Facial skin treatments cleanse, exfoliate, and nourish the skin to promote clear and healthy skin.
There are different variations of face skin treatments available to address a variety of skin concerns. These include Skinwave Hydrogen treatment, Microdermabrasion, and the Fire & Ice Facial.
Facials are one of the most common spa treatments and are only second to massage. When facials are used as a regular part of your skincare routine they can drastically improve the appearance of your skin and minimize signs of aging.
Did You Know?
Your skin constantly sheds dead cells and can shed about 30,000 to 40,000 cells every minute. The skin is also home to more than 1,000 species of bacteria. These are two reasons why having a skincare routine is important to maintain your skin’s health and appearance.
Skinwave Hydrogen Treatment
Skinwave facial treatment is a dermal infusion, hydrogen-based facial that simultaneously hydrates the skin while diminishing signs of aging. During a Skinwave treatment, the outer layer of skin is exfoliated while alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), beta-hydroxy acid (BHA), hyaluronic acid, and hydrogen are infused into the deeper layers of the skin.
During a Skinwave treatment, you can expect contouring facial rollers to massage your face and relax the facial muscles. This will also stimulate lymphatic drainage to combat internal and external impurities. As the rollers are moved over your face, an electrical pulse hand piece will open your pores and allow the acidic solution to be absorbed by your skin. The entire procedure only takes about 20 minutes and does not cause significant discomfort.
Microdermabrasion
Diamond-peel microdermabrasion is a non-invasive skin resurfacing procedure that uses laser-cut diamond tips to remove dead skin cells, while stimulating the production of new skin cells through a vacuum control. The combination of pressure and vacuum forces allows your provider to personalize your treatment for your unique skin type.
During a microdermabrasion procedure, you can expect to have your face thoroughly cleansed, then an activating serum will be applied to stimulate the skin. The microderm handpiece will then be moved across the skin to contour the face. This is repeated about 5-6 times and the skin will be cleansed again to remove dead skin cells. The entire treatment takes about 10-15 minutes and generally does not cause any significant discomfort.
Fire and Ice Facial
The Fire and Ice Facial starts off with diamond-peel microdermabrasion treatment. After the diamond-peel microdermabrasion treatment has been completed and the face has been washed, then the Fire and Ice Facial starts with an application of the “Fire”. The “Fire” in our Fire and Ice Facial is our iS Clinical Glycolic Peel, which is used to remove more dead skin cells and brighten your complexion. The peel will remain on your skin for about 3-5 minutes before it is neutralized with our cleansing complex. The cleansing complex is then removed and the “Ice” is applied. The “Ice” in our Fire and Ice facial is our iS Clinical Rejuvenating Mask, which adds hydration to the skin. The mask will also remain on your skin for 3-5 minutes before being removed.
Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning is a highly effective skincare procedure that focuses on exfoliating the outermost layer of your skin while also removing fine facial hairs. This process helps to eliminate dead skin cells and vellus hairs, often referred to as “peach fuzz.” The result is a noticeably smoother and more radiant complexion. By exfoliating and promoting skin renewal, dermaplaning not only enhances skin tone and texture but also plays a crucial role in improving the absorption of skincare products.
Beyond its exfoliating benefits, dermaplaning has gained popularity for its ability to prepare the skin for other treatments and procedures. It creates a clean canvas, ensuring that subsequent products, such as serums or moisturizers, can penetrate the skin more deeply and effectively. This non-invasive technique is a go-to choice for those seeking a fresh and revitalized appearance without the downtime associated with more invasive procedures.
