What are the Benefits of Facials?

Find out how a facial could improve the appearance and health of your skin.

Getting a facial often seems like a luxurious and pampering experience; however, did you also know that getting a facial could actually improve your skin? That’s right; there are a variety of facials out there that cater to our patients’ unique needs and concerns. When you turn to a medspa, you’ll get tailored facials that meet your specific skincare goals and needs. Here are just some of the incredible benefits of getting a facial (or regular facials),

Cleanse, Exfoliate and Brighten

One of the most significant benefits of getting a facial is giving your skin the deep cleaning and exfoliation it needs. Many people don’t exfoliate regularly, which leaves dead skin accumulating on your skin's surface. You can reduce buildup and improve your skin’s radiance by exfoliating weekly. After all, proper hydration not only boosts your skin’s complexion but can also help you look younger.

Improve Acne and Breakouts

Did you know that a facial could also target and treat breakouts? If you are dealing with acne-prone skin, our skin doctor can customize a facial to meet your specific skincare needs. These facials usually use certain acne-fighting ingredients, such as salicylic acid or alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), which can help heal current breakouts more quickly while preventing future acne. During your facial, we will also examine your skin under a light to perform simple extractions to remove whiteheads and blackheads safely and effectively (remember, you shouldn’t pop pimples or pick at your skin. Leave the extractions to the pros).

Reduce Signs of Aging

Many facials are designed to improve the appearance and youthfulness of your skin. During these facials, specific anti-aging ingredients such as hyaluronic acid are used to plump up the skin and reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. Getting these facials regularly can also be a great preventive measure for younger patients who want to keep their skin looking young and healthy.

Whether you want to improve acne-prone skin, smooth away lines and wrinkles, or want to pamper yourself, a facial from a medspa could provide you with excellent results.
