For many people, a spa treatment is a perfect way to relax and unwind. It’s not only good for your skin but can also be therapeutic! Facials are one of the most popular treatments for healthy, radiant skin and typically include a pre-treatment assessment, cleanse, exfoliation, massage and mask.

Why should we care about keeping our skin healthy? Essentially, the skin needs protection because it’s very delicate and without proper care, the skin could start changing or even losing its shape over time – that would not look good at all! Facials are a great way to keep your skin healthy in one of the most featured aspects of your appearance – your face.

 

Why do People Love Facials?

There are many reasons why people love facials. For one, they make your skin soft and smooth! You can also get rid of pesky zits or blackheads without over-the-top acne treatment that causes scarring. And lastly but certainly not LEAST important: The fact there won’t be any residue from harsh chemicals means you’ll feel cleaner afterward which everyone knows how much we all value that refreshing, radiant, clean appearance. 

Not convinced, check out our top 7 reasons we’ve heard to get a facial.

 

1. Gives Your Skin a Deep Cleaning.

The most important thing to remember about your skin is that it’s a living tissue. Regular facials will help keep the bacteria level in check, which means you’ll have a clearer-looking and smoother-feeling face all year long! 

    2. Reduce the Appearance of Fine Lines andWrinkles.

There’s no better time than now to start improving your complexion with a routine facial. The right skincare habits will not only help you maintain youthfulness, but also improve all of those fine lines and wrinkles that come with natural age. A professional face-to-face massage can do wonders for tired skin.

    3. Help Even Out Skin Tone

Sun exposure and hormonal changes can cause an excess of pigmentation that can leave  unwanted dark spots or patches on the skin . With the correct products, a facial can correct uneven skin tone and reduce dark spots, leaving you with smoother, brighter looking skin.

   4. Exfoliates Your Skin

Exfoliation is the process of removing dead skin cells from your body. When these cells build up, they prevent our natural oils from rising to the surface. This can leave skin looking rough and dry. Exfoliation removes this layer, allowing natural oils to rise to the sufa 

   5. Improve the Appearance of Acne Scars

When indicated, an aesthetician can use products containing salicylic acid to reduce the scarring from acne or chicken pox. While very effective for treating this scarring, salicylic acid can also lighten skin, making this a treatment that is best left to professionals.

   6. Reduce the Appearance of Pore Size.

What’s worse than acne? Without the proper care, your skin will become even more sensitive to pollution and damage caused by day-to-day living. A professional aesthetician uses steam during a facial procedure to open up pores clogged with dead cells thus preventing future breakouts and removing any dirt or makeup that may have accumulated over time.

 

   7. A Facial Can Help Relax You and Promote a Sense of Well-Being.

The benefits of a facial are endless. You’ll feel relaxed and more importantly, your skin be feeling more nourished with an improvement in elasticity for longer periods than ever before.

 

Anyone and everyone is a candidate for a facial, including teens. This is particularly the case if you are dealing with breakouts due to excess oil, lack of hydration, or other environmental issues. Facials are an extremely popular way to de-stress and promote healthier skin. Book a facial with Elan today.
