A back facial treats the skin between the shoulder blades and across the upper back, which builds up congestion from clothing, sweat and sun. The therapist cleanses, steams, extracts, masks and finishes with a hydrating serum across the area.
How long does a back facial take?
About an hour. Some providers offer a quicker forty-five-minute option that skips the steam stage. Many clients book a back facial before holidays or an open-back outfit.
How often should I have a back facial?
Four to six times a year covers most clients. If you have persistent back acne, a fortnightly course during the active phase, then maintenance every six to eight weeks, works better.
How much does a back facial cost?
A standard back facial typically runs sixty to ninety pounds in UK clinics. Premium spas with longer durations or LED add-ons sit at one hundred to one hundred fifty. Course pricing offers a discount over single sessions for ongoing skin issues.
Should I shave or wax my back before a back facial?
No. Avoid waxing or sharp exfoliation for at least seventy-two hours before. Shaving is fine the day before but skip same-day shaving. Arrive with clean skin in loose, easy-to-remove clothing.
