Facials are not just an indulgence at the spa. Teens and adults, women and men, all benefit from having a professional facial done regularly. Here’s why:
1. Maximize the effects of the skin care products you are already using
A ruddy complexion and clogged pores work against even the best skin care efforts. High quality creams, lotions and potions won’t be as effective if your skin is distressed from excess dryness (think desert environment), uneven tone or free-radical damage. Regular facials can maintain smooth skin and refine pores which allows your skin care products to absorb properly and so what it really should be doing.
2. Extraction for clean and clear pores
Poorly extracted skin (think “picking pimples”) is the reason so many people have facial scarring, broken capillaries and acne flare-ups. Professional extraction is a delicate procedure done hygienically and carefully. If you regularly “de-gunk” your pores, your skin will look healthier and suffer frequent less breakouts. A trained aesthetician is the BEST person for the job!
3. Seasonal skin changes
With a new season approaching its time to change your routine. Our skin follows the same seasonal patterns along with nature! It has different needs based on the exposure to sunlight, humidity levels and, of course, temperature! As fall and winter approach, a super hydrating facial will work to sooth sun damaged skin. Getting a facial in the spring (think spring cleaning) will nourish and revitalize dull, post-winter skin.
4. Masks and peels for a healthy complexion
We all have good intentions for great skin care! Cabinets and drawers full of products that we purchase and “swear” we’ll use regularly but we forget that weekly mask and to use that exfoliator. A facial lets you get professional help! A professional mask can calm, decongest or hydrate your skin. Investing in your skin with a regular facial will also help remind you to up your regular routine at home.
5. Learn the latest treatments and techniques
A trained aesthetician has the latest knowledge about the best available treatments, products and regimens. You may think you have dry skin, or sensitive skin but a professional assessment and recommendation for the best care plan is always best!
