Hydrating & Anti-Aging Facial Massage in Amsterdam

A hydrating, anti-aging facial with a sculpting face massage, in one session. Plumper, softer, glowing skin. Exclusively for women, on the Keizersgracht in Amsterdam.

Exclusively for women

Hydrating Facial Exclusively for Women

Your skin tells me a lot before I even begin. Tight, dull, tired or puffy, I read it first, then I build your facial around what I see.

This is not a quick facial with a few strokes in between. It’s a real face massage: lymphatic techniques to drain and depuff, and acupressure with my hands to wake up tone and circulation.

Then comes the hydration. A collagen mask, peptide and hyaluronic acid serums, and an intensive hydrating mask, layer by layer, until your skin drinks it all in.

You leave with a face that looks rested and feels soft, plump and light.

Want more time? The 90-minute session gives you a longer, slower massage and longer masks.

Available exclusively for women, at my private studio on the Keizersgracht in Amsterdam city center.

Hydrating Facial Benefits

What Are The Benefits Of A Hydrating & Anti-Aging Facial Massage?

A hydrating facial isn't just pampering. Face massage with acupressure and hyaluronic acid produce measurable changes in your skin and your mood. Here's what research shows about what happens during and after a session.

❖

Deeper Skin Hydration

In a clinical study, a hyaluronic acid serum increased skin hydration by 55%, with visibly plumper, smoother skin and excellent tolerability across skin types.

In practice: skin that feels soft, plump and comfortable.

↑

More Elastic, Firmer-Looking Skin

A study of women aged 30 to 50 found that 20 minutes of facial massage with finger kneading and acupressure improved facial skin elasticity by around 10%.

In practice: a face that looks more toned and rested.

☀

A Natural, Healthy Glow

The same study measured a clear increase in facial blood flow and skin temperature after the massage, and 95% of the women reported high satisfaction.

In practice: warmer, brighter skin when you leave.

☾

Less Stress, Softer Expression

A study of 32 healthy women found that a 45-minute facial massage significantly reduced anxiety and negative mood.

In practice: you feel lighter, and your face shows it.

What Does Your Hydrating & Anti-Aging Facial Massage Include

Every hydrating facial I give women in Amsterdam follows a five-star spa protocol, but never a script. I read your skin first, then I choose the pressure, the products and the timing for what your face needs that day.

Step 1

Skin Reading & Check-In

We talk about your skin, your routine and any allergies. I look at texture, hydration and where you hold tension in your face and jaw.

Step 2

Oil Cleanse & Makeup Removal

A silky cleansing oil melts away makeup, sunscreen and the day, gently, even around your eyes.

Step 3

Gentle Exfoliation

A light exfoliation refines your skin's surface, so every product that follows is absorbed more deeply.

Step 4

Rice Toner

A soothing rice toner with ceramides balances your skin and prepares it for the massage.

Step 5

Sculpting Face Massage

The heart of the session: lymphatic strokes to depuff, and acupressure on your face, jaw and neck. 20 minutes, or 35 to 45 in the 90-minute session.

Step 6

Warm Towel Reset

Warm towels lift away the massage oil and leave your skin clean and receptive for the masks.

Step 7

Collagen Mask & Scalp Massage

A collagen mask restores comfort and softness while I massage your scalp and temples.

Step 8

Peptide & Hyaluronic Serums

Two serums, layered one by one: peptides for firmness and radiance, hyaluronic acid with ceramides for deep hydration.

Step 9

Intensive Hydration Mask

A professional hydrating mask seals everything in, with a slow hand massage while it works.

Step 10

Finishing Touch & Aftercare

A finishing cream, a few quiet moments, and simple tips to keep your skin hydrated at home.

Stop Wasting Money on Facials That Ignore Your Tension

I'm a massage therapist, and I book facials too. I know how it feels to pay for a hydrating facial in Amsterdam, hoping to finally release your face, and spend half of it alone under a mask.

Have you ever had a facial like this?

