A facial is the go-to spa treatment for patients who not only want to address skin concerns, but also enjoy a relaxing, soothing experience. Simply lying back and closing your eyes while a professional pampers your skin can leave you feeling like a whole new you. But not all facials are the same. The best facial is always one that is tailored to your particular skin type and concerns. Balance MedSpa is proud to offer several different kinds of facials, each with its own benefits. Here’s a closer look at four of our most popular facials.
Steam and Extractions
Do you struggle with clogged pores or blackheads? Maybe you’ve been told that your skin is congested, or that you have “large pores.” In this case, our practitioners are likely to recommend steam and extractions. This popular facial procedure starts with the use of steam to soften and loosen the contents of your pores. Patients find this part deeply relaxing, often comparing it to the feeling they get when taking a hot, steamy shower.
Once the steam has worked its magic, your practitioner will use gentle extraction techniques to remove the excess sebum and dead skin cells that are clogging your pores. This will leave your skin looking smoother and more even, and it can also help prevent breakouts in the weeks to come.
It’s important to note that professional extractions are much safer and easier on the skin than at-home extractions or pimple popping. Our practitioners use specialized, sanitized equipment to prevent infection and minimize skin damage.
Balance Signature Facial
Our Balance Signature Facial is a favorite among patients of all ages and with a variety of skin concerns. It starts with our steam and extraction procedure, which helps rid your pores of dead skin cells, excess sebum, and various toxins. Then, once your pores are clear, we apply a customized face mask. Patients often find that lying back with a refreshing mask on their face helps reduce their stress levels and make them feel cared for, mentally and physically.
One of the best things about our Balance Signature Facial is the fact that we can customize it according to your particular needs. For example, if you have dry skin, we can use a hydrating mask that leaves your skin supple and elastic. If you have oily skin, we can use a mask with ingredients that help moderate oil production. We even have masks that help firm and tone skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
HydraFacial
If you struggle with dry skin, thinning skin, or a dull complexion, you truly can’t go wrong with a HydraFacial. This incredible facial procedure uses the latest technology to refresh your skin and produce a healthy glow. Your practitioner will use a wand-like suction tool to exfoliate your skin and remove dead skin cells. This is a gentle exfoliation method and will not be painful or uncomfortable.
After your skin has been adequately exfoliated, we’ll use an intense moisturizer to nourish the fresh, new skin that has been revealed. Not only will this give you a glowing look, but it will help keep your skin healthy and supple in the weeks that follow. Finally, we’ll apply a specialized, antioxidant-rich treatment to protect your skin and ensure your glow lasts as long as possible.
When needed, we can add one or more enhancements to your HydraFacial. For example, some patients benefit from a Dermaplaning add-on to improve skin texture. Others like the DermaBuilder booster serum to help revitalize the skin and improve elasticity and tone. We also offer LED light therapy, Britenol booster serum, and Growth Factor booster serum, among others.
Back Clarifying Facial
It’s common for patients with congested facial skin to also struggle with clogged pores and breakouts along their back. If you’re concerned about the skin on your back, our practitioners will likely suggest a Back Clarifying Facial. Using the same gentle steam procedure we use on your face, we’ll loosen and soften the contents of the blocked pores on your back. Then, we’ll gently extract any blackheads, whiteheads, and other blemishes.
Our back clarifying facial ends with a clarifying masque. Not only does this help purify the skin and remove toxins, but it also soothes the skin and helps prevent future breakouts. Patients often report feeling more comfortable in bathing suits and more revealing clothing after this facial.
If one of these facials sounds enticing, get in touch with the experts at Balance MedSpa. Our experienced practitioners can assess your skin and recommend the facial that will benefit you the most. You’ll emerge not only looking your best, but also feeling your best.
