What is Facials & Skin Peels?

Facials and skin peels are popular skincare treatments designed to improve the appearance and health of the skin.

Facials involve a variety of techniques and products tailored to individual skin types and concerns. They typically include cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, massage, and the application of masks and serums. Facials aim to rejuvenate the skin, enhance hydration, and address specific issues like acne, dryness, or aging. They also promote relaxation and can be customized to target various skin concerns.

Skin peels, on the other hand, use chemical solutions to exfoliate the skin, removing dead cells from the surface. This process stimulates the regeneration of new, healthier skin. There are different types of peels, such as light peels, medium peels, and deep peels, each varying in intensity and depth. Skin peels are effective for reducing pigmentation, fine lines, and acne scars, and improving overall skin texture and tone.

Both treatments can be used in conjunction to achieve a comprehensive skincare regimen, enhancing the skin’s appearance and addressing a range of concerns.

Initial Consultation

During facials, the treatment involves multiple steps tailored to your skin type and concerns. The process typically begins with cleansing to remove impurities and makeup. Depending on the facial, it may include exfoliation to slough off dead skin cells, extractions to clear clogged pores, and a relaxing facial massage to stimulate circulation. Customized masks and serums are applied based on your skin’s needs, providing hydration, nourishment, or treatment for specific issues. The experience is generally soothing and rejuvenating, with sensations varying from gentle to invigorating depending on the techniques used.

For skin peels, the treatment involves the application of a chemical solution to the skin. This solution may cause a tingling or mild stinging sensation as it begins to work. The peel's depth and intensity depend on the type of peel chosen—light, medium, or deep. The process is relatively quick, typically lasting between 30 to 60 minutes, and is designed to exfoliate the outer layers of skin to stimulate renewal.

After Facial Skin Peels Treatment

Post-facial, the skin may appear slightly red or feel sensitive, but these effects usually subside within a few hours to a day. It's important to follow aftercare instructions, which may include avoiding heavy makeup, staying hydrated, and using gentle skincare products. Sunscreen is essential to protect the skin from UV damage and to maintain the results of the treatment.

After a skin peel, your skin may experience redness, peeling, or flaking as it sheds the outer layers. This is a normal part of the healing process and typically lasts from a few days to a week, depending on the peel’s intensity. During this period, it's crucial to avoid sun exposure and use a high SPF sunscreen. Avoid picking or peeling the skin, and follow up with recommended moisturizers to support healing and reduce dryness. Regular follow-up appointments may be needed to assess progress and plan further treatments if required.
