How Are Facials Performed?

Facials might sound like a piece of cake. It’s just a bunch of products being rubbed on your face, isn’t it? Well, no.

At Andersonlake, a facial involves a proper aesthetic and skin care treatment that requires knowledge about facial anatomy and the right techniques to do it. Our steps include taking your input first so that you get to enjoy everything as expected. The important steps here involve:

1. Consultation

Consultation is an extremely important step that assists your facialist in understanding your skin and guides you through the process necessary to rejuvenate it and make it healthier. Our experts will start by getting to know your daily routine, the food you consume, and the amount of water you drink.

We will also ask personal questions related to your health and skin conditions. This also helps us know how often should you get a facial. If you want a personalized facial, you must tell us everything so that we can plan accordingly.

2. Cleansing And Exfoliation

Facials start with a light cleansing where we apply a small amount of cleanser on your face and massage it gently. We massage in different strokes around your eyes, around your lips, up and down your nose, and along your forehead, jaw, and neck. This removes dirt and excess oil from your skin.

For exfoliation, we either use light exfoliators or facial scrubs. The product is composed of beads that aid in the removal of dead skin cells, blackheads, and whiteheads from your face.

3. Steaming And Extraction

Following exfoliation, your face is steamed up through a steamer. The steam can open clogged pores. The heat also dilates your vessels. Blood flow will increase, which will make it easier to remove all the toxins from your skin.

After steaming up your face, a tool is used to extract blackheads and whiteheads from your face. We know it hurts a bit. But we promise to take care of your face and you by using gentle pressure during extractions. Yes, exactly the way we perform tooth extractions too!

4. Mask And Serums

Before finishing up the facial, it is important to make sure your skin is deeply cleansed. For this, different kinds of facial masks are used. It depends on the condition of your skin. Some people prefer a generic hydrating mask, while others ask for chemical peels.

To seal the deal, we finish by putting a serum on your face. We pat it lightly so that your skin can absorb the serum completely.
