Dear Cathy, What exactly is a medical facial? I’ve seen advertising for them, but have no idea what it is or what makes it different from a regular facial. – Beth in Newhall
Dear Beth, Medical facials focus on results rather than relaxation; they give extra attention to serious skin problems and concentrate on deep exfoliation to renew the surface of the skin. Typically, the skin renews itself every four to six weeks. However as we age, our skin cell turnover rate slows down, which can result in dull lackluster skin, wrinkling, pigmentation, thin skin and even acne. With our medical-grade facial, physical (microdermabrasion) and chemical forms (glycolic) of exfoliation are utilized, which allows the natural sloughing of dead skin cells to occur at a quicker pace, resulting in more beautiful skin. We customize the facial around your skincare needs. Starting with a deep pore cleansing, then we apply a light Glycolic Peel to loosen the dead skin cells. Next we do a Microdermabrasion treatment, using our diamond tip wand to sweep away the dead skin cells. We steam, do extractions, and then apply a soothing Mask, finishing with appropriate Toner, Moisturizer with Sunscreen. Not only will your skin look immediately brighter, tighter and more plump these medical facials will also improve the long-term health of it too! See our special for just $99 in our ad on this page. We look forward to taking care of all your skin care needs and pampering you soon.
