What does a facial do for the skin and is it beneficial for everyone?

I have sensitive skin, but would like to treat myself to a facial. Is this recommended even though I have sensitive skin and have never had a facial before? What types of things does a facial entail?What does a facial do for the skin and is it beneficial for everyone?
Yes you would be a perfect candidate for a facial. A facial cleanses the skin, removes dead skin cells and deeply hydrates the skin, it helps to regulate sebum production and increases blood flow etc. It is very beneficial. A regular Deep Cleansing Facial (1 hour) consists of the following:


*Cleansing of your skin, twice


*Skin examined under a magnifiying lamp to work out which products would be best to use on you


*Exfoliate with steam


*20 minute face neck and decolletage massage


*15 minute mask


* Serum, eye, neck and day cream applied.





The above can vary slightly depending on the line of products which the salon uses and the therapists techniques.





Often sensitive skin can be very dry so it is recommended to have a facial- not may people have true sensitive skin (in Beauty Therapist terms) but have slight sensitivities to various products. Still ensure that you tell the therapist that you have sensitive skin, to prevent any breakouts and to make sure that the correct products are used. Make sure that they only use a non abrasive exfoliant on you - preferably a Gommage or Bio Peel where they do not need to rub in or use any friction on your skin. I would recommend either going to a salon which uses natural products or going to one which uses a trusted brand such as ';Sothys'; as they have great senstive product lines.

A facial generally consist of exfoliating the dead skin cells away, deep cleaning of the pores for any blackheads, solution to resurface %26amp; even out skin tone (which may be the exfoliant product), %26amp; then moisturizing. It is always beneficial to keep up a good skin care regimen which should consist of using products on a regular basis at home to improve skin %26amp; keep it looking fresh. If you are having a professional facial, when you speak to the Salons, ask them what they offer for persons with sensitive skin %26amp; discuss your options.
My sister does skincare. She has lots of clients that come in of all ages that have sensitive skin or acne. Facials are great for everyone. She even has lots of men that are clients. They can do so many different treatments for different skin types and problems. All make your skin feel great. Usually with a facial, they will give you some sort of mask and a neck and upper back massage. They can also do extractions to remove blackheads and other bumps. Try it!
I will give you advice without trying to sell you any products. From experience with VERY sensitive skin, i use what a dermatologist recommended; Cetaphil... you can get it in your groc. store or Walmart. It costs about nine something for a 16 Oz. bottle that last me a couple months with two people using it twice a day. Most products saying they are for sensitive skin will have a small amount of fragrance in them. You DO NOT want fragrance in your skin care products (even in small amounts) if you have sensitive skin. A facial will help keep your skin clean and your pores small.
Yes u can undergo facial...Just tell the aesthetician or dermatologist that u have sensitive skin b4 they do anything to your skin...


Facial consist of different steps, the higher the price of the facial the more complicated the procedures. But generally, they just clean your face, moisturize it, exfoliate it ( not necessarily in order) and it depends on how perfect your skin is.
