Skin Care Related Questions
How often should I have a facial?
We recommend a facial once a month or every 6 weeks because that is how long it takes the skin to
regenerate. Furthermore, we monitor your skin throughout the seasons and help you maintain a healthy
and glowing complexion. However, if you are experiencing over stress or menopause, your skin can be
unpredictable and breakout. Your esthetician may recommend more frequent visits until the problem is
under control.
Will I break out after a facial?
Breakouts rarely occur unless your skin is congested with blackheads or whiteheads underneath your
skin. If this is the circumstance, you might experience some breakouts, but be assured they won't last for
long.
At what age should I start receiving regular facials?
Your mid 20's to early 30's are ideal to maintain its healthy glow unless you begin to experience breakouts
at an earlier age. We believe in early skin care education as many teenagers suffer from problem skin
that is best addressed early on, having a visit to an esthetician can help treat and correct the problem.
Is there anything I can do to help my brown spots?
Hyper-pigmentation can occur after sun exposure, pregnancy or taking birth control pills. Yes, there are
many treatments available like peels along with home care regimenthat will help lighten your pigmentation.
What's the best way to prolong my facial?
It is recommended being diligent with your home care regimen like cleansing, exfoliating, moisturizing
and protecting. This will help your skin function properly and look its absolute best.
What benefits can I expect from using products that contain vitamin A or C?
These vitamins are the most effective age defying ingredients. They are very effective antioxidants that
help protect your skin against environmental pollutants that can damage your skin. Vitamin C aids in
collagen synthesis, restoring suppleness and skin clarity while Vitamin A increases elasticity and moisture
content.
