The 4 Benefits of a Facial

You may have a skincare regimen that you follow for healthy, youthful looking skin, but every once in awhile your skin needs a little extra TLC from a professional to get it looking squeaky clean and address any issues you are having. 

A regular facial might sound like a superfluous way to spend your money, but think about it for a second: Simply washing and drying your hair each day isn't going to make it look its best. You're still going to need to schedule a salon visit for a cut every six weeks to keep your hair looking healthy.

Your skin, especially your face, is exposed to so many toxins and dirt throughout the day. Daily cleansers are great, but they're not going to get deep beneath the surface like you need. 

Here are four benefits of getting a regular facial. (Trust us, your skin will thank you!)

1. Facials are Deep Cleansing

Your skin goes through a lot every day. Smog, dust, toxins, and chemicals fill the air and wreak havoc on your skin. Daily cleansers are one way to combat all of the bacteria that's piled up on your face, but getting a deep cleanse is a job for the pros.  

2. Facials are Anti-Aging

No one wants to think about how their skin is going to age, but facials are a way to help slow down the aging process. They can reduce the appearance of wrinkles because they increase blood circulation and oxygen flow, which promotes collagen production and increases the elasticity of your skin, thus making it look more bouncy and youthful. It's never too early to start taking proper care of your skin, so don't think you're too young to be partaking in regular facials! 

3. Facials are Relaxing

The best reason to get a facial is because they are very relaxing. At the end of a long week, there's really nothing better than to sit in a quiet room and have a professional massage your face and slather on lotions and oils that promote healthy skin and smell great. Plus, the boost in circulation on your skin will make it look glowing and healthy. 

4. Facials Help Treat and Heal Your Skin

It seems like no matter how old we get, there is always going to be an issue with our skin every so often. A regular facial will help treat and heal your skin issues like blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, sunspots, acne, inflammation, rosacea, dehydration, acne scarring, and loss of elasticity. If you keep having the same skin issues pop up, a facial might be a good solution to helping you on the way to clearer, healthier skin.
