Do you know how often you need a facial? According to the American Academy of Dermatology, facial skin needs a minimum of one facial per month. That’s because skin is constantly shedding cells and dead skin cells produce oils that can contribute to acne. However, each person’s need for a facial may be different. So, it’s important to consult your service provider about your individual needs.
There are a few different ways to measure how often you need a facial: by the type of skin you have, the area of your face, or the symptoms you're experiencing. Facials can be tailored to meet your specific needs and can help to improve skin health and overall appearance. In this article we will discuss about the most important factor that is skin type.
Regular Facial
Facial skin care is important to maintain a healthy appearance. It consists of normally 5 basic steps cleansing, toning, moisturizing, masking and hydrating.
Cleansing
Facial cleansing is the process of removing dirt, oil, and other impurities from the face. This can be done with a variety of products, including facial cleansers, soaps, and even water. It is important part of regular facial treatment.
Toning
When it comes to facial treatments, toning is a key step that can help improve the overall appearance of skin. Toning helps to remove any residual makeup or dirt on the skin, and it also helps to tighten and tone the skin. This is important because toned skin looks healthier and more youthful.
Exfoliating
Exfoliating facial treatments remove the outermost layer of skin cells, also called the epidermis. This layer is often dry, rough, and scaly. Exfoliation helps improve the appearance of the skin by removing this layer of cells and revealing the smoother, more radiant skin below.
Masking
Masking is a technique used in facial treatments to improve the appearance of the skin. It involves using different type of mask according to your skin requirement to covers the entire face. The mask is left on for a specified amount of time, then removed and the skin is rinsed. We also offer our Hydrojelly mask that illuminates your skin and strengthens its elasticity. Overall masking can improve the appearance of the skin by removing impurities, soothing the skin, and providing hydration.
Hydrating
Hydrating helps improve the appearance of the skin by restoring the balance of water and oil, and by plumping up the skin to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This can be done through the use of a topical moisturizer. Hydration is important for overall skin health, as it helps to keep the skin barrier function healthy and prevents moisture loss. Additionally, hydrated skin looks healthier and younger.
Facial Treatment Frequency: depends on your skin type
Different people have different skin types, and that means some people need more frequent facial treatments than others. So here is our general recommendation according to your skin type.
Normal Skin
According to several skin care professionals, the full life cycle of skin cell growth lasts about three or four weeks. That's how long it takes for your skin to go from a fresh state, when new cells are being created, to the age where cells are dying off and creating wrinkles. So, it's important with normal skin type to have a facial every three or four weeks in order to keep your skin looking its best.
Dry Skin
Dry skin can be frustrating, but people with dry skin can usually get the most from a once-a-month facial. "People with dry skin need to exfoliate more and use more moisturizers," says Breanna, one of the best estheticians at our Spa. The goal is not to overdo it, but to give yourself a good scrub every month.
To get the best results, make sure to follow the facialist's instructions carefully. Use a moisturizer after the facial to help keep your skin hydrated.
Oily Skin
If you have skin that tends to develop blackheads, pimples, and clogged pores, you should receive a facial about every two weeks until it is clear, healthy and steady. Facials are the best way to clear your skin of these issues, as they use natural ingredients to help cleanse and calm the skin. They can also improve the look and texture of your skin by reducing wrinkles and fine lines.
Sensitive Skin
You might limit your facial treatments to once every two months if your skin is sensitive. Facialists understand that not everyone's skin is the same and will work with their clients to find the best routine for them. Different ingredients, pressure levels, and frequency of facials can all make a big difference for people with sensitive skin.
A facial treatment is a great way to improve your skin health. However, how often you need one depends on your individual skin type and needs. Speak to a skincare professional to determine the best schedule for you.
