What Are the Benefits of a Facial and How Often Should You Get One?

So you’ve never had a facial before. Maybe you think they’re too expensive, maybe you heard stories from friends with bad experiences, or maybe you think they’re just plain unnecessary for your skin. While those might seem like legitimate reasons for you to never get one, you’re actually missing out on one of the most beneficial treatments your skin will ever experience.

Think of it like this: your skin is the body’s largest organ. Like your other organs, you try and eat healthy and exercise to help prevent any harm from affecting them. So why not take preventative measures to help protect your skin? That’s exactly what a facial functions to do. If you’re still not convinced on why you should be booking an appointment right now with our qualified estheticians at the Beyondskin Med Spa, read below to see all the benefits getting a regular facial will do for your overall skin health.

Not all facials are the same, nor do they work to target the same skin concern. However, if you are looking for an extra deep clean, there are facials that will do just that! Overtime dirt, oil, and debris will build up on the skin and clog pores.

1) Facials Provide An Extra Deep Cleanse

Not all facials are the same, nor do they work to target the same skin concern. However, if you are looking for an extra deep clean, there are facials that will do just that! Overtime dirt, oil, and debris will build up on the skin and clog pores. This leads to an uneven skin complexion, the formation of pimples and breakouts, and an overall dull looking skin texture. A facial with extraction is the best way to clear your skin and leave it smooth and glowing. Extracting blackheads from the skin is a delicate matter and to prevent scarring, it should only be performed by a qualified esthetician.

What We Recommend: BeyondSkin Facial—A thorough deep cleansing treatment for your face and neck that will leave your skin with a healthy glow. $100 (60 min) $140 (90 min).

2) Facials Help To Reduce The Appearance of Wrinkles

Our estheticians will advise you on which highly effective skincare products will be best to use during your facial if you are looking to treat the appearance of wrinkles. During a facial that is targeting this specific skin concern, dead skin cells will be exfoliated, leaving a smoother skin surface to work with. From there, skincare products will be applied and massaged into the skin to help better absorption. During this treatment and regular routine follow-up sessions, your skin will actually rebuild collagen and leave your skin looking more youthful and smooth. If you want to prevent deep wrinkles from forming on your face in the future, regular facials can stop them from appearing on the skin in the first place. What We Recommend: Diamond Microdermabrasion Facial—With the use of high tech skincare products, a qualified esthetician is able to penetrate deep into the skin and help your skin rebuild collagen for an overall more youthful appearance. $75 (30 min) $130 (60 min).

3) Facials Help Treat Moderate To Severe Hyperpigmentation and Acne Scarring

If you suffer from unwanted discoloration or acne scars on your skin, a facial with a peel is highly recommended to even out the skin complexion. Unlike masques and peels you can buy in stores, facial peels performed here at the Beyondskin Med Spa are highly effective and potent and work to treat even the most stubborn skin imperfections. This treatment penetrates deeply into the skin and effectively exfoliates to even out the skin’s tone and texture.

What We Recommend: Rejevenize Peel—A superficial peel that works to penetrate the epidermis for enhanced exfoliation to treat moderate to severe skin damage. $295 (30 min).

4) Facials Help You Feel Confident And Relaxed

Nothing says confidence more than knowing you’re putting your best face forward (quite literally). When you go in for regular facial sessions, your skin is going to look abundantly healthier, brighter, and clear—and people will definitely notice! In addition, during your facial you’ll soon realize that they are just plain relaxing. Often times they are accompanied by a facial, neck, and arm massage (who doesn’t love those!)

Typically a good rule of thumb is to book a facial appointment every month. For some more aggressive treatments, time between each session can be a little longer up to 6 weeks. Your esthetician will know best and will always instruct you on how often you should be scheduling sessions. Get out there and experience the awesome benefits of a facial today!
