What to Expect During a Basic Facial
At Medicis Medical Spa, the basic facial begins with a skin analysis to determine which creams, masks, and serums are necessary for your skin. The esthetician will ask questions about your:
- Diet
- Current medications
- Allergies
- Medical conditions
- Lifestyle
- Sleep habits
- Recent plastic surgeries or cosmetic procedures
- Activity level
- At-home skin care routine
- Stress level
- Past skin reactions
- Expectations for treatment
The esthetician will then apply a face mask, perform a facial massage, and apply eye cream and a serum to pamper the skin.
How Often You Should Get a Facial
Though there is no correct answer to how often you should get a facial, the answer could depend on the following factors:
- Your Skin Type. Oily and acne-prone skin may need a facial once every two weeks until the skin becomes healthy. If you have combination, dry, or normal skin then consider getting a facial once every month.
- Your Skin’s Condition. Skin plagued by blackheads, acne, hyperpigmentation, and other health conditions may need more frequent treatment.
- Skin Care Goals. If you’d like to delay the signs of aging and enjoy younger looking skin, then you should consult with your esthetician for facial routine recommendations.
- Your Budget. The cost of facials can vary depending on the esthetician’s experience, the products used, and your skin care needs. Speak to an esthetician to find a solution that works for you.
