WHAT IS A FACIAL TREATMENT?

Facials and Chemical Peels are one of the most popular skincare treatments the beauty industry. It is a multi-step heaven sent manual that generally takes an hour to perform.

A Chemical Peel is a professional skin-resurfacing procedure that enhances and smoothes the texture of the skin. It is an effective treatment for acne, wrinkles, and discolorations. They can be performed alone or combined with other cosmetic procedures, at different depths, from light (superficial chemical peel removes the outer layer of skin epidermis), medium (removes skin cells from the epidermis and from portions of the upper part of your middle layer of skin dermis) to deep (often performed by medical physicians but will offer more-dramatic results but also take longer to recover from).

It is a luxurious and easy way to do away with a stressful week that seriously affected your skin and boost your self esteem with beautifully glowing skin. If you want to take your skincare game up a notch, a monthly facial treatment will seriously take your skin and confidence to another level.

 HOW IT'S DONE

  • A facial is a multi-step treatment that packs a number of skincare activities into one beneficial process. It starts with steaming, which helps  opens pores. A cleanser to gently remove the dirt, sweat and oil off from the face. Exfoliation, to remove dead skin cells and help increase cell turnover, followed by extractions, which is blackhead and whitehead removal. Lastly, you are pampered with 15-20 minutes of a face masking session to give that extra boost of hydration and relax your skin.
  • Chemical Peels can be a bit more and straight to the point when addressing skin care concerns. You begin with cleansing and prepping the skin. Each layer of the Peel is applies based on the clients sensitivity. Peels usually don't exceed six layers, depending on the clients skin.

WHAT IS DERMAPLANING?

It's the best thing ever! Dermaplaning is a procedure that exfoliates your skin and gets rid of dirt and vellus hair better known as “peach fuzz.”With dermaplaning, they use a medical grade scalpel or a tool called a dermatome.The doctor or aesthetician moves the scalpel back and forth at a 45 degree angle to scrape off the top layer of dead skin. It’s different from dermabrasion, where an aesthetician or doctor uses a high-speed, rotating brush to exfoliate the skin.
