How can I tell if I have healthy skin?
If your skin is healthy, your face will have:
- Even color: Blotchiness, spots, and dark circles can be signs of unhealthy skin.
- Smooth Texture: Acne, pimples, and bumps may indicate unhealthy skin.
- Hydration: Dry, flaky skin can signal a problem.
- Normal sensations: Itchy or burning skin is not a good sign.
Recent changes in skin’s characteristics can also indicate that you have unhealthy skin.
Why should I consider getting a facial?
A facial can help rejuvenate tired-looking skin. Also, regular facials can result in clearer and healthier skin. As an added bonus, a facial is very relaxing, since it includes a professional facial massage.
When you get a facial from an esthetician, she can examine your skin for issues and help you design an at-home skin care regimen that will keep your skin looking refreshed and healthy longer.
How often should I get a facial?
Because your skin cells typically recycle about every 28 days, it is recommended that you get a facial once a month. A monthly facial will provide you with a deep cleansing of your pores and a skin toning.
