Facials are more than an hour of indulgent pampering. They provide a large amount of positive health and wellness to your skin. This will provide great benefits to you in both the short and long term. Just like with anything else we maintain in our lives, our skin needs to be one of them. One of the more vulnerable times in our lives is when seasons change or when weather becomes either very humid or very dry. Below are reasons why you should get facials on a regular basis.

1. Get the Most out of Your Skincare
   Clogged pores and a ruddy complexion work against efforts to take care of your skin. Even the highest quality creams and serums won’t be as effective if you suffer from excess dryness, uneven tone or free-radical congestion.
2. Extraction For Clear Pores
   Ever removed blackheads, pores or pimples?! Well, unfortunately, if done improperly can lead to facial scarring, broken capillaries and acne flare-ups. The removal is a delicate procedure that must be done hygienically and carefully. By removing the buildup in your pores, your skin will be able to breathe better, appear healthy and have less breakouts. A trained esthetician is the best person for the job.
3. Seasonal Skin Changes
   Especially in the north, weather is unpredictable and changes regularly. In the winter, you need a heavily hydrated facial to restore lost moisture, whereas a facial in the summer works against sun-damaged skin. A facial in the spring helps to reenergize the face after battling the winter cold, and finally a fall facial will prepare your face and complexion for the winter months to come.
4. Masks and Peels for a Healthy Complexion
   During a facial, your skin is steamed which open pores, have them extracted and then a mask or two. The mask is there to calm, hydrate and remove congestion from the skin.
5. Immediate Results
   Facials, when completed by a licensed professional esthetician, can give your skin instant results. If its shortly before a big event or your wedding and your complexion is falling short, you can give it a blast of radiant glow or its young glow restored.
6. Massage for Lymphatic Drainage
   Professionally done facials include face, décolletage and scalp massage. This provides deep relaxation and promote lymphatic drainage. This gets rid of toxins and reduces fluid retention and in turn promotes circulation.
7. Deep Cleansing
   Deep-cleansing facials thoroughly removing dirt and oil build-up without drying the skin. Proper cleansing will refine your pores and energize your complexion.
8. Get to Know Your Skin
   Our aesthetician will first assesses your skin. By diagnosing common skin issues, she can advise you on what products you should and shouldn't be using for your skin. There may be products you are currently using that cause irritation. Plus keep in mind that your skin is constantly changing.
9. Leave it to a Professional
   Estheticians are trained to find and treat complex skin issues. Recurring skin concerns can be kept under control with regular facials.
10. Professional Strength Exfoliation
    We are bombarded daily with toxins, UV rays and crud that cause our skin to look ruddy and congested. Professional strength exfoliation like microdermabrasion or fruit acid peels effectively remove dead skin cells and promote healthy cell turnover when used regularly. Over time, professional exfoliating methods can also help to diminish acne and other facial scarring.
11. Home Skincare Guidance
    Estheticians know about skincare – they know what works, and what doesn’t. After assessing your skin, a professional can help set you up with the right products to use at home. By getting to know your skin over time, she can monitor any changes, making sure you continue to use the right products or suggesting others based on your skin’s changing needs.
12. Alleviate Stress
    Life is very busy, and has little mercy on what it does to you. It is imperative that we make time to do something that will alleviate stress and help us regain balance. Spending an hour in a peaceful, relaxing environment can help restore balance to your mind, as well as your skin.
13. Anti-Aging
    We're not getting any younger! Buy why show it? By getting regular facials, we promote cell turnover, boost collagen production and maintain healthy skin balance–all of which are great anti-aging remedies.
14. Teenagers Need Help Too
    Teenagers struggle with acne and tend to have poorly executed skincare routines. Regular facials can help manage skin oils that teens experience due to fluctuating hormones.
