FAQs
1. What is a consultation, and why is it necessary?
A consultation is a thorough assessment of your skin and health history to ensure the chosen treatment is suitable and safe for you. It helps identify any contraindications and tailor the facial to your specific needs.
2. How often should I get a facial?
The frequency of facials depends on your skin type and concerns. Generally, every 4-6 weeks is recommended to maintain healthy skin, but your esthetician can provide a personalized recommendation.
3. Are facials safe for all skin types?
Most facials are safe for all skin types, but a consultation is required to determine the best treatment for your specific skin condition and to avoid any adverse reactions.
4. What should I expect during a facial?
During a facial, you can expect deep cleansing, exfoliation, extraction (if needed), face massage, and the application of masks and serums. Your esthetician will customize the treatment based on your skin’s needs.
5. How should I prepare for a facial?
Avoid wearing makeup, exfoliating 3-5 days prior to appointment, heavy skincare products on the day of your facial. Inform your esthetician of any skin concerns or conditions, and follow any specific pre-treatment instructions provided.
6. Can I wear makeup after a facial?
It's generally best to wait 24 hours after a facial before applying makeup to allow your skin to fully benefit from the treatment and reduce the risk of irritation. Some treatments may require a longer wait time and your esthetician will provide post-care instructions.
7. How long do facial results last?
Results can vary depending on the type of facial and your skin’s condition. Typically, you may see immediate improvements, but for long-term results, regular treatments and a proper at-home skincare routine are recommended.
8. Are there any side effects?
Most facials are gentle and have minimal side effects. However, you may experience temporary redness, flaking , sensitivity, and swelling. Your esthetician will provide aftercare instructions to help manage any minor side effects.
9. What is the difference between a facial and a peel?
A facial is a comprehensive treatment that includes cleansing, exfoliation, and hydration. A peel specifically uses acids or enzymes to exfoliate and improve skin texture. Both can be used together for enhanced results.
10. How do I choose the right facial for me?
Your esthetician will recommend the best facial based on your skin type, concerns, and goals discussed during the consultation.
