About FACECO

FACECO is a philosophy of gentle, confident beauty rooted in science, anatomy, and emotional balance. We believe every face is naturally beautiful — tension simply hides what’s already there.

Our role is to help you release what’s holding your face back, so your true glow can surface again.
A FACECO session is more than a treatment — it’s a wellness ritual, a return to your natural state, and a step toward a healthier relationship with yourself.

Meet the Founder — Polina Nikolaeva

FACECO founder Polina
Dermatologist Facial | Wellness Expert | Creator of The Face Method™.

Polina, the founder of FACECO, is a trained dermatologist with deep expertise in facial anatomy, skin health, and natural rejuvenation. Her career began with a commitment to preservation and holistic well-being — long before natural beauty became an industry movement.

While working in clinical dermatology, Polina witnessed the unintended consequences of aggressive procedures and synthetic skincare trends. She saw how invasive methods often mask problems rather than solve them, creating dependency and damaging the skin’s natural balance.

Driven by curiosity and a scientific mindset, she immersed herself in studying skincare ingredients and formulations, discovering that high price and branding often do not equal quality. Many “luxury” products were ineffective, while simple, clean ingredients supported the skin more effectively.

As she worked hands-on with clients, Polina noticed patterns: chronic stress, emotional holding, poor posture, and lifestyle habits cause deep facial tension. This tension creates dullness, asymmetry, premature aging, and discomfort.

She discovered that targeted facial massage, when performed with anatomical precision, could address these root causes more effectively than invasive methods.

The Face Method™

Our Signature Technique

FACECO’s signature method, The Face Method™, is a comprehensive approach to sculpting and tension release, blending medical knowledge with intuitive precision.

The method works through:
Buccal (intraoral) massage to reach deep, often-unused muscles
Myofascial release to soften tightness and asymmetry
Lymphatic drainage to reduce puffiness and encourage detoxification
Sculpting movements to refine natural contours
Deep muscular relaxation to support TMJ relief
Gentle emotional release, helping the face “let go”

It’s a technique that brings circulation, mobility, and harmony back to the face — creating results that feel natural, look subtle, and last.

Our Philosophy

At FACECO, we believe true beauty comes from balance and ease. We work gently on all layers of the face — muscles, fascia, lymphatics, and skin — to release tension and restore natural harmony. Our approach blends science with mindful touch, helping your face feel softer, lighter, and more open, without force or invasive methods.
