What Are the Benefits of Facials?

Facials help you relax and restore your mind and body. They also provide numerous health benefits. They reduce fine lines and dark spots, and revive dull, dehydrated skin –so you can look and feel better about your skin. With the use of exfoliation, massage techniques, and antioxidant packed products, facials can even help reverse the signs of aging.

Before your treatment, your licensed Esthetician will ask you questions about your skin. You must be honest here; lying about your skin could cause an allergic reaction or worse! Let your Esthetician know what you want to achieve at your visit and what issues you’ve had. Perhaps you fancy the spa’s signature facial to help you relax or maybe you want a deep skin cleanse that only a facial can provide. Or do you want a facial that will focus on a specific issue like blemishes or anti-aging?

Whatever you choose, all facials have a few steps in common:

• Cleanse
• Exfoliate
• Steam
• Mask
• Tone
• Moisturize

A trained Esthetician will use astringents, masks or peels to help strip away dead skin cells and  reveal newer cells underneath. Some treatments, such as oxygen facials, are even said to help boost growth of new skin cells and soften the skin to eliminate fine lines, at least temporarily. This unique procedure involves infusing oxygen into the skin to increase hydration and circulation that can stimulate healing.

If you can’t get a full 8 hours of sleep every night (and who really can these days?) fake it with a rejuvenating and moisturizing facial. Oils like coconut, palm nut, and almond are all richly moisturizing and can help diminish fine lines. The surge of moisture will help you look like your younger more well-rested self.
