Are facial treatments good for your skin?

Facials are best performed in series and should be done every four to six weeks to achieve maximum efficacy and consistent effects. Four to six weeks is how long the skin cell growth and exfoliation process takes, and getting a facial helps that process along, keeping your skin clean and clear.

Getting a monthly facial every month might not meet your budget or fit your schedule. If you can’t get a facial every three or four weeks, try to come in at least once a season. The chilly winter months can dry out your skin, while the blazing summer heat can lead to sun damage and breakouts.

Are facial treatments actually good for your skin? Even if you don’t suffer from hyperpigmentation or acne, your skin can benefit from being pampered through a facial treatment that can keep it healthy, glowing and free from future issues. In addition, receiving a facial treatment from a professional will help you to gain a deeper understanding of your skin. Plus, who can deny the de-stressing and relaxing side-effects that come from getting a facial treatment?

FACIAL TREATMENTS ARE BENEFICIAL, EVEN FOR THOSE WITHOUT A SKIN COMPLAINT

Facials will cleanse your skin from pollutants, which will help to rejuvenate it and improve its texture and tone. Also, these treatments increase the blood flow to the face, which translates to healthier cells; After all, improved blood circulation means more oxygen and nutrients. Skin will appear to be glowing, smooth, healthy, dewy and hydrated.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF FACIAL TREATMENTS

There are many different types of facial treatments available at Skin Moment Esthetics.

Microdermabrasion

This type of facial is ideal for anyone looking to remove age spots and light acne scarring. Microdermabrasion buffs away the top layers of your skin, which results in the reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, blemishes, age spots, blackheads and enlarged pores, just to mention a few of its benefits. Your skin may be a little red and irritated after the treatment, but ultimately, you will benefit from refreshed, youthful and glowing skin. This treatment may sometimes leave stripes or red lines that resemble fine scratches. This is temporary and is related to skin sensitivity. After your treatment, you can apply makeup, wear sunscreen, and resume normal activities, though it’s essential to protect your skin with sunscreen due to increased photosensitivity from exfoliation. No special products are required before microdermabrasion, but avoid retinols and glycolic acids for 48-72 hours before and after your session. This treatment is suitable for all skin types except those with rosacea.

Chemical Peels

These types of facials are typically used as anti-aging treatments to rejuvenate the complexion. This is done by correcting skin texture irregularities and to even the skin tone. The chemical peels come in varying degrees of strength and use different type of acid in their chemical solution.
