Benefits of Facial Home Care

3/1/2015

What are the benefits of weekly home facials?  Trying to fit in a weekly skin routine can be difficult in our crazy, busy lives, but taking 15 or 20 minutes per week can make a dramatic difference in our skin condition.  After having a professional skin consultation and facial, we give you our recommendations for a regular skin routine, including
in-office treatments and appropriate products.

Aside from a daily prescribed regimen, we recommend at-home exfoliation to remove surface dead skin cells, and smooth out the skin.  It is best to cleanse first, then proceed with the prescribed exfoliation product. Exfoliation enables active ingredients to penetrate the skin more effectively.  A treatment mask is then applied for 15 to 20 minutes.  Masks can vary in formula.  Most clay-based masks are designed to absorb excess oil, so a dry or dehydrated skin type would not benefit from this.  The majority of mass-produced masks are clay based.  Shy away if you tend to be dry or feel "tightness" in your skin.

Gel or cream-based masks are generally more desired for calming, hydrating, and moisturizing the skin.  These masks vary in ingredient content.  We recommend professional salon or spa product lines, like our "Uptown Face" line, as these tend to have a higher percentage of active ingredients for the most benefit.
