Lymphatic facials in Calgary
A lymphatic facial uses gentle, rhythmic techniques to move lymphatic fluid through the face, neck and décolleté, reducing puffiness, encouraging circulation and enhancing the skin’s natural radiance. At BodyTox by Renu, licensed esthetician Aisha Mendes pairs lymphatic drainage with cleansing, exfoliation, sculpting massage and clean, high-performance skincare. Treatments run from a 30-minute Silk Express to the 90-minute Brazilian Lymphatic Drift.

Why a lymphatic facial rather than a traditional facial
Traditional facials work on the surface of the skin. Lymphatic facials work with the body’s drainage and circulatory systems beneath it. Our philosophy is that true beauty begins with balance: when the body’s internal flow is aligned, the skin naturally follows. Each treatment targets inflammation, fluid retention and sluggish circulation to restore vitality from the inside out.
- Reduced facial puffiness and congestion
- Improved circulation and a healthy, radiant glow
- Enhanced facial definition and a naturally sculpted appearance
- Brighter-looking skin
- Relaxation and nervous system support

The facial menu
Every treatment begins with a skin consultation, and every step is unhurried, even in thirty minutes.
- Silk & Soul Signature Lymphatic Facial (75 min): a personalized skin consultation melts into a grounding back massage, cleansing and exfoliation, gentle extractions, and flowing massage of the face, scalp, neck and décolleté. While a nourishing mask sets, a lower leg and foot massage carries you deeper into calm.
- Drift & Drain Signature Lymphatic Facial (60 min): a full upper-body lymphatic ritual, face, neck and décolleté, followed by a relaxing mini facial with cleansing, exfoliation, sculpting massage and cooling cryo gua sha to calm inflammation and define contours.
- Silk Express Facial (30 min): the Silk & Soul ritual, distilled. Lymphatic stimulation of the face and neck with skincare fundamentals, reducing puffiness and awakening your natural glow in a quiet pocket of a busy day.
- Brazilian Lymphatic Drift (90 min): BodyTox’s most complete ritual. A full-body Brazilian lymphatic drainage massage flows into upper-body lymphatic drainage and the Drift & Drain facial, with vacuum RF therapy to soften connective tissue and improve skin elasticity.

Client reviews
In their words
“Aisha’s lymphatic facial was the best treatment I have ever had (and I have had many). I have really bad issues with chronic migraines and walked in with one, but noticed it was gone halfway through. I left feeling the best I have felt in a very long time.”
Tara M.“I had the Drift and Drain lymph facial with Aisha, and I’ve never felt so at peace. The room was a true sanctuary, and her technique was so rhythmic that I drifted into a deep, calming state of rest. If you’re looking to treat yourself, this is the way to do it.”
