Massimo Facial

Some days you need more than a facial. You need 90 minutes where someone takes care of your face, your back, and your legs, all in one session, while you do absolutely nothing but breathe.

That is the Massimo Facial at Pia Esthetics Day Spa in South Tampa. It is a full AgeSmart facial combined with back exfoliation, back massage, and a warm steamed towel leg massage. It sits somewhere between a facial and a spa day, and it delivers both.

What Is the Massimo Facial?

This is the most complete single treatment on the skin care menu. It runs 90 minutes and covers more ground than almost anything else we offer.

Your esthetician works through a full AgeSmart facial on your face and neck, targeting tone, texture, hydration, and firmness. Active serums are applied and guided into the skin using professional techniques. The facial includes extractions, so congested pores and milia get cleared out along the way.

While your skin is being treated, the experience stays intentionally relaxing throughout. This is not a clinical appointment. It is designed to feel as good as it looks.

Then your back gets the same level of attention. Full exfoliation removes buildup and rough texture from an area that most people never think to treat professionally. That is followed by a back massage that addresses tension in exactly the place where most of it lives.

Your legs finish the treatment. Warm steamed towels wrap around them while your esthetician massages out the tightness. By the time this is done, you will have forgotten what stress felt like.

What to Expect

Plan for a full 90 minutes. You will be in a private, comfortable room the entire time. Bring nothing except yourself. Your esthetician takes care of the rest.

The session moves through several stages: facial cleansing, AgeSmart treatment, extractions, serum application, back exfoliation, back massage, and the warm towel leg massage. Each stage flows into the next without feeling rushed.

Most clients feel the difference immediately. Skin looks clearer and more hydrated. The back feels smoother. The legs feel lighter. And the overall sense of calm that sets in during the treatment tends to last well into the next day.

Who Is This For?

The Massimo is the right choice if you:

• Want a full facial with real results, not just surface-level relaxation
• Carry tension in your back and rarely get it properly addressed
• Are treating yourself or someone else to something genuinely special
• Want a single appointment that covers face, back, and legs in one visit
• Are celebrating something, or just need a reason to stop and reset

This also makes one of the best gift card choices in the entire menu. If you are looking for something to give someone who has everything, this is it.

Good to Know: After Your Treatment

Give your skin time to absorb everything it just received.

Wait at least six to eight hours before washing your face. The serums and treatment products are still working, and rinsing too soon shortens your results. If possible, skip makeup for the rest of the day.

For the next 24 to 48 hours, avoid Retinol, AHAs, and Vitamin C serums. Your skin is more receptive right now but also more sensitive. Apply SPF before going outside and skip tanning beds for at least a few days.

The back exfoliation leaves that skin fresh and more reactive to the sun as well, so the same SPF rule applies if any part of your back will be exposed.

Want to Make It a Regular Thing?

Most clients who try the Massimo Facial come back for it. A lot of them build it into their routine every six to eight weeks as a full reset. If you want something between visits, the Perfecto Facial covers the face in 60 minutes and pairs well as a maintenance option.

Ask your esthetician what schedule makes sense for your skin and your lifestyle.
