getting regular facials is important, here's why

May 12

Our skin is the largest organ of our bodies and yet—often the most neglected.

Many people will wait for a skin concern to prevail before visiting an Esthetician for guidance. While this approach isn't wrong, a recurring facial treatment plan that is supplemented by a proper home care routine will help combat skin concerns (acne, dry skin, hyperpigmentation, scarring) before they arise.

Several skincare products are available on the market, but without proper guidance and research, many of us tend to overwhelm our skin by not using the right mix of treatments and products.

Your skin journey doesn't have to feel lonely and defeating. Letting a professional guide you toward the right path will ease your mind and save you money, as you let go of the wrong products and invest in the right treatments.

Your skin is constantly changing as it regenerates itself every 27 days. To put it simply, during this process, cells in the upper (superficial) layers of the skin replace themselves with new ones. A consistent and effective skin care routine can help support your skin during this crucial renewal process.

Here are some reasons why you should book a facial with Savasana Beauty Bar:

Receive a free skin consultation with a professional esthetician who will cater to your skin's needs with facial treatments and product suggestions for your at-home skincare routine. Investing in your skin can be challenging (and expensive), which is why this allows you to maintain the results of your facial at home.

Undergo professional treatments, which include physical (microdermabrasion) and chemical (acids and enzymes) exfoliation. Deep exfoliation helps jump start cell turnover, allows for deeper product penetration and encourages the growth of new, healthy cells.

At-home extractions encourage the spread of bacteria, which seeps into the surrounding tissue and risks the likelihood of scarring or infection. This is a no-no. Your esthetician will adequately prepare the skin and gently extract clogged pores, blackheads, and impurities—some of which aren't even visible to you! Using the proper methods and products, extractions done professionally will not harm your skin, but instead help it glow.

Every treatment includes a facial massage. Think of this massage as a workout for your facial muscles that promotes collagen production, prevents premature ageing, wrinkles, fine lines and sagging. Facial massages regenerate the skin's function by stimulating lymphatic drainage, relieving muscle tension, boosting blood circulation and flushing out waste and toxins.

Aside from the skin benefits of a facial—the treatment is also relaxing and healing, making it the ultimate de-stressor. Think of facials as a treat for your skin and your soul.

Investing in your skin is more valuable than one can imagine. After one facial treatment, you will walk out with a glowing complexion, but with a regular treatment plan, you will maintain healthy, youthful, glowing skin. Think of it this way—your skin plays a significant role in your life, physically and mentally. It dictates how you see yourself and how you feel. So, treat your skin (facials), protect your skin (SPF), and you'll always love the skin you're in.
