The face is the most frequently exposed part of the human body. On average, we touch our faces anywhere from 2,000 to 3,000 times per day.
Pores are tiny openings in the surface of our skin that are easily clogged with dead skin, makeup, and dust or pollution. Facial treatments serve to cleanse the skin on the face, leaving it fresh and healthy.
There are many benefits, both psychological and physical, to getting a facial treatment.
Exfoliation
This is the process of removing dead skin cells from the face by using either a tool, like a brush or sponge, or a chemical, like glycolic or lactic acid. Exfoliation allows your pores to breathe and makes your skin more absorbent—something especially useful for those wishing to use serums or creams on the face.
Exfoliation also helps smooth the surface of your skin, making it easier to apply makeup.
Acne Removal and Reduction
“Extraction” or, the removal of acne, is part of the facial treatment process. Estheticians are professionally trained to remove acne in a way that will prevent blemishes or scarring.
Not only does this help clear the skin, but it also has a positive psychological impact on the client.
Reparation of Sensitive Skin
For people with extra dry skin or rosacea, a common skin disease causing redness on the nose and cheeks, facial treatments can reduce redness and help repair and rejuvenate damaged skin cells.
Estheticians are knowledgeable about skin diseases, and can adapt their treatment to what best suits your type of skin.
Improved Blood Circulation
Generally, increased blood circulation in the face occurs during aerobic exercise, periods of increased heartrate, or in moments of intense emotion.
Most facial treatments include a gentle massage, which promotes healthy, glowing skin and keeps wrinkles at bay.
Instant Satisfaction
Unlike some services, the effects of a facial treatment are immediate. Your radiant, shiny, glowing skin
will last anywhere from two to four days. Depending on how you maintain it, the effects of a facial treatment can last much longer.
If you are looking for a quick-fix procedure, or a way to spruce up before a big event, facial treatments are a great option.
Relaxation
Have you ever gotten a haircut and fallen asleep as the hair dresser massaged your scalp? Facials have a similar effect.
With gentle strokes from their thumbs and the tips of their fingers, estheticians massage the forehead, cheeks, chin, and the sides of the face.
You may never need a full body massage again after the magical effects of a facial massage.
