We love a good daily skincare routine. We believe that consistent, daily practice is essential to maintaining the condition of your skin. (And, we’re not ones to say no to a little everyday pampering!)

But, sometimes, we run into issues that we cannot address at home and we need to turn to the experts for professional treatments. Facial treatments such as chemical peels, microdermabrasion or laser re-surfacing can yield dramatic results – especially when incorporated with your regular skincare routine.

When designing your ideal skincare routine, it’s important to work with a medial aesthetician that you trust and that will take the time to understand your unique skincare concerns. If you’re like us, you could be dealing with a mix of skin conditions, such as fine lines, acne and acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, rosacea, dryness and others.

Along with your everyday skin care routine, here are some benefits you could enjoy from regular professional facial treatments.

Less acne scarring

Professional treatments like chemical peels and laser treatments work to even out your skin tone, which means that scarring from environmental stresses and acne scars are less visible. You can expect your skin’s color and texture to see an overall improvement. Treatments can also help prevent further acne scarring due to reduction of breakouts.

Recommended chemical peels are: VI Peel

Visible wrinkle reduction

Stripping off the top layer of skin will allow more evenly textured skin to come to the surface, causing fine lines and wrinkles to seem less prominent. Treatments like microdermabrasion, microneedling, microcurrent or an anti-aging facial can cause collagen production to kick up which restores skin cells further defending against wrinkles.

Even skin tone

If your skin has scars from surgeries, wrinkles, or sun spots, a regular regimen of facial treatments such as chemical peel designed to treat pigmentation can help even out your coloring so that such damage is not so noticeable. Plus, an evened skin tone can give you the freedom to breakup with your heavy foundation. Peels great for treating pigmentation are VI Peel, Melanage peel and jessner’s peel are all great options. IPL can also be used to treat sun spots.

Unclogged pores

Dirt, oil, and dead skin cells clog up your pores and cause them to be more visible to the human eye. Having regular facials with extraction, a chemical peel or microdermabrasion and chemical peel combination can help to decongest your pores and keep them that way.  Unclogging pores helps prevent acne breakouts. Chemical peel options for unclogging pores:  VI Peel

Sensitive skin

Facial treatments for calm and sooth the skin from conditions such as rosacea or overly treated skin are soothing facial with a calming mask and even laser facial. These treatments help to restore the epidermal barrier. These can restore, replenish and rejuvenate.

Therapy for pre-cancerous conditions

Research has shown that chemical peels, along with other facial-resurfacing techniques, help prevent skin cancers by treating precancerous conditions such as actinic keratosis, which is an early stage of squamous cell carcinoma. Thus, regular facial treatments can be a tool in your fight against skin cancer.

Rejuvenated appearance

While getting rid of dead skin cells, laser treatments, chemical peels and regular facials stimulate the production of collagen, which helps reveal new skin that looks and feels smoother and newer. Your skin looks revitalized and refreshed.

More effective daily care

Once you’ve had a facial treatment, you’ve removed icky bits that have been clogging your pores. This means that your regular skin products – moisturizers, creams, serums, and lotions – will be more easily absorbed, and are now more effective.

A fresh, healthy glow

Regular microdermabrasions and chemical peels strip away the top layer of skin, which is full of dead skin cells, to improve its appearance. These treatments can reduce the appearance of wrinkles, sun damage, and more, so that your skin becomes more luminous and healthy-looking.

Feeling good

There’s nothing like the feeling that you’re healthy and putting your best face forward. Having regular facial treatments helps you radiate confidence and makes you feel fantastic.
