Consider the following scenario: cucumber slices over your eyes, calming classical music playing in the background, and a dim ambient glow in the room. On the inside, a day at the spa may leave you feeling rested and revitalised, while on the outside, you can seem fresh-faced and beaming. While at-home face cleansing and exfoliating is always a good idea, the benefits of a true spa facial can’t always be surpassed. Here are a few examples of how the professional version outperforms the DIY version.
Pores that are clear
You’ll never be able to extract all of the blackheads, whiteheads, dirt, and oil that have accumulated in the months (or years!) since your previous facial, no matter how long you poke and prod at your pores in front of the bathroom mirror.
Exfoliating your face with Skin Renewal Professional removes not just some, but all of the bacteria, dirt, and dead skin cells that can dull the glow below. By removing these particles, their capacity to clog pores is reduced as well. Just make sure to tell them if you have any skin sensitivity so they don’t use the wrong substances.
Skin that absorbs
The newest layer of skin will be brought to the surface after facial exfoliation. This layer of skin will absorb more water, resulting in increased hydration. Any product you use in the days after your facial will have an amplified effect, so make sure to hydrate and apply your other favourite facial products meticulously throughout this period.
Boost Collagen Production, Plump Your Skin, and Reduce Fine Lines for a Youthful, Shining Face Chemical peels or brightening masks may be used during your spa facial, and these are packed with age-fighting antioxidants that can boost collagen production, plump your skin, and reduce fine lines for a youthful, shining face.
Circulation is improved.
Spa facials can help to improve and restore facial circulation. This enhances the passage of oxygen-rich blood to skin cells, resulting in plump, radiant, wrinkle-free skin.
Detoxification
Some facials, such as the galvanic facial, can even rid your face of toxins and pollutants. A tiny device pushes a low-voltage current into the skin via a pre-applied conductive gel in the galvanic facial. Toxins are encapsulated by negatively charged ions, which are then drawn from the skin by a positive charge.
Relaxation & Rest
Even if you believe you have the at-home facial down to a science, the convenience of not having to lift a finger can’t be surpassed. An afternoon at a spa may be soothing, tranquil, and stress-relieving, and it could be the key to finding the peace of mind you’ve been looking for.
Expert tip: Because redness and irritation might appear right after a facial, schedule your appointment a few days ahead of time if you have a large event coming up.
