Back in the day, people thought that getting a facial was a luxury that only the rich and famous could afford. Nowadays, people realize that it’s a fundamental part of both skincare and wellness, and should be a part of your regular maintenance regime, even if there’s nothing “wrong” with your skin. In fact, the American Academy of Dermatologists recommends facials every four to six weeks to reduce wrinkles, eliminate blotchiness, treat sun spots, improve skin tone and improve acne.
Basically, facials are the ultimate in anti-aging treatments. The deep cleansing, exfoliation and hydration only a facial can provide rids the skin of dirt, debris and environmental factors to help your skin maintain a healthy balance and its ability to fight aging. Professional cleansing also enables deeper penetration of products and therefore better results. Research shows that getting a facial is even better than getting a good night’s rest since facials remove toxins and dirt accumulated over time—though we definitely recommend getting both!
An additional benefit of receiving professional facials is that the massage performed dilates the vascular system, which helps to eliminate toxins and encourages the absorption of nutrients and moisture to the deeper layers of the skin—and it gives your skin a healthy glow that’s to die for. In addition, the massage makes you feel better and the knowledge that you are taking care of your skin improves your overall wellness.
Start scheduling facials regularly for your skin’s health. Think of these treatments in the same way you do your regular doctor and dentist appointments. Facials are a great investment, as your skin will appear more toned, radiant and healthy for four to six weeks.
