What is a medical-grade facial?
Many facials offer a relaxing experience in a salon or spa. A medical-grade facial is done by highly trained professionals with in-depth knowledge of all aspects of skin care.
The products used during a medical-grade facial are of the highest quality and are formulated to address your specific skin care needs. During the initial phase of your facial your practitioner assesses your skin.
A medical-grade facial can be customized for:
- Acne
- Aging skin
- Hyperpigmentation
- Dry skin
- Oily skin
- Dull skin tone
Incorporating medical-grade facials into your long-term skin care routine is a great way to keep your complexion looking its best.
What happens during a facial?
While a facial can be customized to suit your specific needs, there are elements that are common among almost all facials. If you are wearing makeup when you come in for your appointment, it’s removed at the beginning of your facial.
Cleansing comes next and works to remove all traces of makeup, sunscreen, and any excess oil or debris. Exfoliation is also part of the process. Physical exfoliants use mild abrasives to remove the outermost layer of dead skin, while chemical exfoliants use a chemical solution to do the same thing.
Masks or serums are usually part of a medical-grade facial. A facial massage helps products penetrate deeply and also boosts your circulation. Applying a moisturizer is usually the last step.
