While there are several different types of facials that each provide unique benefits to your face, they all generally work to exfoliate, hydrate, and rejuvenate your skin. In so doing, they can improve the health of your skin and take care of many of those pesky skin issues that pop up day after day around the face, neck, and décolleté areas. The end result of facials is often a smoother and brighter complexion.

With that being said, you may be looking for a more specific response to the question of what facials can do for your face. If so, some other examples of what facials can do for the skin around your face, neck, and décolleté are listed as follows:

• Boosted collagen production, which is essential to your skin’s structural integrity and elasticity
• Clearing up clogged pores
• Improved tone and texture
• Increased blood flow and circulation to the skin around your face, neck, and décolleté
• Reduced fine lines and wrinkles
• Removed dead skin cells, oil, and bacteria from your skin
• Treatment of skin issues such as acne, acne scarring, blackheads, dehydration, inflammation, loss of elasticity and firmness, pimples, redness, rosacea, sun damage, sunspots, whiteheads, or wrinkles

Most skin experts agree that individuals should get a facial once per month to reap the maximum benefits of this skin treatment. With that being said, factors such as availability and financial considerations will ultimately have a say in the frequency with which any individual gets a facial.

The primary reason that once a month is an ideal frequency for getting a facial is that your skin cell turnover cycle lasts for 28 days. As such, getting a facial done more than once per month could cause skin irritation and unsavory results.

As such, whether you get a facial once per month, every other month, or whenever you get a chance to come in, our professional estheticians at La Vie Medspa will be there to provide high-quality facials to you!

Facials often provide an immediate healthy glow to your skin that typically lasts for approximately two to three days after treatment. However, they also offer longer-term benefits for the health and appearance of your skin, as the influx of collagen and elastin helps with cellular regeneration to provide you with younger, healthier, and fresher-looking skin. This cellular regeneration process typically lasts between one to two months. Moreover, the results from a facial will last longer if you maintain a healthy skincare routine before and after getting a facial.

While facials cannot prevent aging signs on the skin entirely, they can keep them at bay and help minimize their impact with effective and long-lasting results.