  • ✕You spent most of your facial alone under a mask.
  • ✕The "facial massage" lasted five minutes.
  • ✕You left with your jaw and the space between your brows just as tight.
  • ✕Nobody asked about allergies, retinol or recent treatments.
  • ✕The session ended with a sales pitch for creams.

You can avoid all of this with me

  • ✓Your jaw, brows and lymph. I release the tension in your jaw and between your brows, and use lymphatic strokes to ease puffiness.
  • ✓A real face massage. Around 20 minutes of sculpting massage, and up to 45 in the 90-minute session.
  • ✓Never alone. While your masks work, I massage your scalp and hands.
  • ✓I read your skin first. Then I choose the products and pressure your skin needs that day.
  • ✓No sales pitch, no miracle promises. I'm here to release your tension, not to sell you creams.

Buy cheap, pay twice.

Stop wasting your money. Paying cheap often means paying twice.

I went in with tired, swollen feet after a week of walking around the city and booked a reflexology massage on impulse. She worked every point without ever rushing, and I could feel the tension leaving with each breath. Best part? I slept through the whole night after, which never happens to me. Worth every minute!!

One of the best neck and shoulder massages I ever received! I came in with muscles that felt like cement, and left with my upper body feeling nice and loose like jello :) I really appreciate that she took all her time and skills to work through all my knots, and and really help to relieve the tightness. Thank you so much!

It was my first time at Dracel's studio. The massage brought me relief and was pleasant. She is a very attentive professional who focused on exactly what I needed. She also explained what might have caused my shoulder blade pain and gave me advice on how to prevent further back pain. The studio is also very beautiful and relaxing. I recommend it!

Amazing! I expected just a relaxing massage, but it felt more like a therapeutic treatment. She focused on the areas that really needed attention—my back, shoulders, and jaw. After the session, I felt such a huge difference. My body was so much more relaxed, my shoulders felt lighter, and even my jaw tension improved. I also really appreciated that she's sending me exercises to help improve my posture. Dracel is skilled, caring, and truly wants to help you feel better. Highly recommend!

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

−

What's the difference between a facial and a facial massage?

A facial cares for your skin: cleansing, masks and serums. A facial massage works on the muscles and tension underneath. My Hydrating & Anti-Aging Facial Massage gives you both in one session: a full hydrating facial plus real face massage with lymphatic techniques and acupressure.

+

What's the difference between the 60 and 90-minute facial?

The steps are the same. In the 90-minute session, your face massage lasts 35 to 45 minutes instead of 20, the pace is slower, and the masks stay on longer. It's the choice for deeper relaxation and more jaw and neck work. 60 min is € 115, 90 min is € 165.

+

Will this facial remove wrinkles?

No facial removes wrinkles. What this facial does is hydrate, relax tense facial muscles and boost circulation, so fine lines look softer and your face looks more rested and toned. Monthly sessions help keep that effect going.

+

Do you do extractions?

No. This is a massage-based facial. I focus on cleansing, muscle tension, circulation and deep hydration, not on squeezing pores.

+

Can I have a facial if I'm pregnant?

No, I don't offer treatments to pregnant women, at any stage of pregnancy. My treatment beds aren't designed for the positioning pregnancy requires. I'd recommend a studio that specializes in prenatal care instead.

+

Can I come with makeup on, and wear it afterward?

Yes, come as you are. I remove your makeup gently at the start. Afterward, I recommend skipping makeup until the next day so your skin keeps absorbing the serums.

+

How often should I have a hydrating facial?

Once a month works well for most women, roughly in step with your skin's natural renewal cycle. Before a special event, book a few days ahead so your skin looks its best on the day.

+

What is your cancellation policy for facial appointments?

Payment is always made before your session. From the Netherlands, you can pay by Tikkie or bank transfer; from abroad, by bank transfer only. I send you the details on WhatsApp when I confirm your booking. If you cancel 24 hours or more before your session, I refund your payment. With less than 24 hours' notice, even by a few minutes, I can't refund it, for any reason, because your room is already reserved for you. If you arrive late, I always try to add the lost minutes at no extra cost. If I have another client right after you, the late minutes come off your session time.
