What the service includes
This session begins with deep cleansing using steam to loosen debris and prepare pores, followed by microdermabrasion exfoliation to gently remove dead skin cells. A nourishing Comfort Zone hydrating mask is applied to restore moisture, then a relaxing glow massage finishes the back treatment. Waxing follows to remove unwanted hair, all delivered within an 80 MINUTES appointment priced at $125.
Combining exfoliation and waxing in one visit accelerates the pathway to a polished back, but it also requires careful timing and technique to manage sensitivity. Our therapists tailor exfoliation intensity and mask selection with Comfort Zone products to soothe the skin before waxing. If your skin is highly reactive, mention it during booking so we can adapt the protocol.
How the method shapes results
Microdermabrasion removes surface dead cells so topical hydration from the Comfort Zone mask absorbs more evenly; this layered approach reduces rough texture and makes waxing contact with cleaner skin. In San Antonio’s hot, humid summers, clients often appreciate the extra exfoliation before warm-weather events. Demand peaks in May, June and September when people prepare for outdoor plans and social functions.
Because the session blends multiple steps, it’s efficient to book as a single 80 MINUTES appointment at $125 rather than separate visits. The Hive Spa’s location near Loop 1604 and Highway 151 suits commuters from Stone Oak and northwest San Antonio seeking evening or weekend times. Many clients pair this treatment with shopping or outdoor plans nearby.
Preparing and aftercare guidance
Tell us about recent sun exposure, topical medications, or skin conditions when you book; that information helps estheticians choose exfoliation intensity and waxing approach. Avoid aggressive at-home exfoliants immediately before the session and arrive with clean skin free of thick lotions or oils so the steam, microdermabrasion and mask can work effectively.
After the service the skin may feel sensitive or warm as it recovers; this is normal and usually temporary. Your esthetician will give aftercare steps using Comfort Zone products and advise when to avoid heavy sun exposure or intense sweating. Follow those instructions to help the skin settle and maintain a smooth finish.
