Extend Your Facial Results

Why is it important to pair treatments with a custom at-home regimen?

Professional facials do more than just pamper your skin—they create the ideal foundation for your at-home skincare routine to actually work. Facials remove the buildup that can block your products from fully absorbing by deeply cleansing the pores, exfoliating dead skin cells, and boosting circulation. Think of it like clearing a path—when your skin is freshly exfoliated and professionally prepped, your serums, moisturizers, and treatments can penetrate more deeply and effectively.

Regular facials also help rebalance your skin, so it's more receptive to active ingredients without irritation. Whether you're targeting hydration, acne, aging, or dullness, facials essentially "tune up" your skin, allowing your at-home routine to deliver better, faster results. It's the difference between just applying products... and actually getting results from them.

While professional treatments can give your skin a great jumpstart, an at-home routine helps maintain, protect, and enhance those results for long-lasting benefits. Tailoring both to your skin’s specific needs ensures you’re taking the best care possible.

1. Enhanced Results: Professional treatments like facials, chemical peels, or dermaplaning can give your skin an immediate boost, but the results can be short-lived if not maintained at home. A tailored skincare routine ensures that the benefits of these treatments are prolonged and optimized over time.
   
   
2. Consistency: Professional treatments are typically done once a month or periodically, but your skin needs consistent care every day. A custom at-home regimen helps maintain the improvements made during treatments, addressing your skin's specific needs on a daily basis.
   
   
3. Targeted Care: A custom at-home regimen is designed to target your unique skin type and concerns, whether it's acne, dryness, pigmentation, or aging. By using the right products, you can support your skin's health between treatments and make progress toward your skin goals.
   
   
4. Preventative Maintenance: Regular use of effective at-home products helps prevent future skin issues by keeping your skin balanced and healthy. This can reduce the frequency of issues like breakouts, premature aging, or dryness, making professional treatments more effective.
   
   
5. Improved Skin Health: At-home products work to build and support the skin barrier, hydration, and overall health, allowing your skin to recover and respond better to professional treatments. For instance, using a moisturizer or serum with the right ingredients will keep your skin hydrated and ready for more intensive treatments.

How Often Should You Get Facials?

The ideal frequency for facial treatments varies depending on your skin type, goals, and lifestyle. Here are some general guidelines to help you determine how often you should schedule a facial:

• Normal to Oily Skin: Every 4–6 weeks.
  
  
• Dry or Sensitive Skin: Every 6–8 weeks.
  
  
• Anti-Aging: Monthly facials are ideal for maintaining youthful skin.
  
  
• Occasional Facials: Every 3-4 months for a refresh.
