For years, your face has bore the brunt of sun exposure, makeup residue, teenage breakouts, and more. Over time, you may discover that it doesn’t appear as bright and youthful as it once was, causing you to feel disheartened. What you might not realize is that with a facial treatment, you can embrace a fully cleansed, vibrant, and more rejuvenated appearance. If you are interested in learning more, discover what to expect during a facial as well as its many benefits.
What Happens During a Facial?
Each skincare specialist and practice is different, but a normal facial includes several steps that include cleansing, exfoliating, extraction, massage, and a mask. How each step is performed is largely based on the type of facial you receive.
The goal, however, is to cleanse and treat your facial skin so that it looks and feels healthier.
After an initial consultation with a professional to determine the type of products that should be used and areas that needs special care, you will receive:
- Thorough cleansing to remove makeup and debris
- A complete exfoliation to remove any dead skin cells
- Treatment to clear your pores that may be clogged
- A facial massage to help encourage the elimination of fluid that can build up between the cells in your face and upper body
- A facial mask to complete the process
Are There Different Treatments Available?
Yes, there are different types of facials available, so depending on your skincare needs, you can expect your skin care specialist or physician to recommend one of the following options:
- An express facial, which only lasts 30 minutes but is highly effective
- A jelly mask that takes just 45 minutes to complete and includes a hydrogel mask to help hydrate your skin
- An acne facial that is 60 minutes and targets areas of clogged pores and severe acne
- A BOTOX facial that incorporates injections to smooth out wrinkles and fine lines
- An aquagold facial that injects BOTOX, vitamins, and hyaluronic acid into the skin to improve the look and health of your facial skin
- A HydraFacial is a process of treating clogged pores and damaged skin before incorporating solutions to revitalize your face
What Are the Benefits of a Facial?
Apart from the fact that receiving a facial is an incredibly relaxing experience, there are other immense benefits you can expect, such as:
- The ability to enjoy a more rejuvenated and youthful aesthetic
- Cleansed skin that is free of clogged pores and debris that cause dryness and unevenness
- The minimization of wrinkles and fine lines
- Added hydration to what is otherwise dry skin
- Improved circulation throughout the facial skin
- Greater confidence because of your healthier, glowing appearance
If you’re looking for a way to spend some time focused on self-care, you can’t go wrong in choosing to undergo a facial. In doing so, you’ll feel like a new person the moment your treatment is complete.
