Exfoliation

Your skin is your body’s largest organ, and it is constantly regenerating. But as your body sheds dead skin cells and produces new ones, the dead cells tend to sit on the surface. This can cause clogged pores and other issues. A facial can remove these cells and leave you feeling refreshed.

Blemish Control

Facials can reduce the appearance of acne and acne scars, leaving your skin with a smoother appearance. If this is your main concern, be sure to tell your facialist. This way, they can curate a treatment for your skin.

Stress Relief

As with massages and other spa treatments, facials are simply relaxing. You get to lean back and let your mind drift as someone else pampers you. And then you can carry this feeling with you as you walk out the door.

Anti-Aging

By taking care of your skin, you can reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, sun spots, and other signs of aging. Specific facials can introduce essential nutrients into your skin to keep it feeling young and hydrated.

Facial Circulation

When your skin is experiencing proper blood flow, you look more awake and healthy. A facial can stimulate the blood vessels under your skin, creating this glow. By scheduling regular facials, you can sustain this blood flow.
