Genoveva Fernández is a licensed esthetician with a quiet room on Blanco Road in San Antonio. Visits run 60 to 90 minutes, nobody rushes you, and she speaks English and Spanish.

By decade
There's no one right facial after 50. Pick the tab closest to you, and Genoveva sets the length and the pace with you at the consultation.
Many people want a simpler routine in these years, and a regular visit to go with it. A visit is 60 minutes: a cleanse, a facial massage, a mask chosen with you and a few minutes to talk through what you use at home.
A 60-minute gentle facial
Every four to six weeks, if you'd like a regular visit
A written note of what you use at home, with a copy for you
A slower pace suits these years. A visit is 75 minutes, with a longer facial massage, warm towels and a pause between steps, so you are never hurried.
A 75-minute massage-led facial
Warm towels and a longer neck and shoulder massage
You choose the pressure, and you can ask to stop at any point
Visits are 90 minutes and set at your pace. If lying flat isn't comfortable, Genoveva raises the bed or works with you seated. A daughter, a son or a friend is welcome to wait in the room.
A 90-minute visit, with a rest between steps
A raised bed or a chair, whichever is easier
Parking at the door and an entrance with no steps
