Reasons for Professional Facials by a Licensed Esthetician


1. Skin is analyzed by a trained and licensed professional. Studies show that 60% of people define their skin type and home care incorrectly. A licensed esthetician is trained in skin analysis to provide accurate information, create an appropriate treatment plan and make home care recommendations to enable you to meet your skin care goals.

2. Healthy, unbroken skin is the first defense against disease. Professional care for the face and hands - the areas most exposed to the environment - is a critical step to good health. Professional treatments of these areas provide a barrier to illness, a purposeful immunity, and a radiant, glowing ~YOU.~

3. Deep cleansing of the skin by a professional rids the skin of dirt, debris and environmental factors to allow your skin to maintain a healthy balance and enhance its ability to fight off disease and aging. It also enables the skin to better utilize the products applied for nourishment, protection and exfoliation.

4. Deeper penetration of products with professional equipment, techniques and products work to allow beneficial ingredients to penetrate deeper into the skin for greater results.

5. Professional facial massage dilates the vascular system, encouraging it to bring nutrients and moisture to the deeper layers of the skin and to remove waste and toxins produced during normal cell metabolism. This stimulation also brings a healthy glow to the skin that only a professional facial massage can produce.

6. Professional skin care products have higher percentage of performance ingredients than over the counter products. OTC products need to be benign enough for use by the “masses". Professional products are recommended by licensed professionals, not someone behind a counter who needs to meet their sales quota for the day.

7. Professional extractions are performed when needed. Acne and breakouts can be spread, and scarring caused, by picking. A professional is trained to perform this service when needed in the least invasive, safe, effective manner. The skin is prepped and extractions are done with optimal results and minimal discomfort.

8. Professional facial treatments can be relaxing and rejuvenating, a much needed prescription for our hectic daily and stress filled lives, especially since stress plays a role in many skin care and other physical disorders.
