Why are facials an essential part of skin care?

Many people only think about the relaxation aspects of professional facials. They might only treat themselves to facials while on vacation or for a special event. In reality, medical-grade facials should be part of your ongoing skin care routine, as they deliver a number of benefits. 

Some of the benefits that facials can provide include:

• Clearing clogged pores
• Boosting facial circulation
• Exfoliating dead skin and debris
• Balancing moisture
• Reducing fine lines and wrinkles
• Soothing acne and preventing future outbreaks
• Brightening skin

Facials also provide unsurpassed deep cleansing of your skin.

While you can support these goals at home by using top-quality skin care products, a professional facial goes beyond self-care to deliver clinical results. 

What happens during facials?

Facials are highly personalized and begin with a quick skin assessment and review of your skin health needs and goals. Your practitioner then selects the products best suited for your skin, as well as the techniques they’ll use during your visit. 

Cleansing is always part of the process, and there are product options formulated to meet every set of skin health needs. You might receive a double cleansing to remove all traces of excess oil, makeup, and debris. 

Exfoliation is often part of professional facials. Some exfoliants rely on mildly abrasive products like scrubs to physically remove a layer of dead skin cells and impurities, while other exfoliants use a chemical solution to create those effects. 

Masks and serums deliver powerful ingredients that address specific skin needs. Some are incredibly hydrating, while others seek to balance excess oil production. 

Moisturizing is always part of the process, even for those with oily or sensitive skin. Your practitioner chooses a formulation that delivers deep hydration.  

How often should I come in for facials?

Everyone can benefit from professional facials, but your skin needs are unique. During your initial visit, your practitioner will advise you on the best schedule for your needs. 

Once you experience the benefits of professional facials, you’ll want to make these sessions part of your ongoing skin care routines. Call the office today to book your visit, or spend a few moments on the online scheduling page.
